It seems part of Daft Punk’s score for the upcoming film TRON LEGACY was leaked a week or so ago.
I’ve never been the biggest fan of Daft Punk, techno/house music not really being my thing, but the bits of score I’ve heard in the TRON LEGACY trailers sounds damned good, and this leaked music is pretty awesome. I might just have to pick up the soundtrack whenever it is (officially) released.
Saw a flyer for something called the Ohio Paranormal Convention at the golf course this morning, and my interest was piqued. Especially because the flyer mentioned the convention was for “paranormal investigators and skeptics alike.”
Google reveals that the convention is being held at Hara Arena on August 21st and 22nd. Now I ain’t no fancy, proton-pack wearing investigator o’ the paranormal, but I very much would like to go — I’m just not sure how I feel about $35 tickets. Still, it could be fun for a lark.
Very happy news to report: Trevor, my friend Nate’s dog who’s been AWOL for nearly a week, has been found.
Nate received a call from the pound yesterday afternoon, informing him that a dog matching Trevor’s description had been brought in. He went there immediately and discovered that, yes, it was Trevor.
Apparently Trevor had been squatting inside some building in a business park about half a mile from Nate’s. I believe it was the owner who found Trevor and called animal control, or whoever deals with off-the-reservation pets, and they came and picked Trevor up.
As I mentioned, he’d been gone for nearly a week, and he’s a little worse for wear. His body is liberally covered in scratches, and he’s missing a small chunk from his flank. Honestly, he looks like he went a couple of rounds with a racoon in a cage match, but managed to come up the victor. Nate’s taking him to the vet on Monday to make sure he doesn’t have any infections or anything.
Thank you to everyone — and Neil Gaiman, specifically — for helping to spread the word on Twitter and Facebook, and for the outpouring of kind and supportive comments. You all are awesome.
