Well I think this picture true to life photograph taken with a webcam on the Intarnets proves for once and for all the our friend Roi from Mechanical Cabaret is IN FACT a baby.

I was talking to the thing on the table and listening to it again today. This time is was about the user interface for the product that the company I work for makes. This picture gives you an idea about what it *might* look like.
Here is my impression in pencil of the bi-weekly marketing conference call that I participate in at work. I get up at 6 AM every second Tuesday (except this week it was Wednesday! Can you believe it?) and get a lift from my boss in his Land Rover. We then listen and talk to a thing on the desk for 1 hour.
Well it was time. Acavill.com now brought to you by WordPress 2.2, Kubrick 2 and Sifr via CG-FlashyTitles. I know to most of you this means nothing. Not to worry, it’s boring unless you are me or some other people.
Oh yeah, there are a many, many new header images.

I think he looks good. So boring when people go on about how old he is. It shows their age (and ignorance about the ’spirit’ of the films of course) Anyway, here is what Harry said about it in an interview with Total Film magazine in 2002.
“What astonishes me,” Harrison Ford says, “is that people can’t imagine Indiana Jones aging at all. Why expect any character to be frozen in time? The appeal of Indiana Jones isn’t his youth but his imagination, his resourcefulness … His physicality is a big part of it, especially in the way he gets out of tight situations. But it’s not all hitting people and falling from high places. My ambition in action is to have the audience look straight in the face of a character and not at the back of a capable stuntman’s head. I hope to continue to do that, no matter how old I get.”
I seriously doubt doing the action scenes will be a problem for him. I mean this is the guy who does emergency helicopter rescues in his spare time.
And then when asked what he would do if Spielberg decided he was too old for the part. He replied
“If Steven Spielberg and George Lucas tried to replace me, first I’d tell them to go f*** themselves. Then I’d kill them!”
Priests, teachers and students at a Haryana school, the alma mater of deceased astronaut Kalpana Chawla, are praying for the safe return of Indian American Sunita (Suni) Williams from space on Thursday night. (from the Hindustan Times)
I have been watching Nasa TV for the last few months and I heart Suni and I hope she gets home safe and sound and I made her a little (very babyish) video with Leonard Nimoy singing ‘Sunny” and I love her.
Some thieves on the Internet tried to sell someone’s identity. I guess they don’t watch TV or at least the kind of TV I watch.
Luke Skywalker and his hometown pal, Wedge Antilles are getting ready to attack the Death Star. Wedge says, “Luke old buddy let’s get us some of that Mos Eisley style noodles before we go and blow up that old Death Star. You know, for old times sake.”
Luke is reluctant, “I don’t know Wedge this is awful important.”
“C’mon Luke we can’t do this if we’re distracted by hunger! We’ll be like a Jawa trying to sneak by an Imperial guard when he’s got a droid stealing jones as big as Jabba.” cajoles Wedge.
Luke caves and they go off to a cantina that has Mos Eisley noodles. Now these noodles are traditionally eaten with chop stick style space implements. As Luke is struggling to eat them, due to nervousness, he realises that he actually IS hungry. “Darn it! I’ll never blow up the Death Star unless I get some food into me!”
Wedge says, “Just relax Luke! You know how to use the old Tatooine Chopdockadocks!”
The more Luke tries, the worse it gets. His expression of hurt bewilderment, coupled with the visible onset of extreme anxiety about the mission, makes him a pitiable sight indeed. The mission is NOT going to happen unless he gets some food into him! “Why? Why? Why? I am Soooo hungry! The Death Star will kill everyone! Just like they killed Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru,” You can see Luke’s thoughts like they were tattooed on his forehead.
Just when everything seems like it couldn’t get worse, noodles everywhere, Luke looking like a smacked and starving puppy, Crazy Old Ben appears in his Jedi ghost form. He says:
“Use the fork Luke”
I am so very, very sorry
Two white American business men in the queue at lunch time trying to make jokes with the nice latino lady that works behind the counter. Both in dockers and golf shirts.
Man 1: “I’m a French Vanilla man myself. You are too, aren’t you Dave?”
Man 2: “You know I am.”
And I bet they are. French. Vanilla. Men.
