looking forward to getting out of this place

cue that really awesome animals song right now.... as occasionally we gotta get out of this place. and this weekend we are doing that in upstate new york.

we encourage you to do the same. take a nice long weekend for yourself. after the olympics and right in the middle of our nation's dualing propaganda festivals, you deserve it. so relax.

if you happen to be sucked into all this "obama as savior" nonsense go watch hamlet 2 so you can learn the words to rock me sexy jesus...or is that big eared jesus?

and if you're waiting for next week's john mccain festival, well, frankly that's even more depressing, but since you're already in that mood...go watch isabelle coixet's new film elegy as it is practically guaranteed to make you even sadder.

if you're like me and see nothing but two politicians(and i use that word as an insult) duking it out for the ultimate prize in the padded resume contest, you probably already feel like this world is completely screwed and might as well just plop down the sawbuck and go to the megaplex and see disaster movie.

talk about depressing...where for art thou michael phelps?
america needs you back.

Curious where in NY? You have an old friend who happens to live in Syracuse. Oh and by the way, great blog.

The only thing that would have made that movie any good would be if Rihanna showed up and sang "Ella-Ella-Elegy." Man, it sucked. Makes perfect sense that Coixet also directed My Life Without Me, I hated that poo-piece, too.
