I do this. Often. *Facepalm*. Or the reverse variation wondering if...

Go Fish
caught a compilation show on one of the Sky channels that went through the last few decades of queer cinema. Had totally forgotten about Go Fish. Went to see it on a date at the GFT.

A Rant About Women →
“…They are bad at behaving like self-promoting narcissists, anti-social obsessives, or pompous blowhards, even a little bit, even temporarily, even when it would be in their best interests to do so.

Steve Ballmer of Microsoft at CES is freaking me out when he puts his hands on his hips. Dude don’t you know that pose is a Scottish Lass ™ signature move (but you get extra brownie points if you turn it into an “I’m a little tea pot” stance). Go and give us a Developers! Developers! Developers! instead.

WatchLive from the Sony Electronics Press Conference
Bloody hell Sony is going dual SD/MemoryStick on some cameras. That red HD one looks gorgeous. Like the guy in shirt and tie with the English sounding accent (Howard?) now that’s smart dressing none of this Californian, laid back casualness.
