Watched Amelie' this evening. . .pretty cool flick though I'm not a huge fan of subtitles since I know there are so many human emotions and whatnot that I'm missing because I can't miss something running along the bottom. . .quite a love story. . .I'm sure this has to be considered a chick flick but I really did enjoy it, mostly because she was so neurotic and I can see myself doing those same sorts of things.

Why does the French language sound so much more romantic to me than other languages?  I'm sure that I've been programmed from birth to think that France is about love but still. . . it is just a cool language. . .this coming from someone who is decidedly monolingual. . .tried for a day to learn Spanish and gave up. . .I ramble too much.

NASA hacked Ok so while you can't put it on a resume, this is just completely cool. It seems to me that at some point, if you're this RaFa guy, you just realize that you can do anything with a computer. I'm having trouble putting up a website for a football pool and this guy is hacking NASA.

Now, I'm no moron but I realize that if I doubled the number of brain cells and synapses that I have, I couldn't hack NASA. The ability for humans to excel at behaviors continues to fascinate me, partly from my psychological background, and partly because I seem inable to do the same.

It's amazing, really. . .

Website not moving very quickly.  Got the pages and the games up that I want but can't seem to figure out how to get data out of radio buttons in a datagrid.  New technologies. . .of course, they're mostly all new to me.  If I can just figure out how to access those radio buttons, all will be well.  Don't think the rest will take much time.  Actually could work on the admin page if nothing else. . .will do that tonight.  I'm becoming a geek.
