you look good as a gay caballero

nothing "led you" to being a knacker. It's an Irish term for the Travellers, or Pavees.

Thanks for your comments. I appreciate the Third Way perspective, and try to see the situation in similar terms as much as possible. My post comes from a place where all that seems futile, but I don't live in that place all the time....

Nice post! The video definitely gives me mixed feelings (especially the image of the tranny getting jumped at the end). It's hopeful and touching but still kind of pathetic and sad. I can't help thinking somebody in Hollywood is going to exploit this--it's like a John Waters re-visioning of "The Longest Yard" or something.

i'm so glad you're back!! my mum's from Trinidad, and i love it there. too bad the folks wanted me to be Canadian.. thank you so much for your kind words, they are very very helpful... funny how strangers can be better friends than friends at times.

im glad you're baccck.
im also glad you have a reminder of me on your wall!

im not in boston yet, i leave the 30th so in the mean time it's packing, making calls, emails...it's never ending really.

are you planning on leaving the site for good, or just until the election/

Welcome back

..as filled with delicate hues of blue and white.. crashing amongst the coral and atop the beige sand.. hidden within a cove surrounded by lush bountiful mountains.. in the bright humid climate, of my mother's maiden land..

don't go

I'd rather be high than hidin.

Film:

Finally watched Don't Need You. Sad to say I think this was made on a budget of $10. It wasn't as expansive as I'd hoped-it seemed as soon as you were getting to the "meat" of the story's purpose, holy shit it ended. Oh well, the nostalgia was nice.

You're Gonna Miss Me was amazing. I even recommended it to my shrink. I think about it every day.

I don't think I saw anything else "current"...the last River Phoenix, The Thing Called Love was very, very cute.

Finally watched Amelie (I've owned it forever) and fell in love. I am Amelie, btw.

The Machinist was GREAT. I was really surprised and totally like, jarred by how hot Jennifer Jason Leigh is. Wow.

I have to cancel my Flix tonight due to questionable finances, I think. Oh well. I have Dirty Pretty Things & Match Point on deck right now.

aww, hun.
ya know, i may be passing through your territory in a couple months...

hey
i was super impressed with your peter lafarge reference a week ago or something.
that ruled.

but the best ballad of ira hayes isn't lafarge or cash, it's dylan.

sucks balls yay for buckets of ice water for my feet

Haha! Oh, that comparison got me rolling. Thank you, sir =)
