Safari vs Firefox

Okay Boys and Girls I just discovered why I was not able to put video content on the Frogband Blog. Since I am a Mac I generally use Safari and I was having a difficult time trying to figure out why I was not able to load video on our website. basically blogspot doesn't like safari or safari doesn't like blogspot techno babble, techno babble etc etc. So I switched to Firefox and whaddaya know.... it works. So without further adieu I present to you the Frogband line-up on our blog....ta daaaaaaa.

Flash!!!! Ahhh Ahhhh Worst show on television. Pt 1


When I was a kid there were a handful of movies that have sent me on the road to becoming a filmmaker/actor. Superman, the Star Wars trilogy and the little sleeper movie Flash Gordon circa 1980. When the Sci-fi channel announced that they were revamping flash gordon, I was excited. and then.....my seventh sense (able to sense a bad show or movie) kicked in and I tried to fight it. then I started to see pictures on the set and then when I saw who they chose to play Ming the Merciless (and yes he is the merciless) I ignored my seventh sense. No disrespect to the actor playing (hey any work is good work) but dammit where's Max Von Sydow? Even then I said to myself just wait until it plays and give it shot. So I set my dvr to record it and then i watched it.... This show is ultimatly the worst science fiction show I have ever stomached. I'll write more later as I am packing in preperation to drive down to LA but I promise to give a detailed reason as to my displeasure.
