Errata
Ok, I've finally recovered from my hangover last weekend. ;)
Actually, we've been out partying some more. This past weekend didn't include as much drinkage as the previous, but we did play blackjack at a friend's birthday party and I won some margarita glasses, which I'm sure will be put to good use soon.
Anyway, on with the show...
A buddy of mine from NY sent me this the other day...thought I'd share with all you sci-fi geeks out there:
---------------------
Star Wars Show To Run Long?
George Lucas' longtime producing partner Rick McCallum told the BBC that a proposed Star Wars TV series will run for at least 100 episodes.
Speaking to BBC Radio 1, McCallum said the show's writing team would soon be meeting to start on the project, which would begin filming in 2008 and be ready the same year. "Hopefully, if we can make it work and everybody's excited and watches it, we will keep on going," McCallum told the BBC.
The series will be set between Episode III and IV of the film saga and will cover the 20 years in the life of Luke Skywalker growing up. McCallum said there would be "a whole bunch of new characters" and the series would be "much more dramatic and darker." He added that it was unlikely any of the stars of the movies would be involved in the TV series.
A typical prime-time network TV show airs about 22 episodes in a season.

Also, I read today that MS is finally going to release Halo 2 for the PC. What's the catch? Of course, you knew there would be one: it will likely only run on Vista.
Finally, from the Why-Didn't-I-Think-of-This department:
Roomba Take Frogger to the Asphalt Jungle
