hurricane frances could destroy space shuttles. not much more to say after that, is there?

i popped out a new colobus release. nothing exciting, just some performance tweaking to take better advantage of the database back-end.

conclusion: when the big one hits, (most of) the blogs will survive.

(for the record, this site is hosted in los angeles, in koreatown.)

13 going on 30 unfortunately falls apart at the end, but otherwise is a fun movie. a couple of the funniest bits are when jennifer garner says gross! to herself in reaction to some grown-up situations.

it’s not a groundbreaking film, treading ground well-tread by films like big or freaky friday and so on, but it fits together well (except for the ending, as i said), and manages to stay away from being too saccharine.

okay, who am i kidding? it is a good excuse to watch jennifer garner for 90 minutes. enjoy!

(on a similar note, underworld is a good way to watch kate beckinsale running around in a leather outfit for a couple of hours.)
