here;s the comment with irritating mispellings included:

That's not good. not good at all. Lowe Mill is already benefiting. It's already gone from alternative underground with the Flying Monkey Arts Center to above-ground with the Lowe Mill stuff aroudn it.

this happens againa and again ins city after city. The creative class risks going through and living in a rougher part of town, makes it more interesting and the new "cool" place to go and the upper crusts wants to kick out the pople who already live there? Let's not let Huntsville make the same mistake and instead work with people who need help instead of shuffling them off where some people dont' want to see them because it makes them "feel uncomforatble".

probably because just 2 days I saw it I was before I was thinking about a mashup of the Smurfs with Kill Bill, with Smurfette as The Bride.

is only in OGV theora format right now, but derivatives should be along in a few hours.

Lots and lots of cussing in this movie. Burn After Reading

Wife was disappointed. I liked it all right, it was definitely a Coen Brothers movie, but it really isn't the comedy the trailers have been advertising. It's dark comedy, but less comedy, more dark. In a way that will probably only really appeal to Coen brothers fans who like their non-comedies Like Blood Simple or Barton Fink.

The trailer for An American Carol looks pretty damned funny, and we're definitely seeing it (I personally think that satirizing a guy who's made 4 or 5 movies and a few tv shows is kind of silly considering the other view has had a 24 hour channel for years now. Their influence one way or the other is in no way equal.) The Zucker name is usually a guarantee of comedy gold. And Kelsey Grammer as Patton is freaking hilarious.

  Currently reading book: Do It Wrong Quickly. Neat. #

• 00:51 @Dan Christensen The best sword fight action scene ever is Basil Rathbone and Erroll Flynn in The Adventures of Robin Hood. Others copied.. #

Dated (mainly because of nmaes used that people in the current time may not be aware of) humor, but still really, really funny in parts.

I really liked this idea.

"The Library hosted "Dewey's Nightmare," seven blindfolded playwrights pick seven random volumes, and from them write seven plays in eleven days."

I just finished Cory Doctorow's YA novel _Little Brother_. Really great read everyone, not just YA should read.

We liked this movie. Kind of a chick flick with gross-out humor for the guys. What I liked was that they acted like real people, not just characters.

• 16:36 Explored Hulu earlier, mainly to see if i missed any of The Simpson's. Hope those writers are getting royalties from those internet streams. #

• 20:12 Marvelling at how genuinely bad that ABC debate was (yes, I'm late to the party.) The moderators seemed more elitist than anyone else there #
• 21:32 For many creators, inventors, etc. Their "one-off" quick idea often gets them more money and/or success than any thing they've labored over. #

• 17:42 Wow, I'd forgotten how much Michael Chertoff looks like the Supervillian Sinestro. Sinestro went to far on the side of order. His order. #
