I didn’t know there was an English version. I’ve never seen Faster Pussycat Kill Kill or Death Proof.

Just posting because I am reading Kiss for a Killer and I might want to read the other reissued book. Kinda of like a female James Bond with a noir style.

There are some of us that find clowns scary and even depressing.

Just posting this song, because I find it so sweet and innocent, just like the movie it is from.



Someone posted the entire movie on YouTube. Good thing. Can’t really find it here.

I just finished watching season 2 episode 11 of Merlin. I’m so loving this show. I do like this take on the Arthurian legend. I think the cast is great, the set up, story lines, characters, ect. Oh and the cinematography is great. I just wish I had a bigger screen than my computer to watch it.

Uther has declared war on magic. “Magic is not a crime but a gift. I should be able to walk freely”, a character with magical power says.

I thought it might be like Robin Hood, which I have in the background now because I like Richard Armitage as Guy, otherwise I don’t really find it that interesting. But it is not. It is so much better IMO.

But anyway, two more episodes left.  But there is a third season.

My friend got me this book at a used book sale. It was the “Twilight” of our generation. Well not as big, since there was no internet. All the girls were talking about the books and the made for TV movie and how cute Rex Smith was, who looks like IMO a mix of Peter Frampton and Rod Stewart.

Truth is I never read the books or watch the movie, and that is why my friend bought the book for me. She put it on my desk this morning, and I had to break it to her that “Waiting Games” was the sequel to “Sooner or Later.” She said that she would have to buy me the first book then. ;) Lucky for her I found the movie on Youtube.

I also was able to find a video to the hit song from the movie called, “You Take My Breath Away”.

So much blue and white in this video: the clouds, sand, waves, sea, ocean, ski, bubbles and birds. I believe I saw a snow cap mountain, unless it was a giant sand dune. I’m getting to relax watching it and yes I’m procrastinating writing for wrisomifu.

So many...

I surprised when one of my students didn’t really have a signature. She was trying to create one. I asked why. She said that she never really learned cursive and didn’t really need it. This made sense to me. So I asked a few other students and parents about their children. And some said that their children didn’t know how, because they never used it.

They are taught it when they are in a certain grade, but are not required to write papers using it. In fact they are not allowed. I know it seems kind of sad that this is disappearing and to some it seems that this generation and future generations are being robbed of a gift.

I guess I think of a future of being in an old folk’s home passing cursive notes to others of my generation, and the younger staff being upset about not being able to read my “scribble.”
Things come and go. I don’t think this generation is stupid for not knowing it, but I do feel a sadness and yes surprised, because I just assumed they new how to read and write cursive writing.

Some links about the death of cursive.

For September 2010 Wuthering Bites

We knew it would happen sooner or later, but some people thought that Healthcliff would make a better werewolf than Vampire. Maybe later.

Sarah Gray’s WUTHERING BITES, a retelling of Wuthering Heights in which Heathcliff is a vampire, to John Scognamiglio at Kensington, in a very nice deal, for publication in September 2010, by Evan Marshall at Evan Marshall Agency (World).

Just wanted to post this, so I can see it tomorrow. Watched most of the CBS line up today. Eddy Van Halen was on T&HM. I feel old. TBBT was okay. Watching The Nanny now, which I usually enjoy.
