Dead as Fuck

Tony Curtis, dead as fuck: 3 June 1925 – 29 September 2010.

On a side note, I accidentally saved this image off of a white power website.

Oh Shit

That's my dad's bar.

Drink Up, Judah Ben-Hur

As you know, I watch The Simpsons from time to time. I've been known to recite lines from it at important points in our many conversations. I also like movies. On this, I'm sure we can all agree.

I'm Back

My internet is down. Now it's back up. It's kind of nice. Now I don't have to read books to find out important information like the name of Captain Ahab's boat and what Higgins' tour of duty in WWII looked like.

There's a rule of film Mark Kermode brings up from time to time-- and he's usually right about this kind of thing-- which is that all movies are better with a helicopter explosion. Case in point:
