In other news, as I broke out my Thesaurus in order to write that last post, I ran across a great verb: Niggle: To be overattentive to details; to find fault in a petty way. Now is that not an awesome word? I need to use that sometime. Anyway, the reason I mentioned that word is because it is directly below the adjective Niggardly, meaning to be meager, scanty, or stingy. This more than slightly deragatory adjective is found, repeatedly I might add, in the best selling novel Rainbow six, by Tom Clancy. When I first stumbled upon the word, it rocked and heaved and wobbled and tottered around the ethical portion of my brain. "Why would Clancy frequently choose this particular adjective, when it has such a negative tone?" The question danced through my mind as if it were doing the Tootsie Roll with my subconscious. After pondering Clancy's position for several days, I proposed a perilous picture which was promptly perforated by my peer's pointed proposal: Clancy is not racist, but chooses to use such a word purely because it is rarely used. Good point.

Thus concludes tonight's movie marathon showing of Vasity Blues and The Cidar House Rules. Whats the review, you ask? Well, Varsity Blues is......Varsity Blues. It's good for what it is, and not much more. In other words, it is good 'ol fluff. The Cidar House Rules, on the other hand, has more consistency. To put it bluntly, there's more to the plot. At the same time, the majority of the movie disappointed me. Not until the end did my perspective of the movie change. The end effectively (to use a cliche) tied the loose ends. All in all, I'd give it 4 stars out of 5. It is one of those movies that you need to see, although I would not recomend watching it alone as I did. But then, most of you are back at school now and have no time for a Monday Movie Marathon. Oh well: so it goes.

Yesterday I went out and bought the Wayne's World box set....it was only 20 bucks so I couldn't refuse. At any rate, I watched it last night, so "The Merve Mobile" was on my mind. When I stopped in at Engren's today, I saw that exact same car....only in yellow. Can you guess who owned it? Take a wild guess.....you'll never guess. It was Donald Laboone!!!! OH. MY. GOD. I never thought it would be possible for him to get any more creepy, but it has happened. Ladies and Gentlemen, he is now the proud owner of a "Molester Mustache." Wowzas......it was gross/weird/nasty/scary. Serioulsy. Plus, he has ruined the coolness of that kind of car.
