Now let's just get this out of the way.. I don't like rap. Nor do I like really old things. But put them together and you get this.
The sync on this is AMAZING. I find myself craving this video like a drug every month or so. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

AIR Is Good.. Damn That Lying Spongebob!
So today's nerdy post is about Adobe AIR® (I put the trademark in case they wasnt to close my blog like they did FreshAIRApps) but basically it is a cross-platform runtime that lets you run web applications on your desktop.. think widgets, only epic.I am currently in love with it. Why? I'll tell you why! I now have hulu, Pandora, Twitter, and the best RSS aggrigattor in my humble opinion running on my desktop.. whenever I want it to.. without a browser!
Look!
Click it for a bigger view, but thats me using twhirl (Twutter app), Snackr (the RSS agrigator), and Pandora. No, I dont have a task bar because I use rocketdock.. which I also love.
So I really suggest you try AIR, and go to FreshAIRApps (soon to be refreshingapps.com) from the link above and check out the showcase. Also there are development tools for the real techie types.

I'm Trying Something New
Now, I know I said I was going to talk about music on Tuesdays but, frankly, I don't like writing about music, and it's not like I'm talking about anything new or unusual. So I'm going to talk about something I do like to talk about (talk.. about): Tea!
That's right, tea. Since I'va started working again I've been given the opportunity to buy tea again. It's not your average, run-of-the-mill, store bought tea thath everyone is used to. It's real, whole-leaf, fresh, tea kettle and all tea. And I've decided that each week on Tuesday I'm going to recommend a flavor to you!
First off, lets talk about where I get my tea.
Adagio is definitely the best place for teas, and if you're just starting out, I highly recommend trying the flavored tea starter kit, as the flavors included are quite delicious. I, myself, enjoy tea sweetened, but it is up to you. It is definitely much healthier unsweetened, but I'm a real American (sadly).
So, on to today's flavor, and we'll start with something basic: Vanilla.
Hot or cold, sweetened or no, Vanilla is by far my favorite flavored tea ever. It's so smooth and just the smell of it makes me feel better. I look forward to buying a pound of it in the near future as I use it alot. either by itself, or to blend.
So start drinking REAL tea people. I promise you wont regret it!

It Was Better Than I Expected
Sadly, this weekend I was unable to see Hellboy 2. So, as I promised, I'm reviewing last weeks big release; Hancock.
I was pleasantly surprised by Hancock. After trudging through the first hour, the ending, though predictable, was rather refreshing. The movie definitely had it's flaws though. It tried way to hard to make us hate Hancock in the beginning... WAY too hard and the music was really quite annoying. I also thought Will was miscast. Don't get me wrong, I think Will Smith is a great actor, I just don't think this role was for him
On the flip side, the movie was actually funny. I lol'd 5 times, and chuckled quite a bit. It should come as no surprise that it was Jason Bateman that made me laugh four out of those five times, simply because he is brilliant. Not to mention Miss Charlize Theron is eight shades of gorgeous. I also liked the mythology behind the super powers, which made an odd sort of sense.
I'm not really sure I'd recommend it to anyone, at least not while WALL-E is still in theatres, but it's worth a view if you have the time/money, especially if it's paired up with another movie at the drive-in (which was WALL-E =D).
