Legion

Watching Legion this evening, by myself, pretty bad as expected (what can you expect from a movie with a 5.2 IMDB rating)

Getting ready for dinner, we will be watchin' The Blind Side, supposed to be a little better.

I got myself a few t-shirts from cafepress, hand't shopped there in 3-4 years. It's my favorite t-shirt source

Listening to Black Eyed Peas!


New York Cabs Gouged Riders Out of Millions

Wow, I had to post about this. But it's not that surprising. From the NYTimes:

About 3,000 New York City taxi drivers routinely overcharged riders over two years by surreptitiously fixing their meters to charge rates that would normally apply only to trips outside the five boroughs, according to the city’s Taxi and Limousine Commission.


Broadband.gov

Interesting, Broadband.gov is now up, lets you test your speed (it just uses a couple of the standard tests, like OOkla.

It also talks about the National Broadband Plan, blah, blah

Miguel Delibes

Famous Spanish novelist Miguel Delibes, Cervantes Prize Winner, died yesterday at 89. An estimated 20,000 people went to see his body lie in state at Valladolid Council House. His funeral was held at Valladolid Cathedral today.

Some of his novels are must read Spanish classics, such as Cinco Horas Con Mario/ Five Hours With Mario, (1966), which is considered to be his masterpiece.

My personal favorites are Las ratas, and Los santos inocentes/ The Innocent Saints, which was turned into a successful movie
