Star Trek
So I got some premier tickets and went to see it today, about a week before it opens and I LOVED it, I’m not sure it’ll make the trekkies warm and fuzzy, but hey, it was sure as hell pretty, and decent watching too!!! 
I’m totally excited, I’m in! Signed NDA so I can’t say jack (don’t bother asking, really I mean it), but look here :

Wordpress 2.7.x…
I’ve moved my blog to wordpress 2.7.x, hopefully this’ll be the last major release for a while. If you see anything funky, let me know.

So I’m now an official Texan. And as mentioned before I’m in the throws of setting up my apartment. I’ve got myself a nice Samsung 52″ LCD and a Sony Playstation 3 and with my apartment, I got cable. Back in the days gone by I used to watch a lot of the stuff I wanted to see either Online, or DVD… Any number of other methods… However, now that I’m in the US, the source of all things TV, it was time to get into the swing of a proper DVR.
Bring on the TivoHD! The only thing is… They don’t sell them at Time Warner, and it’s a bit of a grey area on support. I’m brave, and reasonably with it, so I took my chances, and boy am I glad I took them.
I’ll write a few posts over the next few days on my new TiVo. But right now, I’m going to watch a nice HD copy of Harry Potter that was on CineMAX tonight (Harry Potter and The Order Of The Phoenix)

So, most years I go ahead and pick 3 things to do that year… turns out last year I did a ton of things (went to Asia, moved to San Antonio, got a new job, bought a new car - 350Z, got a nice apartment, and sorted tons of other things out, went bungee jumping, learnt to play poker). So this year, I’m going to put a seriously big list together, and see how much I can get done…
1) 50-60 pounds off! (yeah, pudge-be-gone)
2) Skydive - yeah!!
3) Tattoo - get some more done
4) Back to calm - meditate regularly
5) MMA - time to take it serious
6) Learn Python - finally need to bite the bullet and get it done
So far, so good… lets see how it rolls I’ll give a monthly update.

350Z Cargo Space - FAIL!
So those of you who’ve spoken to me in the last year would probably have worked out that I was moving to San Antonio, Texas, And i’ve been here for a few months, moved into my apartment and in said apartment I have pretty much nothing to start with (currently I’ve got a Bed, an Oversized TV, a Blender (Thanks Woot!), a PS3, around 23 games) and so I’ve been buying ’stuff’ like crazy.
On Saturday, I had a massive shopping day, it included a whiteboard, and an office chair, some other bits and pieces, oh and a shredder that shreds CD’s, yeah, really…
THE DAMN CHAIR wouldn’t fit, not on the passenger side, not in the boot/trunk, no where! I love that car, SO MUCH, but omg, it’s impossible to actually use it for a ton of stuff… I’ll need to get a second car at some point I think…
