Post Easter Meditations
Saw a sign last week for "Easter At the Mall"... you came into the mall on Easter and you got a generic service at 10:45, an Easter Egg Hunt at 11:15 and a free slurpy with every Auntie Anne's pretzel(I made up the last part). It's just another sign of the Apocalypse... the resurrection of Christ, Our Lord, turned into a one-stop shopping event at the mall. What's next, the Sale of the Ascension at Abercrombie Fitch?
Watched the "The 40 Year Old Virgin" and "Seabiscuit". "Virgin" was hilarious. Ruder and cruder than "Wedding Crashers" it actually had an ending that offered some socially redeeming value and a very funny rendition of "Aquarius". "Seabiscuit" was the story of triumph over tragedy and the resilience of the human (and animal) spirit. A very good, heartwarming movie...
if you can get over Toby Maguire's Howdy Doody hairdo.
Finished Lunar Park by Bret Easton Ellis. Not quite sure if I liked it or not. The only other Ellis book I've read was American Psycho and while it was a smart, satirical look at the eighties, it was also incredibly gross and disturbing. And guess what? There are many references to that book in this one. So, I guess I would just give it an "okay".
My TV recommendation? "House". I love this show. The lead character on this show is wickedly funny and I just adore his no-nonsense bedside manner. And I can't write anymore glowing reviews about it because I have to get my lunch packed and shower taken so I can sit and watch the show in peace.

Be excellent to each other. (I know, I stole it from Bill and Ted, but it is good advice)
