I watched the day after tomorrow with the u-m folks, it was pretty damn entertaining, a good summer disaster type movie. If you’re in the mood for a campy disaster movie, it’s pretty good. basically, the hippy tree huggers were right: screwing with the environment caused the coming of a second ice age. and that’s the plot. tornados, tidal waves, blizzards, people trying not to die, cool scenes of LA, New York, Japan, England getting fucked up thanks to global warming. There were some pretty obvious looking cgi scenes, but overall i thought the effects were pretty good. I enjoyed it more than Troy, though that’s not saying much..

Bleed Like Me
Right Between the Eyes
Space Can come Through Anyone
Nobody Can Win
Looking forward to that, no idea when it’s supposed to be out.
The Dark Tower VI: Song of Susannah will be out in a week and a half! I need to finish up the books i’m reading at the moment (dune messiah, children of dune, starship troopers), or i’m just gonna have to put them aside for a few days while I burn through book VI in the best series ever written. ever.
Oh, the prologue is up for all to read, here.
Also, Full Spectrum Warrior is going to be shipping next Tuesday. I preordered that, free overnight shipping, so i should have it on Wednesday. Not sure how i’m going to have time for everything, especially since I’m going to LA next weekend for my Pete’s graduation. Too many good things!
ok, sleep time. need to wake up early. why am i waking up earlier on the weekend than i do during the week? that’s just wrong…
“No,” Roland said, “a Beamquake. One of the Beams holding up the Tower — which holds up everything — just let go. Just snapped.”
