Due to the conjunction of several things: a day spent doing something I don't like, namely flying, the purchase of Entertainment Weekly (don't worry, I also bought The Economist), and my best efforts at work avoidance (which aren't successful. I'm a translating fiend at the moment.), this post will feature lost of random observations. Most of them will lack both humor and intelligence.

1. I am going to see Troy this summer. It looks cheesy, Orlando Bloom is without facial hair, the Trojans in general are better looking than the Greeks (Say what you will, Brad Pitt is bland.), fight scenes, fight scenes, fight scenes.

2. I wore my cardigan inside-out for most of the morning.

3. The funniest thing about EW is Dalton Ross' "What to Watch." On Mission to Mars: "Cheadle in space."

4. The guy who searched my backpack also grinds his teeth.

5. The Montréal bagels offered by Jetsgo are not Montréal bagels. They aren't even Toronto-style Montréal bagels. Instead, they are enriched-flour, sesame-seed-speckled, dry, slightly stale, holeless hockey pucks.

6. Bad French manicures make everyone involved look like a porn star.

7. It's good to be home. It would be better if K. were here, of course.

Vive!

Just saw "Troy" lastnight. Yes the Trojans are better looking than the Greeks, but the Greeks wear shorter skirts. Not that any of that matters, this movie is Lord of the Rings meets Gladiator minus the interesting dialogue (hm?). I didn't think that the actress who played "Helen" could have launched a thousand ships and was sorely disappointed that Wolfgang Peterson omitted any scenes with the Gods. Still, it is a popcorn movie.

Couldn't figure out how to work the posting comment thingie so am doing this via "Anonymous", although really, who else calls you Viva?

Mwah!
