I saw the Indy movie last night, and it rocked! There were a lot of doubts with this movie, but it’s packed full of entertainment! It doesn’t quite hold a candle to the previous Indy films, but I still recommend it anyways!
Plus, they’ve recently discovered the secret lyrics John Williams wrote for the theme. Click Here.
Also, I’ve always had a thing for Cate Blanchett, so this movie gets extra points from me.

Closer to what you ask? Well, probably not, but I’m going to tell you anyways: Being debt free!
Yes, today I paid off my last remaining balance on my credit card! Well, one of my cards, but this means I no longer carry any balance on any of my cards. Of course, I was so foolish before to do such a thing, but I took the time and sacrifice to pay it off. Now, I only have one more manageable loan remaining, that it itself is being aggressively paid off.
Now, I’ve been able to increase my RRSP contribution and my monthly savings. Now, the monthly savings I have is for emergency money. Once I get to a point where I have 3 months worth of expenses covered, I’m going reallocate my contributions back over to my debt to pay it off even faster!
Once that’s all done, I’ll be laughing all the way to the bank, plus I’ll have plenty saved up for a nice down payment on a house or condo. Wooo!!!

I conquered my fear of tomatoes last night! I has bruschetta and it tasted awesome! No longer will I hold the tomato on my sandwiches. No longer will I fear the all mighty red.
If fact, after it was all done, my said fear was rather quite silly. Long live the tomato!!!!!
Update:
Just had an assorted sub with tomatoes!!

After having a fun filled multiplayer GTA IV day will Gwildor, I looked over at my younger neglected console the Wii. I even thought about spinning it up and playing some Mario Kart, but it was a fleeting feeling. I really don’t play it that much at all. In fact, I barely touch my 360, but it has all that rocking multimedia capabilities; I use that on a daily basis! I finally got an Airpot Express, so my box is back on the network. In fact, everything is wireless now!
Anywho, back to the point. It’s not set in stone, I was just doing some thinking. If I am to sell my Wii, it would be for $600. You get the system, two Wii-motes with nunchuks, 6 games and a Wii-mote charging station.
Like I said, not set in stone yet, just thinking about it. The way I am with things is if I don’t find a use for it anymore, I don’t like it taking up space in my apartment. I’m not a big fan of clutter at all.
That’s my two cents.
Update:
$600 seems a bit too much, I’m now going for $500.

Ok, I’m a huuuuge FireFox fan! I absolutely love it and I’ve been using it for years. It was the best experience you can find on the web. Now that Safari has come out with a version 3, it’s been rocking in its own little way.
I’ve been using the FireFox 3 beta for awhile now and am enjoying what it brings to the table, except one thing. Load times. For some crazy reason it just seems to take forever rendering pages. Not all of them, but quite a few. It drives me nuts! Once that happens, I find I can load up Safari and point to that same page and it will be rendered before FireFox is done. Now I know, it’s still in beta, but I’m finding more and more reasons to switch over to Safari.
Sure, it doesn’t have all the security features FireFox has, like anti-phishing, etc. But I’m tech savvy enough to figure out what sites are legit and which aren’t.
I have very few criteria for an excellent browser:
1. Can render all pages properly.
2. Can render extremely fast.
3. Has tabbed browsing (Love that shit!)
That’s all I need. Now I’m not giving up on Firefox; I’m going to wait and see how it performs when fully released, I just may permanently switch over.
Now, this is only for the Mac side, Firefox still rules on my PC. It doesn’t seem to have the same slow rendering problems.

Oh old airport lady. How I am so lucky to know I have you here.
So you see, I must have looked incredibly bored working on my laptop here because old airport lady took it upon herself to save me from my boredom by interrupting me every five minutes to talk me about this “amazing bridge that rises in the air.”
In fact, I really need to thank her. I was so bored that I passed out, but thankfully she was there to wake me to tell me that her grandson travels all over the world. I was quite entertained!
So thank you Old Aiport Lady. Thank you the fuck much!

Here is a wicked photo, plus story to go with it.
I just love Angry Over-reacting people. Once upon a time angry over-reacting people used to make me over-react in an angry way, but I have now found my inner zen; now they just make me laugh. It’s a much much better feeling laughing about it than getting mad. Although, there are still some douche bags that still make me angry (RIAA, MPAA, etc.)

Woohoo!! I got my tax return in the mail the other day and I didn’t spend a dime of it. In fact, I fully paid off a line of credit and a credit card in one shot! Wooo, what a good feeling that is! I’m now that much closer to no debt. :)
On another note, I’m back in Delaware! I know, I should just myself an apartment here since I’ve been down here longer than my new place. Funny thing about this trip is that there is actually some sorta conference going on, so all the hotels in the area were booked solid. Because of that, I’m now staying at the Hotel Dupont, which is the “ritzy” hotel in the area! Woo me! It’s really awesome. Plus, I’ve never seen a hotel with a “bath menu.” That’s right, you can order baths to be made up for you. I think I’m gonna go with the rose-pedal with complimentary champagne bath. ;)
Oh, one last thing… I hate douche bags that use the word kewl in real life.
