Today I decided to head to that place again where I can grab a bagel and girlie coffee. Though I just grabbed a bagel (blueberry) with raspberry cream cheese and a Dr Pepper (which, I believe, is more a "Roy" drink).

Now its time to just knuckle down on a few projects for work. *rolls up sleeves*

An incredible arrangement of an amazing song... Not sure how long this will be up before it gets yanked but I have a copy I'll put up once it is.

Tip of the Hat to Stephen Colbert for this cracking report



(Give it about 2 seconds for the video image to sort itself at the start)

Check out Jessica on The Late Late Show from February - and boy she looks good knocked up, eh?

Some of the funniest spoofs...

The jaw-dropping MacBook Air commercial never fails to impress. Tonight, whilst the rest of the commercials were boring me I decided to look up a couple of the more recent Apple ads at the actual videos of those catchy tunes. First up, the iPod Nano and the incredible music video from Feist. The MV appears to have been filmed in a single take and showcases some really great choreography.

The Nano Ad:



This is the actual 1-2-3-4 video by Feist:



And the music video from that impressive MacBook Air commercial:

Silly Europeans!

It could be as soon as March 25th but who knows? It is coming soon though so make sure you brush up on all the major changes as this is going to be a huge patch and, unless WotLK is delayed, the last major update before xPac2 (v 3.0).

Not my choice of mobile networks but the commercial is pretty neat.

Hat tip to little bro for sending this to me earlier which kept me chuckling. Brush up on your l33t ninja skillz, yo!

Releases this week and looks pretty mindless and funny...

Life, sometimes, just gets sweeter by the second. This is good because I have also seen it get sour by the second - so this is, f'sure, a tasty turn around and about damn time too! For a little more insight into what I'm babbling about then check out The Project Bowl's new section, Apple Development, to get an idea of what I'm talking about!

This has to be quote of the day:

TV is a wasteland. TV shows off of iTunes will vacuum out your brain as surely as if you had watched them on the tube. Let it go. Read a book. Go to the park. Dance with a beautiful girl, (or an ugly one, depending on personal circumstances). Your life will be much richer.

Yeah. Sorry about that folks! The guild forums are now up & running again but [insert apology] you will need to re-sign up again. Oh well... uh... group hug?

Well... good news and bad news. Some of the Project Bowl Forums took a beating and heads will roll. We have forums for the WoWers going live again shortly but this will be a fresh rebuild. So you will need to recreate your username and password and, yep, those wonderful posts from before are (probably) lost. More will be explained in the forums. For Portal users everything is salvaged, fine and dandy.

The hosting provider and certain maintenance crews have been rebuked and horse-whipped. With pleasure.

Peace!

PS. For those that have emailed me over the weekend - I'll be replying to y'all real soon once my hand warms up. Don't ask! :P

I was a huge fan of Don Adams in the spoof TV show of Get Smart and watching the classic opening credits made me chuckle...



So when I heard that Steve Carell was going to be playing Special Agent Maxwell Smart in the forthcoming movie remake, I was certainly nervous... until I saw the trailer. To me he was typecast into 2 spectacular roles: Brick, from Anchorman and, of course, Michael Scott from The Office. His other roles have, in my mind, just been eye-roll worthy and pretty much meh. This could utterly fail for him (remakes of this kind are rarely win-win) but the fact he actually has such a strong resemblance for Don could just work in his favor. Oh, and also because it also stars the interesting Ann Hathaway who has really begun to make her mark in Hollywood in recent years with movies such as Nicholas Nickleby, Brokeback Mountain and The Devil Wears Prada. Though I'm not a huge fan of her acting on the whole she somehow does manage to pull her roles off and make the movies she is in all the more enjoyable. I'm torn, but I will definitely go and see this movie even if it is just to inspire me to go and buy the boxset of the original series on DVD. Check out the 2008 movie trailer:

Whilst grabbing a snack, checking my WoW mail and getting ready for some sleep, I couldn't help but stumble upon the news from last week (give or take) that Jessica Alba and hubbie, Cash, are going to have twins. If they are girls then they are going to have a lot to live up to... and if they are boys then they are going to have a lot friends who will be voting her for top MILF. Not that I know what that is or anything... just one of those acronyms that the youth of today kick around. Ahem.

Bygones.

Anyway, with the news of Miss Alba I couldn't help but recall this image and thought... what would make a good caption for this? Those two penguins have to have SOMETHING going through their minds!

Sitting in a Panera right now enjoying a caramel latte and bagel with raspberry cream cheese... a good start to the day. I just dropped the little lady off at work and can finally find 5 minutes to catch up on emails, messages and all that other stuff. I only have a few moments though so it is a case of trying to juggle everything at once.

Being back home is amazing - how did we even survive ol' Blighty? The food, the folk, the weather. Well, ok, so it is snowing here but at least it is consistent here! :P

We've been so busy since our return neither of us have been able to sit down and get any serious WoW in. In fact, our first order of business was sorting out a... well, let us call it a Guild Issue which chewed up pretty much the only wow-time we've even had... and part of that took place at nearly 4am!

But we will be back to the virtual world soon - the madness of trying to juggle everything will soon settle and routines will become set again.

Catch y'all soon!
