No reward is worth this ... oh, wait ... after seeing those pictures, hell yes it is!

So I totally missed all the festivities happening on G4 yesterday regarding the 30th anniversary of Star Wars. I am a fan of the movies, might even be a geek for them, but wasn't too caught up in the whole hoopla. However, after seeing the pictures of Attack of the Show's Olivia Munn dressed up as Princess Leia I am now going to have to find a way to DVR the replay. Christ! She is damn fine! Link to the pictures on Attack of the Show's site is following now:

Attack of the Blog: Olivia Munn as Princess Leia

I've only recently started watching Attack of the Show regularly. I had watched its precursor, The Screen Savers, back before G4 bought TechTV. After G4 purchased it and then changed the format of the show I stopped watching as I wasn't too interested in where it was going. I don't know why, but about a month ago I decided to give Attack of the Show another shot and now I am really liking it.

In other news, I have started putting some of my pictures back online from some of my past vacations. If you go to the following site:

you will see pictures from my trip to California in 2003. I will be adding pictures from my trip to Japan in 2005, and then pictures from my last two trips to Las Vegas. So keep an eye on that site as I will be updating it with more and more content.

Hope everyone is doing well. As always, I am working on some personal projects that I hope to reveal very soon. My best to you all.

Dwarf Cage Fighting follow-up

Now, some may not have believed me when I mentioned that I was going to an Irish bar here in town to see dwarf cage-fighting. But here is the pictured advertisement, right off the bar's website (image used without permission; if contacted, I will remove it without question).

I made it to the James Joyce about 19:30 that evening. The bar was still getting patrons as it had just opened. Met X, who had arrived a few minutes before me. A friend and coworker of mine, Ed, made it a little while later but well before the events started. I could go on about how it was, but I figure I'll let pictures speak for me. I apologize if the quality is not too good, but this is the best I can do with my cellphone.

The cage.

The combatants.

He seems pretty happy oil-wrestling Ms. Ireland.

Updates

I hope to have some updates real soon. I have some personal projects I am finishing up, and I want to make sure everything is working the way I want before I post anything about them. Hopefully, I will have some fun stories to tell about my excursion later tonight. Myself and some of my friends from work are going out to the James Joyce Irish Pub in Ybor City. Evidently, tonight they are having a cage-fighting match ...






... a Dwarf Cage Fighting Match!
