i havent been on any of them but the new orleans one, but i'm betting all the others have better scenery... unless you like looking at swamp and houses that have boat ramps instead of driveways...
i've always liked the story of the guy the pretended to be Stanley Kubrick... the other day, neatorama posted some bit about a Best Buy prank. if you check the website that was linked to it, they have one where they dressed someone up as a dead playwright to go speak at a Barnes & Noble...
Kevin Smith has a story about when he was writing a script for the new superman movie... one of the producers wanted him to have polar bears guarding the fortress of solitude... this is just a stretch of the wrong person's imagination.
the first snag in apples plan has been discovered. apparently, you will need to buy a new iPod first:
Apple's "Rented" Movies Can't Be Viewed on Most Video iPods Apple has begun receiving numerous complaints that movies that were recently made available for rent on its iTunes store can not be viewed on iPods that were purchased before September 2007. Many complained that Apple posted no notice of the limitation when the movie rentals became available and that they did not learn of the restriction until after they had rented a movie. Apple did not immediately respond to the complaints.
i work in software. i think its funny that they are starting to go the same way as the complaints that people have about microsoft. its not as big of news, but there are people that are reverting back to the previous OS from Leopard. hahah..
i am curious about how their itunes box is going to fair. it seems like they are now trying to catch up to tthe market that microsoft's media player already owns. i love my computer remote control. the itunes movie thing isnt really that new. all the major studios had previously set up movielink.com for renting and purchasing downloads. the big up that movielink has over the itunes plan is that they do offer same day as dvd release of the download for new releases. nice.. itunes is gonna make you wait a month after dvd release .
way back in the day.... when the internet was young.. i remember coming across a Jesus blog. he wrote about his day to day life and blah blah blah... he also got a lot of hate mail. not that they hated jesus, but that they hated that someone was pretending to be jesus... or so they assumed he was pretending...
