In the World

Somehow, I managed to miss 20th Century Fox being visionary and awesome and getting on board to produce/distribute the 2nd best of the Narnia books.

It looks like “Voyage of the Dawn Treader” will actually get made, and it’s up for a December 2010 release. I hope the series can hold up until “A Horse and His Boy” is made. That’s my favorite Narnia book.

Walden Media really has to be careful, though. The Narnia movie franchise runs the same danger of running out of steam as the Harry Potter movies. That is to say, even though the movie-making is top-notch, the series just gets bored. It’s almost as if the movies themselves get weary of being made. I know that’s anthropomorphizing a film, but that’s the best way I can describe it off the top of my head.

In any case, I’m glad Dawn Treader is back on the docket.

So yeah I’m on Twitter now: @JNori.

I’ll probably use Ping.fm to post to both Twitter and Facebook at the same time. I really like Facebook, but enough people are inviting me to Twitter that I might as well do it.

Let’s hear it for peer pressure!

Woo!

In case you haven’t been paying attention to my blog, outside of Destiny Image I spend a bit of time practiving Tae Kwon Do.

This past Saturdayblack belt and colored belt tests took place at West Shore Academy of Martial Arts. I took some pictures of the colored belt test, but wasn’t too aggressive about getting shots.

But it was fun.

Last week I acquired a new mousetrap for use at work.

You see, Destiny Image is in a rural area, surrounded by corn and wheat fields. We are often visited by mice, which like to crawl into the ventilation system, get stuck, and die. Apparently we don’t get the smart NIMH-escapee mice.

So that brings us to the new mousetrap.

Ain’t she a cute little thing?

She lives behind Warehouse 3, and loves to hang out with the warehouse crew.
