Ok, first thing to note here: I can’t watch gladiator without liberal use of the fast forward. because, let’s face it, the movie is boring in between the fighting. thank goodness for movies like the 13th warrior which KNOWS that there’d better be some o’ the violence every 15-20 minutes. good times.

also, as I’m studying more and more of the scandinavian mythology and religion pre-christian, I’ve yet to see a movie capture it so well as the 13th warrior.

the 13th warrior, interesting trivia, is based off a crichton book which is itself based off of an arabian account of the northmen, and chricton tossed in beowulf too.

interesting sidenote: two movies recently deal with this, “beowulf and grendel” from 2005, and “beowulf” from 2007 starring anthony hopkins as king hrothgar. how cool is that?

interesting sidenote #2: I’m bored.

wow. loads of religiosity flying around the blogosphere lately. Sue and Loralee are a-stirrin’ the pot.

Now, I’m no stranger to some religious debate and discussion, but I’m just not in the mood for it this half of the week. So I’ve stayed out of it, with the exception of mentioning some jello. Because Jello is good.

in fact, I think I’m going to go make some right now. mmm….Jello.

proof of God’s existence? ’nuff said.

time for sleep.

it’s been a busy day of studying/blogging.

“spring break”? ha!

some idiot re-introduced the bill.

NONONO.

I didn’t want Clinton getting this kind of power, and I for sure don’t want Bush getting this kind of power. It upsets the whole bowl o’ bananas, giving the president that kind of “pick ‘n choose” power to sign bills into law. NO.

not to mention it’s unconstitutional.

idiots. I wish they’d ask me before trying to do something like this.
