Getting the dressing out is always an indication of a positive answer. -Captain

Seems to be a new formula rule in movies lately:
If you call a woman that lovely c-word, she will inevitably kill you.
Sure, maybe you had a slight chance of getting off just badly injured and beat up. But if you let the c-bomb slip, you're done for. So far, it seems to be in a rather nasty manner.

Once again, now that I actually have time to breathe and notice what is going on around me, I find myself craving intellectual and artistic inspiration. I've never been one for really precise time management, so when the whirlwind that is work suddenly stops, I find myself feeling lost. What am I to do with all this free time now that I no longer need my blackberry super-glued to my hand? Sure, World of Warcraft is fun and all, but it isn't fulfilling the stimulation I need. I have ideas, lots of ideas, but feel dazed as to how to execute them. Not to mention my already short attention span feels shot to hell.
My main problem seems to be that I have mental lists of things I want to do and need to do, but no plan of action. Anytime I contemplate a plan, I feel frustrated immediately.
Maybe what I need is just a few days to recoup and get my thoughts in order. THEN perhaps I'll be able to relax and do something with my free time.

Caught a story on Reuters today about a children's Advent calendar in Germany that includes the imagery of a serial killer from the 1920s who killed a good number of boys (Story here)

Totally messed up. Merry Christmas!

Or is every ER promo essentially the same? "THIS will BE THE episode you cannot miss!" Meanwhile, I've missed every episode for the past 10 years and I seem to be fine, thank you very much.

And on the topic of commercials, who the hell decided that a gospel-esque spin on a Mazda commercial would be the way to go? They're damn near praising jesus for that shit. It's a freaking mazda, for crying out loud.

I just watched the trailer for Alien vs Predator: Requim and I gotta say, it doesn't look like a suckfest. It looks like there's actual carnage galore and not containing a BFF moment that happened in the first AVP.
