the past 2 hrs I've been listening to a Beatles cover band putting on a show across the street from my house. We live in a small town, right in the center. So throughout the Summer there's a free concert series every Thurs night. It's interesting.

There are sooo many SUPERMAN scripts out there, and pre production (if I'm not mistaken) is already in the works for a feature film.

The idea that someone thought Nic Cage would be a great Supes is downright laughable. But it's cool b/c it makes people laugh.

If you like Kevin's Q&A's, check out his appearance on DINNER FOR FIVE; it's good stuff.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, USPS changed their site!


Usually I hate when I a business site I frequent changes it's layout. I like to log into a site and do things 1-2-3. Like eBay for example. How many times I go to My eBay and they had to change it all around. I didn't even bother to learn where stuff is the last time they changed it. It's just annoying. Same goes for pretty much every other business site.

But the new USPS site looks good. Everything appears to be more or less in the same spot, but everything just looks much nicer. It's easier on the eyes. Granted, I only did one thing real fast (schedule a pickup) but it looks pretty good.

That's a big challenge in e-commerce. You need to keep things fresh and change things daily to attract new customers, but old customers want you to keep everything the same. Often it is too difficult to do both.

My hunt for a reasonably-priced Gizmondo system remains fruitless, but I shall press on, for fortune rewards the patient!

I think it is kinda weird that I have to read three TPBs and watch a movie for work-related reasons this evening.

No, 3DO!

And refresh my memory, lisalover1: what is it, exactly, that you're going to be doing with a Gizmondo once you get it?
