Transformers revenge of the fallen

The difficult second album I enjoyed the original Transformers movie. It was a nice popcorn piece. It avoided Fandom, and it told a simple story. A young lad growing up, has something amazing happen to him, and rises to the challenge, winning the heart of a beautiful lady A tale as old as time. The follow up film, was going to be harder. President Obama is name checked, which is interesting The Geography is somewhat confused. They drive to Petra in Jordan, to Egypt and back A lot of the action is based on Deigo Garcia. The last British territory in the Indian Ocean http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diego_Garcia The Union jack is all over  the film. There is a soldier wearing the sand coloured beret of the SAS. The Autobots are in alliance with the US/UK I presume UN, as the opening scenes of the film happen in China. I am sure the PRC is going to allow the US to perform military operations in her territory Nest rather then R.A.T.S a pity. There is a nice scene when the soliders...

Michael Jackson reported dead

Michael Jackson reported dead (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) I have listened to his Music all my life. I remember watching the video for Black and white. Then talking about it in primary school. They called him the King of Pop. They were right. I think his might have been the first album I ever listened too. As opposed to Now 42 He was the first African American Artist to play on MTV There is the other side of the legend: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1993_child_sexual_abuse_accusations_against_Michael_Jackson Michael Jackson, Genius, Madman Angel and Monster. Died today

Big Kiss!

  This is my Valya. I call her my Valya because she looks after me, and is a very good friend to me. She is very strong and pretty. She is also a genius. She has published several papers and won national prizes in economics She looked after me when Ice dumped me. She loves Cats and Dogs, and 7 up It was Valya who encouraged me, to write ``Sleeping under the cross’’ We are going to go to Brasil-Argentina and Chile She is a bit sad at the moment, as her year in George Washington University has finished. I remember how sad I was when I finished my year in UNC. I didn’t have a good friend to help me, then. My Valya will! YOU ARE THE BEST!

Happy Birthday Nead

Today is my sisters birthday. I wish her well!

Round up- 21st June-2009

I was really hangover on Sunday morning. I slept in, till Midday.  Probably because I was standing up all night, and I never really relaxed but still The first chapter of ``Sleeping under the cross’’ has been posted.I am a little dismayed now, I did not name it Sleeping under the sky. The acronym then would be SLUTS I watched the Karate kid again: 1 Teenage boys don’t have a relationship with their mother like that 2 The Kid, is annoying. You see him being bullied and think, he deserves it 3 Pat Marita won an Oscar. As my youngest brother observed I bet Mickey Rourke is bitter about that. Its the opposite of Linda Hunt, in The year of living dangerously. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Year_of_Living_Dangerously ``Alright Ms Hunt, we’ve been fans of yours for a long time, we want you to star in our new picture. Its going to be big ``I am delighted tell me more’’ ``Yer playing a bloke, a midget in  fact’’ ``Oh’’ Whilst in the Karate Kid, Pat Marita, wande...

W (Dubya)

Someone at work lent this to me. Its said all literature is about the relationship between the protagonist and their father. W is clearly the story of the second son. One is tempted to say Ishmael. That might be asking for trouble. W is the story of a good old boy and his uptight eastie father. There is a dream sequence at the end of the film. As Mao is supposed to have commented on the French revolutions results Its a bit to early to say. Some scenes in this film are pure fantasy Bushes strengths can be seen in a few scenes. The frat party scene where half cut, and up to waist in ice. Bush names the entire fraternity house including their nicknames. His wooing of the young Laura Wright. A young man thinking on his feet. Oh and being hugged by two passers by in Texas. While him, and Karl Rove plan and plot In contrast Bush is depicted as unfocused. Commenting about the length of a document he receives from Vice President Cheney. ``Good only 3 pages.’’ Unable to control his sub ordi...

