This...
...is scary to me.

The footage that is.

I tired something new...
...I went to the driving range with my dad today. Well, it went about as well as expected.

Every once and a while I would have a good hit, mainly by using the woods and not the irons. Both from the tee's and off the mat it was about the same.

But I had to try.

Whhhheeeeeee!
I just found XBMC, I found it because I was unhappy with Front Row.

Now exactly an ideal solution, but at least it doesn't put itself to sleep after a couple of songs (but still plays the music just fine, just not display... no power saver features are on and I haven't found any real documentation for it... silly Apple).

I'll play around with it some more to see how much I like it.

I just noticed this on /.

Robot overlord reads Slashdot RSS feed, it adds itself to iTunes.

Neat.

Woo!
Solar power being tested by Enmax

Global morning news also just had a story on it.

Basically the home owner would rent solar panels from Enmax, all of the power generated goes towards the individual home and excess power gets credited back to the home owner (according to Global).

Should be rolled out by 2009.

I wanted to get lost...
...I failed.

A rough idea of the route I took.

Start point: Falconridge Crescent
Next: Falconridge Drive
Next: Falton Drive
Next: Falshire Drive
Next: Across Flashire Park
Next: Falchurch Road
Next: Falworth Road
Next: Falconridge Crescent (some what confused because I didn't recall passing those houses on the way to Falton Drive ... then I realized where I was)
End point: Falconridge Crescent

Total elapsed time: 1.5 hours (left around 12:20, got back home around 14:05)

Now I can have lunch. :)

yup...
I think I want to open the door for people to stop by today... music, beverages, conversation, movies... whatever.

If you have the urge to come on over, feel free.

Rock Star

Yes, yes, I know it's Nickelback, but the cameo's are worth watching.

Great...
I'm watching The Hour is George Stroumboulopoulos with Gordon Ramsay as the guest.

Quite a good interview.

Grab it for free from iTunes Music Store

Confused
I'm a bit confused...

The Juno Reactor album "Bible of Dreams" I haven't been able to encode for 5 years now. I would try in one machine and the program would crap out. I tried it when I bought my iMac, iTunes crapped out on it for the past 3 years (I would try every once and a while because I really, really enjoy listening this album). Since I'm now filling in gaps in my M4A library, I thought I'd give it another shot on my MacBook Pro. It worked.

I'm not asking, but I am appreciating.

I've putting the CDs that don't encode off to the side anyways, just so that I can try them in one of the three computers we have here, it's a small stack, but a stack none the less (the majority are the Mexican bootlegs that Gyda brought home with here over the years).

I had forgotten...
...just how much stuff there is on the intertubes.

I've been browsing the iTunes PODcasts. Mainly the comedic ones, but really that anything that tickles my fancy.

Just in case I wasn't already turning into an insomniac, now I have even more distractions.

It's possible that I should get a wireless mouse and just hook my laptop to the TV on a regular basis... Sure, sure, the resolution isn't great, but really... that's not a huge deal.

Web 2.0 ... The Machine is Us/ing Us

Interesting, but I don't know if I buy it. Too many other factors are involved with making this a wide enough blanket to envelope us all.

Oh my...
...In the movie Hot Rod, there's a riot scene. Just out of nowhere, a riot starts. So very silly...
