Mostly about my amusement

Blu-ray DVD

When I bought the PS3, I also purchased Superman Returns and Sleepy Hollow. With the Sony blue-tooth PS3 remote control, the PS3 works really well as a DVD player.

I’m not a HD buff so I did not expect how much better Blu-ray is compared to regular DVD. The difference was like comparing HDTV shows with regular NTSC shows.

I started to watch Sleepy Hollow but was interrupted by the kids.

I like most Johnny Dep movies but don’t think I should watch that one around the 3 and 5 year olds…

Cartoon scare in Boston

Saw this image off of CNN’s web site for the two who pleaded not guilty for the Boston scare.

“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, please look at the defendants and try to tell me they are not guilty.”

I think Boston way overreacted.

From the article

Assistant Attorney General John Grossman called the light boards “bomblike” devices and said that if they had been explosive they could have damaged infrastructure and transportation in the city.

That’s like saying “We saw a suitcase and had it been a suitcase nuke like on that 24 episode, thousands of people could have died.”
