Blip on the Radar: February 2008

http://markpalermo.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html

Blip on the Radar. Thursday, 28 February 2008. Stuff They Won't Teach You in School. A 10 year-old girl from Montana named Maryn Smith won a National Geographic. Contest for creating a mnemonic to remember the order and names of all 11 planets in our solar system. I thought Pluto was cancelled as a planet, and it seems unfair that National Geographic. Would throw dwarf planets Ceres and Eris on top of that. So what did Maryn Smith come up with? Smith isn't alone in her lack of mnemonic poetry giftedness&...

Blip on the Radar. Sunday, 21 October 2007. Last week I was in Vegas, because my friends were going and I'm trying to uphold my rep as the Nicest Guy in Hollywood. In my 2 day stay, I discovered that Las Vegas is at once America at its finest (and by finest I mean lowest), and kinda cool provided you can ease yourself into a level of stupidity that lets you get off on its extravagance. Software guys, huh? You're software guys, right? I can tell.". Yeah, Microsoft," Joseph lies. They may be the most unfai...

Blip on the Radar: September 2007

http://markpalermo.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html

Blip on the Radar. Sunday, 9 September 2007. The Burj Dubai is about to surpass the CN Tower as the world's tallest freestanding structure. Although Toronto's CN Tower has, until now, been taller than all buildings, it could never take the tallest building claim. It is not inhabitable from the bottom to the top- lacking attractions and amusements like floors and office space. Henceforth, it doesn't qualify as a building. That's your architectural lesson of the day. In my first year of elementary school, ...

Blip on the Radar: Cinema of Death: JOHN WICK and OUIJA

http://markpalermo.blogspot.com/2014/10/cinema-of-death-john-wick-and-ouija.html

Blip on the Radar. Friday, 24 October 2014. Cinema of Death: JOHN WICK and OUIJA. Anticipates critics comparing it to a first-person video game shooter. Intercutting stylized live-action violence with a moment of a gamer thug’s obsession underlines the movie’s simplemindedness: Keanu Reeves is wronged, and, in rock video set pieces, kills those who wronged him, and then it ends. The only spoiler one can reveal is that it has no twists or surprises. In a retrograde way, this is refreshing and it knows it.
