I launched the Our Solemn Hour site and started writing
There isn’t much there at the moment, but I launched the Our Solemn Hour site today. Hopefully, the story will start flowing with the same ease the characters are popping in my head. I want to thank you all in advance for your support over the next month writing. This world really wants to come into being, and together, we can make that happen.

I really need to Save The Cat
Oh, how time flies. I want to participate in National Novel Writing Month, but as usual, I lost track of time and have absolutely nothing ready to write.
Faint images flutter around the corners of my mind, but nothing concrete enough to move forward on. I need to hunker down and trust the story will form.
No bias. No preconceived notions. Just me and a cat that need saving. If my muse is gentle and kind, then I'll find the story by the first.
If you have any suggestions, I'm open to hear them.
So they are planing a Highlander reboot…
I really don’t know what to say about that. I love this movie and the TV show, but I cannot say that I think the movie was perfect. I do have a couple concerns about a remake though.
1. Sean ConneryHow can you replace Sean Connery? He is an actor who has no modern counterpart.
2. Queen’s SoundtrackHow could anyone improve on that?
3. Clancy Brown
So they are planing a Highlander reboot… Clancy Brown is the perfect villain. He will be harder to replace than Sean Connery. While I won’t say it is impossible to make a good Highlander reboot, the odds are stacked against it.
I bet Brian could build an AT-AT with these cutouts
I wish I hadn’t said that now… he might actually try. sigh Well, I guess it will be useful to keep the kids off the lawn.

Boba Fett caught himself an alien
Boba Fett caught himself an alien You know, this is one mashup movie I think I would go and see. The idea of Boba Fett hunting an alien sends a perverse chill down my spine. The only thing I think would be more fun would be to watch him go after a predator. ▼ Reshared Post From Branden Haize ▼ "The Bounty Hunter", art by Freddy. http://graphicgeek.deviantart.com/ #Artwork #StarWars #Aliens http://click-to-read-mo.re/p/3Kjq
My new MacBook arrived
I didn't think it was going to get here till around Halloween, see you can imagine my jubilant surprise when it arrived earlier today. It took me a little while to get everything moved on to it that I wanted, but now I'm ready to rock.
I don't want to be too much of a Mac fan boy, but it really is a thing of beauty. It probably has a lot to do with the fact that I waited so long to update my system. It's going to take me some time to be used to a machine that does what I want to do when I want it to do it.
As I sit here dictating this post, I am overwhelmed by the many things I wanted to get done, but didn't have the power to do. I should be able to get a lot more writing done, and a lot faster. The best part is, I really will be able to work wherever I want to again.
So now, I need to tap down my excitement, and focus on getting things done.

Russell Brand May Have Started a Revolution Last Night
Russell Brand May Have Started a Revolution Last Night:
When did Russell Brand become the voice of revolution?
I never thought I would cheer Russell Brand on as he argues for a political revolution, but dammit, I am mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore. We need to build an alternative to our broken political system. The system itself needs fixing, not just the politicians. There has to be a better way.http://click-to-read-mo.re/p/3HP7

No Parks and Rec for 3 weeks? NOOOOO!
NBC Pulls 'Parks & Rec' -- But It'll Be Back:
No Parks and Rec for 3 weeks? NOOOOO!
So, the Voice, and a Saturday Night Live Halloween special are bumping one of my favorite shows. I cannot wait for the traditional TV model to pass away, and for the networks to embrace the internet.http://click-to-read-mo.re/p/3Fxk
