Gladiator was good. If I had to decide between Gladiator and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon for Best Movie on the Oscars, I would be killed first because I can't decide! They are both awsome.
Finally I get the change to watch Gladiator. The only two things that bug me about the movie: Russel Crowe's deep voice and Joaquin Phoenix's mark on his upper lip.

It looks like with each new version of Windows the amount of RAM required for installation doubles. According to some beta testers, the minimum requirement for the upcoming Windows XP is 128 MB of RAM and a Pentium 3 processor. Better get that memory now while is still cheap (128MB for ~ $60US)
I saw today Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. It was amazing! Those fighting scenes and the flying all over the place makes you go wow!
The new Game Boy Advanced looks neat. I bet Eitel is going to ask for one. And the cool thing is that it's backwards compatible with the older games.
I guess I forgot to blog this before, but lisette put up the cutest blog layout. I think the best layouts out there are the anime related ones.

Preventing People from Linking to Your Images
Add the following to the .htaccess file:
# Rewrite Rule for images
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER}
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://
You would replace the above with the domain name and path of the page that is referring to your domain. For example: www.their-isp.net/users/mypage/
The RewriteCond directive states that if the {HTTP_REFERER} matches the URL that follows, then use the RewriteRule directive. The RewriteRule directive will redirect any reference back to the referring web page.
