Movie Pre Release Announcements

I hate seeing a preview in the theater only to be hammered at the end with a release date 6-9 months away.
I only want to see previews for something that I might go see next week or next month. Really, that is the time frame I am interested in knowing about. That is my decision window….what is the next movie I’m going to see.
Nevetheless I enjoyed the trailer for Spiderman 2 and will probably watch it a couple more times if for no other reason than to imagine that Mary Jane may learn what she wants to know. But I am also very unhappy that I will have to wait almost 7 months to see the movie.

Ties with a Message

Many of these do not look all that different from traditional designs that I have seen in my father’s or my closet.
But they certainly might make it easier to tell that someone that you have just been diagnosed with..well, take your pick.
Or to wear full disclosure when you are out . Of course, it will look a little wierd if you are a multiple carrier.

Just in time for XMAS

This little goodie may soon have folks looking for an improved model for 2004:

Suspend disbelief: Imagine he is an actual person. When you conduct a comfortable, natural conversation, you will find the experience more rewarding. AI Bush is always ready for interaction. AI Bush often has his own ideas for the conversation, so if you don’t get the response you want, rephrasing and being persistant sometimes get results.
AI Bush conversations contain a fair amount of current and biographical info that sometimes makes him think he is the real life George W. Bush. Responses that are actual quotes of Geroge W. Bush are included in quote marks.
AI Bush is more than willing to enter into discussions about college days, youthful exuberance, family matters, business deals, political correctness, assorted pastimes, various favorites, grammar issues, economics, or national and international politics.

Well, most of us have had at least 3 years practice with the suspend belief bit and many still haven’t quite been able to accept the idea w is real.
And, as a major enhancement, AI bush can learn new things and will, thus, run circles around the current model. Perhaps AI bush will challenge w for the Republican nomination.
