Perspectives of a Canadian in the Old/Deep/New/Geographic South: This is where I ramble on about nothing in particular and post a few nice pictures.
Went to see X-Men 3 last night. While my feelings were mixed, overall I enjoyed the movie. It was mostly non-stop action with plenty of CG effects. Those who are easily offended by deviations from the established canon will probably be better off skipping this movie because there are alot of them, and some of them are pretty major.
Lots of new characters that should be familliar to X-Men fans are introduced although not in any meaningful role. They appear more as cameos than anything else which left me wanting more. It was like the writers were trying to say to X-Men fans, “Look at these characters from the comic. See, we’ve actually read it, but what do we do with them?”

3.5 stars out of 5.
MT 3.3 will be going into open beta soon (next week) and it looks like there are a lot of changes that should make blogging life easier for non-techies.
I shall be looking forward to seeing a more comprehensive changelog for 3.3 and kicking it’s wheels soon.
A good speech has a beginning, an end and no middle – D Wilson, teacher
This one comes from one of my high school math teachers who gave an address at our commencement. It’s something I always try to keep in mind when I have to give talks and presentations.
Ok, fresh new design (actually one of MT’s standard StyleCatcher templates) and updated templates. Having a weird issue in the individual entry archives. For some reason the MTComment tag will only show one comment even if there are more.
Very puzzling. I’m thinking maybe it has something to do with dynamic publishing. I’ll have to spend some time digging into it later.
Update: Cool, I seem to have fixed the problem by upgrading the Smarty bundled with MT3.2 to the latest version. At least I think that’s what fixed it…
