I just watched Cremaster 3: The Order. I've been told many times I must see this, if not the entire series than at least the 31 minute 'highlights' DVD. I borrowed it from a friend, and finally got around to watching it tonight. Despite Niki's opinion (she eagerly watched it before I did), I approached it with an open mind ( Read more... )

The cremaster(ic) muscle is the one that tightens your scrotum.

I havent watched the films. Sounds like this is where they got the name though.

Hey, hows your sister?

yes I think it's a strange title as well. There are lots of phallic symbols in what I saw...

She's doing OK, doing rehab and physio. I'm going over there Thursday to learn how to help with her injection medication thing :\. She's walking much better and her fine motor skills in her left hand are improving, but she has sort of plateaued (spelling?) for now. She's got a wheelchair for when she ventures out and a stick for around the home when she needs it...

But yeah... howareyou?! We are thinking about L&H on Saturday night if you're interested.

Well, it sounds like she is doing better, which is a small victory, for that I am very glad. Injections eh? Good stuff doctor Rob!

Satyrday? Sure, Im not working and Id be keen, so let me know!

Seen bits of it for a uni lecture.
Unfortunately it was one of those horrible early start ones where you don't wake up properly until the end of your lecture when the coffee kicks in.
I kinda liked Richard Serra in it, but TBH I didn't really try and read the visual language of it...
I'm pretty sure I saw the whole of it at the NGV with the Guggenheim exhibition but I could be wrong... it seemed a bit different.
