Especially when you add Christian Bale to the mix as an adorably geeky journalist.

One word of warning, Amy. This is the movie that proves there is a hairstyle so bad that even Bale's attractiveness can be dispelled by it. Fortunately he's only wearing it part of the time.

I'll consider myself warned.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
william Defoe does not do a thing fo r me. and Miles is not preternatural. However, all the rest I find fascinating in one way or another.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
The defining quality of preternatural on that list seems to be "big and/or weird and/or long nose". I do not agree with this definition.
That said, I find them all dreamy -- but Bowie is the only alien in the bunch.
I met Iman once. It was like talking to art. Seriously, its like the Almighty said, "Just for kicks, I'll make a PERFECT one!" and then really had at it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Popping in from the doo-wop workshop at the getaway.

HA! I'm at an academic decathlon workshop and the guy who is leading the workshop (who is brilliant btw), just used Take Me Out to the Ballgame, first in Major Scale then in Minor Scale to show how different those scales are and how they manipulate listeners emotions.
It was way way way cool. I've never heard TMOttB in minor scale. Interesting.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Did it make you cry, Kat?

Nope. But it was still really cool. A nice illustration.
I have to say, it's kind of awesome (I mean truly AWE) to be in a room of 200+ inner city kids listening to opera and have them cheer. The guy who is doing the workshop is rocking it, to mix music.

The status is NOT quo.
Sending lots of wedding~ma to Kristin and ND. (Personally, I think you should use the Bride Card. Be an asshat - it's part of Bridal Privilege, no?)
Thanks, Sumi. I've been referred to their "Member Satisfaction Department," so we'll see where that goes.

That's amazing, Kat!
