Metropolis
Off to see the restored version of Metropolis, found 'recently' in Buenos Aires. This should be interesting. I can hardly wait. They'll be popcorn with real butter, an organ on site with live music and comfy seats. What more could one ask for?
Let's hope the dog will be a good pooch in the office while I'm gone. -
Squirrelssssssss!!!!
The little swine, sure they're 'cute' but that's just a clever disguise, are beheading my little yellow straw flowers, not the purple ones mind you, just the yellow ones, and eating them. I have gory, metaphorically speaking, decapitated flowers lining my flower box. Did I mention the fact that I've yet to actually see a strawberry as apparently ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
In memory of family and friends who have lost the battle with cancer; and in support of the ones who continue to conquer it! Post this on your LJ if you know someone who has or had cancer. 93% won't copy and paste this. Will you? -
The SciFi Community and the SGU Controversy
You know what I've learned lately reading all the comments concerning the latest controversy surrounding SGU's infamous casting call sheets for Episode 15? There are a lot of bigots in the scifi community. There's a lot of very neat, open minded people as well but there ARE a lot of narrow minded bigoted people in a genre that seems like it would ( Read more... ) -
High Anxiety and the Modern World
I know that a lot of people say that Blazing Saddles is the best Mel Brooks film or perhaps Young Frankenstein; of the two I like the latter more but if I were to pick the best Mel Brooks film it would have to be High Anxiety. I love this film. It's a wonderful homage to Alfred Hitchcock and all the performances are spot on from Harvey Korman to ( Read more... ) -
Killer Hair and Hostile Makeover or The Mousse Ate My Brain
Okay, so this weekend I find myself watching LMN, also known as one of the Women in Peril Channels. I am introduced to Lacey Smithsonian, a plucky, intelligent young woman with a penchant for vintage clothing and finding murders in the most unlikely places. The actress plays her as sweet and sharp (although her choice in men is questionable, more ( Read more... ) -
Supernatural Season Finale
OMG! That was awesome and let's hear it for the Angel Castiel! My man! or My angel! His choices restored my faith in the good guys. And thank goodness Ruby was exactly what I thought she was - a lying b*tch. The scales have been balanced and there's no such thing as a 'good' demon. (and apparently not a lot of 'good' angels either). LOL ( Read more... ) -
Deadliest Warrior
I've become strangely enamored of this show. It's on Spike TV and it's basically a bunch of guys hanging out and shooting the breeze about whether a Spartan could beat a Ninja or a Samurai could beat a Viking in a one on one death match; and holy cow, someone gave them money and a bunch of high tech computer programs and said 'go forth and make a ( Read more... ) -
Dog Park Nazis
Okay, so I'm in Arizona taking classes for work. Since I was going to be here for a week I decided to drive and I brought the dog. She stays at doggy day care while I'm in class and at the hotel with me at night ( Read more... )
