we're not kidding

two cops are looking suspiciously at the crow bartender, who retorts, "it's a crow bar, there's a murder here every night!". i love this comic. i love the ads around my neighbourhood for CROW MOVING. "cawl me!" and "grab the crow!" are the tag lines. i saved the only magazine from last fall with the article about the crow uprising. two of my favourite bird moments involve crows: one was eating vomit in behind the building, and one, a long time ago, was pecking through a styrofoam container by the AQ pond, which prompted laura dilley to say "you're my hero, crow."

the films stealth and you me and everyone we know are remarkable for having equivalent amounts of hype over the last several weeks in the local press. while the word on stealth is overwhelmingly negative, the reports have been far more intriguing than those on you me and everyone we know, which invariably use the adjectives 'whimsical', 'indie', 'fragile', and 'awkward'. stealth just sounds more worth my while. i'm so curious!

i still like the sundays a lot. anytime that a song from static and silence pops up on my random itunes at work, it makes me happy.

kate bush's the sensual world took a very long time to warm up for me. i've had it for five years now, i think, and i'm still learning about it, figuring it out. some parts i like a lot. in fact, i've liked it more each time i've listened to it. the hounds of love was immediate and obvious. the dreaming is an album like mahogany's dream of a modern day. i rarely listen to it, for fear of disrupting the mystique. it's a bad habit.

HAHAH A MURDER OF CROWS!

i've seen all the "STEALTH" posters, etc, on all of the transit vehicles. from the picture i don't get what it's about. it looks like a spaceship, but it could also be a mechanical vulva...

in any case, it sounds and looks like a B movie (just look at the font).

i think you should not see it at all until it comes out for free.

STEALTH is about a robotic airplane that can fly and talk back(so sassy!) and lo and behold it becomes a liability to the air force. our heroes have to shoot it down or the army will get sued for massive damages.

i wish it was about a mechanical vulva. that would be SO MUCH BETTER.

i think it's a really dumb name. STEALTH.

i think its funny that they want to stop it to prevent from being sued, and not to save lives. it's all about litigation.
