Ok, So NOT The Way I Wanted To Start My Weekend.....

First.

Gray.

CHEST.

Hair.

.......

Fuck.

Ok, So NOT. FUCKING. COOL.

From www.variety.com,
"Justice League" is no longer moving faster than a speeding bullet.
Warner Bros. let the options lapse on the young cast that director George Miller chose to play DC superhero staples. The studio, which had set Tuesday as its greenlight deadline for the pic, confirmed Wednesday the project is on indefinite hold.
Project now most likely won't get under way until late summer or fall at the earliest.
Cast members were informed late Tuesday their options would not be exercised, but they were also assured the studio is determined to make the film with them in it. But before that can happen, there are several problems to be resolved.
The studio's reasons included not getting the official response it needed on tax breaks from shooting in Australia. And while WB execs like the script they got from Kieran and Michele Mulroney, it would benefit from a little more work, something that isn't possible because of the writers' strike.
Some were surprised the studio didn't exercise cast options anyway. The deals gave WB the flexibility to exercise the deals immediately, or in July, and the actors will be making salaries in the low six-figure range. While Adam Brody, cast as the Flash, has a track record, most of the cast comprises such newcomers as Armie Hammer Jr., who plays Batman, and Megan Gale, who will play Wonder Woman.
The studio risks losing them to other film jobs. But it is likely most if not all the cast will make sure to be available starting late summer and fall, just in case. That's because of the starmaking potential of "Justice League."
Studio had set this week as the deadline to greenlight the superhero tentpole, which it was racing to get into production for 2009 release. That was always considered a dicey proposition, particularly when the writers went on strike, and because the film needs to be completed before the SAG deal expires in June.
With "Justice League" on indefinite hold, the studio has a superhero gap on its 2009 slate; status of the next "Superman" pic is also uncertain.

Ok, So When It Rains, Apparently, It Pours

So, not only do I have a 40 pound beehive in by backyard, and no money because of the Michelin Man raping me, but I came home last night to a problem, which I thought nothing of, but came home tonight to find it greeting me before I even got through the front door.

The smell, at least.

Five words.

Dead

Possum

Under

My

House

The house REEKS right now....The only place I could find that would take care of it for me would take no less that 310 dollars, and if I wanted it done tonight, it would be an extra 100 - and that is all for the first hour.

Oh, and did I mention I am running a conference on Friday all day that I need tomorrow to plan for?

I'm lighting candles and worrying about it tomorrow...It's too dark to do anything tonight about it......

Fuck.

Ok, So Because Bees Are Not Enough......

Ain't it pretty?

Yeah, the dealership says I need four of these?

I'm waiting for an estimate as we speak.

Pray for me.

Oh, and eight dead bees were on my back stoop this morning. Otis ate two of them before I could stop him. Stupid dog.

Update - The total is $1100.00. Looks like I'm not going to Philly for Christmas.

Ok, so I am continuing the war with VISTA

So now the recorder I use for podcasts doesn't work....so no minicast like I was going to try to do with Taffy tonight. I am not sure what to do. Is Pod Is My Copilot done before it was able to really start?

I have a couple of options here....

1.) Call Gateway and see if they will send me a restore disc for my old computer. Though Lord knows how much THAT would cost....if they can send it to me, then I will take this computer back.

2.) Just take this computer back and get a Mac, which I had been thinking about doing anyway. I'm just tired of Windows and have heard nothing but good things about Macs. Problem there would be the price and the fact that I wouldn't be able to play CoH on a Mac.

3.) Suck it up and stick with this computer, and try and work with either BB or some computer savvy friends to try and get my old files including episode 9 off of there. I worry that Episode 9 would be the last episode of PiMC for a while....

I will research this a little more over the weekend, and keep you all abreast (breast....hee hee...) of the situation. The official PiMC review of Windows Vista, however, is this. DON'T. BUY. IT.

Ok, so it's our first real malfunction!

So, Taffy, Rodan and I taped Ep# 2 today, and it ended up all fucked up.

Somehow, my section got a two second delay, so they are answering questions about things I have yet to ask them. And trust me, they ain't that omnipitent, despite what they may think, mmm hm!

We are going to re record, possibly as a couple of smaller, more intimate podcasts over the next few days. PiMC aplogizes for the delay in your podcasting entertainment.
