Back to the grind...

Back in Oneonta. No Alias. Too poor to order food, so I had some instant udon. Soulseek is back online, so I'm downloading music again. Thanks to haremmistressdd, I've now seen the "X-Men 2" trailer that's attached the potential trainwreck of a film, "Daredevil."

It's apparently snowing everywhere in NY.. except for here. How are we missing out on the snowstorm that's going to cover NYC in a foot of the white stuff?

Oh. Saw "Shanghai Knights" Saturday. Was okay. More fighting than the first and Brit jokes a-plenty. I just want to know what Chong Lin says on that bridge scene. 'Cause... entertainment value.

11 Days til LA!

khakigrrl has the best X-Men 1.5 screencaps and icons ^_^

Will attempt to write that RP post before I go to bed.

+ Don't look for analogies in 'Rings,' says Mortensen Excerpt:

During a recent visit to Japan to promote "Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers," the second in the series, the 44-year-old Mortensen was ready for the question, sporting a T-shirt in Japanese that read "No more blood for oil." His co-star, New Zealand actor Karl Urban, who showed up with him, had peace symbols stitched all over his jacket.

"I have not done this sort of thing in connection with one of my movies before, but I don't like my work being misinterpreted," Mortensen said, speaking slowly, sometimes almost inaudibly. "Tolkien wrote the stories during World War II and he himself said then that it shouldn't be seen as a comparison to the war. It is no more allegorical now. It bothered me, so I wanted to say something.

"Since 9-11, more people have died in Afghanistan and Iraq than in New York that day — and for not a very good reason. Yet, you are looked down upon in the U.S. if you recommend dialogue before military action. Our country was founded on the principle of free speech and I say to go ahead with war without openly discussing it is morally wrong and dangerous."

I know! NYC basically shut down over 20" and I thought it was a little silly because the other day the weather line said, "Visibility is zero. Road conditions are extremely poor. [dramatic pause] There are no cancellations or delays."

Ah... Oneonta.
