I watched all four movies you mentioned. I like them all with the exception of Clerks. I only liked the cadence of the banter of one of the clerks, and, yes, those scenes are unforgettable. But I didn’t think it was funny—just weird. Charlie’s Angels was indeed goofy. I thought it was funny. I also loved the soundtrack cuz the music reminded me of my youth. I can’t believe I used to listen to Motley Crue. I also love dance movies. Gladys has the Save the Last Dance DVD. We love the audition scene (the music for that was great! the R&B mixed with the orchestra music—nice blend of classical and soul). I even watched an Australian foreign film about a ballroom dancer who wanted to win a tournament so badly and a Japanese foreign film about a man who took ballroom dance because he was lonely. Yes, I’m corny. I could not send you an URL with my section if I wanted to. The only way you can read it is if you press “random” and by luck you find it OR you know my dairist name OR you know the age I put down OR you know the location I put down OR you know the name of my diary OR they feature it on the “recent entries” OR I’m the Editor’s Choice (most unlikely).

    The indie movie I really want to watch is Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Does anyone have vampire movies that they recommend? I’m trying to create a filmography of vampire movies.

I have been so depressed lately. Been worrying about popping the question to Dot. I has dawned to me that my sister is getting married in a few weeks and this is putting some pressure to me about propossing to Dot. In all my wonder years, I have been told to set the example, and now sister is showing me a thing or two. Im the eldest of all my siblings and I should be setting examples! Augh!! Good Grief!! Whats a man suppose to do? Dot has also been hinting that she prefers an engagement ring that’s worth ten grand!! Looking at my money market account, if I withdraw ten grand that leaves me with nothing. You are the weakest link, goodbye. My branch manager now is also putting the pressure on me and my co-worker Mike. We have to set the example to the rest of the crew. Either shape up or ship out! he says. Well, Paul, I say to myself, If you really want to make a difference, why dont you do it? Note to self… Getting too personal on Blogger. Just keep it to yourself and hit the stairmaster in the gym….

Oh, Ching, you got M A I L

Check out this music video for FLAKJAKT “Cascades” - The first one ever shot on an iPhone 4!

I haven’t been to any concerts this summer. Missed a few that I wanted to see… Berlin, Dido, Depeche Mode and of course RadioHead. See these concerts esp. RadioHead when it comes to your town.

I got the email, Glee !   Printed some entries to read already..  The info that you were asking about is on my previous post.  As far as what I want on your blurbs..  You all have total creative freedom.  Write/say whatever you don’t mind the rest of the world knowing about you ! We didn’t have any money, Net, so my engagement ring cost hardly anything..  I cherish it nonetheless.  To me, it’s the thought that counts..  Besides, I wasn’t even expecting an engagement ring at all..  So it was a pleasant surprise. Brian used to work at a video store !   That’s probably one of the reasons that he enjoyed Clerks so much.

Weddings, marriages, engagements, brides maids, grooms men….ACK! I have set perception. I see the topic of wedding everywhere: videos, on TV, men’s confessions of propsosal jitters on the web, people talking about their sisters getting married in online diaries, etc. I’m nervous just being a bridesmaid. So far, I’m the only person who volunteered to help the maid of honor with the bridal shower. My sister had the most difficult time finding fabric for the bridesmaid dresses. She had to deal with so much rudeness at the fabric store, and the other store she went to got robbed. Speaking of engagement rings, my sister’s was a half carat in a platinum ring. My mom estimates a thousand. My engagement ring was cubic zirconium (sp?). No one noticed, not even me. My ex-fiance admitted it to me years after the fact. Vince, I can empathize with your situation. I would be nervous too. Then again, I don’t have any pressure to propose to anyone soon. Last time I suggested marriage to my significant other—she kinda laughed. Anyway, Vince don’t worry. I’m sure she’ll be happy with whatever you give her simply because it’s coming from you and it’s you she loves. Well, that and the fact that she would probably be so excited about your proposal she would overlook the size. It’s not the size of the diamond that matters; it’s the size of the heart of the giver. Ching, I was hoping you would narrow it down for me—otherwise a blurb can easily become a long meandering personal essay. *sigh* oh well. I’ll think of something. I bet you are dying for a photo of me. LOL tough titties…ain’t gonna happen. Regarding OD, happy reading, Ching. Some of it maybe redundant cuz you already know my life story; you can skip those entries if you want. As for the rest of you, if you want my diarist name, just send me an e-mail at gleetv@yahoo.com (those who write why they need to read my drivel will get the quickest response). I heard Berlin and Depeche Mode were gonna be in the Bay Area. Maybe they already played. I cannot keep up with everything. A video store? I thought Clerks took place in a convenience store, at least that’s how I remember it. I’m going to have to rent it again. When I first saw it, I was watching it with the sexiest guy who was not the least interested with me much to my frustration and chagrin.

You’re right..  There was a small reference to the video store..  But for the most part everything happened at the convenience store.  As far as level of achievement, though, they’re all the same to me.  Convenience store, video store..  You can even throw in fast food joints, if you want to. ” It’s not the size of the diamond that matters; it’s the size of the heart of the giver. “  I agree.  I couldn’t have put it any better ! And YOU ARE going to send me a picture to but next to your name ! If anyone is wondering why this post is at four in the freakin’ morning..  I’m having one of those days again..  I woke up, crying, from a really bad dream and now I’m afraid to go back to sleep.
