So I switched internet browsers today, from IE to Firefox. Man was this ever a great idea. Better performance; yeah, straight up faster performance from the Firefox browser. Plus I like the way it handles RSS. The real reason I switched was because IE had started giving me problems on random sites, i.e. I havn't been able to go to yahoo.com in like two months. Every so often I'd try to go to a site and IE would just lock up for no reason, so I finally got fed up and downloaded firefox. It also appears to handle AJAX a lot better, which gamespot uses a lot of, so there's another perk I'm enjoying.

Right, the comic book. Well, I've never been into comics, but I went and got an Iron Man graphic novel. I didn't notice till I got back to the house that it was written by Orson Scott Card, the guy who wrote Ender's Game - one of my favorate novels. Anyway, so I actually enjoyed the comic book. Prolly won't become a collector, but maybe I'll get one from time to time.

Over the weekend I of course saw Iron Man (see my previous blog), and also the Stephen King movie: The Mist. Aside from Schindler's List, and a few other holocaust movies I can think of, The Mist was the most brutal movie imaginable. I really wasn't expecting an ending like that at all. Speaking of Stephen King, don't know if you knew this but I'm a huge King fan. I've read twenty something of his novels, including all seven Dark Tower books. Some of you may know that they made a Dark Tower comic book series. lol. I have to read them. There's just no choice in the matter, I'm a Dark Tower nut. Details will follow when I get around to it.
