Hero – it’s a nice boy notion that the real world’s gonna destroy. – Steve Taylor In the last couple of days I’ve seen two blog entries from totally unrelated blogs about “heroes”. Not the TV show, actual heroes. Our personal heroes. There’s another blog that brings up heroes too, but in a completely different way. The first two blogs are beingfrugal.net and cpyu.org (you may have to scroll to the 3/4/2008 entry). The . . . → Read More: Heroes? I’m currently watching the recorded version of Oprah’s first session of her “class” on A New Earth, which is about “new spirituality”. For the purposes of this post, however, the topic is irrelevant. What I’m interested in is how it’s being pulled off as an example of a massive, live, online facilitated event. This is, I believe, the single largest event of its kind (Oprah says there are over 700,000 people connected to the course), . . . → Read More: Oprah’s Online Training – experience review Just in case you missed it, the direct-to-DVD continuation of the Stargate SG-1 Ori storyline, “The Ark of Truth,” is to be released next Tuesday, March 11th. You can apparently pre-order it from Amazon. If you’re gonna buy it anyway, use this link, and help a brother out… every nickel helps support my wife’s coke habit. (Okay, it’s diet coke, but it’s still expensive in these kinds of quantities…) [tags]stargate, direct-to-dvd[/tags] . . . → Read More: Stargate: The Ark of Truth Smallville will be back for an eighth season next year! But without Lex, and without Lana. Michael Rosenbaum and Kristen Kreuk are calling it quits after this year. Apparently they’re both open for guest spots next year, but that’s it. I’m okay with Lana leaving. I think they’ve milked that character for all it’s worth at this point. Dropping Lex, however, is a potential death knell for viewership. The interplay between Lex and Clark, and . . . → Read More: Smallville, Dr. Who, and Torchwood facts and rumors Uncommon Lifestyles and the Truth About the 4-Hour Workweek: An Interview with Tim Ferriss ∞ Get Rich Slowly This article spurred a long night of reading about virtual personal assistants and other ways of “lightening the load” of some of the tasks we all have to do in our lives. I like the concepts. There are some things I can probably do that would help me make the most of my time. In fact, I . . . → Read More: Outsourcing your life, and the 4 hour work week Literary characters – some obscure, some well known – abound in these graphic novels. The main players (Allan Quartermain, Captain Nemo, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the Invisible Man, and – to a much lesser extent – Mina Harker/Murray) are well established, and the gimmick of putting them together is the initial draw. It took me a little effort to get into the style of faux-1800s dialogue, especially in the narrative boxes, but I quite . . . → Read More: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Vol. 1 and 2 Jim Mirkalami – the actual story revealed – Quit Your Day Job A while ago, I deleted a comment left on an old post. I thought it was Spam, but I wasn’t sure. There was something about it, though, that made me research it a little bit, and I found that it was being left on a lot of blogs, which reinforced the notion that it was spam. The real story has come out now, . . . → Read More: Jim Mirkalami – the actual story revealed – Quit Your Day Job |
