  1. Yeah, except when I'm audited at the end of the year and they see a student in English 12 who writes the following on an Of Mice and Men essay: I like Lennie because he likes rabbits. Rabbits are nice and I like to pet them too. I don't kill them though because that is sad.

    I had class with people like those in high school. In fact, I still have classes with people like those at my university.

    Was that the entire essay?

    Also, my schedule this week can suck my non-existent dick.

  2. Most of the people from the original roles are either not going to be interested in a TV remake of a movie from their earlier career, or are dead.

    Honestly, I think there's a chance for a new generation of actors to do a decent job with these roles, but only if the actual plot is going to be even remotely like the original movie (and odds are it's not).

  3. Battlestar Galactica 4.12: A Disquiet Follows My Soul.

    'm not really sure why Bill Adama is reading Emily Dickinson. But, hey.

    And just when you think they can't get any lower, they can. They really really can. Especially Gaeta. He's taken a really dark turn this half of the season that I was not expecting.

    Though it's nice to see Roslin having her Rocky moment. And yay for them finally showing Roslin and Adama in bed together! (And now something horrible's going to happen. Because no one in this show can ever have happy things.)

  4. See? You didn't do half bad.

    Let's just say I utterly fail at dancing as evidenced by last night and leave it at that.

    Also, wish I was of the age to legally drink. Or that I had money and a vehicle to do things. Because at the moment, all of my friends are either in bars or in games for their RPing campaigns.

  5. Dubs, you cannot have been more awkward than me last night.

    I attempted swing dancing at Heaven and Hell. The guy tried to dip me.

    Unfortunately, the height differences (I was taller) and gravity ended with me sprawled on the floor.

    So you probably did better than I did. :P

  6. Mike, you had a lot of the same opinions I did while trudging through the first book. (I read the first book just to have the sole ability to tear it using sources from the book. Been trying to make my way through the rest of the series, never have been able to stomach it)

    You don't want to know what they do to Jacob later in the series. You really really don't.

    Also, does anyone else see the vampires as kind of sort of Mormonism?

    You get cake for making it through this. And for the whole 300 episodes thing. :P
