i have a kick ass jedi knight outfit. my mom came in to town to give her 29 yr old son a homemade jedi cloak (black, thick, and long) and one of those brown kimono thingys they wear under the cowl. it looks so freakin' real; i feel like a padawan! whoot! i drank beers while wearing it so i would feel special.
i was just watching kenneth b.'s hamlet and it was on the final sword fight and like five or ten minutes go by, there's close ups of a sweaty, hirsute robin williams, and the dying queen and i'm sitting there thinking "what the fuck is going on?" shakespeare was juggling alot shit around in his plays, holmes, and sometimes my lil' monkey brain gets all jumbled up. slow down shakespeare!!! (that's my new fav thing to say)
well, until i can find a good fiction book, i'm reading serge braemby's bio on leonardo da vinci. very interesting. he wrote backwards from right to left, was a vegetarian and a homosexual, and has only 5 pieces of art in existence that are soley by his hand. these are things i did not know. thanks, serge.
i haven't seen who/if anyone has won the cali. recall, but if arnie gets it we're fucked. if some meathead republican pervert actor with no political experience can lead one of our country's leading states, we're fucked as a whole. we've got a monkey in the white house and an austrian bodybuilder in charge of our biggest state. sheesh. i like what bill maher said the other day, "the rest of america feels about california, like the rest of the word feels about america"

Ohmigod! the Kenneth B version is sooooo my favorite. He plays it with so many layers. Reading it, you get the feel that Hamlet was psycho...but with Kenneth, you get the feel that Hamlet knows EXACTLY what he's doing. Plus the Billy Crystal cameo is pretty cool. I've written many a paper on the whole movie vs. play dealy. I heart Hamlet. I heart Shakespeare.
