2 months, 2 shumonths.

Lots of updates, and since I’m a neatish type of guy, I’m going to stick all in order.

First off, Shooter is now the 3rd best movie I’ve ever seen. I first passed it off as a “filler movie”, one of those movies no one really cares about, and released (I think) so it can generate income to keep studios afloat long enough to release a blockbuster. (The only reason I actually watched the movie was because my friends forgot to find out the movie times (we wanted to watch 300 again)) But damn, this movie is good. Acting, I will admit, was maybe a 7/10, the action, storyline, and even those little annoying plot twists at the end were great. My Best Movie Ever (BME List) List goes as:

1. V For Vendetta

2. Spaceballs

3. Shooter 

4. Office Space

and so on, and so on.

Afterwards, maybe a week or so later, I went to the good ol’ New York City Auto Show. Thanks to the fact my car’s in the shop, I took the ferry, which was great. The entire thing was like concept car heaven, super-futuristic cars on rotating stages even though half of them wouldn’t get past concept, and 40% of that 50% would be radically redesigned before release. The best part was the Lamborgini section, mostly because they have the wow factor of the concepts, but the knowledge that these cars are for sale, right now. The Jeep trail, er, ride took a close second. It easily demenstrated the Jeep’s offroad capabilities, but I’m still not convinced since this track was laided out specifically for the Jeeps.

Finally, a little thing about disk drive space. After a mere 1 year of owning this laptop, I’ve used nearly the entire hard drive. And I probably need a few more gigs in the future, so I’m looking for a good external hard drive. Any suggestions would be great.
