untethered

gusty winds pick up
taut slender kite string snapping
cloud consumed ribbons

Iraq War Coalition Fatalities

geo animation that is sobering to replay.

Two Thumbs down for Hollywood Ending



----------------------
A divorced couple discussing their past relationship:
Woody: "How was our relationship in trouble?"
Ex-Wife: "We didn't communicate!"
Woody: "Well, we had sex"
Ex-Wife: "Yea we had sex, but we never talked!"
Woody: "Sex is better than talk! Ask anybody in this bar!"
Ex-Wife: "Yea.. but you can't..."
Woody: "Talk is what you suffer through so that you can get to sex!"
----------------------
Agent: "What is that?"
Woody: "Remember in the cab, I took a blue pill?"
Agent: "Yea.."
Woody: "Well that was to calm my anger, but it had speed in it... you know what I mean? So, so I took another pill afterward in order to calm down the speed. Well, this gets me back up to speed, where I want to be actually for the meeting."
Agent: "Great, perfect!"
Woody: "Yea, and then that other pill I took keeps me dry when it's raining out"


Despite those gems, I personally didn't enjoy the flick. It almost seems like, for Woody, making a movie is an excuse to be able to smooch with hot actor chicks. When you notice the actress struggling alittle while he is smothering himself on them, I don't believe there is a modicum of acting going on at that point. This leaves the actress and audience feeling queasy.

Two Thumbs up for Pollock

Like many tormented artist, Jackson Pollock was no exception.

Two Thumbs up for The Office

"Life is just a series of peaks and troughs, and you don't know whether your in a trough until your climbing out, or on a peak until your coming down and that's it, you never know whats around the corner. But it's all good! "If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain." Do you know which philosopher said that?... Dolly Parton. Yea... and people said that she was just a big pair of tits!"
