does puerto rico have the training table?

Bush v. Kerry II (2004): i love seeing bush get so riled up like he does. he can get so angry and rude which it makes it all worth watching. again, i think kerry won. and i tried to not be biased when i made that determination. he was just truly better. strange to say, but he seems more and more like a "people's man" than bush is these days. the way he talked to the audience members and called them by name was great. bush just got too caught up in emotion to remember what his campaign trainers taught him to do. either way, my mom had it right when she said both candidates need to stay on topic and answer the question given. i understand how hard it is to do that because they want to fill in time and want to make sure they get at least one good opponent bashing in each answer and probably a million other factors weigh in when they answer, but i would think a good strategy would be to answer the question and give your stance on an issue, regardless of what it is. that's all the people really want. oh well. 2 down, 1 to go. vote for kerry.

Super Size Me (2004): pretty entertaining and very informative. actually, a little more informative than entertaining, but again, its a documentary. there are many times during the movie where i wondered if he was just exaggerating a bit to prove his point. but then i had to remind myself that i shouldn't assume that because no one has ever done what he has and documented it. for that reason i guess i have no choice but to believe him. its a movie that really makes you think, not just about mcdonalds, but about the american health culture as a whole. i'm glad to say that its been like 6 months since i've eaten at mcdonalds, but sadly i can't say that about wendys...mmm...wendys good. not a movie you'd watch over and over again, but worth seeing once. a nice reality check for all us lazy people. see it.

Shark Tale (2004): so, i guess this is the new thing now. take 6 really really famous actors and throw them in a cartoon. i'm pretty sure that during the previews of the movie i saw three more of these things coming out this year. anyways, i'll see nearly any will smith movie, renee zellweger, jack black, de niro, scorsese, and jack black movie that could ever come out. they are all brilliant in their own little ways. but not a single one of them should ever be in a movie together (robert and martin the exception of course). they are all stupid in this movie because we all have preconceived notions of what to expect. the whole time i'm picturing the fresh prince and bridget jones hooking up. just doesn't work. the movie itself was gay. too many damn references to our little world above water. it just got old seeing Gup and Coral Cola. we get the point already (and thanks faggots sitting next to me for point out every time they did that and laughing hysterically). the musical numbers sucked, the actual plot seemed to fade in and out between Gup and Coral Cola and the stupid Workin at the Carwash song, and i hate angelina jolie and katie current...hahahaha. so freaking funny. because her real name is couric, but they say "current" as in the flow of water...wow. someone got paid a lot of money to think that up. don't see it.

also saw Gangs of New York, but for lack of room, i'll post that tomorrow. i've been finding it harder and harder to write these days. just getting way too busy and i'm barely working anymore, which is where i used to make my updates. anyways, i love lists as you all know. well i've made a small list of things i'm looking forward to. in no particular order here goes:
  1. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for PC. it'll be out in a few weeks on PS2, but who knows when PC will see it. i spent all weekend on the website. i cannot freaking wait. the maps are gonna be larger than anything i've ever seen. from what i can tell, they will be of L.A., San Fran, and possibly Vegas. my new favorite team: San Fierro Sixty Niners!!
  2. Michael Moore speaking at our school next wednesday. its gonna be a riot!! muahaha. i wouldn't doubt a few riots breaking out here and there. there's gonna be like 50 officers working, and paramedics on standby, and the freaking swat team!! should be great. click the link for the lowdown on our gay little school/city/state/culture/people.
  3. Next semester starting. i hate this semester, but love it too. i have so much fun during the week sometimes, that i hate for each week to roll by so quick, however i love it. spring schedule is already out, so i'm having a ball picking my classes. thus far, ethical issues in crim justice, contract law, legal ethics, two gay 1 credit classes, and stats for behavior sciences. sounds jolly fun.
  4. This coming saturday when i can eat at the training table again. burgers are the bloody best! last week wasn't so hot, so i'm looking forward to making up for it. i don't know what else to say about them. you just have to try it.
  5. The golden globes and oscars for this year. i can't even imagine what would be up for best pic and all, but i can't wait. i'm sure more movies will come out with that best pic quality later this year, but i'm already stoked for it!! january 16th for the globes, february 27th for the academy.

finally, on saturday i took my first ever LSAT practice test. didn't do as good as i wanted to. in fact had to guess on literally half of the games section. ended up getting 11 out of 26 right on that section. my final score was a 151 (scores are between 120 and 180). this not-so-wonderful score is good enough to get me into U of Mississippi, Syracuse, U of Nevada, U of Arkansas, Rutgers, U of Wyoming, and the University of Puerto Rico, just to name a few. needless to say i'd rather die than to go to any one of those schools. luckily i have until june to get better. cheyenne's not that far from denver right?
