Jay’s Life

I’m like a superhero with no powers or motivation, and she’s my Lois Lane.

Dark Knight - IMAX vs. Non

Now that I’ve seen the new Batman movie twice I have some advice. If you havn’t seen it go. If you have seen it but havn’t seen it in IMAX, go again.

Worm that Transcodes Audio Files

This is the craziest thing I’ve heard in a long time.

“Kaspersky Labs has discovered malware that inserts links to malicious Web pages within ASF media files, posing a danger to Windows users who download music files from P2P networks. Infected files launch IE and load a page that asks the user to download a codec. The download, a Trojan horse, installs a proxy program to route other traffic through the PC. The malware also has worm-like qualities, according to Secure Computing. It searches for MP3s, transcodes them to WMA format, wraps them in an ASF container, and adds links to further copies of the malware, all without modifying the .MP3 extension.”

Dear Rogers

I’d like to upgrade my phone and my wife’s phone to iPhones. However I don’t understand why the phones have 2 different prices and are both more than if I was a new customer.

I was quoted $224 for the first and then $349 for the second. Why do I have to pay a $175 penalty for already being a customer?

A customer for nearly a decade no less.

How is that fair?

R.I.P. XBox 360

So many fond memories before my dear beloved XBox 360 passed away early this afternoon.

He was a dear friend and will be missed. His replacement should be arriving in a month or so from the good folks at Microsoft who, have extended the warranty to 3 years, for XBoxes suffering the genetic default that is the “3 red lights of Death”.

So fare well my friend, you will be missed long after you’re gone.

Mrs. Coules

I ran into my 11th Grade science teacher today at lunch. It was nice to see her again and talk about where I was and what I’d done since graduating. Good to see you again Mrs. Coules. :)

Now that I’m 32

I have thus far accomplished 2 great feats in my 32nd year.

1) I tamed Sian-Rotam, a white lion with a black mane. Note the superb double trapping skills used to claim my new pet.
2) I beat my first 2 songs on Hard in Guitar Hero 3

Staysea has instituted the first annual birthday club sandwich, which will replace the cake as my choice meal :)

Iron Man

Staysea and I went to see Iron Man with Marnie & John and Andrew and his brother last night. It was really good. I’m quite impressed with how well the last few runs of comic book superheros have been translated to live action.

I’m really looking forward to the new Batman movie too. I was already impressed with Batman Begins, much closer to the genre of the first modern Batman movie with Michel Keaton.

GTA4

Just got back from the EB Games to pickup my copy of Grand Theft Auto 4. They opened the doors at midnight, but I wasn’t going to stand around that long. Ended up going by around 12:45 after having a pint at Staysea’s Milestones.

Only ended up lined up for about an hour, and well worth it, just from the Special Edition safety deposit box and the fun times waiting in line with a bunch of other die hard gamers. I’ve got tomorrow off so of to play. Just came up here for a few 40s and some chips ;)

China Arrestes 35 in Terror Plot - Yeah, right

I’m not usually a conspiracy kinda guy. I believe that the Moon landing happened and that there really were dinosaurs. But I find it convenient that when the Olympic flame is being dogged by such bad press and protests on it’s way to Beijing, that the Chinese government plays the Terrorist card and distracts the media. It’s just a diversionary tactic as far as I’m concerned.

Thanks - Random Kindness

Thanks to who ever was in front of me at Tim Hortons and bought my coffee. Nice to know there are people committing random acts of kindness.
