I just came back from the movie theather where I went to see Role Models, a comedy starring Paul Rudd and Sean William Scott. What I saw when I came out of the projection room blew me away! Hundreds of tween waiting in line sitting down waiting to get in to see Twilight TWO HOURS before projection time!! I knew the movie was getting a small buzz especially from teenagers but I had no idea it was coming to this.

I remember watching the trailer of this movie at the beginning of the year and thought it seemed like a good movie but I forgot about it after a while until recently. It seems like the movie took forever to come out and that’s why I lost interest. But the marketing people did a great job for this film. I’ve seen girl having their pictures taken with the posters of the movie in the theather tonight and after all the publicity I’ve seen I feel like paying to see it too.

Even though the critics aren’t positive (which never stopped me from watching a movie before!!! Remember I know who killed me and Captivity?) I’m gonna give it a try and see for myself what the buzz is about.

For the last few weeks I’ve been looking to buy a new bluetooth headset. The one I have is too big and heavy, but it was a cheap option when I needed one. You see, in the province of Quebec in Canada, any use of a hand-held cell phone that does not have a “hands-free” function is prohibited while driving. So unless you have a bluetooth headset, you can’t talk on your cell phone while driving. If caught, the driver can get fined $80 to $100 and lose 3 demerit points.

The bluetooth headset I got cost me $20. It’s a Motorola H300 and I find it heavy because of the AAA battery it needs to operate. The other thing I hate about this headset is the thickness of the hook you need to put behing your ear. I wear glasses and putting this behind my ear isn’t comfortable.

I was watching The Office on NBC last week and in the episode, Pam and Jim were talking to each other using what they said was the world’s smallest bluetooth headset, the Matsuhashi B400.  I looked around on the Internet and I found out the headset they used was a fake one. But it got me thinking about what the smallest bluetooth headsets looked like.

After a quick search on Google, I found a few that called themselves the world’s smallest bluetooth headset. None of them have a hook which I like. The smallest one seems to be the Adtec AD-HSM10. It almost looks like a hearing aid. Then there’s the Invisio G5, the Sagem G4 and the Motorola Miniblue H9. I’m really considering buying the Motorola Miniblue H9 as I have a Motorola RZR V3T but it’s a bit expensive.

The technology is pretty impressive nowadays. I can’t wait to see where it will go next. How small will they go?

On August 28th, 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered one of the greatest and most notable speeches in history.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

Forty-five years later, Dr. King’s dream is coming closer to reality. Yesterday, November 4th, 2008, the first African-American was elected President of the United States of America.

I don’t really follow what goes on in the political world, in my country or others, but I did follow what went on during this last american election. 

Barack Obama is a wind of change to the USA. He is a great public speaker and seems to know what he’s talking about. He will, of course, feel a lot of pressure during his presidency. Not only for being the first African-American in the White House, but also to pick up the mess left by the Republicans in the last eight years. The wars and the economy crisis will also be a great challenge for the Democrats to overcome.

Is this a sign that racism is finaly going away? I believe so. I don’t think it will ever completely go away but this is a step in the right direction.

Let me end this post with the words of the great Martin Luther King:

Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!

I’ve posted this link on my website back in May of this year and I’m posting it again since I’ve changed everything and wanted to make sure you guys still had access to it.
