Really enjoying the "Lost" show so far .. up to episode 12 in Season 1 .. will probably watch more tomorrow ... An excellent show, esp. in character development ...

Surgery!?! Good she's doing well. Still, surgery makes me make a erg face.
You have a long journal. I never can write long journals. Mine only get long if I put pictures in them. And that's just cheating.

Psyched about going to Rites of Spring in 6 days .. I need to find a tent ...
Last day in Vacuumland is Saturday ... Need to get a job soon ... Might do some subbing for a few weeks (school year over soon) .. I think better things are coming ...
Also going to do a repeat of a couple of poems ...

Just finished the very good book "the curious incident of the dog in the night-time" by Mark Haddon ... really interesting stuff .. lead character has Asperger's Syndrome and is a young man (15 or 16) in Swindon, UK .. he narrates the book and gives a wonderful voice to the novel ... he also loves math and has trouble with crowds ... fascinating book...

I like Wolfe's non-fiction better then fiction .. watching Peter Jackson's "Meet the Feebles" (1989) right now ... it seems pretty feeble ...

Another review .. just saw Anthony Bourdain's show "No Reservations" on the DVR from Monday ... In general I would give the show **** .. Bourdain is a great writer and a wonderful host .. I have been to his restaraunt "Les Halles" on 28th and Park Ave South before I moved to Maine and it was quite good **** .. His book "Restaraunt Confidential was also very good ***1/2 ...
This show in Japan this week was one of the best so far .. It went to Osaka, a food capital of the country and to the hills and mountains inland .. The show was brilliant, fun and made me want to go to a Hanshin Tigers baseball game ... One of the best shows this side of the first show on Paris .. and what's great about the French ****1/2 ... Try to catch it on the Travel Channel some time this week ...

Saw the absolutely brillina Hiryo Mirayaki film (sp.) ... Howl's Moving Castle ****1/2 .. It was lyrical, beautiful and awesome ...
I would also HIGHLY recommend that you watch his movies in Japanese (with subtitles) with the original actors .. Disney has gotten big name actors for the roles, but I much before Miyake directing them...

I saw "Pink Flamingos" .. John Waters (1972) movie of disgusting things ... It was OK .. ** ... I liked the Waters commentary on the DVD better then the movie itself...
I have also seen "Good Night and Good Luck" .. It was most deserving of an Oscar nomination for Best Picture, and Best Actor for David Straitharn .... **** .. An excellent movie well worth seeing, I could easily see it as a companion to Miller's "The Crucible" and of discussing 1950s politics, would be an excellent movie to see for students ... It is also quite enjoyable ...
I also resigned from the vacuum gig, the job literally makes me sick, and its time for the next thing .. Unfortunately I think it will be another McJob ...

The job is still weird ...
The weather is getting nicer in Maine ...
Started "Rent" last night but only got 5 minutes into it ...
And the first muppet show (Season 1, #1) has the amazing "Mahna Mahna" song and a much deeper voiced and different looking Miss Piggy ....
I hope I hear from Energy East soon about getting a real job ......

hahaha, the lizards were not purple, that's just my crappy camera phone doing that!
oddly enough, when i take pictures of myself with purple hair with it, the hair looks brown.
my phone is color confuzzled.

.. I also really do love how the plot keeps circling itself .. a very good movie ...
Listened to some of Gilliam (and another's) commentary and it seemed reasonably interesting.
A film quite worth seeing if you haven't seen it before ...
Not quite as good as Brazil, but you do wonder what could come next.
Saw "After Hours" .. I really enjoyed the making of documentary but felt very sorry for the crazy travails of Griffin Dunne's character ...
Its a decent movie but one I can't really recommend **1/2 ... It is a Scorsese movie I have never seen and one that the wicked cool ShellyMC recommended...
It was very cool to see Linda Fiorentino topless (and very young)...

I *love* After Hours it's one of my very favourites, so much so that I had a Region 1 copy shipped as there are no region 2 copies.
Thanks for the birthday wishes.

My wife is starting to feel better I think ...
Just saw the absolutely hilarious "A Dirty Shame" ... **** .. A Dirty Shame goes right back to John Waters start as a naughty and completely silly (in a good way) sex comedy ...
This movie is an absolute riot, and I love that all of the characters are completely out of their mind .......
