Well, Dad's in the hospital. Depending on who you talk to, he'll be out either Friday (his estimate) or Sunday (the nurse's estimate). Mom leaves tomorrow.
Found out a depressing bit: Renee, the daughter of my mom's late best friend, has announced her engagement and impending nuptials (in June 2002). This depresses me for a very specific reason: Renee is exactly four days older than I (she's 12/15/77, I'm 12/19/77). I am as far as I've ever been from getting married (e.g., I have yet to meet a prospective candidate). As such, I'm a little depressed.
Will someone please make the heat go away?
I just sent a resume to askdrtech.com…we'll see if that pans out. I don't hold out great hope.
The American Film Institute released its list of the "100 most Heart-Pounding Movies of All Time". "Psycho", "Jaws", and "The Exorcist" were 1-2-3, which already makes this list better than last year's comedy list. Going down the rest of it, the only thing I think is really missing (and it was on the nominations list) was David Fincher's "Se7en". All in all, it's fairly well-balanced (if the category was a bit ill-defined), and you can find the entire list at http://www.afionline.org/100thrills/100films.asp
I had more to say, but I'm running out of gas. Today's link of the day is the MemePool-people who read the web so you don't have to. Find it at http://www.memepool.com
