a movie and books
My mind is blank. I am sitting here trying to think of something to say but I can’t figure anything out. I haven’t done anything for the past three days so it’s not like there’s a lot going on.
The one thing I did do was drive to see a movie called Team America. If you don’t like South Park, you won’t like Team America. I thought the movie was very funny, not the whole movie but certain parts. It’s funny to see how much you can get away with making fun of recognizable people in puppet form.
I think the funniest thing about this movie is how I was watching it. The puppets were talking, speaking many opinions about weapons of mass destruction and terrorists. Half of the movie I was staring at the screen trying to reason with what they were saying. It might have been because these subjects were so personal, but then something funny happens and I forget about the logic.
So, all of this along with a funny theme song (which is inappropriate for almost everyone) I can’t recommend this movie to anyone except people in my generation or those who are fans of South Park.
Before the movie started, I spent a lot of my time in Borders bookstore. I enjoy going to these stores (like Barnes and Nobles) and usually can spend a great amount of time just browsing music and books. I’m sure you can identify. I know there are a lot of great books out there and I should enjoy reading other types, but the very first area which I usually default to is the computer/programming book section. Seriously, I’m still a geek at heart! What I really want to do is buy a bunch of the CSS/XHTML, Photoshop, digitial photography, and other similarly themed books. There is so much that I could learn to utilize in these books to help me with my web design and it’s fascinating. However, I just don’t have enough money to buy them, and even if I bought them, would I read them or just shove them aside like most of my other books?
I think I have nothing else to say. What you should do this weekend? Eat some chocolate. That’s not a suggestion, it’s an order!
