Did you know that if humans disappeared today, in a few thousand years the Chunnel would be the only man-made structure left?
Did you know that if humans disappeared today, the Panama Canal would close and reconnect North and South America?
Did you know that if humans disappeared today, in 4.5 billion years the depleted Uranium [...]
Celebrities Die In Threes, And So Do Cats
Posted by The Gimcracker in Reference Burst Theory on 27. Aug, 2007 | Comments
We know that celebrities die in threes, even though some people don’t seem to think it’s that simple. But I have always found my reference burst theory to be very interesting. It’s based out of a very scientific idea that things seem to get referenced all of the sudden multiple times in a short period, [...]
Deezer: French for Music. Or Weezer. Not Sure Yet.
Posted by The Gimcracker in Music, Stuff On The Internet on 23. Aug, 2007 | Comments
Once upon a time there was a site called Blogmusik or something like that. Well, long story short, they faced legal troubles due to their music distribution policies, but ultimately won in the end, changing their name to Deezer to mark the occasion. It’s a French site but the only time you’ll ever know the [...]

I used to try all kinds of sizing techniques and non-xhtml compliant methods. I tried absolutely positioning a div tag by giving it a left:20% and right:20% attribute, but this didn’t work in all browsers (I’m looking your direction, IE). I tried wrapping the whole div tag in a ‘center’ element, but we won’t even [...]
The Bourne Ultimatum: 1/10 Berating
Posted by The Gimcracker in Beratings, Movies on 06. Aug, 2007 | Comments
The Bourne Ultimatum is the third and final installment of the trilogy about former CIA assassin Jason Bourne. I must say, I was blown away.
The Good
The cinematography, score, directing, acting, stunt effects, and plethora of settings were all superb. This movie did something that few movies are able to accomplish, especially in this day [...]
Snow Patrol Again; This Time 1st Row
Posted by The Gimcracker in Music on 05. Aug, 2007 | Comments
The show was shorter but the venue was much better than when we saw them in Chicago at The Aragon. They still interacted with the crowd just like in Chicago and they still played their songs with amazing energy and spirit. This was the last show of their North American tour, and possibly their entire [...]
