I saw Pirates of the Caribean 2 last night.  I never saw 1, mostly cause I avoided it like the plague and tried very hard NOT to see it.  Well, a series of circumstances led me to see 2 last night.

After listening to my fellow viewers whine alot, I started thinking about movie trilogies; characteristics of them, how they succeed, how they fail, etc ( Read more... )

One of my very least favorite phrases in the english language:

So I'm thinking of entering the Toyfare Scavenger Hunt.  I don't really care about the prizes, it just seems like it'd be really fun to do.

Anyone wanna help?  You can be on my team if you want!  It'd be super-fun!  If we win something, you'll get stuff!

I look forward to your comments.

This is proabably mandatory for me to write, so here goes:

Saw X3 friday night with the siblings.  Had to take sometime for the geek-excitement to wear off (and no, Jesse and Jill, it was no where near as bad as I had it for X2) before I could make a real opinion.

Didn't like it.

EDIT 2:  And now it works.  Am so confused.....

EDIT:  I can't, for the life of me, get lj cut to work.  I apologize, and if anyone gets this new lj system, I'd apprecate help.

There is no God.

I was googling ideas for my sis to display her Zim figures, and I came accross proof that there is no God.  A loving and merciful god would not allow this to ( Read more... )
