mouseandhat Wednesday: buying online
I would not say that I am particularly savvy when it comes to online commerce, but I suppose I have above-average experience in purchasing items online. I do not dabble in auction sites such as eBay, but as a college student in a town with little more than a Walmart and a Kroger, I did turn to online retailers for most of my luxury purchases. It would be silly for me to write a tutorial on shopping online - get a credit card, fill out the forms and, like anything else, try not to be stupid about it - but I can certainly suggest some sites and services that I have found to be useful and reliable. My luxury buying habits tend toward products that could fit into categories such as technology, music and video games, so if you are hoping for some tips on buying, say, a canoe or some exercise equipment, you would do best to look elsewhere.

If your life had a face, I would punch it
Six years ago, Canadian comics artist Bryan Lee O'Malley brought us a silly yet endearing story. He introduced us to the world of Scott Pilgrim, full of quirky characters, indie/hipster cool and video game references out the wazoo. It started with a nostalgia-fueled cult following and somehow got mainstream enough to bring about a feature film adaptation by none other than Edgar Wright of "Shaun of the Dead" and "Hot Fuzz" fame. The question on the minds of many Scott Pilgrim fans is undoubtedly whether or not the film lives up to the humor and sincerity of the comics. O'Malley has stated that the film necessarily diverges to some extent from the original story, especially given that the last volume was not released until just last month. But, especially with the questionable casting of Michael Cera in the lead role, does the film still have the same feeling as the graphic novels, and - just as important - is it still accessible to a larger public that may not have read them?
