There seems to be a lot of interest in Snow White lately. Not that I’m complaining, but it does make one wonder if there are any NEW stories being told. A fun twist an on ancient fairy tale is always enjoyable, but really?
That said, I am going to see these. I’m a sucker for quality costumes/make-up, which both of these movies seem to possess. A guilty pleasure trumps my desire for originality yet again. ;-)
I just happened upon this great skin and decided that I had to share it with fellow bibliophiles. Then I wandered and found even more skins that tickled my fancy. I started out with the purest intentions to rant about this marvelous bookshelf inspired image for tech gadgets created by the ever talented hand of Colin Thompson and managed to turn it into a gush of love for various artists and the one-dimensional goodies that carry their fine work. Ah well, I tried anyway!
Here are a few of my favorite skins:
- Bookshelf
- Toxicity
- My Pop
- Les Saisons
- Retrospect
Google is officially not supporting IE6! Yes, I know if you regularly visit the internet, you’ve most likely heard the news, but I had to express my elation. Reason being? I was just working on a web site and was reminded of the happy news.
Normally when I’m building a site, I try to get it as cross-browser compatible as possible, which often turns into a nightmare when checking my work in Internet Explorer – IE6 in particular. The fact that Google is backing me in my distaste for this loathsome Microsoft invention is like an extra olive in my salad. Complete bliss.
For those of you still using Internet Explorer: I beg you, please get yourself a quality browser like Moozilla’s Firefox or Google’s Chrome…they are lovely, stable, secure and above all, not IE! I’ll bet, after the very slight learning curve (it’s more of an adjustment, really), you’ll be right here with me singing the Hallelujah Choir.
My aunt sent this video to us and we thought it just had to be shared again…it came with the following message:
An elderly couple walked into the lobby of the Mayo Clinic for a checkup and spotted a piano.. They’ve been married for 62 years and he’ll be 90 this year.
Since it was a forwarded email we don’t know how accurate the details are, but it’s a grand thing (and a grand piano) regardless!
Happy Friday Everyone!
