Wheeeee! Can’t wait for a 1GB version. I think 1GB is about the ideal
(at the moment) for the average users documents and backup, including a
couple of tunes in mp3 and maybe a video clip or two as well. Damn, I
like this one!

Auto: San Andreas for hiding sex scenes in its computer code, reports
The Guardian.

“That project didn’t kill anyone, so Pickens got himself another bike
and stepped it up, attaching a 200-pound-thrust engine capable of
blasting him from 0 to 60 miles an hour in five seconds — fast enough
to beat a Porsche in a drag race. “

“Broadband penetration in SA is slow compared to international
countries.
“Telkom continually strives to increase broadband penetration by
gradually lowering the costs and looking at new product developments
which can make business practice easier for SMEs and all other
customers.”
Grrrr… well of course it’s bloody slow! We’re paying so much for it
you stupid *%%$@&#!
For me to get the same kind [...]

Cool.
A moody mp3 player sounds like something that could be pretty cool, and
I wonder what the algorithms would be that are incorporated into the
little silicon brains that power these things? After all, if you’re at
the gym, your pulse is racing and your sweating blood, and the device
thinks that you’re under pressure and plays something [...]

Man Charged with Murder for Killing Assailant

Again, a South African Law that truly makes the coppers look like the
bad guys. A bit of retrospective suggests that the cops are just doing
their job, after all, there’s a law somewhere that says that the guy who
defended himself must be arrested and charged. The way I see it,
however, is that if the man [...]

I’m getting tired of this…

So Hammas has won a majority in the Palenstinian election eh? Wow.
That’s impressive.
So the people of Palestine want Hammas to govern them. Good for them,
that’s what Democracy’s all about really, the people chosing who will
rule them. Even if it is Hammas.
I can see this may lead to a whole new bout of posturing and [...]

Now this will absolutely rock! Jet Li (if you don’t know who he is, you
don’t watch kung-fu movies, but he was in Die HArd 4, The One, Danny the
Dog a.k.a. Unleashed and a host of others) and Jason Stathem (Snatch,
Transporter, The One) are set to team up again, and this time they may
even go [...]

Now here’s a funny man – movies that you may have heard of are of
course, Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle. He’s apparently making a
sequel to the Hustle and also looking to do a Sci-Fi. Bonus.

Ultra Violet (Violent?)

Ooh, ooh, ooh!
Milla Jovovich is staring in a new sci-fi beat’em’up! Wheeeee! Having
watched Resident Evil: apocolypse for the umpteenth time last night
while munching away on Steers Burgers, I must admit that I’m looking
forward to this one. especially since it’s by the same guy that did
Equilibrium, which was fantastic.
Christian Bale rocks. Watch American Psycho for [...]


My ramblings, idiocies, nerfings, frothings, and occassionaly display of intellectualism... I said occasional, right?
