All Forces

Lily Allen’s Alright Still is by far the most addictive album of the year! It’s brit pop, reggae, hip hop and just about anything else thrown into the mix. At it’s core it is upbeat music juxtaposed against gritty lyrics. She’s currently touring the u.s. and will be making a stop in new york.

I just launched the offical blog for Michael Moore’s new film Sicko. A documentary about the health care system in America. Now, blogs are not a common medium for movie websites, except for the often ridiculous myspace movie pages. That’s because movie sites usually require some sort of magical flash experience that sucks you into the magical world of the film. But in this case, a blog seems to be a perfect fit for Sicko. I am very curious to see what part blogging will play in it’s success, or even better in the transformation of our health care system. Please check it out, participate and give me your thoughts. You can rate your Health Care provider and comment on just about any health care experience you care to share. Help me spread the word because it looks like big brother is stepping in to block it’s release already. I am personally really excited about the film and thrilled I get to work on it, although I only had a day and a half to set up the blog. For those are curious, it runs on WordPress and the ratings are run by the wp-ratings plugin.

I am looking for 1 or two iSight magnetic mounts. This mount is the one that’s needed for the cinema display. It comes with the second generation iSights or the iSight accessory kit. If you have one, please le tme know. Apple is no longer making the iSight and it’s very hard to find just the part I need. I have a Mac Pro at work that has no mic and I have an original iSight that’s not being used. I would love to video chat with my son from work. Help me Obi-wan Kanobe, you’re my only hope!
