Update

( Picture book version. )

Beyond that... Lessee, spent two hours learning to play tennis, which was fun, and consequently another six or so hours talking political science, urban planning, religion and other such things with Joanna, which was also fun.

More dabbling with Photoshop, though I need to give that a lot more time. I'm still trying to put together a proper portfolio I can use to convince (sucker) people I'm not a hack.

Also, Thursday concluded the Drow portion of Steve's game, and this time ended up being quite fun, as opposed to the somewhat disappointing (for me) previous game.

Anyone interested in legal services (or Adult Swim) needs to call 1 877 MANBIRD.

Finally, I still think Shego is the bomb. (That's what I get for watching late night TV.)

The Island

Saw The Island. I liked it, though it had by far the most obscene amount of product placements I've ever seen. The costume design was nice, the sets were pretty neat in their futuristic character, and the visuals were impressive. Admittedly, a lot of the visual appeal was good use of testosterone-laden boilerplate; the scenes, the lighting tricks and so forth were ones one's used to seeing in the Matrix series, Bruckheimer productions or any of Cameron's movies. Although the plot dabbles somewhat with medical ethics and can raise a few questions if one bothers to think about it, it wasn't particularly deep and certainly wasn't either belieavable or watertight. But even so, the result really appealed to me. And I want to get a set of those rags!
