Worth Your Consideration #018 - A GF5 Linkdump

• RandomKitty.net provides a review of last week’s Nine Inch Nails show in Manchester, NH that is chock-full of YouTube links. If you’ve seen the band perform live on this tour and want to relive the magic, or if you haven’t seen them yet and you’re wondering what you’re missing, please do check out the YouTubeage. It’s not quite as good as being there, but it comes close.
• In her review, our good friend Beth provides a different perspective on the Manchester show, as well as some thoughts on the Worcester show that preceded followed it. (Thanks to Beth for the correction.) She writes, “Having seen it firsthand from three different angles, it seems to me to have been constructed with an eye for detail I’ve seen put into museum installations, with the view of it from every last vantage point taken into account.” Yeah, that pretty much sums up how I felt about it, and I only saw it from one angle. I’ll repeat this again: if you haven’t seen this show yet, and you’re at all interested in Nine Inch Nails, you need to get your ass in gear right fucking now.

Geek Force Utterz #028 - In-Flight Entertainment?

I finally got the chance to see Iron Man over the weekend, and it was great. Today the whole experience gets even greater with the release of the second interconnected Marvel Comics movie, The Incredible Hulk, and you can be damned sure that I’ll be downloading it from iTunes as soon as I get home tonight.

But this got me wondering about when I’ll have time to watch it. I have flights back and forth to Philadelphia coming up this week, but I’m pretty sure that they won’t be long enough to allow for the viewing of a whole movie.

What do you do for in-flight entertainment, Geek Forcers? In this age when we can watch movies, play video games, or even go old-school and read ourselves a book, what is the best way to pass the time on an airplane? How do you keep yourselves from constantly dwelling on the fact that it could turn into a fiery wreck at any given moment? Let me know in the comments.
