The gleaming, spitting Mirror; The Neverending Work Week; Your Ho roscopes (Courtesy of The Onion)

      I saw Mirrormask last night with Tambora and Gikin.  I enjoyed it.  I thought the story was interesting, if traditional, and the main character had enough pluck to keep me from yawning.  The plot developed well and the visuals were intriguing and at times stunning but my earlier guess of it being Dali-Esque was fairly on-point.  Not a  bad thing but a little much at times.  The editing was strange...jumping from spot to spot at times rather hastily.  If you like the movie Labyrinth you will enjoy this one too.  And, to my inestimable relief, it is NOTHING like the story that I am currently writing.  It gave me some ideas about fleshing out my main character more, but they really aren't similar at all.  THAT made me almost weep in relief.

     

      This week seems to be dragging on and on and on....and on...like a song on the radio that you wish you could fast forward to because you know something better is about to come on.  Why not change stations?  You do and they're all playing the same freakin song...not a horrible song but one you're tired of...Like a KEM song....Love Calls....not a bad song in and of itself but how many times have you Heard that bitch?  Exactly...work week like That 'Chall....like that chall....

 

      Oh and I jacked these from www.theonion.com so if you wanna see some more hilarious stuff, go there...but I had to grab these cause they had me laughing on the floor.

 

Your Horoscope

October 12, 2005 | Issue 41*41

Aries March 21 - April 19

Most people are ignorant, dull, and impulsive, so even at your age, you should be able to find a spouse.

Taurus April 20 - May 20

The stars are becoming a little upset at your constant pestering about the future. Would it kill you to maybe loosen up a little and live for the moment?

Gemini May 21 - June 21

You would in fact leave for Canada right this minute if it didn't mean leaving the only nation on Earth with the vision to teach squirrels to water-ski.

Cancer June 22 - July 22

Fad or not, the high-protein, meat-heavy diet thing seems to work for you, but that could be just part of the benefits of being a two-ton Kodiak bear.

Leo July 23 - August 22

Your life will become somewhat easier when you learn that money and food are often kept inside of those little cars you see parked here and there with the pizza signs affixed to their roofs.

Virgo August 23 - September 22

You've known since you were very young that you were different from all the others, but still, you find it maddening that they usually put the naked people where they are very difficult to watch.

Libra September 23 - October 23

You've never been afraid to try new things, at least not as such. You're afraid of the special Church-controlled hit squad that finds people trying new things and gives them two behind the ear.

Scorpio October 24 - November 21

You'll become a pariah and cast out from the company of decent people when it become clear that nothing will in fact change the way you look at tooth-whitening mouthwash forever.

Sagittarius November 22 - December 21

You're the one who knows where all the bodies are buried, but that's only because trucks arrive at all hours and bury bodies in your yard, and the truck drivers always make you sign for them.

Capricorn December 22 - January 19

While it may be true that the emperor has no clothes, you should have taken into consideration how remarkably well-clothed, and well-armed, all his bodyguards seem to be.

Aquarius January 20 - February 18

There's nothing holding you back from achieving your wildest dreams, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that stronger and more restrictive gun laws are badly needed.

Pisces February 19 - March 20

You always knew you'd be sent straight to Hell when your time came, but you never thought they'd make you go there in a tacky white Hummer limousine.

 

Yeah...
