Finally got my car back from the bodyshop. It looks just like new. Still has the new car smell even. When I was returning the rental car I realized I drove it longer than I drove my own car. Man, that really sucks. Stupid accident.

This little digital camera is pretty neat. It looks like something that comes in a box of Cracker Jacks. The site's in Japanese so I can't understand it, but the sample pictures actually look pretty good.

Want to watch HDTV but can't afford a $5000 set? Install this HDTV tuner card in your computer and watch on your monitor. You can even record shows onto your hard drive, just like a Tivo. The card is $399, still a little pricy for me.

Here's an interesting article about how digital photography can endanger the past. Traditionally, news photographers shot rolls and rolls of film, then picked out the best ones about the event to turn in. But they could always go back to find other pictures. With digital photography, they have to delete some pictures because storage is limited. All the other pictures that led up to the event are lost.

Personally, I keep all the digital pictures I take. Even the really blurred, badly exposed ones. I always think I might find a use for them later on, but I rarely do. Oh well.

DVD File reviewed the classic Monty Python and the Holy Grail on DVD. It's 2 discs and it looks like it's packed with extra features. For those of you who still haven't memorized the script, there's an option to watch the movie with the screenplay superimposed on it. Also included is the Knights of the Round Table scene done with Legos. I'm surprised they didn't digitally remove the Castle Anthrax.
