Squeee!

May I just say? Damn, that's HOT.

Also: The leper king in Kingdom of Heaven was Edward Norton?! I mean, I know he's pretty effing talented, but WOW. I distinctly recall when we were walking out to the car after the movie, and commenting that whoever played the masked leper king did an excellent job, and let me tell you, Ed Norton was about the furthest thing from my mind, because I *never* would have guessed. SO GOOD. Wow.

And now, a bit of a rant: Internet Explorer is Bad, because it does crazy and illogical things with sound HTML and CSS code. And don't even get me started on Javascript--in fairness, the wrongness of JS is pretty much its own fault, but still, graaaahhhh. IE has rarely ever done anything but make various tasks in my profession more difficult than they need to be.

"But I look at all these different web pages that only work in IE," you say? Well, how many times is that IE-compliancy getting you anything really cool and useful? Usually, it's something like a really badly-coded scrolling Div layer, or OMG PINK SCROLLBARS KAWAII NEE~!! Seriously, I'm an anime fan. I've seen enough fluffy and stupid IE-only design to last me a lifetime.

If you are looking at this page right now, do a browser check. If there is a dopey Windows logo or a rotating "e" in the upper-right of your browser, open a different browser and close this window RIGHT NOW. "But I don't have another browser," you say? Then keep this window open just long enough to go and download this bad boy. Once you do, you'll be far better off! And you'll be making a small contribution towards my continued sanity, which I like. Please? :D

Anyway, stuff's pretty good. James and rmalena randomly found each other on the street just before I arrived at the other office, so Rich came home with us to hang out for a bit. :D I had a pretty excellent wushu practice, mainly because I was there, and not because I made any particular improvements. James made french onion soup, and it was yummy x 10000!

Nothing else to note, I guess. Wheee!

That controller is just as weird and awkward looking as I imagined it would be. The system itself, though, is a wonder.

Damn... I want a PS3. I'd heard they were going to be cool but I had no idea just how cool.

And I agree with your stance on IE. Crap. Plus, it's a gaping security hole.

Firefox rox, but I have to keep IE around for the occasional (1% or less) page that doesn't load properly.
