Have you seen Repo! The Genetic Opera yet?  I don't know that any description I could give would really be accurate to tell you about this movie.  I could compare it to Rocky Horror Picture Show; but I'm not sure that's a fair comparison.

Really, I would suggest that people try watching it at least once.  Not because it's good, mind you.  But ( Read more... )

I like movie trailers.  When it comes to social opportunities and chances to spend time with my friends, I am FAR more likely to show up early to something if a movie is involved, because I want to see the previews.  Mind you, I've almost always seen all of them by the time they are in theatres (thank you Yahoo Movies); but there is something to be ( Read more... )

Day before yesterday, Debi picked up the Dark Knight, and we watched it with Chad and Aimee.  I'm sure you've all seen or heard of the movie by now.  Watching Heath Ledger fully invest himself into that role, there were so many aspects of it I found fascintaing.

More than anything, I was amazed with how easily the stories came to him.  No matter ( Read more... )

From Luke 6:42 
"How canst thou say to thy brother, 'Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye,' when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye."

I've had several ( Read more... )

So, the election has come and gone.  America has decided who will be its 44th President.  And, ironically enough, I was in Arizona yesterday; and I got to speak to some people about their thoughts on the election.  One of the most amazing things we talked about is how quickly the determination was able to be made.  I was watching the election ( Read more... )

"People are bastard coated bastards with bastard filling." - Scrubs

I like to think of myself as a good person.  I've mentioned in a earlier entry that most people would say the same ting about themselves.  Sometimes though, it seems as though there is nothing we can do to prevent hurting someone else's feelings.  Yet, at the same time, I'm always ( Read more... )

Politics.

Just the very mention of the word brings something to almost everyone's mind.  Maybe you picture apathy, corruption, hope, change, conformity, status quo, optimism, vision, deceit, respect, tradition.  Whatever you think about, clearly there is something about politics that ring similar to your feelings on America in general.

Yahoo has ( Read more... )

Growing up and going with my parents to the grocery store, I was often curious about the choices of music that were playing on the store intercom system.  It didn't make any sense to me that they would play music that seemed so "out of date".  After all, the meat and veggies are fresh, why shouldn't the music be as well ( Read more... )

So, a symbolic milestone has been crossed, at least for me. I often ask people, what of significance have you learned since your last birthday; but I don't usually end up having an answer for said question.  This year, however, has been somewhat of an epiphany for me.  An epiphany that I would like to share with you, since you are taking the time ( Read more... )

For those of you who know me, I would say that I look "average" in every discernable way.  I wouldn't consider myself looking any more or less noticeable than any other person; and I would say that my dress doesn't really stand out as being anything like "Corporate Colors".  However, for some reason, no matter where I go, I still have this almost ( Read more... )