The Hangover

I wanted to do something on Sunday.  I walked to the cinema. The theatre was a bit crowded. More then a few kids. For those of you who read my posts. This often annoys me. There is also the fact that comedies are most enjoyable as a shared experience. When you watch them on your own, its never quite as fun Well this film, was that good. Neither mattered. I laughed out loud and people applauded when the film finished The plot is simple. It is told in flashback 4 friends. Or rather 3 friends and the prospective brother of in law. Travel to Las Vegas for a bachelor party Who did not drink Jagermeister in College? The tiger in one scene,Is obviously fake. However That’s me being a nit picker. A lot of nudity in the film. Its mostly male though :( Heather Graham does a charming Nevada accent. I don’t want to spoil too many of the jokes. So this review will be short. Nice to see Jeffery Tabor as always The journey home, was a nightmare!

Well done Veronica

On your physics class Besos!

Blue shoes

A co worker has purchased a pair of bright blue shoes. She is breaking them, in and so far they are causing her a little discomfort. She loves the shade of blue though I told her off, for making decisions based on Colour   :)

Terminator Salvation

I miss Summer. I miss Lena. My Thursday nights are not the same. Terminator Salvation got strange reviews. The rumour that John Connor would be revealed to be a Terminator. The chatter about Nathan bale being miscast Its odd to hear Linda Hamilton, rather then Lena as Sarah Connor The Cameo by a computer generated Arnold. Reminds you why the original terminator was a hit.  It also reminds you why Arnold became a star. He is a big scary bastard. Sam Worthington's, accent slips a few times. Would it have killed the writers to throw in a line mentioning he was an Army brat in Australia? A sterling performance by Sam, as Marcus.  Worthington, is a big strong lad. Which most actors are not. He has the right vibe to pay the role of Marcus. An ex con. A brawler. Happy with cars and radios. After the Apocalypse the Americans still have perfect teeth. The vegetables in one scene are very fresh too. Now its not impossible they are growing them. Just one wonders where? The yo...

8-June -2009

The results of the EU election are in. I voted. I was one of the small minority that did. My party did not get anywhere. I wanted to make my voice heard this time. I finished watching the Wire. The third season. Lots of ups and downs. I will post more on it later. One of my colleagues, male wore a leopard skin shirt today. Tomorrow we have a shindig for one of my co workers. Ashes to Ashes finished tonight.

I was stung today. As I was putting my washing on the clothes line. It caught me on the foot. One of my worse childhood traumas is remembering the time. My mother trapped several wasps in my bedroom. One hid in my slipper, and stung my foot. The other caught me in the chest. I have blanked out the horrible memory of the third attack Bzzz bzzzz

Two rants for the price of one.

I bought pear juice rather then apple juice by mistake last week. I tried to drink it, with my lunch today. It was vile. I could not even let it slosh down my throat. While I ate chips, and corned beef. I could not drink it, even half diluted. It was so disgusting I was watching Big Brother. One of the contestants told the world. That his nickname is Dark Horse I am sceptical http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090604165502AAJlRvo Nicknames, are given to you. You don’t choose them. Your favourite poster is called variously James, PhD, Rosie. He knows Valya’s and Magga’s has met Bobs, and Bills. The point is all the names, are given to you. Ask any fatty, sortie. Jock or Jugs.  Self chosen nicknames are the preserve of, and I won’t mince words. Twats. No one ever says. Darkhorse how about a pint. Aye Aye Darkhorse. Unless they are about to add an insulting four letter word. There are only two ways you can get the name Darkhorse: You are caught pleasuri...

Orange and Pear flavoured juice is vile

Goodnight Vienna

I have returned home from Wien. Tomorrow I go back to work. I think the place grew on me. Or I really don’t want to go back to work This is me, up on the roof, of the tram station by my hotel. To be honest I had terrible vertigo. I am terrified of slipping down steps. Heights themselves don’t scare me I woke up this morning, and watched CNN. Full of bad news about the tragic recent loss of flight Flight AF 447 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8080290.stm I was perhaps a little more nervous flying today. I spent the day lounging around Wien. Last night I had steak, and a cocktail. I had a steak at the resturant. I had been frequenting. I gave them a 100 euro note. Which did not please the, staff. A pity. They were nice. They were more then nice. They were hot Its looks as if I am asleep or something very pleasant is happening to me. I sat on the yellow blocks of the museum quarter and wrote postcards. Yesterday I saw a man, with a bow and arrow. As I was comin...

Well done Kata
