I’m leaving for a bit.  When I come back it will be a new year and a new decade. Even years are the best.

Il Gattopardo

December 16th, 2009 by Austin

The precursor to Doctor Zhivago.  The original version of  The Leopard may be one of the best period pieces I’ve ever seen.

Yes, love, of course! Fire and flames for a year, ashes for thirty. I too know what love is.

Spiritwalker Love Cult

December 4th, 2009 by Austin

I’ve waited two months to write my semester paper for my History 152: America Since 1865 class why not delay it another two hours?  It’s due tomorrow and today turned to tomorrow 12 minutes ago.

I’ll take this time to point out how much I enjoy the following two songs by The Cult.  Why do I cherish them so?  The answer is simple, memories and cowbell.

Death Via Butt Implants

December 1st, 2009 by Austin

Former Miss Argentina, Solange Magnano, died after undergoing elective plastic surgery on her rear.  How does someone die from surgery on their buttocks?  Autopsy report por favor.  Via CNN.

Off topic but strangely on topic, one of my favorite songs by is Iggy Pop is entitled Miss Argentina.

What Happens…

When you think your husband is gone?

I’ve seen posters for Brothers, a new film by Jim Sheridan of Get Rich or Die Tryin’ fame, canvassing the walls of New York so I decided to check out the trailer.  After watching it I reached a couple conclusions; it has a great storyline and I’ll never see it because the voice-over-trailer-guy completely ruined the preview.  I couldn’t stop laughing… Is something wrong with me? Yes.

I’m also selling Christmas trees and it is beyond gratifying.  There are far too many stories to write down.  I miss doing manual labor.  I love it.

Thinking about seeing The Big Pink this weekend based solely based on the following music video. It might be a bit too Brit Pop for me.

Newsmap has been a revelation.

I watched the game at Lunasa with a bunch of Irish… What a sad and disgusting outcome.
