There is a flat in gay Paree. Safe on a tree-lined avenue.

I see another polirant approaching. This one on the mosque they want to build near by the 9/11 crash.

I am making my brother a trifle for his birthday. He has no idea what that it is. This should be fun!

I am still undecided on whether to see the Scott Pilgrim movie. Good reviews but still UGH MICHAEL CERA HOW I HATE YOUR FACE. If it was any other lead, I would be on this movie in an instant. But yeah, Cera just makes me rage with his basic existence. It's not even him as a person. I just can't stand his face. So shallow.

Flight of Eagles is shaping up to be my favorite yet. I love the concept of the dragons making their own rules and being in charge. This means more dragons and less humans, which is always a plus. I also love getting more of Iskierka, although I'm growing random fond of Perscita and her adorable arrogance. They are my favorites. I like Temeraire well enough, but he suffers form the usual protagonist flaws of being sometimes simply too much. It's hard to explain. I do love him though. I'm hoping for more from Lily and Maximus in this book as well. Though my reading schedule for it is a bit wonked. I'm only 150 pages in.

Since everyone has been so lively on the Geass comm lately, what with the anniversary of the start of Britannia's invasion of Japan and all, I have tracked down the Otakon Geass AMVs for sharing!

Lelouch Lamperouge stars in Christopher Nolan's "Inception."
Won best in trailer/parody. Oh yeah, and there's a Roy Mustang cameo.

Pizza Hut vs. KFC

And last but not least...

BRITANNIA FUCK YEAH!
Won best in comedy. As an added note, Gabi especially adores this one for the opening between Lelouch and Nunnally.
If you aren't an AMV.org member, you can get the censored version on YouTube.



Random quotes of the day:
"Glenn Beck is an oxymormon - sometimes he makes sense... "
- WaPo comment on Glenn Beck's support for gay marriage. Yeah, you read that right.

"This is so exciting! I've never been involved in a three-way before."
- my father referring to being on a three-way phone conversation with my brother and I. talk about awkward.

Re: Glenn Beck comment

....... Wow. I had to reread that twice to make sure I wasn't seeing things.

Technically, his stance is not having the government interfere in this issue either way. But considering all the other crazy shit that comes out of his mouth... Yeah, THAT IS FUCKING AMAZING.

The funny thing is that this the same man who's argued gay marriage will lead to polygamy back in 2009 and that gay marriage will make the universe collapse. (http://www.alternet.org/blogs/sex/139988/glenn_beck:_%27gay_marriage_will_make_the_universe_collapse%27/) I think he also had some crazy conspiracy about it back then.

*whistles* Wow. Maybe there's some hope he's getting more sane? ... Okay, maybe a pipe dream but hey, it's a nice thought.

We can only hope...

This week, O'Reilly said Jennifer Aniston was the destruction of our society.
