It's two in the morning, actually; I don't know what this four in the afternoon crap is.
I think that sex existed before the 1960s. I know its a surprising revelation, but… there's no other way to explain the sexual innuendo in the 1930s children's film "Emil und die Detektive" that we watched in German class today. A boy with a horn is his pocket. Add a sweet, innocent looking girl. I'd rather not dwell on it, and certainly your sick, modern minds have already jumped far beyond the conclusion that I'm trying to insinuate. Needless to say, my world was turned upside-down.
Lunch today was also a pleasant experience; I sat with The Insurrectionist and this girl (a friend of his) who I met in the lunch line; she liked the movie [Pi], so needless to say we all had pleasant dinner table conversation. Oddly enough, the guy I sat with at dinner was also a big [Pi] fan; I know it�s a popular movie, but it�s rare to meet two outspoken fans of it in one day.
I suppose I should take this moment defend [Pi] from those of you who think its irritating. Its a good movie, especially for it's 2 million dollar budget (that�s how much it would have cost without all the favors they pulled; the actually operating costs approach Blair Witch Project standards). There are so many reasons to like [Pi]: the kind of conspiracy at work, for example, the math (which, even though I'm told its incorrect and horrible, is nonetheless mystifying), and a rushing pace that falls short of the gimmicky peppiness that made Snatch so much worse than Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels. I can go on, and I usually do, but for now I'd just like to get Friday posted, even if it�s no longer technically Friday.
Ah, the boredom! This is, as you have no doubt noticed, irecurringring theme in my web-log, and today was for the most part no exception. But it was a good day, really:
There was pleasant conversation for both my meals (breakfast, something people do before 11:00 am, is far too early to be bothered with), a decent grade on my last freshman studies paper, a movie in German class, and a LAN party tonight, which just ended. I also saw the Yellow Submarine movie (starring The Beatles) tonight, which was cool both because prettymuch everyone I know was there (I got invited to quite a few things, just being there) and because it was a totally different kind of movie �something I said about Moulin Rouge, too, before I found out that many of its gags were just lifted from this, much earlier, film.
For me, its time to sleep; any further effort would just add to the confused jumble of an entry that I�ve created here. Good night, Never-Never Land.
