What is even happening?

Blah blah story of woman who talked down violent nutter by reading aloud from book, blah blah book was The Purpose-Driven Life, which is the bookclub item du jour in religious circles, blah blah when push comes to book contract woman admits that it was actually the liberal application of illegal drugs that "talked" violent nutter down, and at best they rested their coffee cups on aforementioned book blah blah neat-o-keen story about religious books soothing the savage breasts of nutters is woefully lacking in truthfulness.

No, that part's all true, too. She just left out the crystal meth bit when she called the cops. Supposedly she's been clean since that day, but it sounds like she's lived pretty dangerously, herself. [link]

So far, only a handful of theaters have a listing, and those are all the far away suburbs of suburbs ones. I'll wait till Thursday to find out.

It seems to be playing at Hunt Valley and the theatre in Linthicum (according to Fandango). They're pretty close in. Why isn't it at the Senator though? That would rock.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Regal is the same as some other chain though

UA (Regal bought them a year or so ago -- maybe longer.)

I'm disappointed in IMDB's inability to give me this information. This is the internet, dagnabbit! Everything should be instantaneous!

They're pretty close in.

Heh. See, to me? That isn't. It requires Beltway and all that crap. I've got a Lowes and a I-don't-know-but-newish-and-big just up the road from me.

Yeah it's all the same to me if it isn't at the Charles or the Senator or the Rotunda, which is walking distance woot woot.

Of course the Senator is not listing what movie is opening there this week. It just says that Constant Gardener is closing on the 29th.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It just says that Constant Gardener is closing on the 29th.

Not so constant then, is he?

(sorry)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It Always Be Closing.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I just followed a link to my old hometown newspaper from Joliet, and figured I'd check and see how my alma mater is doing in the football standings. Um, they beat their last opponent 68-7; I think they're doing pretty good. Reminds me of a homecoming game when I was attending, when we beat our main crosstown rivals 72-0.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Purpose Driven Meth Lady will be on Oprah sometime this week, I think. Guess this is going to come out then, too.

Gah. I just have to whine a bit.

So tomorrow I have an appointment for a physical (to rule out stuff like a thyroid problem or diabetes), because the optometrist found nothing at all wrong with my eye. Meanwhile, the vision in my left eye has gotten worse. I am unable to read out of that eye alone. But it's the freakiest thing - there are blotches of clear vision mixed amongst areas of blurry, wavy vision. And those various areas stay constant (they shift when I look from place to place).

Another possible explanation is a very delayed reaction to one of my various psych meds. If the physical turns up normal then I'll call my psych Dr. and see if I should switch meds or something.
