Dragonlance Movie

The best story short of Lord of the Rings is coming to the silver screen, In fact i would have a hard time shoosing between the two as my favorite. The first book in Margret Weis and Tracy Hickmans Immortal Croncicals Trilogy,Dragons of Autumn Twilight , is being cast as we speek. Kiefer Sutherland is assuming voicing duties for Raistlin Majere, My favoried character in any novel in all time and space.

Other Casting is as follows.
Lucy Lawless ("Xena: Warrior Princess") as Goldmoon
Michael Rosenbaum (Justice League's Flash) as Tanis Half-Elven
Michelle Trachtenberg ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer") as Tika Waylan
Fred Tatasciore (Flint Fireforge)
Rino Romano (Caramon Majere)
Jason Marsden (Tasslehoff Burrfoot)
Mark Worden (Sturm Brightblade)

Even as i Write this poast my brain has not yet accepted that this might be real. I think it's a defence mechanisim as the sheer power of this announcement if taken in all at once would shurly destroy a persons mind, rending it a mass of grey ooze.

These where the first books i could literaly not put down. When I was finishing the 3rd book I would take it to school and every free second I had I was reading. The break between clases, Lunch, Whenever the teacher was not looking. Every free second.

Fucking Hell!!!! It's a good day.

Cheep Random Crap!

Well It's been a while since my last post, Ive been a bit busy but i think it's time to say something.

Internet purchases, I Initially resisted this trend but I have been ever increasingly seduced buy the deals you can find there. Amazon and Chapters are always a good source of deals. The key here is if you order enough the shipping is free, this is where you usually blow your deals the shipping and duty. The first few times I tried getting good deals online I got hit buy duty which i expected but I also got hit with brokerage fees. Ah this is what they never tell you about and It can make that $100 saving on a digital camera much less of a deal. When I bought my camera i had to end up paying $50 duty and another $50 for brokerage fees for UPS to fill out the paperwork and do all that governmental crap. Robbery I say, I contested it and cleared the camera through customers myself which involved driving around the airport for 3h standing in lines at UPS, Canadian customs and then UPS again. With all the time and effort It probably would have cost me less to just let them clear it but It's the principal of the thing that made me do it.

Now i generally order online to get things I can buy anywhere else. ThinkGeek is all I will say about that.

A new site however has come to my attention that has the potential to be very cool, It's called WOOT!. One item per day is put of for sale at 12:00 midnight (10:00 pm here in Vancouver). They sell that item till it is sold out and then nothing till the next day. The secret is that they are amazing deals and shipping is $5. No matter what you buy the shipping price is always the same. The products are fairly random, and a lot of time they are crap but you can find some really cool things. I think they work as a clearance warehouse. The catch is they will only ship to the US so you need to find someone there who can forward it to you. Or alternatively if you live in Vancouver you just need an American PO box and jump across the border to pick up you mail once and a while.
