Your name wouldnt be Dick would it?
So I am a dick again, a dick to my family and to others. Why do you say? I’ll fill ya in. Its simply because someone invited themselves to the family x-mas eve party and I simply reacted in a normal fashion, which was ‘you are not related to us why would you be coming?’. Apparently this was worse than anything Hitler ever did because people freaked big time, I mean they aren’t fucking related to us and it would be uncomfortable so I said what everyone was thinking. So now that I am the designated asshole this year, I guess the gloves are off.
O.A.N. - No Country For Old Men is an amazing flick with an odd ending that caught me and seemingly the whole audience off guard, however it really made me think and I cant say that has happened in awhile, not that anyone gives a flying fuck. It was faithful to the book and that is always a good thing as the source material should always be celebrated. It reminded me of Blood Simple, a movie a lot of Coen Bros fans haven’t seen, its dark and violent and is ages away from the next movie they made, Raising Arizona. And no matter how violent or disturbing this movie was, it was still quite funny at times and thats a hard thing to do with there is evil incarnate on screen for a large portion of the movie. And good news to all their fans, they are making a flurry of movies in the next few years.
Observation: Is it just me or is Josh Brolin the new bad ass in town having nearly stole the screen away from Denzel and Russell in AG and now having the lead role in one of the best films this decade? Hopefully his B Movie days are now behind him.
X-Mas is creeping closer and closer and I haven’t purchased so much as a wreath, not even for my nieces, I feel like a bad uncle and perhaps thats because I am as I could have gone to a bball game of theirs today but I used the snow as an excuse not to go. Don’t mind driving in snow its just the other people, I see people doing many a stupid thing on dry and warm days so when snow is around I tend to stay home and make a big batch of chili. It was only average tasting but on a day like this it just seems like the thing to do and a little fire in the belly and ass will make the cold seem like a mirage that only exists outside my window.
Not sure I will ever get used to being broke, it sucks…it truly truly sucks. So many things I want and or need and yet I’ve had to pretty much repress my urges of commercialism.
