Harry Potter and the Somthing of Something

So I have a (small) confession to make. I actually watched a Harry Potter movie in China. I have no idea what it was called. If they displayed the title during the intro, I missed it. Or maybe it was … Continue reading

Parallel Worlds, by Dr. Michio Kaku

I completed the book last weekend. It’s not very big – about 400 pages paperback. I can’t really review the physics; and the book isn’t very technical or mathematical. It’s a book for everybody and I think that anybody with … Continue reading

Aeon Flux

Just watching Aeon Flux. Gotta be one of the worst movies I’ve seen in a while. A German production, should I have foreseen that? – They do have a few hot chicks in the movie though. Not worth your time … Continue reading
