The Sony Hack

Here are three very good links to get you up to speed on the Sony hack and the movie The Interview.

This first link is a timeline of all the events that have unfolded.

The second link is an excellent point about risk and how Sony pulling The Interview from movie theaters may become a clarion call for tort reform (innocent third parties should not be liable to be sued because of something evil a nutcase does).

The third link is just fun. The Sony Hack gets the Taiwan animation treatment.

Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Why can't Sony release the movie The Interview in Canada? Even the North Koreans can't hate the Canadians... Heh heh - John Wayne chased them down an alley... Think about it - even if you won $1 million in the lottery every month for the rest of your life - you would never become a billionaire... Heh heh... Who knew? Barry Manilow's hit "I Write the Songs" was not written by Barry Manilow... Interesting interview of Joss Whedon regarding the new Avengers: Age of Ultron movie... Idea for a new TV channel; ESP-N (the Extra Sensory Perception Network). Psychics would make sports predictions and pick games... Who knew? The Russian economy as measured by GDP is smaller than that of the State of Texas...
