See, for me, more back stories would have been great! Like what was up with the noose burn on Brad Pitt? The Hugo flashback was great. That section cutting to the forest, backstory, cutting to Hitler meeting, back to the forest, etc. That scene was great. But the bulk of the film, the actual scenes just went on way too long. :: yawn ::

Not for me. I thought the whole thing was fantastic from beginning to end.

Haaaaa.

So I've decided to write a letter about my experience with Oak Tree Mazda rather than e-mail since it's more formal (my co-worker suggested including my business card, which I think is a neat trick to make me look all professional). I tried to track down the address of the Del Grande Dealer Group, but the Internet assigned several different addresses because of the various dealerships. One address popped up in a couple different places, but I wanted to make sure it was the right one.

I called the number given, and a woman answered with "Capitol Mazda, how may I direct your call?"

Aaah. I told her I was trying to reach the people above her, the Del Grande Dealer Group. It took her a few seconds to grok what I meant, but then she got it and started to give me the address for the business office.

"Who are you trying to reach?" she said. "The owner?"

"Yeah," I said. "I want to talk about my experience at one of the dealerships."

"It depends on which one, because if it was here, the general manager is co-owner."

"Oh, no, it was Oak Tree Mazda," I said.

"Ooooooh," she said knowingly! Haaaa ha ha ha. "You didn't get this from me. Send it to the business office. And the president is Shaun Del Grande, and Shaun is spelled S-H-A-U-N. And the zip code is 95136."

Methinks this is not the first time someone has complained about Oak Tree Mazda?

Ahh. I like it when the end of the day brings relaxing news with it, don'tcha?

My parents left my sister's base area about 30 seconds before it got hit in the recent fire exchange. And in a closed car, with the a/c on, they couldn't hear the alarms.

Yay.

Oh, omnis, per another interview, re the next scar, Aldo had been fighting in similar basterd fashion against the KKK back in the states. So either he went after them for an attempted lynching, or they caught up with him at some point after he'd already decided to go after them. Another bit of backstory that never made it to the theaters (I'm not sure if it was ever filmed or not).

Phew, glad to hear other bitches liked the basterds.

I beginning to feel like the proverbial "cheese", as in, standing alone, wrt Basterds flick. I guess we can't all agree on everything. tis ok.

ION, I'm getting icky voice feeling. In the middle of a phone conversation, it went all froggy for a few sentences. Please, I don't have time for the ick.

That reminds me I need to take some vitamin C. D is getting over a respiratory infection.

it's OK omnis- I hated My Fair Lady.

I guess we can't all agree on everything. tis ok.

Good lord yes. Hope you didn't feel piled-on. I was just psyched to have folks on the board to talk about it with, yea or nay.

Please. Have you met us, omnis? Disagreeing on things is the Buffista way of saying "Hey, hi! What's going on? Tell me every little thing...."
