Long Live Overpriced Junk You Normally Wouldn't Buy
........................................................................................I drop my ring and watch in Jamaica. I wear Cancun. I drink in London, Chicago, or Washington DC. I hang Cyprus on the wall. I open the mail with Vegas. I put Niagara Falls in my pocket. I drink in Menda, Manhattan, or San Antonio. I get a G' Day from Sydney. I burn incense in Thailand. I slip into New Orleans. I fan myself with Japan. I drink in Toronto, San Diego, or Cleveland. I put salt and pepper in Vegas. I wear Chile around my neck. I put Armenia in my purse. I slip my feet into New Zealand. I drink in Detroit, Long Beach, Raleigh, or... at 11:09 PM by negar Wednesday, May 09, 2007
Tempting - on a multitude of levels

"Are you not entertained?"
........................................................................................- I re-watched Gladiator twice this weekend, thanks to TBS. I had forgotten how great that movie and more importantly how hot Russell Crowe is. I say there needs to be more Russell-Crowe-in-armor movies. And I second myself. - I also finished reading the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time this weekend. It was Linda's recommendation but when I looked it up on Amazon.com I immediately recognized the red cover with the upside-down black dog on the front and remembered that I had meant to read the book when it was still on the bestseller shelves. Anyways, it's a fast and easy read. I really liked the simplicity of the narrative. Nothing flashy or pretentious. I do have two problems with this book though. The first is a credibility issue, which is addressed here. The second one, which is not addressed anywhere, is that I'm not a fan of long names for books. Of course this was way better than We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will be Killed With Our Families: Stories from Rwanda, a book that I can never tell people I read because they stop listening half-way through. - And here I present to you the map of online communities, stolen from a webcomic I came across today. Not only the map is brilliant (see compass-rose-shaped island), everything else I've seen on xkcd so far has been pretty witty. Nothing beats geeky humor.
