jimmy went to jail! i was at work when i heard and rode my bike as fast as i could to the northampton police department to bail him out. when i got there he was standing outside calmly smoking a cigarette. "are you okay?" i asked, mascara running. "yes, thank you for coming." aparently he had violated the beer-in-a-bag rule, i.e. no open containers within northampton city limits, and had gotton thrown in the slammer by a pissy cop. bad news, my friend.
i watched twin peaks today. david lynch is brilliant at presenting events and creating suspense. the actual plot was dull. a homecoming queen addicted to drugs and eventually raped and murdered by her father... come on, lynch, you can do better than that. there are already a billion horror movies about killing and raping women, can't you come up with something original or at least progressive. when the media constantly portrays women as helpless stupid sex objects who get raped and murdered, it creates a hostile environment for women in the real world... for you and me! i guess movies where women fight back are unpopular or boring and obviously would never sell, but dorinda showed me one and i thought it was fantastic. the female blond trailer park hitch hiker confronts the notorious serial killer by grabbing his knife and shouting in a southern drawl, "you want to fuck me when i'm dead? i don't think so! now put yer fuckin' hands on the steering wheel or i'll slit yer throat!" i want to see that in more movies, david lynch.
