Hello World!

Morning, everyone.

I don't have much to say today, except... has anyone else experienced chronic fuzziness every time the March of the Penguins trailer airs? Everyone who knows me knows I’m obsessed with penguins. Penguins rock. No one beats penguins, not even babies, kitties or puppies or little chicks or ducklings. Penguins just rock. They just rock. I recently visited the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago and spent hours and hours (okay, maybe just 20 minutes) looking at the penguins. And I laughed. A lot. Other people laughed, too, but I get the feeling they weren't laughing with me.

Needless to say, I will not miss this movie if Poseidon suddenly develops a grudge against me. If you're wondering what it's about, it's a documentary that captures the journey of Emperor penguins across frozen landscapes as they migrate -- single-file -- to a familiar, yet mysterious destination so they can mate. Let's face it, if human beings had to march, single-file, to another place just to procreate, we'd be extinct. I know I've called multiple dates off just cause I'm too lazy to pick an outfit, imagine if I had to walk somewhere. So my admiration for penguins is great.

Check out the movie's official website for more info.

CSI Files Two Years Ago

Here's what was hot back in July of 2003:

• Second 'CSI' Computer Game Confirmed
  The success of the first CSI computer game had Ubi Soft considering the release of a second one. "We're working with all the people that helped make the first game so good, including 369 Interactive, Max Allan Collins, Daniel Holstein, and the production staff of the CSI TV show," executive producer Tony Van said. Dark Motives hit the stores soon after.

• First 'CSI: Miami' Comic Announced
  Jeff Mariotte's Miami comic, Smoking Gun was already to hit the stands two years ago. The story revolves around a "mid-day shooting spree" in crowded South Beach, one of Miami's hottest tourist destinations. It's up to the CSIs to sort through the carnage and find out who was responsible for the horrific crime.

• Zuiker Teases 'CSI' Season Four
  Anthony Zuiker promised the fourth season of CSI would see more significant scenes between Grissom and Sara. "We like to play subtexts between Grissom and Sara," Zuiker said. "That was certainly an interesting dynamic last year when the entire lab blew up and she hurt her wrist and he called her 'honey,' and he's made some interesting comments."
