The Nexus of the Universe

Yesterday I watched Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels on STAR Movies.  Now it was obviously censored in places for language, but they also seemed to have cut out other bits of the movie, somehow it didn't seem proper.  I had earlier seen this movie on AXN and I think they did a better job of preparing a TV version of the movie.  By the way I believe movies shown on TV should NOT be censored, but then no one will listen to me, will they.

Also watched today's Titus episode on STAR World.  Apparently, the show is based on the real life of comedian Christopher Titus.  Some of the things that are portrayed in the show (mainly the emotional scars of Chris and his brother, caused by their alcoholic father) are actually very sad, but this show manages to take those situations and make fun of them.  I think it's well written and really funny.

Today I tried out phpBB by installing the files on my web server at home.  Well, like I mentioned before, it is a full fledged forums system.  But it was very slow for me.  If it is that slow on a local computer, I don't know what it will be like on the net!  I'm a bit hesitant in trying it out on my actual site now.

Oh by the way that headline is from something Pablo said to me in a recent email.  He said, "When you think that you are standing on a street that intersects with itself, then you know you are standing on the nexus of the universe".  I haven't got the slightest idea what that means.
