The last stand of the … 301 - Or Bush vs Iran |
Digg This !
|
We’ve all heard of the movie 300. Some of us even liked it. I, personnaly, saw it twice in the week it came out, on an imax screen, and already a few times on DVD. Visually, it’s one of the most amazing things I’ve seen on a screen.

To do so, they find the perfect battle field: a narrow passage between steep cliffs and the sea. The battle happened in Thermopylae. They fought with courage and bravery, and managed to held the Persians for a few days, killing tens of thousands of soldiers.

I installed wordpress on this domain 28 days ago.
Since then, I managed to post on average one post every day, received about 20 comments and pingbacks (ok, 80% of comments are from my friend Michael), posted about politics, religion, business, and any thought that crossed my mind, used my Tumblr as a “receptacle” for all my feeds, … I actually managed to do exactly what I expected and understood by myself what the difference between blogging and micro-blogging.

I’ve been reading all the posts since yesterday regarding the new TWC pricing structure plans (and tests in Texas).
