Writer's Block: And the Oscar Goes To
Dark Knight. With it's comic-book metaphor for the war on terror and deep exploration of it's characters, I think it was the standout film of 2008.

hmmm......
My step-father has massive tumors throughout lower torso, stomach, colon, esophagus, etc... They are malignant and believed to be lymphatic (biopsy is apparently taking longer than normal).

An agenda of change
A guy I work with, a friend and Obama supporter told me I should give the man a chance to see what he's going to do.
