Wow, there must be a lot of comments stuck in limbo for Van to claim number 16.
Oh, wait. i see what you did there…….

Morning, Deadpan!
It’s sunny in Longmont, and there’s snow on the peaks. Snow in June!
June 12th, 2008 at 5:25 am
Morning Pan!
Oh, my What’s that big shiny thing in the sky?
June 12th, 2008 at 5:25 am
Yeah, EssBee, we got a bit of snow on the outskirts of the city last night as well. Not uncommon with Calgary.
June 12th, 2008 at 5:35 am
TEB, my partner’s brother and his family live North of Calgary in Hobbema. Do you know it? I’ve only been up there once, in June, but it was beautiful.
June 12th, 2008 at 5:46 am
I know of it, EssBee, and I think I may have driven through it going to Wetaskewin, but beyond that, no. It’s actually closer to Edmonton than to Calgary.
June 12th, 2008 at 5:55 am
Right, that’s it! It is a drive-through type of place! They live on the Cree Reserve.
We hope to visit again some time — maybe when fuel costs decrease a bit, say 2015?
June 12th, 2008 at 6:15 am
Sure, maybe by then, your dollar will be worth more than ours again and you’ll get more bang for your buck that way as well :)

So I just heard an interview with Jamie Bamber (Lee Adama on BSG) and he was asked what was the significance that Tigh impregnated the 6.
His answer was, “the lesson to be learned is you’re never too old or grizzled to be able to hook up with a young super model”
I like that answer :)

I always thought Alanis looked better with short hair. Has nothing to do with the current conversation or her music. Just a personal observation.

In the news today:
WELLINGTON – One of the last shipments to a US research base in Antarctica before the onset of winter darkness was a year’s supply of condoms.
Bill Henriksen, the manager of the McMurdo base station, said nearly 16,500 condoms were delivered last month and would be made available free of charge, to staff throughout the year to avoid potential embarrassment of having to buy them.
The base only has a skeleton staff through the long winter.
“Since everybody knows everyone, it becomes a little bit uncomfortable,” Henriksen told the Southland Times newspaper.
-Calgary Sun
Let’s see… 16,500 divided by 365 is a little over 45 condoms a day for the year. Either a “skeleton staff” is larger than I thought, or they REALLY have little else to do in Antarctica.

Two recommendations:
1. Blade Runner – Director’s Cut
2. The American Way graphic novel
June 16th, 2008 at 10:33 am
Taking a mental break from my deadline. Waiting for a few phone calls.
M. Night movies I liked:
Sixth Sense
Signs
The Lady in the Water
Movies I didn’t like:
Unbreakable
Movies I don’t intend to see:
The Village
The Happening
M. Night’s formula works sometimes and falls flat others. He is one of the few directors where I let the reviews alone decide if I want to see the film or not. I know the spoiler for “The Happening” and I don’t plan on seeing it.
In other news, I’m more than halfway through “The Watchmen” graphic novel.
June 16th, 2008 at 10:50 am
I won’t get started on Bladerunner since I don’t want raise my BP or get into an arguement with JJ.
I see the first episode of True Blood has hit the torrent networks:
http://www.mininova.org/tor/1507818
That’s the series based on Charlaine Harris series novels with Sookie Stackhouse as lead character.
June 16th, 2008 at 11:07 am
I don’t want to start anything, Van! I LOVE those Charlaine Harris books — thanks for the link. I wonder if Evil Empire will notice me sitting here watching.
Rhettro, The American Way is right up your alley if you like Watchmen.
June 16th, 2008 at 11:33 am
Fight! fight! Deckard is NOT a replicant!
That unicorn made perfect sense!
Sorry, I was just trying to start something.
June 16th, 2008 at 11:50 am
Thanks EssBee, I’ll keep a look out for The American Way. I’ve been enjoying Watchmen so far. I picked up a Star Wars graphic novel a couple of weeks ago. I hope to get into it soon as well. Plus, I’ve only watched the Theatrical Release of BR, so far. I need to watch the recently re-edited Director’s Cut. Unicorns mean nothing, but if there were some electric sheep. ;)

I found “6th Sense” enjoyable although I saw the “surprise” coming from about 20 miles away.
I thought “Signs” was enjoyable as well, although just an OK film. I’ve no urge to see it again.
I think “Unbreakable” may be my favorite of all the M films. Seems to me though that there was a movie that came out before this one where A guy survives a plane crash and thinks he can’t be killed. I recall that one being more disconcerting.
Oh … and Van, you come across a turtle in the desert. It’s on it’s back …

You know what would have made “Unbreakable” better? If Sam L. had a robot arm. Just sayin’.
June 16th, 2008 at 2:48 pm
I wasn’t expecting SLJ to be the villain though in Unbreakable.
June 16th, 2008 at 3:10 pm
Van – that was the film I was thinking of. The crash sequence seemed a little too real for my comfort.

