Damn good movie. I recommend it highly.
I need to see The Royal Tenenbaums again, this put me in the mood to see some more Wes Anderson stuff.

One thing I love that I’ve been seeing in movies nowdays is wonderful retro anachronism. The Life Aquatic features acoustic couplers for speakerphones, bleepy pre-techno music by Devo’s Mark Mothersbaugh, and a wonderful World War II era submarine-hunter-turned-oceanographic-vessel, another favorite of mine Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events has reel-to-reel tapes in the dashboard of 40’s style cars and the count arriving in his autogyro.

The Life Aquatic sets itself in a purposefully vague time period. Team Zissou is a relic, but that’s a wonderful thing. It give us a glance into a world no more. I only wish I had Team Zissou styled adidas.

Yup.

I got my SAT scores back. 800 math. 700 verbal. 650 writing.

Working on this site again. In the background.

Long weekend coming up. That’s gonna be awesome, if I do say so myself. Here’s some random crap in a list:

• CompSci is finally moving on from C++ and Pascal to Java. Took long enough. The bastardly old man that runs the class told a mildly amusing story about why we can’t use the computers yet. Something about freshmen eating mouse balls.
• I just installed the Ultimate Tag Warrior wordpress plugin here. I’m going to try to move away from catagorizing my posts and instead rely on tags. They are simpler and more handy for the author.
• I’ve been totally overeating lately. It hasn’t been totally awful crap like cookies or ice cream, but eventually even apple sauce or celery has its limits. My mom accuses me of having an eating disorder when I say stuff like this, but the plain fact is that I’m overweight. No, I’m not obese, but I’m not trying to look like Gackt either.
• English class is hard as hell.
• Hannah is a cutie.
• My dad’s gotten a band together. It’s a weird mix: Five people. Two of them have PHds. The ages range at least 3 decades. Two drummers, Two guitarists, and a bassist (who happens to be female and of Argentinian descendance.)

This is Cracky-Chan. Long story behind her (Inquire if you want to know), but I think this is a good picture.

UPDATE 2005-11-13 :: If you are here from google and looking for info about Cracky-Chan, the best I can do it to point you towards The Crackypedia.
