Saw some more movies this week, and also watching the first disc and a half of Lost Season 1 ...

The first thing I will review is "Lost" .. Its quite good, very interesting, very rich ... Excellent show which I want to keep wanting to know about .. I really like the hunter w/ the wheelchair, the hot female criminal, and the big guy ... good show ***1/2 ...

Then there is Waters famous .... "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 am glad to say I have seen it though, I definitely can't recommend it though ... It was bizarre though.

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 ...

Wish me luck, its time for me to get fulfilling work .. A much more difficult challenge then we were led to believe in school, or by the "knowledge worker" revolution talked about in Robert Reich's "The Work of Nations" or the late Peter Drucker's "Post-Capitalist Society" ...

I think I just might make the plunge and become an academic .. .also check out my poetry from the last post ..

There is also one more thing I want to review .. the absolutely brilliant book of living with the "Worst Dog in the World" .. Marley and Me ... ***** .. It is absolutely great, if you have ever loved a dog especially ...

Just a warning though, its going to pull at your heartstrings and might make you want a dog again .. If you love dogs, despite how crazy they can be you should most definitely read this at the Library, Bookstore, or borrow it from a friend ...

Its just great ...

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 ****

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 ...