So, some time last night, we had a stupid motorcyclist race through our neighbourhood and hit a deer. Apparently he managed to kill the deer and his motorcycle went up in flames but still managed to walk away from the accident himself.
First of all, everybody in our neighbourhood knows to watch out for the deer.
Second, while I like motorcycles, I HATE stupid people on them. It should have been the other way around, with the deer walking away from the accident…. poor thing :(

I know there is the oft misquoted “Play it again, Sam”, but that is wrong. He never said that. The closest was when Ingred Bergman said,
Play it once, Sam. For old times’ sake.”
What Bogart actually said was,

And here comes the gay marriage debate again. Just now, minding my own business going to the fridge for my sweet tea for lunch, I was stopped and asked, “What do you think about all the nonsense going on in California?”
I’m totally out of the closet here at Evil, Inc. My basic philosophy is that if you don’t like me, don’t talk to me, but this is me. I had no idea what to say, so just looked blankly into Presumptuous Co-Workers face with a *blink* *blink*. I grabbed by tea, and came back to my office without responding.
What a dick.
Okay, back to Deadpan. Love, EssBee, AKA the Gayest Fooking Thing on the Deadpan

My two cents worth; Well EssBee, we’ve allowed gay marriage’s here in Canada for a while and, despite predictions of doom and gloom to the contrary, I don’t think it’s affected my hetro-sexual marriage one way or another.
I think, if someone else’s marriage is going to ruin yours, there may have been other problems with the relationship to begin with.

EssBee – not that anyone will likely ask you that same question in that same way again … but if they do “What do you think of that nonsense in California” …
tell them you think it’s pretty good but until you see it go head to head in tournament play with the nonsense from the other states it’s really hard to tell. Word on the street is that the Nonsense in Washington DC has the edge for the final 4 this year.

June 17th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
Well, it probably won’t come a big surprise that I do think what’s going on in California is a bunch of nonsense. But, that’s no doubt a minority view on Deadpan, so I’ll let it be.
June 17th, 2008 at 8:19 pm
…um.
I just had to go do a current affairs search.
Being as out of touch as I am … I assumed the original comments were based on the normal affinity that someone, somewhere always has about something going on in California.
I didn’t realize that there was specific nonsense at this juncture.
Still, in a great big world brimming with nonsense – I think I prefer the kind based in love and human kindness instead of vast cornucopia of nonsense based in hate, greed and or death.
Besides – the Super Volcanos await us all, with their earth shrouding clouds of sulfuric acid, and light reflective ash that will choke millions and cause global famine. Maybe only a few hundred thousand years from now!

Re – Firefox 3
Am I the ONLY one in the Deadpan that cringes when I see that there is a new version of something that I already liked and never even once for a tiny little second thought “Man, I sure wish they would polish this thing because it’s not nearly shiney enough!”
If one were to go back 10 years and plot a graph of –
“software that did exactly what I needed it to do” verses “Time and Money spent having to fix and or undo problems caused when someone decided that the software would also make a dandy desert topping”
The resultant graph would resemble a hand making a rude gesture with it’s middle finger.

Otherwise, I’m quite satisfied with FF.
I haven’t downloaded FF 3 yet (another one I’ll have to download then open instead of installing straight from the website).
Ok, back to reports…
June 18th, 2008 at 6:40 am
Also, occasionally I come across a program that does not work as well with FF. An example is, Screen Monkey prefers Explorer over FF.
(really going to work now)
June 18th, 2008 at 6:47 am
For me at Evil, Inc., I couldn’t host WebEx meetings in FF. Had to use Explorer for that app. Probably evil network settings causing that, so it might not be a FF issue.

JOe: Did you make heavy use of tabbed browsing? I do. My usual style of work is to have several things running at once and move back and forth as needed. In Firefox 2, there was a noted memory problem when you use and close lots of tabs. F3 reportedly has fixed that and improved browsing speed. Both are important to me. I also like the improved security controls.
Unfortunately, there are some broken features that I want to use. Since it is still rather early in the release schedule, I’m hoping they’ll work on fixing them soon.
June 18th, 2008 at 6:51 am
TEB: I never directly install software in that way. There have been many security exploits that have used that tactic.

and, just in defense, like the US, yes our big brewed beer is pretty… weak, but the stuff by the small local breweries is pretty good.

Yeah, anyone that judges Canadian beer solely on the basis of Molson and Labatt’s products then has to accept that American beer should be judged on the same basis. In that case, both countries have beer that sucks big time. Fortunately, that isn’t the case.

I’m back in for a second.
Thanks for the Firefox input. I see where my disconnect is.
I basically am using Firefox as a “Station wagon” to drive to the store for groceries while you guys are apparently using it to enter NASCAR races!
I am not even making Firefox break a sweat with the way I use it so that’s why I couldn’t see any need (or positive outcome) of an upgrade.
I know see that there are apparently ways to go beyond it’s (former) abilities.
*POOF*

EssBee: I love this particular quote: “the idea that my marriage needs to be protected by a bunch of hyperventilating ninnies in the midst of a queer panic makes me want to retch. Please do keep your clammy, quivering, homophobic fingers off my state of matrimony, if you please. My marriage has not once been threatened by same-sex marriage; heck, I’ve been to Massachusetts at least four times since same-sex marriage was made legal in that commonwealth. Roving bands of same-sex married couples did not trample my marriage rights while I was there.”
June 18th, 2008 at 11:02 am
Back to Firefox: I also use quite a few add-ons. The new add-on manager looks interesting, but so far, I don’t have much to say about it. As with any upgrade, some of my add-ons are no longer working, but that should change in the next few weeks.

… and after listening to the barrage of propaganda all day long I NEED to say this to SOMEONE … drilling for oil off of U.S. coastlines and/or in Alaska won’t do ANYTHING about our current high gasoline prices.
The sole purpose behind this push is to increase the shareholder and corporate profits for the domestic energy industry. I don’t say this as some sort of liberal tree hugger. I say this as one of the very stockholders I speak of.
“Allow us to drill” is that industry’s answer to EVERY national problem – from the “war in Iraq” to “childhood obesity”.
I follow the market and many of these companies closely. I may not like their tactics but as a capitalist pig myself … I know where the money is to be found.
