There was also a trailer for the upcoming Star Trek movie…

Looks like it’s gonna be sweet!

Worst Christmas Song… Ever

Holy crap, this has to be the most obnoxious Christmas song I’ve ever heard in my life…

It’s by some group called Newsong.

The key lyric…

“Sir I wanna buy these shoes for my Momma please
It’s Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry Sir?
Daddy says there’s not much time
You see, she’s been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes will make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful
If Momma meets Jesus, tonight.”

And of course, there’s a little kid singing the chorus the last time…

You can buy it here if you’re so inspired.

I’m going to go and drink heavily.

360° Light Field Display (aka Star Wars Holographic Display…)

Ok, this is freakin’ cool…

Here’s the group that put it together:

‘Keepon’… One Cool Ass Little Robot

This is pretty darn cool…

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

I have to say that the Harry Potter films keep getting better. It’s great to see the actors turn into adults and watch their acting chops evolve. Definitely a fun summer movie and I enjoyed it as much as I did the The Prisoner of Azkaban. I’m looking forward to the final two.

What’s funny about my rating is that it’s based on the following criteria:

Apparently it’s this little post that’s causing all the trouble.

Trebsworld: R rated and proudly so.

Baby Bird & Frog

Here are a couple of pictures that I took this past week while visiting my parents. The first one is of a baby cardinal. The second is one of the inhabitants of my parents pond.

We stayed in a wonderful little bed & breakfast called The Victoriana Inn. Took a lovely cruise on the skipjack H.M. Krentz, had some wonderful food (Bistro St. Michaels and the Town Dock were amazing…), and got to check out Mary & Kevin’s excellent shop, Creative Xpressions.
