New Moon: a sneak peek behind the scenes

Like a lot of other people I am eagerly awaiting the release of the film New Moon. Unlike the first in the series (which was IMHO a bit lame) the second edition of the Twilight Saga looks to be action filled and packed with special effects at least after we get past the Bella wallowing in her misery bit.

I ran across these behind the scenes views of the Volturi and the Wolf pack.

Balderdash

Today I thought I would resurect an old favorite

Today’s word:  Cymbocephalic

Check here for the rules.

Check here for the real meaning for the word (but don’t ruin it for yourself by going there first).

What is your definition?

My wife is psychic

Seriously, Marla can read my mind.

Most people would think this is a good thing, and in the ideal world it would be, because I would never have to ask her for anything, she would know what I need before I know I need it. Life would be great.

Full(ish) Moon

I dont know when the full moon actualy is, but the moon was looking pretty cool as the clouds passed infront of it.

Kiss a wookie, Who’s your daddy?

I was at a friend’s house the other day and he showed me a cool video clip. I was going to share the clip directly with you but then I found out that it was not as original as I first thought it was.

Getting back in the saddle

So it has been ages (about seven months) since I was regularly blogging about stuff. Alicia is now seven months old, and there is no coincidence that the 2 time periods are the same.

Amazing CSI Tech

I think I saw this on twitter the other day. Made me laugh.

 

I don’t know who did the original work but kudos to them.

Ninja Dog and the Thunder storm

This morning we had a relatively rare thunder and hail storm in Cape Town. I grew up in JHB where storms like this mornings are commonplace during the summer (like a thunderstorm almost every day). So when Lightning booms across the sky it is met in my household with joy and delight (my wife is also an ex-Gautenger).

Well not so much joy and delight this morning.

High way or the low way?

I have been watching the progress of the road works at the Koeberg road interchange. It has fascinated me to try and predict (based on the progress made, where the various new paths will go, where they will lead from and where they will join onto their target.

The other day I lost patience with the guess-work and googled for plans or artists impressions, anything that would give me a further clue as to what the roadway would look like when it is done.

I fixed it!

The other day CJ came to me in a bit of a state. Nothing too serious, just something that she could not handle by herself.
