The Five Obstuctions.
If you are looking for a good movie to see, and you don't mind subtitles, this is the one for you. We watched in in my German and Scandinavian Film class. It is different and unique, and quickly moved its way on my list of favorites. It came out in 2003, so it is not new, but it may be to you as it was to me.
View the trailer here.

Quote of the Day
"There is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better, for worse, as his portion;... no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to him to till."
Ralph Waldo Emerson from Self-Reliance (READ)
In other words, be yourself, and work hard.

Bien hecho. This month started interesting, then faded into the abyss of boring. I guess I can't really say that because it has been fun in the very unexciting way. We went down to Mesa, AZ for the wedding of the midgets... in other words my friends Skylar and Kaitlin. That is where I joined a biker gang, actually I founded it. I am calling it 'Los Gachos". We returned, and started school. Let me be the first to inform you it is entertaining....So entertaining that we went to Sundance and saw the movie Rudo y Cursi. It was totally worth it. Also I am trying to figure this whole blogging thing out, you know I need to dress this up so I have a chance at dating that one hot chick in my political science class. You know the one who sits up front and answers all the questions. Oh yeah, then I watched the inauguration. Pretty good stuff ( other than that awful rendition by Aretha Franklin). I mean I don't want to offend anyone, but would it hurt her to just sing, and not yell or spaz out on stage? But the speech by President Obama was a good one. No, Really. I enjoyed it, and felt that rather "patriotic feeling" rising in my gut. Honestly, I look forward to these next few years. For one, now I won't have to sit and listen to mind-numbing comments from Hollywood celebrities about the war in Iraq, or President Bush. I mean George Clooney's movies suck, and don't even get me started on Ben Affleck or Barbara Streisand. People like them bug me, and as a matter of fact, bug America. What is the problem with our grand country...mentes bien cerradas. More Coming.
