PULL LEAVES OFF TREES THAT APPEAR TO BE FLOURISHING

::movie::FULL METAL JACKET
::music::HEART-SHAPED BOX ~ NIRVANA

Do you know why Stanley Kubrick is the fucking man? FULL METAL JACKET, THE SHINING, 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY, AND CLOCKWORK ORANGE. THATS WHY. I bought FMJ the other day at WAL~MART for 5 bucks. It's fucking genius. I just about shit my pants laughing during the first 10 mins. I have yet to see DR.STRANGELOVE OR: HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB which stars the funniest man [not] alive ~ Peter Sellers.

Now I know there are people out there that thought that EYES WIDE SHUT was shit. But I like to think that it was a parting gift. I envision the reclusive Mr. Kubrick looking dischevled in a London apartment saying to himself, "Stanley, what the world needs now is more T'n'A." And there you have it, a movie with the same patented piano music, but instead of a axe/mallet wielding maniac you have rich dudes that fuck masked prostitutes. Its just too bad there wasn't a return of the Korova Milkbar.

I spent the majority of my break watching movies listening to some tunes and catching the odd episode of McGyver before Star Trek: TNG came on.

I got a wicked haul on xmas:
-WITH THE LIGHTS OUT (NIRVANA BOX-SET)
-SMALLVILLE SEASON 1 + 2
-U2: HOW TO DISMANTLE AN ATOMIC BOMB
-MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE: THREE CHEERS FOR SWEET REVENGE

Oh and I also got world peace, but I returned it for a gift card for the Queen Street Meat Market.

QUIRKY OBSERVATIONS BY JOSHUA COLLINS:
-Afternoon Delight has a sign that reads "enter in rear"
-Afternoon Delight is right next to the Canadian Bible Society
-It is unwise to get drunk and confuse "ice cubes?" with "nice pubes!"

My new classes include:
Intermediate Calculus II
Engineering Finance
Thermodynamics
Materials Science
Fluid Mechanics
Electric Circuits II

Thats right, 6 classes. How do you like them apples.

Only a devoted fan/geek would know the tv schedule of ST:TNG. I commend you Gabrielle.

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: You will give your rifle a girl's name because this is the only pussy you people are going to get. Your days of finger-banging ol' Mary J. Rottencrotch through her pertty pink panties are over. You're married to this piece. This weapon of iron and wood. And you will be faithful.

"I am Gunnery Sergeant Hartman your senior drill instructor, from now on you will speak only when spoken to and the first and last words out of your filthy sewers will be 'Sir' do you maggots understand me?"

I still refuse to call Det. Goran from that Law and Order CI anything but Private Pile.
For five bucks? Fuckin' eh.

AMBER: Finding FMJ for five bucks was kick arse. This is the part where I laugh at you cause there are none left. Muhahaha.

JANELLE: I didn't know that Sellers was in Lolita? I left it out of my list of kubrick films cause I had no interest in seeing it, until now that is. Oh, and a Karate Kid boxset would kick a McGyver boxset anyday, so wax off.

MATT: I've never watched Law and Order CI. I'll check it out.
