My son, The Director, made me a new icon.
Last week I told him we’d need to figure out a way to keep tabs on how long he spent on his computer. Now that he’s out of school, I’m not willing to have him spend the entire day, dawn to dusk, on his computer.
So he sat down and wrote a program that would keep track of how long he’d been logged in, and pop up an alert when it was time to shut down.
He wrote a program. To keep track of his computer time.
He is his father’s son.

We went to see X-Men: First Class last night. Quite a good film, I thought.
Except for the fact that the film was in 2D, but the theater staff never bothered to remove the 3D filter from the camera. So of course the film was darker than it should have been, with muted colors.
I don’t know if no one else ever notices how drab movies look now, or if they don’t know what’s causing it. But I think if I’m paying ten bucks a head to get into the damn movie, the least they can do is take the 3D filter off so it looks better than it would on my TV at home.
