Ding Dong! The Evil Paper is Finished!

RESEARCH PAPER
6:30pm the night before it's due. It's the earliest I've ever finished a major research paper for English. The record was set tonight. Yay.

VALENTINE'S DAY
Tomorrow is apparently Saint Valentine's Day. Am I the only person who barely know when it's Valentine's Day? Much less, even cares? "Singles Awareness Day" my ass. It's almost as arbitrary as Earth Day.

BOOK SALE
I went to this annual gargantuan used book sale at the State Fair grounds on Sunday. They didn't have much there that I was looking for per se, but I did wind up with well over twenty plays and several books. Between my entire family's purchase of books (maybe 40 or 50 books total), the total cost was $28. Not too shabby. Too bad my whole selection is probably going to seep into my room and not show up again until I take a road trip or something.

THE MATADOR
A businessman with bad luck meets a hitman dealing with a mental breakdown in a bar in Mexico City. This is now my favorite movie currently at AMC (partly because The Squid and the Whale is gone). Pierce Brosnan, as the hitman, delivers so brilliant a performance that you'll forget he was ever James Bond. It's hilarious. Go see it. Hell, I'll see it with you because I'd like to see it again.

"FINAL"
I'm starting to get annoyed at the number of things that use the word "final" in the title, but then spawn sequels. Final means last, as in nothing else follows it.

Final Fantasy Parts One through Eleven- I can leave this alone because it's high enough quality. But they seriously need a different name.

Friday the 13th Part 4: The Final Chapter- Fine, make crappy horror movies. Fine, make sequels to crappy horror movies. Just don't be stupid enough to write a roadblock behind the title.

Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare- This one's a bit more understandable because it's part six. But it's still a bad move: two more sequels followed it.

It's just a stupid idea to put "final" in a title. And I bet you never even thought about it.

MYSPACE
I'm not going to get a myspace.
