I got a smexy new monitor today. 19" flat screen plasma LG monitor. It's so freaking awesome. And now I can finally do proper coloring on my art (my old screen was really dark, so my art looked vastly different from my old Gateway monitor to any new monitor).
Also, I saw Quantum of Solace today. It was... okay. A lot better then Casino Royale, but I still don't think of the new movies as true Bond films. 007 isn't witty enough, Q isn't around, and the villains are too serious, and therefore lame. A true Bond villain should be trying to make a raygun to blow up the sun. Not... doing topical, serious things.
But I did see the extended Watchmen trailer. Hooooly shiiiiit, it is going to be amazing.
