- I have a major craving for Bob Chinn's. The strange thing is, I think it is because I saw a commercial for Joe's Crab Shack yesterday. That's almost like saying that I feel like crafting after watching someone play Solitaire. Which does happen from time to time, but a lot of things make me feel like crafting.
- Microsoft just released the latest version of their Pocket PC OS (called Windows Mobile). Toshiba is offering the upgrade for my model (e755) for $19, but only if you bought the thing between May 18th and now. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure I got it before that date. And I will NOT pay $50 to upgrade a model I paid over $500 for only a couple months ago. It's not so much the $31 difference, it's the pure principle of it all. So, I'm gonna have to figure out if there's a "cheaper" means of obtaining this upgrade. (Stork and Goods, I'm looking in your direction)
- One thing I forgot to complain about in last Friday's Hulk experience was crying babies in theaters. Why would you bring your baby to a movie? Especially the opening night of the Hulk? Maybe if it was Finding Nemo or some other G-rated cartoon, I would kind of understand, and that's still a big maybe. There's no way your baby's gonna enjoy any movie, let alone a crappy one with a big scary green monster that looks like Jose Canseco. I mean, as a 23 year old grown man, even I was scared. Okay, so I wasn't, but still.
Parents need to be taking care of their babies at home, not in a crowded, loud theater where they are gonna probably traumatize their little infant, and disturb everyone else in the process. If you really want to watch a movie, why not rent one? And if you really, REALLY have to watch the Hulk the first night it comes out, get a damn babysitter. But I would like to think that if I had a baby of my own to take care of, I would be willing to forego watching any movie until a better time was available. I don't care if it's Matrix Revolution, Return of the King, Star Wars Episode III, Austin Powers 4, or Jeepers Creepers 2, it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. Yes, I'd like to think that if anything is worth missing a movie for, taking care of your baby child would qualify. But for a lot of people last Friday, I guess they don't think the same.
