Whoa man, that's beats the hell out of the ramen and tuna that I eat.
girlblue:
I was wondering when you would get around to posting that pic.
ok, i saw it again tonight and i take it all back.
the two towers was a great movie. maybe even better than fellowship in some ways.
i think i just needed to see it once to find out what i was gonna be in for, and mull it over for a day before i could really watch it.
the changes are a necesary evil....

I just got back from seeing it. I thought it was fucking great. There were a lot of changes from the book, but I think that more than a few of them made a better movie. I just have one teeny, tiny, complaint.
How many times must we have a scene in slow motion with some one shouting NOOOOOOOOOO....... in the same movie? Otherwise, bitchin' flick.

blah blah blah.
what's there to say really? saw two towers and was dissapointed with a few choices in the story.
i might be a while getting over this.

I kinda felt that way about the first one, but really I think that these are the best the movies could be. Tolkein's work is so original and complex that no one will ever be able to capture what it is like to truely get into his work on film, even if you had a 20 hour miniseries. Tolkein was a poet and word smith. He was a linguist. His stuff just wouldn't work if you translated it verbatum to film. The magic of his voice still wouldn't be there. Just enjoy the film for what it is...an adaptation of a great story.
BTW is the competition over yet?

when did you change your name?
this is not mine, but i will be taking it to the competition in february, to bring a buddy back his gold.. (he's getting out...)
it's a well made of salt dough (technically edible- but not tasty) complete with blue water and a little light to shine up from the bottom.
our theme is hope...

chocolate sauce recipe:
Ingredients
3 tablespoons good quality cocoa (droste is good)
6 tablespoons sugar (maple sugar is good)
3 - 6 tablespoons soy milk
Method
Dump cocoa and sugar into a small pot and mix until together until there are no lumps.
Pour in a little soymilk, and mix together into a runnyish paste.
Heat on low - medium, stirring constantly, for around 4 minutes or until the sugar dissolves and the sauce is hot.
Pour over soy or rice ice cream and revel in being completely evil.

ok, now this one is in progress, and just a practice for what i'll do for the fort lee competition.
sugar scultpure of a grape vine and a botanically incorrect rose "vine" wrapped around it. i think it will have a bird on it too when i figure out how to "blow" sugar consistantly.
tastes like cotton candy.

Mahvelous, dahlink. You're welcome!

Hey! How come I never see these on the dessert line? It's always apple cobbler or peanut butter cookies! 
Seriously, it's beautiful. Did you make a mold first? What did you use for your original? Now *I* want to go to CIA or Johnson & Wales!

i speculate that a lot of people sign up largely because it's a way to get your education paid for. that has been the case for the people i have met, at least.
anyway, my problem is ultimately that the people who benefit the least from the nation's prosperity (lower class families) are asked to make the biggest sacrifice to maintain the way of life we all enjoy. and i don't just mean our freedom, which i tend to feel was safer without the current joker in the big house, but oil and territory and all of that stuff.
