Ok Skar. Brandon said he'd like to do lunch with you too. How's a late lunch on wednesday sound? About 2ish.

Also, I'll include here my thought of possibly doing something with Dan/Rob/Skar tonight while everyone (mostly everyone) is doing their FHE thingy.

Thoughts?

Ok, so here's what I'm thinking. It took too long for this show to get good. I'm watching it tonight and it's actually seeming interesting. I watched a week or two ago and turned it off because it just wasn't very interesting. So, maybe now it's going to be better. But hey, who knows.

So, I went to my Film and Poetry teacher (classes are not related) to have him look over my poetry and he really dug one them so much so as to say it reminded him of his favorite poet, Stevens. But we had a fun talk that I think I'll be enjoying his company here on campus. So, here's the poem that he enjoyed (and helped me to like it all the more):

A shortage of water,
Shortages of electricity,
But if there's one thing
That's in abundance,
One thing that makes us

In the dead of winter,
Or the peak of summer.
Toiling under the sun, or
Waiting on the frozen lake,
An ox or fish,
A hoe or rod.

The man on the street
playing for loose change,
The woman with her briefcase.
The signs everywhere,
Surround everything.

The Lincoln Center show is sold out, but we will be performing in NYC for FREE on Feb. 15 at Borders in Columbus Circle. We are also making our way out to Los Angeles for a regular show and a special all-ages one, so you might want to IM the Blackberrys of any 3-year-olds you know in the LA area. John and I will be accompanied by Mr. Marty Beller at all these free Borders shows, and we will be performing half-hour sets, including new ABC songs as well as personal favorites from our dark, dark past.

Movies and TV / The Final Cut

Now, wasn't this premise used in a movie some years ago? I faintly recall there being a movie that sort of had this same kind of utility in it. Just seems like it was used before....

Ok, is this movie based on that game I've heard of?

Movies and TV / Question about our movie discussions.
« on: January 21, 2005, 12:05:07 AM »
Here's a question. Do "our" discussions about movies ever go into the difference between film and movie? Making distinctions, if any, that exist between that which is known as a "movie" and that which is known as a "film"  taking into account artistry and vision, convention and invention, promotion and marketing, and other considerations. You may cite examples of either word in your response?

Everything Else / A Whole New... Dr. Pepper...
« on: January 18, 2005, 09:28:29 PM »
Yeah, so I found a new pop. It is called "Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper." Yeah, it's very odd. I couldn't find a regular Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper. It only comes in Diet I guess. It has the strangest taste.

Everything Else / Spring "Recess"
« on: January 18, 2005, 03:40:38 PM »
So, I've been thinking. Let's not spend this spring break at home working and just lolling about. So Entropy, mind spending a week with me?  ;) Hahah, but seriously, from March 5th until the 12th I'm off. So, if anyone in Utah wouldn't mind putting me up for the week I could add some spice to your life. This is just spurious thinking. Only put a mindful of salt into this.
