I am a Mac user

I am a Mac user turned to the dark side by games. Sites like this MacinBlog make me wish I could still be part of the Mac crowd. Maybe I’ll buy a dreamcast and g4 and use my PC to host thompaul.org. Hmmm.

BTW, M:I 2 is a great James Bond movie. If you like the TV show, however, see Gladiator again before you take in the garbage that is mi2.

Boy it’s nice to be

Boy it’s nice to be home. I learned so many things on my trip this
weekend. A quick list would include things like: LA to Utah is far,
kids are amazing (not new, but always good to gather more evidence),
Ute Lemper may fool you during a quick listen at the record store but
she doesn’t make good road music, BR5-49 and The I-10 Chronicles
do make good road music, two big men jumping from the closet screaming
‘Let’s all go to the movies’ will cause pain for the victim of this
little surprise and lastly, Utah to L.A. on a Sunday afternoon is really far.

Movies. For the first time in many years, I saw 4 movies in 2 days! Besides the 21 hours of driving, it’s pretty close to my ideal weekend. The Big Kahuna, Small Time Crooks, The Virgin Suicides and Shanghai Noon
are all excellent movies. All get at least a 2 on the Paul movie-scale. I would say more, but it’s late and I’m burnt out from my share of the drive home. (and I still have to go link to all this!)

Just got home from seeing

Just got home from seeing Battlefield Earth.
Linking to their official site would be unfair to you the readers of
iPaulo. This movie was terrible! Are you a SF fan worried that Titan AE
won’t be any good? Worried the year 2000 won’t have any decent SF
movies at all? Don’t worry I have just the thing. See BE – heck, see it
twice. Then any other science fiction you see this year will be great by comparison. Even Mission to Mars looks like Star Wars compared to BE. Avoid this movie like the plague it is.
