"I Remember......

How The Darkness Doubled" Heres a tricky one. I know Elmis would of had it...but he's not here.

Anyways. Right now I'm taking advantage of my power because tonight/early tommorow morning we got ourselfes a hurricane comming. And the Radio told us that more then likley will be pretty bad and take out our power and cancell school for a bit. Right now I honestly would rather go to school, Grade 12 is a BLAST! And I pretty have all the main credits I need so it's basically a year of messing around with friends, how much better can it get.

Something I relized the other day was that I have never gotten around to watching these two movies "The Shawshank Redemption" and "Chasing Amy". I decided to take a chance and just buy them before watching them because one has awesome ratings and involves a Prison break and the other was directed by Kevin Smith. I watched them both and enjoyed them both a lot. Heres just a list of my fav Kevin Smith films in order: Just the view askew ones

Clerks

Clerks II

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

Chasing Amy

Dogma

Mallrats

I liked them all a lot though, had a tough decision on Dogma or Mallrats.

Another thing which may surprise you guys is today for the first time I listent to an Oasis album "(What's The Story) Morning Glory?" I actually enjoyed it a fair bit. I am told that their first album is good aswell so I'll look for it tommorow. I read in many reviews that these guys were just dumb beatles wannabes, I can see that a little....well just how they are trying to be like them a bit but I wouldn't call them dumb.

Also do you like Echo and The Bunnymen? If so check out the album Nowhere by Ride

One last thing, ever see the movie "The Promotion"? If not, don't it was terrible, one of 2008's worst!!!!!!!

Thats it, See Ya's

"It's A Terror Of Knowing What This World Is About.......

..watch as good friends scream LET ME OUT." Pretty easy song, most of you should know the original. Heres a hint: MCR and The Used did a cover of it a couple of years ago.

Song of the day:

Some people really crack me up. A few nights ago I was doing a late shift at work and usually if the managers cool, I usually throw in a cd to listen to, just to make the time go by faster. I had the new Coldplay album in (Yes I enjoy the music of Coldplay) and I had a customer come in and say "What U2 Song Is This, Never heard it Before and I'm a Huge Fan Of Them." I can see how some people could think this, but not a "HUGE" fan of them. I just laughed and told him that it was Coldplay.

Memento

I saw this movie a while back when it first came out and remember it being very confusing and not very good. I was very young though and couldn't tell a good movie from a bad movie. I watched it a couple nights ago and was amazed. Has anyone else seen it? If so did you see that ending coming at you? This is by far my favorite film by Christopher Nolan. Yes this film surpasses Batman Begins and The Dark Knight IMO. Only thing I had against it was the layout of the menu on the dvd's, I found them quite confusing and took me about 4 minutes to find out how to play it :lol:

Last thing I have to say today is: I have come across an awesome album that I don't think anyone here has heard of...

Do You Like Rock Music? by British Sea Power.

The best pop/rock album I've heard in a while. Just give a few tracks a listen.
