What's in a name?

As James, you have a natural interest in the welfare of your fellow man, and a desire to help and serve others in a humanitarian way. You are responsible and generous, although somewhat scattering and disorganized at times. Any jobs requiring systematic and conscientious effort, or involving any form of drudgery, dismay you. In your work, you would seek a position offering self-expression through contact with people, such as sales or teaching, or a position giving scope to your creative, artistic talents. You are good-natured and likeable, and people tend to confide in you and seek your advice in personal problems. Others sense your sincere interest and desire to help, and you can always be counted on to see the bright side of any problem. You enjoy making others happy and you never let your own problems "get you down" for any length of time, even though you do tend to worry too much at times. Your optimism can be a source of inspiration to others as well as yourself. In close personal relationships you are usually thoughtful and considerate. However, your natural interest in others, coupled with your sympathetic reaction to problems, could draw you into emotional situations which may be difficult to get out of. Health weakness would appear as skin conditions or ailments relative to the liver. A tendency to overeat quick-energy foods aggravates any health problems.

They

I just got back from seeing this and I am totally freaked out. We haven't had a decent horror film in years, then in a span of 4 weeks, we get "The Ring" and this movie. I did think that some scenes were pretty predictable, but there were at least 2 to every one bad scene that I was totally scared in. The main reason is that everybody can relate to it; we all have had nightmares, and this movie is very much like a bad dream, things just start and stop in odd fashions and the characters don't know where they are or how they got there. The end scene, which I will not go into details, just reminded me of my own nightmares, not specically, but I have had those dreams where you can't control things or can't run. This movie is a must see, if you like to be scared.

funniest beer commerical ever

anybody see that beer commerical?

ya know, when two people in an apartment complex wanna steal their next door neighbor's beer, so they drill a hole into their wall where the other person's fridge is on the other side, and then dril a hole thru the fridge...so then the girl in that appartment opens the fridge and screams because she sees her neighbors head in her fridge, she slams the fridge door closed, then her boy friend goes to check out happened, and we see him scream...then we see that there is no beer in the fridge!

I just love that commercial, cracks me up everytime.

oh and i got a mac screensaver (that came with the mac) that reminds me of the corona commercial (two people sitting on a beach)...

I've got beer on the brain...

Crazy Mac Apps!

I have gotten this msg twice from the Mail program, "gathering children from disk for local account" when checking for new mail messages, well I only remember the first two words, because I was so stunned, but just now in an aim chat, :scott: said that he gets those things to...I am not going crazy! Okay, the jury is still out on that but...scott is gonna get a screengrab of it and I will update this post when he does.

Oh yeh, I messed around with the default midnight Jessica Alba skin last night, adding a background image (w000t!) behind this text, :jazy: did the blue and yellow tiled images you see in the sidebar, and paaool made the two logos; the top one and the bottom one.

My redskins looked ugly again on Sunday, :shrug:

I may be getting a job at United Artists soon, my friend works there and says they need people BAD and that I should just show up tomorrow or tuesday and ask for an interview (I submitted 2 applications already, I really I am tired of writing out references), so I dunno, but this would be cool, except I am kinda busy as it is already, so the thing that would get shoved aside would be blogging and chatting, :shrug:...oh well.

Well smell ya later!

UPDATE :scott: and I are not alone!

NEXT DAY UPDATE!

:scott: got a screengrab of it!

My Big Fat Greek Wedding

This movie has been playing in my area for 30+ weeks so I think it's about time I get around to seeing it! I enjoyed every minute of it, and no I understand how a movie can be in theaters longer than Lord of the Rings, Attack of the Clones, Titanic, and Harry Potter. Wow. There's so many laugh-out-loud funny parts in this movie, I think I missed a few because I was laughing so hard! If you have put off seeing this movie like I did, then you absolutely must see this movie!

Why is Iraq a threat to us?

All Bush ever does is repeat the same thing over and over and over and over and over again, to no end. Iraq is a threat. Why? He has weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). Jesus fucking Christ Bush, there's other countries with more (and not on our side, mind you) WMD than Iraq. PLUS, Iraq doesnt't even have the wherewithall to get the missiles over to harm us, if he even has WMD. What's he gonna do, send them over on a magic carpet? Why don't we go after North Korea? They HAVE the WMD and THE WHEREWITHALL to do use them.

