Thanks for the written TLC. Mave -- I cannot stop sneezing, oi! I've waited all day to take DayQuil, so I'm going to do that, then take NyQuil a bit earlier tonight, so hopefully I don't feel so draggy tomorrow morning. Butt kick indeed! We got <strong><a href="http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Sony+-+3D+Wi-Fi+Built-In+Blu-ray+Player/1666042.p?id=1218321300042&skuId=1666042" target="new" rel="nofollow">this</a></strong>, Boom Boom. Love it so far. And I shouldn't have said "died" -- the old one plays DVDs perfectly. It just won't grab a wireless signal anymore. After about 5 hours of trial shutdowns, firmware/software upgrades, and numerous phone calls to our ISP, Cisco and Samsung, everyone deduced that the WiFi on the player was just DOA -- at least for us. And rather than send it in for repair (ludicrous charges), we just decided to get a new unit. We're enjoying it. Only bummer: no Blockbuster app at this time (they're not part of the Bravia Internet Video Network, which Sony supports). So I cancel Blockbuster at the end of my trial period. Suz -- I ain't complainin'! I just made CHOCOLATE CAKE. :-) I love yous guys! Thanks for the written TLC. Mave — I cannot stop sneezing, oi!

I remember you saying that you felt "something" coming on, yesterday. I'm so sorry you're feeling poorly! I say wrap yourself in your warm blanket, stay on the sofa and watch movies until the big game. Oh, and have The Thriller make you some nice, hot tea/honey&lemon! Love you! Well, nuts.

Yay! Thanks for your insight -- I always covet your take on these things, especially when there's doubt or confusion in my mind as to a director's real intent. I agree that artists should push the envelope; indeed, look what I've done to the concept of mediocrity in online journaling. :lol: Let's get together soon and catch up. Well look who it is. Yay!

To my taste anyway. Malicks pretentiousness seems to rub people the wrong way but I think Malick is only pretentious like God is pretentious. Thats the most pretentious thing I've ever said. I think its difficult to get into the movies symbolism without getting religious, but if thats not a problem with whoever you are talking about it with I found this to be insightful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh4FS8OOn3A Anywho Jax I enjoyed reading your thoughts on this. You should check out "Badlands" and "Days of Heaven" which are Malick at a more accessible level. Not that I think you need that, it just depends on what you want out of a movie. I admit "Tree of Life" is not a joyful fun movie going experience. But I think it goes to places film has not been before and if film is an art it should be pushing at those boundaries and do so in a way that is specific and unique to the medium. It is more of an experience than a story and relates its message more through feeling and mood than in words. In other news I'm sorry I've been out of contact. I've unplugged from the rest of the world for awhile but I'll be back.
