Some geek goodness

Here's a cool little snap-in for Firefox. It's called Adblock Plus and it'll get rid of all those annoying ads on your favorite sites. It's pretty easy to use. Here is a pic with no adblock and we get a nice little "you need a new car!" ad from Jeep.



After I do some ad blocking on it that add disappears.




Pretty nice huh. I don't know about you but some of those ads drive me crazy... especially the ones that talk or make noise.

If you get a sec check out Marc Broussard. He sings this song called home and it's my current favorite.



I really dig the southern soul sound of it. Do people still say dig? Well, I dig it. Man... I used to be with it, then what I was with wasn't it anymore... and what was it seemed strange and scary to me. It'll happen to you someday, mark my words!

There is also Appleseed Ex Machina which I just saw.



It's the sequel to Appleseed which a really cool Anime flick. Now, I'm not a big Anime guy but this is definitely worth checking out. The original is better but this is really worth a watch.


Lastly is Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. This is an old game that came out in 2003 but I still play it all the time. I've probably reloaded it a hundred times on my PC just to get that light saber itch out of my system. Anyway, these guys at Knights of the Force made a mod for the game that puts in players and maps for all the movies. It's pretty awesome. They've been at it for a while and most of the bugs are fixed. It's just a really cool mod for easily the best Star Wars game to date. You gotta try it. What can be better than a light saber battle? A DUAL light saber battle!



Ok... geek hat off.

(note* we're taking the kids to Austin this weekend so I should have some good family pics to share)
