New Toy

Finally got my spankin' new iBall 8x6 pen tablet so I can work at home too. It's just as good as the Wacom but less than half the price. Sweet. Also bought a whirly, girly, blue wraparound skirt with folksy motifs. It doesn't seem to go with an...

Monday Movie Review, part Deux

nobody@vox.com(Brown Suga') — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 11:48:21 +0530

Purplesque reminded me about Ratatouille yesterday, and I also remembered some other films that I'd meant to review but forgotten. Ratatouille was nicely done - a little unbelievable of course (a Cordon Bleu who's a rodent?!) but who says fai...

Monday Movie Review

nobody@vox.com(Brown Suga') — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 11:39:11 +0530

This weekend was full of surprises. While I was expecting Michael Clayton to be a thriller, it turned out to be a depiction of conscience battles. Nice. It wasn't really a new one in terms of storyline, but I was blown away by the performance...
