A few sites enjoyed one evening over an Amarone …

• There are a plethora of great hits on the horizon. I am not a big graphic novel guy, unlike Wil, but I do own the Watchmen ( A Time magazine top 100 book of all time). The trailer for the new flick is promising and as it is from the director of the 300, probability of success is high.
• I think that they would need to have a team of PHDs to figure out the timeline of the Terminator series. I have been enjoying the television show but the whole time travelling back and forth has probably got some internet geek in an uproar over inconsistencies. Where does the new Terminator Salvation fit in? Good question. But as Christian Bale is John Connor, I have no choice but to see it ….
• In a world where people are cutting travel, I have become a video conferencing convert and our Roundtable product with Live Meeting has been blowing me away over the last month. The power of seeing people cannot be underestimated and at a few $K per unit, can’t go wrong.
• My brother and I were joking about how we both love watching TV. I know, people who do not watch TV are smarter and happier. Well, I like TV. The new Jay Mohr sitcom Gary Unmarried hooked me with this scene. Gary is speaking to his 13 year old son about a girl who he is seeing and his son is complaining about how she is clingy and always wants to hold hands.

Gary: ‘Tommy, this is a good thing. This girl likes you. Plus, you’re getting hand’

Tommy: ‘I am the first of my friends to get it’ (looking cocky)

Gary: (laughing and hitting him on the shoulder) ‘Thatta boy’

Tommy: ‘But if she wasn’t so hot I would think she was crazy’ (walks out)

Gary: (looking unsettled) ‘Yaaaaa, its a good thing that hot ones are never crazy’
