Three years ago today, at 11:48pm, I wrote these amazingly insightful words: Check it out… Friday, December 9th, 2005 Looks like I am officially blogging. I am too cool for words. (Ironic, isn’t it.) Thusly did this, my first blogging experience, begin. Pretty sad, really, but there you have it. Now here we are, three years and over 400 posts later, and I figure it’s about time I looked back to see if I’ve ever . . . → Read More: Three years of yammering on…  7 comments  Comics, Corporate world, Learning, Movies & TV, music, Other, Parenting, Personal finance, Reviews, Sci-fi, Technology  Comics, corporate training, Corporate world, crusade, doctor who, e-learning, Eckhart Tolle, free, heroes, instructional design, justice league, Learning, Oprah, Parenting, Personal finance, podcasting, Reviews, Sci-fi, Spider-Man, Superman, Technology, tv I was giving Heroes the benefit of the doubt. Sure, they’d stumbled. The brother/sister Mexican road trip last season was a big mistake. This season was an improvement for a while (well, it had promise, anyway), but there have been noticeable issues. But I was willing to gloss over them because I like the characters, and I still think the story has potential. This week, they lost me. And Hiro is the most obvious example . . . → Read More: “Heroes” hits bottom and grabs for the shovel 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? Star Wars: The Clone Wars | Star Wars: The Clone Wars In Theaters and on Television in 2008 The Clone Wars animated series is going to start with a theatrical release!
This is great news. To be honest, it’ll be a little weird to see an animated Star Wars on the big screen, and it’s a bit of an odd idea to launch a TV show with a theatrical pilot (though there . . . → Read More: Send In The Clones!!!! I don’t understand. NBC Universal is canceling three of the best Sci-Fi shows in recent memory. Journeyman, The 4400, and The Dead Zone are all goners. What’s the deal?! All three of those shows were good and getting better! The last I heard, there was talk of giving The Dead Zone a final 7th season to wrap everything up, and it certainly looked like the stories were headed in that direction. The 4400 looked like . . . → Read More: NBC Universal nailing the coffin shut on Sci-Fi Quicktime trailerI post this in remembrance of a hapless rabbit in a very early Simpsons episode. (Mike, you’ll know exactly the scene I’m talking about when you reach the end of this trailer.) Click through the link above and watch the trailer for Will Smith’s new superhero comedy, due out in summer 2008.

In the face of a dearth of available programming due to the writer’s strike, this just seems to me to be one of the most boneheaded things I’ve ever heard. Even if you’re not particularly in favor of the show, if you’ve got . . . → Read More: NBC is sharpening its axe I’ll be jotting down my initial thoughts of the shows I watch that premiere this week. Tonight, I intended to watch the NBC shows Chuck, Heroes, and Journeyman. I missed Chuck, but taped it so I may comment on it later. Heroes: I loved season 1. This episode had a hard job in picking up and reintroducing a large cast of characters, plus adding new ones. As a result, this would likely have confused anyone . . . → Read More: Initial thoughts – Premiere week pt 1 I’m reading a lot more comics/graphic novels now than I ever have. Sadly, that’s not saying much, since I only read individual unconnected issues at a time – I never really read a full storyline until a year or so ago, save for one or two “special occasions.” Now, though, I’m borrowing stuff from a few friends’ collections, and I’m loving it. I’m reading a pretty wide variety of stuff (standard superhero fare, TV show . . . → Read More: An attache case, an underground government, and a Spider-Man on the edge This weekend I saw Spider-Man 3. Before I got to the theater, I’d been hearing all week from critics and friends that it was “okay” or it “wasn’t as good as the other two.” Some people went so far as to totally bash it. I tried not to listen. I wanted to go in with only my own fears and expectations about whether director Sam Raimi and his team could pull off the tri-fecta.
