I feel dirty

Staying up late by yourself with an iTunes gift card and big fat headphones is dangerous. I convinced myself that it was a good idea to purchase the album LOL by Basshunter. After all, it satisfied all my primary criteria for music.

  • Relentless Bass - check
  • Vocals by a dude who is 5 years my junior - check
  • Swedish Lyrics that translate to praises of Warcraft III and IRC - check


I love it.

Children of Men



I can't say much about this movie that hasn't already been said by the critics but I highly recommend it. I got to see it at the very underrated Hazard theatres in Mission Valley on the wide-release opening day.

Favorite Scene: Walking down the stairwell. I can't say more than that without giving a lot away but you will know the scene when you see it.

Least Favorite Scene: The all too obvious Abu Ghraib references when they are getting off the bus. I get it, don't hit me over the head.

Our movie buddies said they had a "Requiem for a Dream" vibe after leaving. I believe they meant that in a positive, boy-that-was-powerful, way.

I really wish we could have seen more of Julianne Moore. Se la vie.
