I Enjoy Watching Star Trek

I really like Star Trek.



I acquired Seasons 1-4 of Star Trek Enterprise from a friend of mine and have been watching Season 1 lately. It is great, I can't believe I have not watched it before. It deals with topics of science, the future, technology, evolution, systems, conflicting personalities there is no way I could not like it. I really like the portrayal of the humans and vulcans. Vulcans being very logical, cautious, systematic, objective. Humans are shown to be the emotional creatures they are. It is great to observe the way the humans and vulcans interact, it displays the strengths of both sides. Oh man, I neeeed more.



I recently started using my Flickr account. I am going to use it to upload my drawings to. The Flickr website has been designed/developed soooooooo well, it is easy to use, edit, upload and manage your photos.




I wish I had an fMRI machine. I am fascinated whenever I read about them or see them on tv. The images of brain activity , bright colours in certain areas of the brain which light up when the person being scanned is involved in a particular activity/thought/state. I wish I could live forever and learn everything, I want to be a professional in everything, I want to know everything. It's not fair!.... I don't wanna go to bed yet... it's only 10pm! Nooooooooooo! Mum... John gets to go to bed at 11pm.


Code Monkeys



I watched the first episode of Code Monkeys yesterday. It is pretty good!
Here is the synopsis from the G4 website:

From some of the most warped minds behind shows like Minoriteam and Crank Yankers, Code Monkeys is an 8-bit look at game developers trying to live the dream in the 80's.

Watch the pilot episode here.


In Satire: Two of the people from the Chaser (Charles Firth and Julian Morrow) are coming to Adelaide this Sunday 8th July. They are coming as part of the "Adelaide Festival Of Ideas". I can't wait. The talk/debate is titled, "You cannot be serious: Reality vs. Satire" and the question being asked, "is satire a solution to a ridiculous world, or part of the problem?".
