Best site of the year (by far): hulu.com.  Not only because you can access all 34 episodes of:

It also has over 50 full length movies, hundreds of tv episodes (including full series) and to top things off it even has last nights Colbert Report. No need for cable anymore.

creative, lyrically driven, political, rebellious spouting… Find him here.

This past week (pre-christmas) has been a movie and musick week for some odd reason. I don’t normally see three movies in one week or buy 3 cd’s in one week. I blame Christmas gift cards. They make you purchase things you have been wanting with no guilt. So here is the rundown:

	inspiring, musical, community, passion, artistic, mountains, oceans, streams…. Iceland!
	soundtrack & movie, musical, studio, love, guitar, piano… Dublin!
	indie rock, Sub Pop Records, melodic, rock… Seattle!
	instrumental, ambient rock, trash, explosions in the sky… San Marcos!
	musically gifted, connectedness, love, guitar, cello… NYC!

A masterful piece of film, which integrates documentary style cinematography with raw unadulterated musical passion. It was like watching an hour and a half music video, but with none of the scantily clad women or reference to bling-blang.

My brother told me about the soundtrack to this movie yesterday (although I don’t think he has seen the movie yet) and after buying the soundtrack via a iTunes gift card (Thank you Hudiburg Family), I convinced a few friends (they are girls… its a romantic movie… hence and easy sell) to rent the movie and we watched it last night.

Brilliant. Cool. Irish. Gypsy. Love. Life. Mess. Passion.

Just a few words that come to mind if I were doing a free association exercise. I recommend this flick if you enjoy these three things: independent music, documentaries, Irish people cussing. If you don’t like any one of these, I would recommend you get a life and stop watching smutty, overproduced broadcast television. Cool.

so it seems that school is wrenching my wrist, in turn affecting my ability to focus on the pain inflicted by spam-ers. So my plan of attack it to get my page up and running again within the week (whether this will happen is highly suspect)…

I hope this brief period of absence will allow you to focus on more important things like food, water, and family… more likely though you will fill lost time spent on my site elsewhere in the netherworlds of the world wide web. If that is the case document your adventures, let me know if you stumble upon something noteworthy or of some significance.

In other news, I watched V for Vendetta. Excellent. I left the theatre entertained, but also highly introspective (what did that movie mean to me?). Also I wondered if those leaving the theatre caught some of the undertones of political, spiritual and human hypocrisy. I couldn’t imagine missing these themes, although I am a deep thinker, I wonder (at times) if anyone else is.

More thoughts to ponder on this movie, definitely a must see, I will probably own it some day, as I own a total of 10 movies this is a high remark (truth be told, 5 of those movies are surf movies) not that I don’t enjoy movies, on the contrary, I do! Most just aren’t worth buying, few (in my opinion) are worth seeing more than once.
