I wonder where the burrow-dwelling critters go when south Florida gets really wet? Snakes, turtles, frogs, crabs, rabbits, chipmunks, armadillos, moles ...I suspect that living in a hole isn't always great survival strategy here.
Sky High looks like it'll be cute. Kurt Russell makes for a good Superhero-dad, I think. Some kids in the hall alumni, and Lynda Carter, too. Looks like it'll be a fun, goofy movie to take up the slack that I think FF will create.
Danny went to see Fantastic Four yesterday, but I haven't heard his review yet. Ebert wasn't crazy about it.
I've held a long-standing suspicion that it's going to be pretty low on the superhero movie totem pole.

Moment of Lyric: (mp3)
Chimpanzee 1: Help! The human's about to escape.
Troy: Get your paws off me, you dirty ape!
Chimpanzee 2: (gasp) He can talk!
Orangutans: He can talk! He can talk! He can talk!
Troy: I can sinnnnnnnnnnng!
Chimp Nurse: Oooh! Help me, Dr. Zaius!
Speaking of which - Check out this awesome planet of the Apes resource.. including coloring books!
Good grief... world's ugliest dog. Not "so ugly, he's cute" either. Not for the easily spooked.
It amazes me that so many people who know right from wrong choose to do the bad thing. They know that what they're going to do is going to hurt someone, isn't honest or kind, and won't make anything better in any way aside from filling an immediate desire or craving.
I'm talking about on a large scale, too.. not just self abuse like smoking a cigarette, or eating a french fry. If you hurt only yourself, well, that's your right. People who cheat, steal, and deliberately hurt others because they want something, usually *right now*.
I wonder what usually sets off that sense of justification for doing unkind things? Some kind of entitlement? The thrill of doing something bad? No thought at all of consequences, and just living for the moment?
Those are all pretty screwed up.
I'm glad that I feel that most people don't act that way... but there are a whole lot of those other folks, too.
Come to think of it, there are a lot of gullible people out there, as well.
I heard a factoid that one in seven adults in the USA has a tattoo. So.. there are more people with tattoos than there are gay folk (from 1-10%, depending on who you ask)? More tattooed folk than Black? That seems rather high. I'd like to see the breakdown on that.... if one person has two tattoos, do they count twice?
I've seen someone try to steal a bike, and when they couldn't have it, they bent one of the wheels, so the owner wouldn't be able to ride off with it, either. I suspect a case of "well, if I can't have it, nobody can".
Medical History of the Presidents of the United States - Taft had quite a record.
Some people are like slinkies ..

Date: 2005-07-10 12:46 pm (UTC)every person who works at my favorite coffee shop has a visible one, and 75% of their customers.
i'd say 20% at least of the cool part of town has one visible.
then there are all the ones you don't see.
i have two.

Date: 2005-07-10 12:54 pm (UTC)Most folks I know that have gotten ink have more than one.
I'd think that the counts are higher in less conservative areas... I suspect the more conservative folks with body art are either ex-military or extremists (like skinheads etc).
I've dated more girls with tattoos than without, to th epoint where I find it to be a pleasant change of pace when I'm with someone that *doesn't* have something added cosmetically.
I wonder how long before tats hit critical mass, and the cool kids think it's passe, or even overly trendy to have one?

Date: 2005-07-10 06:54 pm (UTC)Ahh, I don't understand tatoos. I just don't like the visual texture of inked skin. (grains in the coloring...) Give me a clean piece of paper anyday! I also love fluid lines. I don't think you get much of that on tatoos. It's just the nature of the beast.
Hello henna.
P.S. that dog is disturbing. Henson's creature shop should use him as a model.

I don't know much about Chinese Crested Hairless dogs, but the existence of Sam shows that dog breeders are among the most twisted people on the planet.
