I just watched the coolest movie. It is called Waking Life. It is an animated movie, but a very oddly drawn movie. The animation is great and filmed with a new technique. It’s called Rotoscoping. To find out more, read the plot summary or visit the site.
Plot Summary:
Dreams. What are they? An escape from reality or reality itself? Waking Life follows the dream(s) of one man and his attempt to find and discern the absolute difference between waking life and the dreamworld. While trying to figure out a way to wake up, he runs into many people on his way; some of which offer one sentence asides on life, others delving deeply into existential questions and life’s mysteries. We become the main character. It becomes our dream and our questions being asked and answered. Can we control our dreams? What are they telling us about life? About death? About ourselves and where we come from and where we are going? The film does not answer all these for us. Instead, it inspires us to ask the questions and find the answers ourselves.
And the Smart Vote Goes to….
John Kerry. A recent study shows that the average IQ of residents of Bush states was lower than those in Kerry states. See the graph here: 2004 Election by IQ.

New Design
Yeah, yeah, yeah….. I redesign too much. I can’t help it. When I get bored and stressed out with school, ideas start floating around my head and I try out different things. I might use this new design. Not quite sure yet. I also wanted to test out WP 1.3 Beta. Let me know what you think.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
So here is my list. Have fun shopping for me!
Hey man, is this a dream?
