Grace Park has only mentioned once in this article:

Other strong women on the show include Grace Park (pictured, right), who plays Lt. Sharon “Athena” Agathon and various other incarnations of Cylon Number Eight,….”  

Even Lucy Lawless has a full paragraph devoted to her.

Of the 25 films listed, I’m looking forward to “Inglorious Basterds” the most.

Never too late to read about money issues.

I’m interested in seeing how the phone is when it is done.  But I wouldn’t go to Sprint for this phone.  Sprint was my worst experience with a cell phone carrier.

Eastwood’s solid acting skills are on full display in this movie. The other actors, some apparent first-timers, are not so great. The movie moves at a brisk pace, with a mixture of humorous and dramatic moments. Eastwood’s character is more William Munny than Dirty Harry.

Grade: B+

I’m still learning Photoshop. There seems to be some good advice in this posting.

…when I would write a movie review it would be long. Time is short, so my new movie reviews - when I have a chance to watch a movie - will be short. It won’t be extremely insightful, but it will convey what I feel about the movie.

For The Curious Case of Benjamin Button:

Brad Pitt grows young while Cate Blanchett grows old. Acting done well by both, and Fincher’s direction was spot on. But the ending left me unsatisfied.

I blame the economy.

The web hosting account for janella.com has come up for renewal. Dotable, where the site is hosted, has been a great web host this past year. Their pricing and support have been great. I have nothing bad to say about their company or service. But money is money.

Granted it only cost “x” amount of dollars a year for the account. But “x,” when factored with “y” and “z,” makes hosting a web site an extra expense I can do without. I must consider alternatives to web hosting.

There are many free platforms to blog out there - Wordpress.com, Vox, LiveJournal, MySpace, Facebook, etc. The logical choice would be to go with Wordpress.com. I know Wordpress well, as my blog ran on Wordpress. But I love how Tumblr works. Tumblr is drop dead simple.

Yes, I’ll need to deal with the fears I’ve mentioned in my old blog postings: lack of control of data and loss of data. But I’ll learn to deal with it. I trust in Tumblr. (Now don’t let me down.)

And so it begins anew…here on Tumblr.

The Palm pré looks very interesting. Too bad it’s going to be on Sprint. I was with Sprint once. I had a problem with their billing / customer service, which made me move to Verizon (then later to AT&T). More info on the Palm pré here and here.
