Wall-E with a Candy Cane

Caught WALL-E in the holiday spirit collecting candy canes the other day.  Wouldn’t it be fun to see the little guy with a sugar high?

Tis the Season to be Joll-E

While browsing around Amazon the other day, I saw a great WALL-E ad that featured Wall-E in a Santa hat with some Christmas lights.  So I took a screen shot and made it iPhone/iPod Touch friendly, just for you. :)

Happy WALL-E Days – iPhone Wallpaper

In celebration of the release of WALL-E on DVD, and the upcoming Holiday season, I thought I’d share a little WALLE-E fun in the form of an iPhone/iPod Touch wallpaper.

Happy WALL-E Days!

Simpsons Firefox Theme

It’s not exactly in English, but it doesn’t really matter. There is an official Simpsons Firefox theme promoting the movie.

Simpsons Firefox Theme

Sure, it’s a German theme, but it contains doughnuts and The Simpsons Movie logo.

I had thought of creating a Simpsons theme once, but it would have been much more character orientated. Still, it’s kind of fun and looks decent. Not enough Simpsons for me, but the doughnuts look tasty.

Download the theme from the official Mozilla Addon site.


 

Spiderman 3 Is Just OK.

Spiderman 3We went out and saw the much anticipated Spiderman 3 today and came home a bit disappointed. Yes, it was good, but not great. We didn’t feel satisfied at the end and a little bored at times during the movie.

We did really enjoy Spiderman 1 & 2 and were excited for the 3rd. Maybe we over hyped it for ourselves, but it sure fell short of expectations.

If you really want to see it, go. But if you aren’t sure, wait for the video. It’s not worth the high price of admission in my opinion.


 

Freedom Writers

Freedom WritersWe caught Freedom Writers at the local theater and it’s is an excellent movie.

It’s a based on a true story where one teacher tries to unite students that are from different gangs and yet all lead the same life. She works with them to let them know that their lives aren’t anything new and help teach them what history has taught us. She fights the school system and against the prejudices that exist. It’s inspiring and I hope it’s more fact than fiction.



 

Apple iPhone/PDA/iPod – Wow

The announcement today of the Apple iPhone is amazing. The little device that can do phone, music, videos, tv and so much more blows me away. All this with no buttons, just a touch screen. It’s basically like a Mac Nano. It’s almost perfect. The main, and killer, downside is that it’s Cingular only. I’m not switching to them anytime soon and I really wish they could have partnered with Verison or a few cell companies.


 

Jammin’ on my Bose SoundDock

After I worked out a few issues with my iPod, it now works great and I love it. I’m all for filling the house with my music and the SoundDock is great as it also charges my iPod. :D

Other cool gifts included a new watch, the Muppet Show season one, Shaun of the Dead and iTunes gift cards to name a few!

My wife also got a cool iPod accessory, but I’m waiting for her to post about that.


 

Netflix or Blockbuster?

As the days get colder and the snow gets ready to fly, my wife and I are pondering the movie rental services that come to your door. However, we can’t decide if we should try Netflix or Blockbuster.

Netflix has been around for quite a while and I hear mostly good stuff. Most people I know that do the movie rental services though the mail are doing Netflix. However, Blockbuster seems a few dollars cheaper and give you a free in store coupon.

What have you used or do you recommend? Good bad or ugly, we’d like to know.
