the past few days have brought me decisions from university of nevada, las vegas and university of nebraska. i'm looking forward to the day that this excruciating law school mess is done with. three left.
the first week of my post-graduation life will consist of perfecting in the art of the stay-at-home husband. next week, who knows. the graduation wasn't too bad. my familia-in-law rocks so it was wild times as usual with them visiting. the school's valedictorian was this 19 year-old accountant major who, although deserving of the honor based on how insane she is when it comes to school, seriously acted like a snobby fifteen year old. hardly what i would want as a representation of the graduating class. the president of our school was as usual, the coolest and wackiest administrator i've ever seen. but have i said that i'm not getting my grades until may 4? they don't matter, but i'm still really curious to see how this ridiculous semester panned out.
three more schools. oregon, indiana, seattle. what do you think? it's hard to think about. seriously, what's it like in canadia? i'm going to play some gta and watch a little coppola and pacino. get my mind off of it all.
Capote (2005): the movie is interesting, but only for the fact that you wait and wait for something to happen. i was drawn to the story only because nothing was going on and i waited and waited for it to build to some surprise or something. sure, he’s writing a book about some murder, but so what? i realize that much of the movie has to do with capote and how he evolves from start to finish. sorry, but that gets a little boring if that's all the audience has. i suppose there were no really big surprises because that's how it happened in real life. there is no doubt that philip seymour hoffman, who has already proven that he can play so many roles to perfection, certainly deserves praise for this performance. but does he deserve his oscar over ledger? not a chance fat boy. should have gone to heath all the way. my final thought is that this movie really reminds me of the first basic instinct with its genre and style and even the similarities between capote and catherine tramell. not worth seeing though.
Ethan: sorry, don't have time to read other articles. you ask for sources of war critics. their sources are the military in iraq who have failed to discover any wmds. that's why we "chose iraq", so what exactly is the proof that is making bush look right? i agree that bush couldn't get support today to invade iran, and i'm sure that if he could get that support, we'd be over there within two years. and you are okay with this? you are okay with the leader of this country going around and telling other countries how they are going to run, otherwise expect a lot of your people to die for the cause. i'm all for stopping iran from creating nuclear weapons to kill us, but i think bush and others would jump the gun just like they did in iraq. and of course iran ultimately wants nukes. i'm not that naive. as far as what to do with them, that's hard to say. we should stick with diplomacy for a few years, but that won't work for these guys. we then wait until we believe they are on the verge of creating a bomb. if they are a threat to the u.s. or other nations, then i'm sure we'll get another coalition of losers to add another war to the history books. maybe there are some things we just can't control. there is only so much that humans and americans can do. i suppose no matter how hard we try, not all wars are preventable. i'm surprised you don't just recommend assassinating president ahmadinejad. knowing you, you would probably support a covert op to assassinate every bad guy leader in the world. hey that's cool. it's all about spreading freedom. and if bush has done nothing wrong, then explain his approval ratings.
