Crikey - must be summer, haven't blogged for weeks. been on vacation .

yikes

Ok, so here is something - the "Periodic Table of the Internet" - rather entertaining.

Saw "Transformers" twice over the last week of vacation. My kids proclaimed it "The Best Movie Ever".

 
It was really good. Ok, yes, I am sure that there are holes in the plot that you could drive  *ahem* a truck through....but damn....it was FUN! Loud, Noisy, yes, a "boy movie" yes,  - lots of military hardware and non-stop action.....but FUN!  And quite the recruiting movie for the military. Made me want to sign up just so I could spout out all those military phrases and acronyms!

Apparently Michael Bay is on such good terms with the military that he can order F22's the way the rest of us order french fries.  The CG on the "transforming" robots was impressive. Apparently it required "assloads" of processing power and the complex ones still took 38 hours to render. No kidding.
