films ahoy!!
Feb. 4th, 2008 10:09 amnetflix's decision to go unlimited with streaming video has been both a delight and a suck of time in our household. we've got the computer hooked up to the tv as second screen, so it seems all we do is watch stuff we've already seen. this week alone, i finally made gabe watch "the king and i," and he has brought forth "just one of the guys," "little shop of horrors," and "vertigo."
last night, i watched "bush's brain," which made me believe that karl rove is this generation's anti-christ.
and i finally got to see "palindromes," which is neither todd solondz's best nor most controversial. (i did enjoy that that the plot was a palindrome itself. clever.)
i would also like to confess that we rented "son in law" from netflix. aren't you jealous? how long has it been since you've seen pauly shore's best film? he's the we-ee-zal!!
okay. what else?
( the savages, eagle vs. shark, millenium actress )

there couldn't be a happier marriage of appropriate song to send and way to celebrate a tune.
it goes up at 7p.m. eastern time tonight, and NASA is asking everyone to syncronize and play it all together now. set your clocks. spread the love. and watch the event at www.acrosstheuniverseday.com.

wtf with this newfangled URL helpness????? *grumble*
so on one of my communities today, a girl was asking about an old NES game. she couldn't think of the name, and i recognized it as "solomon's key."
i go to wikipedia. i look up "solomon's key." i copy and paste the URL, and it does THIS to me:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon's_Key
which just sets you up for some damn article on king solomon and some stupid temple he had...which is NOT a video game.
wtf?
this is the most counterproductive help feature since the damn MSword paperclip...
