You have dual citizenship, Deloria?  That's interesting!  Why is that?  Were you born here?  Or is perhaps one of your parents American?

I SO did not know that! :D

So ahem, back to my embarrassing Twilight confession...Katie, I hate to break it to you, but I'm really not hating this book.  At.  All. GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!  It's so interesting--I actually like it better than the actual Twilight books.  So far I finished the ridiculously long interview, but I've read all the histories and backstories of the Cullen family, and I'm about to start on the Volturi's story. ;]

I shame myself.  :wall:

Just returned from the theater:
I liked Rango better than The King's Speech!

Morwen

lol Rango does look like a cute movie though.  As for the Kings Speech, I found it to be a little slow (you have to expect that..) but it was still good.
Happy are we who find humor in ourselves, for we shall never cease to be amused!

Forget cute. If you don't know who R. duke and Dr. Gonzo are, you're going to miss atleast one of the jokes.

And animals die right before there is a joke about prostate exams! With hairy hands!! How cool is that!

Deloria--what's your second citizenship?

I'm Swiss. :) You have no idea how annoying it is, as a royalist, to belong to two countries that are showcases for democracy. :P Have I mentioned that we vote on whether to vote on whether to vote? :P

I though Forrest Gump was possibly the most overrated movie of all time.  Just an all around bad (at best mediocre) movie trying to overcompensate by using emotional manipulation.

I thought that was the whole point of art.

They were seated next to each other in a seedy restaurant because everything else was closed. She was on a date and he was out with a friend for drinks. :P

So what if I am, huh? Anyways, I work better when I'm drunk. It makes me fearless! If I see a bad guy, I'll just point my sword at him and saaaaaaaaaay, "Hey! Bad guy! You're not s'posed to be here! Go home or I'll stick you with my sword 'til you go, 'Ouch! I'm dead!' Ah-ha-ha!" Ha-ha. *hic* See? Ain't no one gonna be messin' wit' ol', Benny!

Nah, it could still work. Maybe the guy she was with was being a jerk and he stepped in chivalrously... or perhaps he was just boring as hell and thus Deloria's father provided a good alternative for conversation.

XD XD I don't think he was either. :P As far as I know, they all got along rather well and then my mother spontaneously decided that she was going to go to Paris for the weekend and asked if anyone wanted to come along. :P They decided to get married about two days later. :P

And then (for Haids' sake since she wants a Swiss fairy tale romance) they traveled to Paris on a flying swan coach created by their fairy godmother.

Not at all.  Art should have something to say on its own.  If it needs to resort to manipulation to get across what it wants to say, then maybe it's expressing itself badly.  Reaction is not art.  Art can cause a reaction, but too many times people think that just because someone feels good or shocked means that the artist must be saying something.  It doesn't.  Forrest Gump took a nice, heart-warming concept and ham-handedly pounded it into the ground.

Deloria

For sappy purposes, I should add that the proposal took place on the Eiffel Tower. ::) Though if anyone ever did that to me, I'd say no. :P It really is an eyesore. :P
