| FAVORITE movies of all time:
Continued after a 12-month break.
5. Yellow Submarine
Once upon a time, or maybe twice, there was an unearthly paradise
called Pepperland. 80,000 leagues beneath the sea it lay, or lie. I'm
not too sure.
4. The Wizard of Oz
The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle
is equal to the square root of the remaining side. Oh joy! Rapture! I
got a brain! How can I ever thank you enough?
3. 2001: A Space Oddyssey
I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, my mind is going. I can feel it. I
can feel it. My mind is going. There is no question about it. I can
feel it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I'm a... fraid. Good afternoon,
gentlemen. I am a HAL 9000 computer. I became operational at the H.A.L.
plant in Urbana, Illinois on the 12th of January 1992. My instructor
was Mr. Langley, and he taught me to sing a song. If you'd like to hear
it I can sing it for you.
2. Fargo
So that was Mrs. Lundegaard on the floor in there. And I guess that was
your accomplice in the wood chipper. And those three people in
Brainerd. And for what? For a little bit of money. There's more to life
than a little money, you know. Don'tcha know that? And here ya are, and
it's a beautiful day. Well. I just don't understand it.
and you know what's coming right?
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
my favorite movie of all time was, is, and always will be...
1. The Blues Brothers
Here's to finishing lists we start, no matter how late they are!
Perhaps more movie-reviews and endless sorting of my pop-culture knowledge in list form is coming in the future? Stay tuned.
In the meantime, Shanah Tovah!

| You were under the impression...
that when you were moving forward...
that you'd end up further onward...
but things ain't quite that simple!

| I saw Forgetting Sarah Marshall this weekend. When the world is turning crappy, I wish I could just shut everything off and completely immerse myself in all Judd Apatow-oriented movies. With this one and Superbad, it isn't even like I felt that I watched the bestest most witty comedies ever, even though they were close. Instead I just feel like I saw very human and very innocent stories of people acting like myself and my friends would in particular comedic situations, with of course hilarious results.
For now, the concept of McLovin has been replaced with Dracula's Lament from a Taste of Love.
I can't wait for Pineapple Express!

| Ladies and gentlemen, I have arrived on the scene.
If you are the impatient type, the link is a report that was on the local TV news and is my first televised appearance as a city planner.
