Managed to watch Something's Gotta Give last night. Sweet movie, sad at times. Enjoyed it, but wouldn't describe it as great. Could stand to lose the final scene too.

Booked tickets for Fahrenheit 9/11, going a week today (it opens in the UK on Friday). Really looking forward to it. Not expecting a totally objective view, but then, it's not like what's been coming out of the Bush White House since day one has been remotely trustworthy. My view of Moore has always been that agree with him or not, democracy needs people like him who are prepared to stand up and criticise the leadership. Bush plays a dangerous game when his regime and supporters try to tar anyone who opposes them as unpatriotic, or un-American.

You know what to do about it this autumn/fall.

Okay, so now I have to make a decision. Galeon 1.3.16 came out, and it introduced a GNOME 2.6 dependency. (libgnomeui-2.5.3, which depends on gnome-vfs-2.5.3, which depends on...) So, I'm left in a position where to update my prefered browser, and indeed the default browser in ULB GNOME, I have to build a full updated set of GNOME packages. If I'm going to do that, I'd probably do 2.7, not 2.6, and up the version number of ULB GNOME to match the Desktop release number it represents. I just don't know if I have the time. Gonna think about it, so watch this space...

The webcam's back after my time in Ely (forgot to bring the cam to the office yesterday).
