"Do you expect me to talk?", "No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die."
I'm a James Bond junkie. Like Rick in Casablanca, Bond is the man every man wishes he could be. So it's with great anticipation that I await Casino Royale. Looks like a damn good one. Maybe they'll make up for the last two crap Bond flicks.

Holy Crap, I Have a Blog!
Wow, I completely forgot about this... I've been a slacker again.
Let's see, what's been up:
1) I'm a CrackBerry addict. My nifty little phone gets my email, contacts, calendar and tasks wireless sync'd automatically. It's a lot like having a BlackBerry, but better and geekier. I've become completely dependent on it. I can leave the office early knowing that I'm always in touch (when I want to be). I can punch in a "to-do" task in the elevator and it's synchronized to my computer before I make it back to my desk. But last week, Cingular had some real problems with their Internet connectivity that made me think that functionality was turned off. I was lost without it. It would be like if you came home and your 360 was replaced with a PS2. Yeah, it's still kinda cool, but you can't play any of your games anymore. Damn 360-stealing gnomes.
2) World of Warcraft. If you have to ask, you wouldn't understand. It's as though electrodes slither out of my monitor and attach directly to the pleasure center of my brain.
3) I'm making a call tomorrow and making the last payment on my car. Hell, yeah!
4) I think I've decided that with the bonus check early next year, I'm going to move. I've never really been that happy with the house or the part of of town I live in. I can't really pinpoint what it is about the house--it's just not for me. I think I'm going to move closer to mid-town and maybe buy and older house with some character.
Crappy Fact of the Day:
In 2006, the US Miliary discharges an average of 2 people per day for being gay. The good news is that, as always, The Daily Show's upstanding investigative journalism is shedding light on this subject.
"Intromiss." That's classic. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

Tom Waits, Coffee and a Rainy Day
Were there ever 3 things that went better together? It was dark and rainy all day. I think I spent 2 full hours today sitting in my office, looking out the window with coffee in my hand and Tom Waits in my ear. I haven't been that content or relaxed in ages.
WoW, I Haven't Blogged in a While
Yes, I've been sucked into the World of Warcraft metaverse. I held out as long as I could, but eventually succumb. All I can say is: damn, this is a sweet game.
And that's all I have to say about that.
