Leave it to the Vatican to complain about a religion in a fictitious movie that takes place on another planet. Actually, I heard that when the humans got to Pandora, they found some Roman Catholic Na’vi, but they cut that part of the movie out because of a bunch of liberal atheist movie execs.

Ahh, the Vatican.

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010Oh yeah, I kinda forgot about the blog. Um. stuff happened, mostly WoW playing and ummm..yeah.
On New Year’s eve while playing WoW, my computer started making a loud buzzing noise that vibrated the computer and it was kind of scary. I put it to sleep and put it aside for a few minutes. It stopped making the noise, but it’s had a weird almost grinding type noise since then. Then today and tonight it made the big loud buzzing noise again. Both times, I put it in sleep mode, waited a few minutes and started it up again. It’s very annoying and kinda scary. I might have to haul it up to Madison to get the Mac store to take a look at it and fix it. I don’t have the extended warranty so if cost a lot to fix it, I might have been better off getting the warranty. Oh well. My fault, I should have gotten it when I bought the dang thing.
I also went to see Avatar tonight finally. I had sort of planned on seeing it for the past two weeks, but holiday and work stuff came up. Last week, I wanted to try to go there on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday night and all three nights I didn’t get done early enough to shower and drive in. If I had known there would be so many ads, I probably could have seen it earlier. I wasn’t going to go there on a Friday or Saturday night. Sunday or Monday nights are probably the best nights to see movies. Only people who want to see the movie show up on those nights. Friday and Saturday you get a lot of annoying people there. Those people stay home on Sunday night, it seems.
As for Avatar, it’s an amazing visual movie. There’s lots of stuff in it. The best way to see it is in 3-D (if there’s no I-Max near by). I’m a glasses guy and I think today was the first time where I wished I had contacts, it would have made watching the movie easier. But after a while I had forgot that I had two pairs of glasses on. I tried it without the regular glasses and it was blurry. So yeah, if you got contacts and are seeing the 3D, make sure you wear them instead of glasses. Or just get laser vision correctness before you go see the 3D version….
I haven’t played WoW yet tonight and it’s still making loud noises. I’m thinking I might have to call up the Madison Apple Store and see about getting it repaired. Typical. I finally get some money from the health insurance thing and I’ll have to spend it or at least some of it.
