“Superman in Supernature needs all the comfort he can find…”
everyday glory July 26th, 2001Today was another good day; I like this trend.
After a stop for frozen mocha goodness, we stopped by the inlaws’ for a few minutes to drop off a radio for Sandi’s ‘new’ car; she just got a red ’72 VW Beetle convertible. Cute car, but the radio in it doesn’t work, and I happened to have an extra one, so… I gave it to her. And then, on to work!
“I came, I typed, I got the Hell out of there!”
Actually, it was a pretty good day. We have a series of terminals with on-screen displays and I happened to commandeer one today. I adjusted the RGB outputs so that my screen was red; I received many strange looks and queries. Go figure. I changed it to green after lunch. Same brand different flavor. A couple of people tried to see how I had changed it… unfortunately, they missed a couple of important steps in getting to the configuration menu for setting the RGB content, so I seriously doubt that they will be changing anything anytime soon. Silly rabbits, Trix are for kids!
Today’s discussions ranged from “How closed-minded are Americans when it comes to issues of the world” to “What kind of game would you design given the proper tools and money?” The most unusual topic derived from movie talk. We were talking about why sequels don’t always measure up to their antecedents. We got around to the first two Superman movies and the Star Wars trilogy and decided that – for the most part – they did a good job of maintaining continuity and story flow. We just won’t even mention the last two Superman movies.
There were only TWO Superman movies….
Where were we? Oh, yes… We started getting into very random thoughts around this time and out of left field came the question: “For all of his Jedi powers, can you imagine Yoda getting his swerve on?” Think about it: Yoda was 900 years old. There had to be a Mrs. Yoda or someone that he was intimate with. “All Force and no sex a very cranky Jedi master makes Yoda, yes.” Wait… He WAS pretty cranky in Empire. *ponder* That could explain a lot; I’ll have to mention that possibility tomorning. We also started talking about the upcoming Planet of the Apes. This looks like it will be verra interesting. The-Livejournaler-Known-As-Agrobat referred to it as “Marky Mark and the Monkey Bunch.” I was laughing so hard that I sent 90% of the mail that I was keying to the far side of Guam. (Ok, ok, ok…. I didn’t really, but it was within the realm of possibility.)
Well, that about wraps it up. L&O just went off, so I guess that I should prepare for an in-depth inner eyelid study.
Peace.
