The weather hasn't really checked yet that it is in fact already November and started to go all fluffy and squishy yesterday.

It's around 20 °C and you can actually wear summer clothes. *meep* Not that I mind or anything but I could have forgone my warm boots if the weather!gods gave teh warning a bit earlier. Ahem.

But the most awesome thing? Best. Sunrise. EVAR! :D

Well, I have several versions of the bible but never before one like this. *hmm*

Let Richard Dreyfuss' people go

A new audio-book version of the Bible, jam-packed with stars, has made it to shelves in time for the holidays. Richard Dreyfuss does Moses, Max Von Sydow does Noah and Gary Sinise is David, but they're just the beginning. The cast of 600 includes John Heard (Matthew), Lou Diamond Phillips (Mark), Chris McDonald (Luke) and Louis Gossett Jr. (John). Luke Perry is Judas. Who's Jesus? James Caviezel, who played the role once before, in Mel Gibson's "The Passion of Christ." Producer Carl Amari told The Times that he pitched the project to Christian publisher Thomas Nelson.

"I always thought it would be cool to do a radio drama of the Bible," said Amari, who grew up "not real religious" in the Catholic Church. "You're dramatizing the greatest story ever told. It's God's word. How can you make God's word lift off the page? With great actors, great sound effects and music."...

When Amari projected that the venture would cost $4 million, the entire Thomas Nelson board of directors "looked at me," he recalled. It would be a leap of faith, given that the company's previous audio Bibles had cost at most $17,000 to produce. Then again, just 20,000 copies constituted a bestseller.

The audio Bible -- which is a faithful rendering of the New King James Version -- includes a musical score and evocative sound effects, just like a film."It's verbal Cinerama," said actor Michael York, who narrates both the Old and New Testaments. The 79-CD, 90-hour set costs $125. [full article]

Maybe more people are going to finally "read" the bible. I know for sure that my siblings would jump at the chance. :)

...could talk. O_o

Yup.

It would be HELL.


"Nu-uh, I won't move next to the tomato. She makes me look orange. And I am a red paprika." *looks pointly*

*puts potato nose up* "He is sneezing. I don't want to get wheat germs."


Ah, mom and I were talking about gardening. No idea how that came up though... *wonders*

35 years old and still looking young as ever. And so cute! :D *squishes her socks*
The 1970s Japanese cartoon character has her paws in many enterprises all over the world.

Hello Kitty is all grown up.

The docile little creature with red bow and yellow button nose turns 35 today. And just look at her now! At her inception in the 1970s, few could have known that the cute cartoon would become a global phenom complete with a theme park, TV series and restaurant featuring an image of her sweet whiskered face baked into bread.

I was sorting through the pictures I had taken the last few days and the ones from today made me go all LOLz.

Heavy traffic? Yup! =D





Out of the 8 pictures I took from this angle, four had busy bees buzzing around. *grins*

...use Kleenex® to save the day.

Paper was out and I needed something to write on LIKE RIGHT NOW, so I used Kleenex® as paper.

Very important appointment notes are now safely stored on tissue - the squashy USB stick of the future. *lulz*

Hmm, second time they reset to T-4 because the weather was going "red".

*bites nails* I so don't want another shuttle accident later because they were pressured into fasfastfast.

Live TV Coverage @ NASA. Even though it's stormy, they have some really beautiful images. :D
