Why is school so much bloomin' work?
Movie quotes were as follows:
1. Lethal Weapon 2
2. Silence of the Lambs
3. The Princess Bride
4. Kung-Pow
5. Desperado
More to come soon.

in the altruism that someone claims to purport. Again, that's just me and I am a sad little man. As for the actors and such, I don't quite follow how treating Elia Kazan with contempt at the Oscars for his past behavior is quite symetrical with my theory. I think all it shows is that they have opinions and thoughts. I remember seeing clips from that ceremony and distinctly recall seeing Ed Harris sitting scowling and Warren Beatty standing and applauding. Hey, they all have their own beliefs and more power to them. I just don't see it as a craft in the same sense that a painter or a poet has one. Maybe if they also wrote the screenplays or something...but they work in a media that does not serve a purpose unless exposed to the public. Someone who creates does not need the vox populi, they can survive, even thrive, in a more isolated environment. I believe that they achieve a certain modicum of success in spite of themselves, whereas actor cannot do the same thing. They need the approval of us hoi-poloi as we need to see them on the screen. All this being said, none of it was meant to be an attack on you, simply a discourse. For that I thank you, at least a few people had read the whole thing.
The firearm in question is an H&K USP 9mm. I couldn't find a picture of one in .40S&W, which I own. Regarding the 2nd Ammd, I try to stay away from that. I live in NY where you have a better chance of being eaten by a llama than getting a handgun permit. But I guess I feel that if you can legally jump through all the hoops and pass the required safety courses and the background check, blah, blah, blah, then you should be able to. There is too much abuse of they system, the people who go about it the proper way are penalized by the lesser of us who don't. That diminishes us all. Besides, there is too much angry rhetoric on both sides, and I am fiercly apolitical and all this stuff just makes my head hurt.
