Friends with Justice And Charm

On Saturday, we went to see Friends With Money which ironically stars Jennifer Aniston. Overall, I give the movie a B. The acting was good and the most of the dialogue and situations were interesting but there were problems with it. As is the case with all "art house" films it drags in places. This isn't Joan Cusack's best film by far. Just watching School of Rock shows you that. There were scenes of unrealisticness which I'm not sure is even a word but should be. We all agreed that Aniston was the most attractive of the women yet hers is the character that hates to exercise and can't get a man. WTF? In a related matter, I liked the French maid outfit...

This weekend was the series finale of Justice League. Should series finales be only a half hour? Hell no! While it's true it was the second part of a story that started last week, it was really a stand alone episode and they crammed so much coolness into the last part it should have been an hour in itself. In a related rant, what cartoon am I going to watch now? That was the best one on the air today.

Last night was not the series finale of Charmed but set things up for it. Not to give anything away for those readers that understandably watched West Wing instead and taped it for later, this was the best ending on Charmed since Cole vanquished the Triad. More irony... Next week's episode looks to be "The Piper Show" which makes me very happy but, and this is a bit of a spoiler, why can't they just leave Phoebe, who, incidentally, brought sluttiness to new heights with her outfit last week, dead? Do fans really want her alive and married off? I really doubt it.

Random Comments Into My Life

We did yardwork yesterday. I picked up a lot of sticks. Home Depot sucks on a Friday morning. My father and I went to get a new gascan for the mower and there was only one employee around to help us...and she didn't know anything about how these new fangled gas cans work... So due to a bank error when I reset my bank account so I could accurately keep track again, I had like a hundred dollars less in my account than I thought so my last bill payment put me in the hole. This would've been all right and easily fixed if I had been paid for the last week of my mailroom job but, oddly, I still have not been even though it's been weeks. I don't know if I can accurately convey how infuriated this makes me. If it doesn't happen soon, heads will roll! Also yesterday I re-watched the Enterprise episode "Regeneration"; this time with audio commentary from the writers. They made some valid points I hadn't considered on the issue of if this episode screws with...

And Now, A Lame Quiz!

Your Score : Dionysus 33% Extroversion, 46% Intuition, 55% Emotiveness, 76% Perceptiveness Although deeply emotional, you are extremely lacking in self-knowledge. You are somewhat needy, and when bored, may become very hedonistic. Your life is a quest for meaning, above all else. You are most like Dionysus. You are primarily interested in serving others, but your efforts are almost always unappreciated. You aren't confrontational, you're often out of tune with your own needs and unaware of the consequences of your own actions. You are, at heart, a good person. You are very affectionate, and you are very loyal to your friends and family. You are very reluctant to burden others with your own problems, to the point that this in itself can become a problem for the people who care about you. This is a particular of a more general problem. Dionysus sends wave of ruin throughout his personal life. He is the photographer who seduces his subjects. He is the teacher who seduces a student...

The Neglected Blog

With the discovery of the time-waster that is Facebook, I find I no longer need to waste my time here. This is mainly why I haven't done any quizzes or other memes here in a cat's age. (I'm not a dog person...) They're all over there. Also why tell you all about what's not going on in my life when I can better waste time by making fake money off Lindsay Lohan's hi-jinks? Added to that, you can regularly follow the mundaness that is my life on Twitter. I don't want to say I'll never blog again. Frankly, this site and I have chronicled much over the years and I'm not ready to give it up fully. Every so often, something comes up worth sharing. Case in point, Thursday night, there was a retirement celebration for our outgoing OT professor complete with a guest lecturer from Boston, dinner and a vesper service designed by the professor herself. It was good Thai food, though admittedly not my favorite Asian cuisine, and saw many people I knew. My parents c...
