I had sexually frustrating dreams last night. I also didn't punch anybody.

Wow! Wikipedia just informed me that District 9 is, as a story, really just a metaphor for District Six!

How could I ever have though I knew about apartheid, never having heard of District Six?!

I'm tripping on this right now! Peter Jackson and Neill Blomkamp are brilliant!


(And how I wish Botha could feel the agony of his own corpse rotting away with incomprehensible slowness.)

Shit. That second paragraph should have been: "How could I ever have thought I knew about apartheid, never having heard of District Six?!"

how was the movie?

I sneak tonic water into theatres. I don't know what that makes me.

Headphones. Yeah.

Nice! Very good to hear about the happiness, and so we had a bit of cinematic synchronicity over this past weekend, didn't we? Personally, however, I don't really see how an analogy can be drawn between "Funny People" and porn, but maybe that's just because, for me, I've never seen porn with a plot that mattered. (Definitely willing to admit that's just me, however.)

Oh! And I have to say that I never expected an entry like this from you. Then again, I guess I do know a fair number of smart people who very much enjoy vehicular beauty. Myself included, I have to admit, though for me it's all about the (Lamb) Murcilago.

Ok then yeah, sorry I was a little daft there with regard to "Funny People". We're in total agreement then. Yeah it rocked.

Anyway, I'm not really too much of a car dude. I know stuff here and there, but I can't very well pick out the carburetor from the pistons if you were to open the hood. And as for faves, I do have my exotic picks, but most of my choices are Hondas. (Hence, I don't watch Top Gear. No TV at all, really. Except half an hour of HBO last night.)

Hooooweeeee, girlfriend! Hot enough for ya? How's that Portland weather holding up?

Shit. So that's what an interviewee *should* say? Man, I could learn a lot from you. No wonder I feel behind the ball in my career advancement. Whenever I've gotten the "5-year" question, I just try my best to be upfront and say "Oh, you know, just sucking and swallowing that corporate cock like everyone else I know."

And curiously enough, at one job, the responses to that lil' zinger were, in fact:

Interviewer One: "Wow. That is so cool."
Interviewer Two: "Totally. And you want to work for us?"

Oh, must be so very nice! I mean, to not really have to work, for me, would be... well, if only, m'lady, if only.

Anyway, so tell me how things in general have been. You never did comment on your level of happiness, which I would assume is fairly up there and relatively stable. Though this economy, I know and feel, is taking it's toll on nearly everybody. Though I still feel we walked away very lucky from eight traumatic years with that goofball shithead GW.

Actually, that's a fucking awesome idea, because I'm STARVING.

this is awesome.

Yeah no shit, I gotta get up there again to see my best friend. Fuck, I gotta get up there again and just stay there. Portland has the best venues on the planet, the best record stores on the planet, the best book stores on the planet, and they definitely have the best video store on the planet: Movie Madness. Not to mention the best people, though I do think New Yorkers give them a run for their money. (Obviously two very different neighborhoods though.)

So what kind of a retard stays in San Diego? I gotta find myself a job up there.

How are you? How's marriage? I sense you're happier than you've ever been -- very good thing, of course.

I read that Zak said he wasn't seeing beautiful women in Portland, but perhaps it was just a case of a bad mood. There are hot chicks *all over* Portland. I mean, one need look no further than the genesis of the SuicideGirls.

Hmmm....
I could use another fan does it look real good?

I do, I'll PM you mine in a minute. I just woke up though, so I'm not calling anyone right now.
