Back in GP
I'm back in GP for the weekend, I have only been gone a week and it feels like a month. I crashed at Sean and Kyle's house last night and fell asleep watching Seven Pounds.
I do love Portland, but I'm going to miss Grants Pass and all my buds. Everyone should just live in Portland and the world would be perfect.
I'm going to the Mall today with a bunch of Brittany's friends and Sean. Pretty excited to hang out with everybody. Not excited to go home, just because of the damn drive.
More energy drinks!!!!!
BTW
Kyle, the For The Horde picture on your desktop is...ridiculous.
Enjoy your Saturday everyone.

Watchmen
Went to the midnight showing of Watchmen, of course, and I have one word to say about it.
Brilliant. By far, one of the gripping, ironic and beautiful movies I have ever seen. The story is so immense that you feel like it's reality and the horror in the irony makes you hate to be an American.
I won't give any details or spoilers. I'm just saying this movie wasn't just a movie. It was a work of art and will go down as one of the masterpieces of the world.
I'm now in my apartment dead tired, and still making sense of what I have just witnessed. Time to sleep on it, and try not to dream of Dr. Manhattens glorious blue wang.
Thank you, and goodnight.
Nicholas.

Dollhouse
I have to say, Dollhouse is a great new show hitting FOX following The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
The show was created by Josh Whedon and stars Eliza Dushku who plays the very sexy Echo. The plot of the show is about a company called "Dollhouse". It's a secret corporation that earses the memories of humans to implant them with other memories, thus making them have different personalities. Clients can come to Dollhouse and request a "Doll" male or female and have the implanted with any personality they wish. They then get to spend a certain amount of time with the Doll. Examples are a guy wants a woman to spend time with for a weekend. He then pays Dollhouse to give him a girl with a personality that will fall in love with him. When the weekend is over the Doll then returns to Dollhouse for an "Appoitment", which is where they earse the Dolls memory. They are then an empty shell until the next client arrives.
They don't do this forever, they usually voulenteer and sign a contract earsing their memory for X amount of years. After the contract is over they are released back into the real world. At least, that's what I think. Details of that have not been shared much. There have only been two epidoes and it premired on FOX on 2/13/09.
If you don't know who Josh Whedon is, he's the guy who wrote and directed Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
The show is based around Echo who is played by Eliza Dushku. A lot of clients request her and it seems that she is still holding on to some memories. The show so far is amazing, a great sci-fi twist to most FOX shows. I recommend it for anyone looking for a new series to get into.

Palm Pre: May not be coming!?!
So the many of us who watched CES 09 and say the unveiling of the new Palm Pre, got pretty excited. It is a far better improvement from previous Palm devices. A lot of journalists were actually surprised. They thought the mobile device that would win over CES would be the new Nokia n970; which is not due to release until a few more months. The Pre, however, stood out in the crowd.
Well, sources have informed me that the Pre may not even come!
Another thing many of us know is that soon after CES. Apple, got their mutlitouch function of the iphone pattened. For those of you who do not know what that means. It means that any other company that uses multitouch functions on a touchscreen mobile device similiar to that of the iphones will be pursued in legal charges.
Well, the Pre has multitouch BUT the Pre was already scheduled to release before Apple got the patten for their multitouch. This is pretty much a tactic from Apple to knock out the competetion. They know that the Pre is going to be big, bigger then the G1 and possibly gain more sales then the iphone. This is a way to stop that from happening. The case is still being settled and as of this time I know little about the details. I will be investigating it further and update you on any change.
Hopfully Apple decides to drop the charges, because the Pre is going to bo the real game changer in the mobile world.
