The new Bond film, 'Quantum of Solace', veers as wildly from Good to Bad as frequently as Bond's Aston Martin crosses the center-line on the Italian tollway. On the whole, the film was OK, although I was hoping for the trailer to either Watchmen or Star Trek. Alas, we saw neither. Also: worst Bond theme song ever. I award points for the fact that Bond did not end up bonking the Russian lady.

But answer me this: Why did the villain build his secret base out of exploding concrete?

This diversion was followed by another long day at the office. And this is on a Saturday! Deploying an upgrade often requires working odd hours.
