So it looks like they have Heath Ledger as The Joker and Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent. Hopefully just setting up a future character not actually bringing in two.
luckily they still have Christopher Nolan writing he did Momento and Batman Begins as well as Prestige.

Gary Oldman as Lt. James Gordon

Michael Caine as Alfred Pennyworth
all reprise their rolls, should be entertaining.

been away for a spell, work has been absolutely insanely busy, and work is about the only time I really get on forums and the like.

as an update: i picked up my CPAP machine last friday (constant positive airway pressure, i think) for my sleep apnea deal. i'll have to have the female unit take a pic of me wearing the horrific looking mask to scare you all away ;D

also got an exercise bike the other day, so i've been doing that in addition to using my total gym. hopefully between those two things and the cpap machine making my sleep better I'll be as healthy as a guy my age should be ;D

i know there's other stuff, but I can't really recall it at the moment and i have to get back to work.

welcome back to both of you. Sleeping better is good. I just started dreaming again. I think that's a good sign. I know those masks aren't much fun, but real sleep is worth it.

I'm glad to hear it, LMD! I hope the scary machine thing helps you sleep better! And I do find that when I'm working out, I sleep much better. Less insomnia and I don't wake up as much in the middle of the night. Perhaps it's just because I'm SO DANG TIRED, especially after my double duty pilates/yoga night. But hey, if it works, I don't complain. So, yay you for making some positive changes!!

Very cute.

And an idea that came to me in a dream.

Othello: Hey Iago, what time is it?

Iago: I don't know.

Othello: It's Bulova Sundial time.

Announcer: Yes it's the Iago and Othello Show starring Bud Iago and Lou Othello brought to you by the Bulova Sundial Company with special guests the Andrews Sisters.

Iago: So who are you taking to the big Andrews Sister's dance?

Othello: I'm not taking anybody.

Iago: Why not? You could ask Desdemona. I bet she'd like the Andrews sisters.

Othello: I can't ask her. Every time I talk to her I get tongue tied.

Iago: What's the problem? You like her, right? And I know she likes you. Just ask her. (beat) Say who slipped a ham sandqwich into my lunch box?

Othello: I'm a bad Moor.

Thank you. Though it could have been funnier. In my dream it was. But you know how it is about dream jokes they don't always translate well into awake jokes. Plus, confession, I'm not very familliar with Othello. I know Othello's the good guy, Iago is the bad guy, and the Andrews Sisters only have a very short walk on in act 3. Other than that color me clueless.

I didn't exactly fix the site, more fixed Mai's computer so she could see the site. It wasn't down, there was an issue with the DNS which means the site name " www.fireflyfans.net" ended up meaning nothing, even though the site was still here. It's resolved now. The work around was to set up a domain name record with in windows within the local hosts registry file.

It was nothing to do with your machine, the DNSs had lost the domain bindings for this site, the fix was to add the bindings to the windows Domain hosts file.
