Don't you just hate it when things don't go to plan?
I'm not a smart man. At least that's what I keep telling myself today as I am re-writing a lot of code I worked on the past couple of days. See, specs changed, and I SHOULD have seen the change coming but didn't now, I have more work to do. I hate deadline projects (yeah, so the deadline isn't for another 5-6 weeks, but still, I's looming above me like the grim reaper. And I'm not talking about the cool "Death" from Family Guy who goes to frat parties and tries to pick up chicks. It's not even the cool "Grim Reaper Dude" from Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey. What was I talking about again?)
Very fun night last night watching Hellboy. Maybe it's just me, but I've been noticing a trend recently between rising Nazi conspiracies in movies, books and entertainment in general. A book I read a while ago The Day After Tomorrow had it (P.S. this book has NOTHING to do with the movie of the same name. The movie was better.) Well maybe it was just those two things that happened within a week or two of each other that made me think about it and there isn't anything going on, but it sure did seem like it for a while. I wonder if the entertainment industry is running out of ideas. During the Cold War it was easy to make the Ruskies the bad guy, now who? I haven't seen it yet (but do own it :)) but The Sum of All Fears was supposedly had a terroristic threat, but maybe that type of thing still hits too close to home to be good for entertainment purposes. Maybe it's just easy to make The Nazis the bad guys. One look at the swastika and all in the audience knows that they're bad.
Enough rambling for today. Bye Bye Jann, have a good time in Hawaii.
