Posted: 23rd September 2008 by Travis Thomsen in Complete Unrelated

While surfing the Video Copilot forum last night I came across this short film called Suddenly by Magnus Engsfors.

The IDE cable went bad and not the hard drive. I think I’m going to go backup my server now.!

Ungh travel. It was a long as flight 8HRs and a 5 hour time change. I don’t know how my mother did it when she was a flight attendant. If you going to travel on a really long flight I highly suggest booking First Class. Coach sucks, it’s like a damn cattle car. No room [...]
