Welcome to my blog...It's more of an occasional-random-quirky-thought blog or a check-out-this-cool-link blog than one of those this-is-what-i-had-for-breakfast-today-and-these-are-my-feelings-about-life blogs and it's definitely not one of those awful i'm-useful-and-have-important-things-to-say-and-i'm-contributing-to-society blogs. Enjoy.

Spinning Silhouette Illusion
Which way is she spinning?I love this new optical illusion -- if you stare at her long enough, she'll start spinning in the opposite direction. I find looking away and then looking back helps. I thought it was a joke at first, and then she changed on me and it blew my mind. Keep watching.

Horovitz!
Someone just pointed out that David Craig's 1990's UWO Gazette comic strip Horovitz has a website (albeit it's a crappy website) and there's even a facebook group. So many good memories.

AFI 100 Years -- 2008 Update
For all of you movie buffs out there, AFI updated their 100 Years... 100 Movies list. I recommend checking out the Wikipedia Entry that shows all the changes quite nicely. The changes are interesting in their own right: some are clearly political (Birth of a Nation [out], Intolerance [in]), perhaps others reflect post-911 sentimentalities (The Searchers [+84]) and there are a lot of other nuances like these. For those of you keeping score, I had 97 of the original 1998 list on DVD, but I currently only have 91 of the new list.

One Year & 100 Pounds
One Year & 100 Pounds Later (same pants)It's been exactly one year since I started focusing on losing weight and I'm now 100 pounds lighter. I know I promised a web page for this date explaining some of my methods, but it's still a work in progress: I'll re-post when it's ready.
