Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Who doesn't like Nigel Havers? Why not?

Angus is the BAD MAN.

He even came up with a new word to describe NH. It's in COMM.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

(off to look for wicked new word)

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Got this link from David Ehrenstein. An excellent review of the film and also how the events of "Gulf War I" relate directly to "Gulf War II".

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

OK - a different kind of phone porn. (Warning - does involve as much actual porn as the Register is capable of.)

Gar, was that prompted by the Coupling comments? Because there was actually an ep that referenced a similar, er, attempt at multitasking.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Umm no, pure coincidence; never saw that episode. Hmm, given the subject more of an impure coincidence.

And how the hell are you? I remember something about you having a pretty extreme schedule right now. Glad you have some time this Easter weekend. When is the time pressure due to ease up?

Three Kings is a great movie. I've been meaning to watch it again, given the current situation. Fortunately, SO was given the DVD for his birthday (and not by me).

Not bad, all things considered. Work's good, some interesting research going on, and I hope to find out next week what I'll be doing once I finish up here. Study's feeling manageable right now, though I'll still probably be limiting my time on these boards.

The exam's on May 31, so things will ease up thereafter (just in time for work to get busier, I suspect). Oh, and we've planned a trip to Spain for a couple of weeks over June/July, so looking forward to that. (I've wanted for a long time to see the Mesquita at Cordoba, and the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona.)

How are things with you?

I second the recco for Three Kings!

jimi proposes and then no one counter offers?

Is this the time to say that I'm used to boards where I get involved in six way marriages for power tools and better'n'sex brownies?

Probably not if I'm looking for any respect...

jimi! The NYTimes did a piece last weekend called "One Film, Two Wars, 'Three Kings'" It (like me) was big with the Three Kings lurve (erm, but not available anymore, I just checked)

Ahh but then I googled (I google therefore it is..) Here - [link]

In other news.. Robson pretty.

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

Umm. The one with the bisexual girl, the bathroom with no lock, and the pizza.

Right. Not a bad one, that, though they've done the schtick before (the one with Steve trying to justify the plot of Lesbian Spank Inferno).

THANK YOU! I watched them within days of each other and was mightily annoyed. I mean, for god's sake, there's six episodes a season!