Yes Saddam tortures his own people, but didn't Pol fucking Pot do that as well? Our government didn't seem to think that needed our military attention, and one can simply not really compare Pol Pot to Saddam Huissen. Pol Pot was a thousand times worse. And North Korea is even worse than that.

Face it, this war mongering is just so that Bush stays popular long enough to get re-elected into office. Saddam hasn't done anything bad in a couple of years and is now trying to shape up, because he knows he and his country can be whiped off the face of the Earth by our weapons. He's not gonna do anything...

Are American's ready to do something? Is Bush ready to be the aggressor?

8 Mile

Ever since I saw the trailer for this back in March, I knew I wanted to see it. As the release date was approaching and the marketing was picking up like crazy, I knew I was seeing this in the opening weekend. I know what you're thinking: here's another movie that James raves about and gives it 4 out of 4 pops...well you're right again, kudos to you.

But don't take my word for it. I went to see this with my parents, who are both in their 50s (dad is about to turn 60, damn thats young! :), and neither one of them like rap and probably like eminem even less, yet both came out raving about it and him. My mom said, "[Eminem's] face is really telegenic!", and they both agreed that Kim Basinger (thats Bay-Singer) has the best supporting actress Oscar all but won, and they have never really raved about her either. I'd have to agree too, this movie and "Batman", are probably her best...okay she was good in LA Confidential too.

What's great about this movie, is that it really humanizes ghetto/inner city life, and it's rather shocking to people who have lived in the 'burbs their entire life (me), I have LOTS more respect for Marshall Mathers now, but I respected him a great deal before today. He's a lyrical genius. Heck, drop the lyrical, he's a genius. You shouldn't have to like rap to understand that.

Marshall and Kim co-star with the always good Britney Murphey and Mekhi Phifer, but Evan Jones, Eugene Byrd, and Omar Benson Miller have started the trek to make names for themselves. Evan Jones almost steals the show from Marshall Mathers, but that's pretty hard to do, especially when the movie is about Marshall's life.

That's another thing. People have knocked this movie saying that there's no music in it, and that Mathers can't act. Sure, it's easy to play yourself in a movie, but if that's not acting and requires no acting ability than I think everybody would be an actor. And to the turd on some DC radio show who said there's no music in this movie, when the trailer has lots of music, I say this: What movie did you watch? There's plenty of music! It's not a musical, no, but it is LADEN with GREAT RAP SONGS. Guess somebody just wanted to knock Eminem without even seeing the movie. Sir, your kind disgusts me.

Recommendation: Even if you don't like rap, and/or think Eminem is a no-talent ass clown, you got to give this movie some consideration. It features one of the best (if not THE best) Kim Basinger role EVER, great music, great rising action and tension that climax' brillantly in the end, and introduces Hollywood to Marshall Mathers; I cannot wait til he stars in a movie not about rap or himself. He will shine again.

I love Kathleen Kennedy

But apparently most of Maryland does not. Dumbasses. So yeah, Bob Ehrlich is Maryland's first Republican governor in 36 years. I guess the fucks were due. I am made. At both this state, and this state. Fuck Maryland. This state used to be cool, but I hate it now. It's been a feeling growing for a while actually, but haveing Bob Ehrdick as Governor just adds insult to injury. Add to the fact that racist Michael Steele is now the Lt. Governor. Damn him to hell. Damn them both.

Michael Steele just said "traffic congestion will stop tonight". Lyer. Yeah, like that is fucking possible. I don't care if he is the first black person to be elected, he's an idiot. A repubican idiot. Hold on, a black republican? Whoa. That's weird. lol. ;)

I voted today, for Kathleen Kennedy Townsend. She didn't win. Doesn't mean I will never vote again. Voting is a right that not many people of Earth have, we Americans must use this right, or you can take your ass out. Get out now. I don't care where you go. Just go. You are not wanted.

I am mad, but I love all y'all.

The Ring

Those of you who know me, know that the only horror films that scare the bejesus out of me are the ones about ghosts. Now, there are always exceptions, but not here. This movie totally freaked me out. Several times I had the urge to cover my eyes. This film is top notch, I gotta find the Japanese original, maybe this is a bold exception to the remake rule, it probably is. Go see it. Now if you have, then...SPOILER...when I saw the girl in the beginning crouched down and her head practically fall off her face, I almost screamed out loud. I don't know how I held it back...but when the dead girl crawled out of the TV, yikes! Gotta go change my pants, okay, just kidding there, but I was terrified.
