Go to Google, and search for the phrase "Jar Jar, you're a genius" (including the quotes). This phrase -- that hadn't existed anywhere on the Interweb before 3 July, for some strange reason -- first appeared in Darths & Droids episode 122. It's now on Google's hot trends list.
Feed the frenzy! Search for the phrase, and blog about it!

Really cool video clip
14 months, 42 countries...
On a side note, we did go to see Indy IV tonight, and really enjoyed it. Several people "warned" us that it wasn't as good as the previous movies, but I don't know what movie they saw. The one we saw was terrific (maybe not as good as Raiders, but definitely better than Temple of Doom, jury still out on whether it was better/worse than Last Crusade). It did everything we ask of a movie: we went in, and when we came out some two-and-a-half hours later, we had been thoroughly entertained. So yah-boo-sucks! to all you naysayers! :-P

SWCCG -- the madness resumes
As I said a week ago, Forge's MTG: Forge, errr, Card Warrior, has inspired me to actually start work on a similar project based around Decipher's Star Wars Customizable Card Game which gobbled more time and money than I care to think about from about 1995 onwards.
As a good little Comp205 graduate, I'm going to do a bit of design work before I start putting code in IDE. A bit of work here can save a lot of heartache (and retyping and refactoring) later -- and I'm talking from experience here. Just try doing a group project where everybody goes and does their little part, but come integration day, nothing integrates -- because there was no overall design, there was no agreement on how the parts would work together. I fondly (NOT!) remember the night before integration day (when we had to show our progress to a tutor), a pair of us staying in the labs until well past 1am getting four people's code to cooperate. My wife wasn't too impressed, but the tutor was...
