Teachers didn't have their own classrooms where I went to high school. There weren't enough to go around, so they would move around from room to room for the different periods of the day.

It looks like half of the cost is shipping, which vexes, but I don't see any way around that part.

Yeah, that's the cranky-making part.

I quite enjoy the Verte de Fugerolles (from the absinthe link), but it's a little harsh.

Serbian vampire hunters prevent Milosevic come-back

Drive 3ft stake through dictator's black heart

Serbian vampire hunters have acted to prevent the very remote possibility that former dictator Slobodan Milosevic might stage a come-back - by driving a three-foot stake through his heart.

According to Ananova, the politically-motivated Van Helsings, led by Miroslav Milosevic (no relation), gave themselves up to cops after attacking the deceased despot in his grave in the eastern town of Pozarevac. Milosevic popped his clogs back in 2006, while on trial in a UN war crimes tribunal for various unsavoury activities connected with the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia.

Miroslav Milosevic said "he and his fellow vampire hunters acted to stop the former dictator returning from the dead to haunt the country". His team explained that the wooden stake had been "driven into the ground and through the late president's heart".

My brother is torturing me. He keeps sending me negative reviews of 300.

Now, I'm predisposed to roll my eyes so far they fall out of my head that anyone tried to make a whole movie around Thermopylae. It's ridic. But what's killing me is most of the reviews he's sending me miss the point in their hate. And often very confused about historical facts. So I hate everyone. It's great.

Do they screen for stupid? I'm looking for a site that screens for stupid. Like, what if you're really beautiful but without the aid of OSHA, you'd be balancing on the top rungs of ladders?

anyone tried to make a whole movie around Thermopylae.

What are the people hating? Are they missing the point that it's based on a Frank Miller comic, and therefore way over the top?

Ngh. I need to wake up so I can make a phone call to an angry user. I don't think "Dude, sucks to be you." will qualify as good customer service.

Well, put it this way. One commented on the lack of an anti-war sentiment. And had issue with the fact that OMG they were fighting the Persians! OMG, Iran peoples!! There is a lot of ott hate too. Which, fine, not my thing either but what else is left if you've got 2 hours or whatever to have a Battle of Thermopylae? It's pretty much just strategy and violence. Which, well, I don't see the point of trying to make a movie about it, but that's why I hate it.

The New York Times review of 300 is kind of hilarious. ("The Persians, pioneers in the art of facial piercing, have vastly greater numbers — including ninjas, dervishes, elephants, a charging rhino and an angry bald giant — but the Spartans clearly have superior health clubs and electrolysis facilities.")

Also, breaking news, Salma Hayek is pregnant. But what gets me is, she's also 40! Damn, she looks good. [link]

I guess if I thought about it, Salma Hayek looks mid-thirties. But 40! And admits it! She rules.

Speaking of NYT movie reviews, I heard Host was good, but goddamn if I could tell either way from the review there. Utter gibberish.
