Tuesday night follies

[gurdymonkey]

1. Totally stealing this from sasha_khan , but only because he F-locks his journal. http://godzillahaiku.tumblr.com/

2. Where's a clue by four with a rusty nail in the end of it when you need it?  Idiot Boy is stalking me on FB chat. Think he'll get the message if I log off abruptly every time he pings me? I am in no mood to deal with his stupidity right now.

In semi-related news, someone on FB who I only "friended" based on having met him once and sorta kinda knowing his wife, keeps sending me suggestions on political groups to join/become a fan of. The last two status posts I made on my profile were that my FB is a politics-free-zone. Take the hint, please!

3. Taiko kicked ass. Well, it kicked most of ours. Good hard workout to remind my left hand that it has gotten away with slacking quite long enough, thank you.

4. And for those who can't go to the Stanford Theatre, I just discovered that TCM is running Kurosawa movies on Tuesday nights all through March, quite by accident. http://www.tcm.com/thismonth/article/?cid=290029

Thanks for the heads-up on the TCM schedule - the 23rd looks like I'm going to stay home all day and night. I called C to let her (and her mom)know about this, and was reading her the schedule:

"Alright, on the 23rd, there's
Sanshiro Sugata
The Most Beautiful
The Men Who Tread on the Tiger's Tail
Sanshiro Sugata Part 2
No Regrets For Our Youth
One Wonderful Sunday
Drunken Angel
Stray Dog
Rashomon
Seven Samurai
Yojimbo..."

"Wait, there's no Sanjuro?!"

"...Sanjuro..."

I am also liking that Ran and Kagemusha are a double bill - lump the spectacles together, says I.

It's also neat how they're showing King Lear right after Ran. Great way to compare the two!

There's an option (somwhere) in facebook to block invitations from people without blocking the person. I use it for folks who invite me to join apps (and then I block the app).

if it's suprafighter direct him my way. He is uncouth but I kind of understand where he is coming from. Perhaps I can level with him to some degree. If not, I guess I could travel out there =)

1. It is.
2. The only way to level with him is to use a bulldozer. It is obvious from his post of this morning that he doesn't get it.
