Picking up...

Three weeks and no movies. That's not me, so off I went to see 'School of Rock' to correct that shameful situation. And dude, if you love rock, this IS the movie for you! Jack Black works magic with his ragtag bunch of 10 year olds who perform with a gusto that would stand up to the greats of rock.

Elsewhere, Salon reports about the shameful situation of 30+ year old virgins who are going into counselling to get back their self confidence and learn how to make intimate relationships. This particular therapist has 'clients from U.K., India, China and Australia' who come all the way to Los Angeles and spend up to $10,000 in therapy. (psst.. my $100 therapy would be to suggest a walk down the strip in Las Vegas - it's too hard not to get an offer to 'go to some place more comfortable..')

And now here's something I have to share with you. 1and1.com is offering a 'professional' package consisting of 500M of space and all the scripting features (php, perl, mysql, yada yada...) for the rock bottom price of... $0! Wha t I gathered from their pitch was that they used to serve only big customers and are now beginning to serve individuals, so this offer gives all the features of a professional package free for three years! Go for it guys... and if you need a cheap domain, get it from them or from other cheap place like godaddy. I wonder why register.com still charges $30 or so for a domain when you can get it for $6 on godaddy.

On a parting note, guess what kind of lamps I'd like to get for my house..
