Not getting back into it, just need this photo for something else...experimental. Check my myspace, if it isn't on there too, I have failed.

Time to give the King a rest. Or rather, time to stop pretending that I am updating this blog. It will still be here so you can relive your favorite moments. For the time being I am starting a new blog of a different sort. Give it a peek if you care to here.

Greedo shoots never
This week I finally purchased and now own the original Star Wars trilogy in its original form on DVD. No cheesy cartoon characters, Han shoots first (actually, Han shoots, Greedo just dies), Luke doesn't scream as he plummits from cloud city, and our heroes celebrate to a festive ewok jam while Hayden Christiansen remains unborn. To honor this momentous occasion, Lucasfilm was kind enough to include, as bonus material, a Star Wars special edition commemorative coaster set. Now you can remember that lively music video in Jabba's Palace everytime you put down your Jack and Coke. You can relive the Death Star's explosion donut everytime you save your end table from an inevitable coffee stain. In other news, a new set of Star Wars toys have been released. Now, it has been years since I have paid any attention to Star Wars toys, but every once in a while, something truly special comes along. Finally, the secret abilities of the Millenium Falcon are revealed. Thats right, the Millenium Falcon splits in half to become "heroic" Han and Chewbacca mechs (robots). I weep for the future.

Snakes on the brain
There you go, yet another "snakes on a (ryhmes with plane)." But this one is mine. As you may or may not be aware, I have been eagerly anticipating the release of Snakes on a Plane for the past several months. But tonight I had had it with the waiting. I had to be among the first civilian crowd to see this awesome movie event. Having seen it, I must say that it was incredible. However, I must stop there. I would go into some light details that don't give anything away, but, honestly, I just do not have the words. How do you describe the Mona Lisa? "So she is sitting there and she is kind of smiling but not really. But it is totally awesome." How do you descibe Beethoven's 9th symphony? "Its, like, like this really great song." In this same vein, I cannot in good concious attempt to describe the majesty that is Snakes on a Plane. See it.
