We finally got to watch Night at the Museum, and even though it was clearly made for a younger/tinier audience, I have to admit that I was impressed with most of it. For one thing, the special effects were really well done and I really enjoyed watching all of the characters coming to life (yeah… the T-rex is well done!). Also, the story is pretty much straight out of a kid’s imagination. Who, as a kid, hasn’t dreamed of seeing all the things they see at a museum come to life? It’s very cool that they have put that on film for us to enjoy.
Otherwise, what made the movie work for me was Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Rickey Gervais, and Dick Van Dyke, of course. The cast was a lot of fun. All in all, it’s more of a kid’s movie, but every once in a while, that’s just what we need: A feel-good movie. A movie that brings back the kid in us and makes us feel younger again, sort of like Dick Van Dyke in the movie!
I’ve spent the whole day cleaning up both my computers. I’ve been wanting to free-up space on my powerbook for the longest time. Mac is brilliant if you have enough space to support its needs. So I manage to free-up 7 Gigs, by mainly backing up old pictures and erasing some old programs I wasn’t using anymore… Anyways, this post is not really about macs and clean-ups, but about a new finding for wordpress addicts. I wanted to write about this cool new importer/exporter for people using Wordpress 2.0. I haven’t updated for a while (why would I, when I have everything that I need on this version?). Turns out that I needed this cool little gadget that comes pre-installed on the new version: XML Exporter/Importer for wordpress. Pretty neat.
Yes, the site is undergoing some changes and will soon (very soon) be moved to my very own domain (www.bonuel.ca). Right now, I have our wedding site there, and very soon I will have my blog at www.bonuel.ca/blog. Anyways, that’s the future. If you haven’t visited our flickr account lately, I suggest you do so. There were many updates there and you’ll discover that we were just in Jamaica for our fabulous friends’ wedding! What a blast! Now off to do more computer-geek things. Cheers
