Get your geek on

It's lunchtime and I can't sleep. I hate this. I fell instantly asleep when my head hit the pillow this morning at 9. Three hours later and !BAM! wide awake. Maybe I'll watch a movie...finished the new Stephen King novel. Picked up the extended version of the new King Kong and V for Vendetta. My brain isn't quite functioning properly right now either...this is the 3rd attempt at entering this...accidentally deleted it twice already.

Part way through GoW now. Playing by yourself + hardcore = not easy ( and doesn't sound too good either ). Still haven't had a chance to go online with it yet.

Found some interesting tidbits about things that only happen in the movies. Here are some of the better ones:

5. Any lock can be picked with a credit card or paperclip in seconds. UNLESS it's the door to a burning building with a child inside.

11. Any police officer about to retire from the force will more often than not die on their last day (especially if their family have planned a party). (Caveat: Detectives can only solve a case after they have been suspended from duty).

13. If staying in a haunted house, women should investigate any strange noises wearing their most revealing underwear.

21. Cars will explode instantly when struck by a single bullet.

24. The ventilation system of any building is the perfect hiding place. Nobody will ever think of looking for you in there and you can travel to any other part of the building undetected.

25. You will survive any battle in any war UNLESS you show someone a picture of your sweetheart back home.

31. Plain or even ugly girls can become movie star pretty simply by removing their glasses and rearranging their hair.

35. During all police investigations it will be necessary to visit a strip club at least once.

Now for the ubergeeks out there, a little Battlestar Galactica vs Star Wars:

I realized that it's been a while since I posted any eye candy so to rectify this....Canada's own Matrix babe, Carrie-Anne Moss
