terminator

Wow... we're crossing the border from January to February tomorrow. How was your first month of 2009? Mine was spent largely indoors, in front of the keyboard.

Just watched "Pineapple Express" with my brother David, Mr. Netflix Member. Pretty funny flick, but a bit weird for a stoner movie: no memorable hallucination scenes, but lots of gunfire, and one character gets the "Inego Montoya" treatment. Some classic lines in the script, though. It wasn't as witty as Tarantino's dialogue, but the main characters did bumble their way through the plot, which is what you're looking for in a stoner flick.

I wish I had something to say about last night's BSG, but I can't seem to muster the necessary ganas. The human race is winding down, tearing itself apart, and all that's left is watching how the chips fall. Baltar made reference to a cryptic occurrence in the previous season, when Gaeta stabbed him in the neck after Baltar, in the brig at the time, had whispered something provocative to Gaeta. I can't even drum up enough curiosity to speculate on the content of the utterance. Gaeta's taken over the Galactica, Adama has threatened that there will be no forgiveness for such an action... where can one go from there?

Proofing to do. I might be writing something tomorrow, but in the meantime... have a great Superbowl Sunday!
