Weekend in Bullet form

--Battlestar Gallactica continues to be awesome in just about every way imaginable. No, I am not solely referring to Apollo losing his towel in front of Xena. (Trust me, that sentence makes sense if you watched the ep feiran, darkling1 and I did on Friday)

--Dynasty Warriors 5 has never stopped being a tremendous game. Sun Shang Xiang met her husband on Saturday, and he was all like "Baby, you sooooo fine," and she was all like "Psh, 'nuff with the sugar-talk, poppa, let's get it on when I ain't whoopin' ass!"

--Also, I have gotten better (and worse) at Amplitude. Go figure.

--Aeon Flux the cartoon is easily the most disgusting animated thing I've watched ever. It's the drawn-out figures that are all skin, bone, and saliva, that really gets to me, I think. The needless squishing noises will give me nightmares if I let it.

--Aeon Flux the movie wasn't bad. I sorta just paid attention to the costumes, which were all very awesome to a one. Hairdos, not so much (did a pumpkin vomit onto Frances McDormand's head?), and plot? They didn't need no stinkin' plot. I was happy with what I went to see, namely Euro-trash Clive Owen. Johnny Lee Miller, why? Why the come-over? Can't you go bald, I dunno, gracefully?

--The New York Botanical Gardens had a city-scape built of twigs and leaves and fungi. I was disappointed with the quality of the floral Guggenheim, but the rest was pretty all right. I did not know, until we had pretty much walked the length of the exhibit, that the "Train Show" did not include rides, just lots of trains on tracks. I was already laughed at, so, please, save it and give me a break, okay? My roomie and friend talked about trains you could ride nonstop until we got there; I may be forgiven for assuming that was what waited in store for us.

--FOR THE LOVE OF YOUR MONEY, don't bother with the Holiday Lights at the Bronx Zoo. Perhaps I am biased as, by the time we got there, I was sick to death of children running around screaming and stomping on snow and their parents walking into our picture-taking and not restraining their brats. I had definitely had enough of that in an enclosed place at the conservatory at the Gardens, but I did not know the levels of HELL to which one can sink if they are stuck in half a zoo with all the strollers, parents, and brats you can cram onto the few open paths.

( Let's take a break to rant about this for just a sec, kay? )

--I never managed to meet up with friendofsnarf. She needs to work less.

WOE!

Oh. No. First Brett Ratner, now these?

You know, I had heard people thought that the Beast looked good. And that Angel's wings were realistic.

Don't get me started on Storm's video-game/anime-bishie hairdo, either...
