He’s doing what?

Sure you've all seen Sarah Silverman's "I'm F@#king Matt Damon" video, but have you seen Jimmy Kimmel's response? It's fantastic, just ask Don Cheadle.

I’d eat this planet too

I think I can confidently say that Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I'd also like to say that I only watched it against my will.

Head tracking with the Wiimote

Okay this is friggin cool. And watch the whole thing too… The first two minutes is like "yeah, so?" but it leads up to something really kind of awesome.

Introducing Ivory Mahjongg

Ivory Classic TilesetAbout a year ago I went looking for a decent, free Mahjongg Solitaire game to download, and I realized that all of the good ones cost money. So Jeremy and I thought that maybe someone should write one that's free and doesn't suck. Someone being us. It's called Ivory Mahjongg, and is available for Windows and MacOS. Now, I can only take credit for the look of the game, and the website design & markup; all of the programming was Jeremy.

The touch is my master now…

I haven't posted in a while. I can give you two solid reasons. One is that I got a new iPod touch, that's lots of fun to play with, and the other is that Mario Galaxy came out, and I am a total dork. But damn if it isn't a good time.

Coolest thing about the iPod? Emailing from it. Oh, and the Google Maps app. Yeah, that's right, I hacked it.

Long Way Down

Long Way DownI found out recently that Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman just completed another epic motorcycle road trip from Scotland to South Africa. Their first journey was back in 2004 when they rode around the world in 115 days on two BMW R1150 GS bikes. They filmed the entire experience and made a TV series called Long Way Round. It was a fantastic show, and I’ve watched it all the way through several times. It was funny, poignant, dramatic and suspenseful, and you don’t have to be interested in motorcycles to enjoy it. It’s a DVD box set that’s well worth checking out, and I can’t wait for the next series, slated to come out in October.
