My life depends on your

My life depends on your freshness.

Narnia

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, was great. I'd recommend it.

Three new movies

Rent has a pretty touching ending. Chicken little is goofy. Pride and Prejudice has lots of dancing and people getting married. For those of you looking for a goofy movie with a touching ending about people dancing and getting married, no one movie has it all. You're going to have to see all three.

Masked gunmen capture Iraqi city

But in the past fortnight more than 200 Iraqis, mostly civilians, have been killed in suicide blasts and car bombings (www.theaustralian.news.com.au)

Pizza

I ordered a pizza ... mainly because I wanted something to eat for breakfast tomorrow.

It's been awhile.

A lot of great things have happened lately, but sometimes great things are hard to write about. Whether you want to call me lucky or blessed, I have much more than I deserve. I'd call it blessed and I owe my thanks to God.

I don't think I've written religiously on this blog before, but if you'll bear with me while I share something, we'll be back to movie reviews for Rent and Narnia in no time.

For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed [thee]? or thirsty, and gave [thee] drink?

When saw we thee a stranger, and took [thee] in? or naked, and clothed [thee]?

Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done [it] unto me.

Go Potter

I always think its funny the way movie titles are abbreviated on ticket stubs. This one was "H.P. Goblet." It was a good movie. I didn't know what was going on some of the time, but I'd recommend it. It seemed like everyone was falling in love during that movie. ... Well, I'm off to bed, it's 3am.

Nintendo

Wow! That's small.

Show a little concern

I think we should all boycott sony for awhile because of the root kits. You know, a good old fanshioned boycotting. It's really simple and probably involves less work than you might think. You don't even really have to do anything, you just have to stop doing buying sony stuff.

I would suggest not buying anything until after the PS3 comes out. If first day sales of PS3 are really low, and second day sales are higher, I think they'll recognize what's going on.

Make your boycotting forefathers proud.

Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story

For those of you who like Dakota Fanning and Horses, Dreamer is the must-see movie of the year.

Most of you have probably already seen Seabiscuit, and if this movie satisfied all your horse movie related needs, you can probably pass on Dreamer. However, if Seabuscuit left you wanting more in the way of horse related cinematography, Dreamer is definately the answer you've been looking for.

Same goes for Dakota Fanning fans and War of the Worlds. If War of the Worlds left your glass of Dakota Fanning related cravings half empty, then Dreamer is just the kind of movie that can fill the other half of your Dakota Fanning cup right to the brim.

Good movie. I'd recommend it.

Nintendo

I like this picture. He looks like a guy that knows what's going on. I've always been a big nintendo fan. I'm reading an article now. It's at IGN.com, a really great website.

The new Nintendo revolution should be a lot of fun. I'm really excited. ... I should have waited until I finished reading the article before I started writing a blog about it. ... I'll be right back.

Ok, I read it. It's good. I'd recommend the article. I like the part where it says, "Nintendo Revolution is decidedly not running in this race. Not because we can't afford the entry fee. But because we don't want the prize."

They really are looking for a pretty big change. I think it'll be a good change. I think there will be a lot of new games out there. Some will be a hit, others will be a miss, but overall all, it's times like this that I just like to sit back and watch technology amaze me.

Test 2

Cool, now I can take a picture with my phone and post it on my blog.

Happy Halloween

Short 3 minute movie by my room mate and me.

Even Newer Book

I got another new book. It's called, "Multivariate Statistical Modelling Based on Generalized Linear Models." It's over my head, but hopefully that just means it has a lot of good stuff in it. So, it should be good. I'd recommend it to anyone familiar with linear models, but looking for something more generalized.

I saw the movie, "Proof," last night. It's got a mathematician that goes crazy in it. If I ever go insane it will at least, perhaps, mean that I am finally becoming a good mathematician. Overall it was just an ok movie, I wouldn't really recommend it. The whole time I was like, "Come on, when are they going to show the proof?!" They didn't show it until the very end. And even then, just a couple pages of it. I would have liked to see a little more of the proof, but maybe the movie was targeting people that "aren't that in to proofs."

New Book

I bought the book, "Where the Wild Things Are" today. It's a great book. I'd recommend it. I had my room mate read it out loud to me (not the room mate that's the Psychology PhD student, the other one). He enjoyed it. He liked the part where all the wild things were acting fierce and Max is just sitting there all unimpressed.

Movies

The first half of Wallace and Gromit is pretty good. I fell asleep about half way through, not because it was boring, just because I was tired. The best part was, however, the short clip before the movie started - a five minute segment with the penguins from madagascar. I didn't stop laughing from start to finish. It was really hilarious. It's worth the price of the movie ticket just to go see a penguin slap a blowling pin in the face and say, "I'll deal with you later." It's really good. I would definately recommend it. Even if you go see another movie, it'll be tempting to sneak into wallace and gromit just to watch the penguin clip.

Pyramids

A pretty cool picture of the pyramids in Egypt.

Why study when you can write a blog

It's getting late. I've been studying as much as I can these past few days. I have a big test tomorrow. The chapter is called, "Survival Distributions and Life Tables," but that's just a fancy way of saying "Chapter 3: A few uninspiring reasons to memorize lots of formulas". It's late now though. I'm leaving in a few minutes to pick my roommate up and I'm getting too tired to do some serious studying. We get to use a formula sheet, so if I make a good formula sheet, there shouldn't be very much memorizing at all. In your face, Chapter 3!

I caved in and got the internet for my phone. It's kind of cool, but slow and unreliable. Kind of like a Tortoise that never keeps commitments.
