Quick Avatar/Dollhouse

I've been meaning to blog about actual life events, like thanksgiving and skiing and new years and... but just haven't been in the writing mood lately.

But two quick items:

(Minor Avatar spoiler): When Jake is getting onto the back of the giant dragon thing, hiss thought is that it is the biggest thing in the sky and doesn't get attacked so it probably doesn't bother looking up. I really think that I've heard almost the exact same thing before, but can't seem to remember from where. Does anyone know what I'm thinking of?

(Minor Dollhouse spoiler): I'm 95% certain that the company I work for made an appearance in the last episode of Dollhouse. When Victor hands Tommy a piece of circuit board to burn, the main chip on that board has a big M on it, I'm pretty sure it's the logo of the company I work for (pausing on hulu is a bit too fuzzy for 100% certainty). My guess is that it was from a hard drive they had broken apart.

Motion Sensors

Remember that Better Off Ted episode where the company decides to control the whole building with motion sensors, but it turns out the sensors only see white people? Yeah, way to go hp.
