Arts Corner with Ralphieboy

Here's an esthetically pleasing view of the Greenbriar Hotel phone block (White Sulphur Springs, WV).

Let the Countdown Begin ...

Trailer #5

Oh, and I've also created an avatar on the Simpsons Movie website:

Needless to say, I've been mesmerized by this woman who takes the same bus as me downtown, has purple hair yet doesn't seem otherwise like your typical "alt.chick." Plus, it picks up a campaign nickname I've earned and puts it into the form of a cartoon character with an overbite that'd be proud to be seen around Springfield.

Eurocentric Paternalism At Its Finest

Get yer Dana Plato on in under 5 minutes. Or, in the case of Ralphie ... get yer Charlotte Rae on.

Not sure what I think of the Honda "Minisodes." On the one hand, it spares me from the torture of all 23 minutes of Mr. Drummond's banalities. But on the other hand, I do miss the many nuances that Dana Plato adds to the show.

Proposal: The Cross-Country Uber Invasion

Perhaps this should be seriously looked into. Uber's location has much to offer, such as the Texicalli Grill, Waterloo Records and impromptu Hole-In-The-Wall meetings of the Fifth International Tendency / slash / National Antisocialist Polish Copier Technician's Movement / slash / Storm Door Company.

The Meme That Simply Will Not Die

» 'Killer of Sheep': Its Time Has Come, So Flock to It (Ann Hornaday)

As a portrait of displacement and impending doom, "Killer of Sheep" possesses a mournful, almost elegiac power, casting a wistful glance back to a disappearing way of life even as it looks forward with wary apprehension. But take another look, and "Killer of Sheep" brims with humor and compassion and hope as Burnett pays homage to making do with what's at hand.

You might even want to think about seeing it more than once.

With a title and review like that, how could you not?!?!?
