There are 3 things that I can't stand: hatred, bigotry and midgets.

Ponderings For 2007-11-28

  • Google put out a new version of their Mobile Maps app that does a cool thing. It’ll give approximate location based on cell location, even without a GPS. I played with it on the way home today and it does a decent job. As good as I could expect given how it’s doing it, anyway. It doesn’t have the accuracy of GPS location, but it’s great for keeping the map on the area you’re in, not to mention saving you from having to search around to get the map to where you are initially.
  • Speaking of which, Google has added collaborative features to their web maps system.
  • So, Katee Sackhoff may be departing Bionic Woman? Bad news, as she and Miguel Ferrer were the highlights of the show. I still have very mixed reactions about the show, and won’t be all too crushed if it doesn’t survive the strike should Sackhoff no longer be on it.
  • The legendary Todd-AO Scoring Stages are being shut down. OK, so I suppose it’s not as legendary to those of you who aren’t film score nerds like me…
  • Looking to get into the housing market? Might wanna consider current trends.
  • Add MORE reviews I’m not behind on: No Country For Old Men (9), Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium (9), Enchanted (7), Bee Movie (3) & Saw IV (3). Good grief.

Dialog Of The Day: “The Pie Maker considered how not telling Chuck the truth about her father was a lot like being locked in a prison. Then he considered how being locked in a prison was actually much worse than some silly metaphor about truth.” (The Narrator in Pushing Daisies 1.08)

Yeah, I haven’t done a Dialog Of The Day in quite some time (I do have plans for the return of the feature in a better form, I swear), but I couldn’t resist this one from today’s Pushing Daisies. Have I mentioned how much I love this show? ;-)
