Rocky 6?

Who would have thought there would be another Rocky movie? I remember watching Rocky when i was a young kid. I cant remember exactly which Rocky it was at the time but since then I’ve watched them all (1 – 5) a few times.

They aren’t the best movies, but they are far from the worst either. A good ol’ underdog story. :)

I’ve watched the [new trailer](http://www.apple.com/trailers/mgm/rockybalboa/) a few times now. Not sure really how the movie will be. Chances are I’ll watch it though. The funny thing is, everyone already knows what’s going to happen.

Rocky will have to train up to compete in a fight that, it appears, he will have no chance of winning. He will probably get the crap beat out of him but through some miracle of the human spirit he will rise up and become victorious. Sound familiar? yeah, it’s the plot to all the other Rocky movies, but who cares… right?

I guess I hold off buying the DVD box set a while longer. At least until the extended, extra long, re-mastered, feature packed, DVD box set including the new Rocky 6 movie with extended features blah blah blah comes out. :)

Blogging from TextMate

This is a test post using [TextMate](http://www.macromates.com) and the [blogging bundle](http://www.bradchoate.com/). I’ve been messing around with numerous blog editors for a few days now and none seem to suit me, then i remembered watching a [screencast](http://macromates.com/blog/archives/2006/06/19/blogging-from-textmate/) some time ago on how to post blogs from TextMate.

So yeah, After updating the WordPress markdown [plugin](http://www.michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/) it now seems to work just fine.

EDIT: Seems there was some kind of weird timestamp issue. Updating to the latest blogging bundle version and reposting seems to have fixed it. yay!

EDIT EDIT: Seems the timestamp issue is still there. /sigh

EDIT EDIT EDIT: If you don’t supply a Date parameter when posting, it will use the ‘Now’ date, which seems to work.
