About that video...

I have a hard time giving Letterman's writers the benefit of the doubt - ie., that they were actually making an insightful comment - but #1 on the list is really interesting. Because BSG seasons 1 and 2 (have yet to see season 3) had some pretty blatant, damming comments on the Iraq war...but at the end of season 2, when the people demanded and were granted an exit from the Cylon war, everyone got totally screwed! So there's some pretty intriguing stuff going on in what was probably just a flippant, overused anti-Bush joke. Think about it.

We're behind a season - gotta find the change to rent those dvds! Is Razor worth a look?

And apparently I'm behind in my commenting. :)

1. (april 1) I'm surprised Fantasia is not on this list. I can't wait to show Nevin this movie - he already loves watching music performers and listening to all kinds of music. Music and animation? Perfect combination for Nevin loving.

I also LOVE Beauty and the Beast and I just can't make myself care that the Runnalls men are down on its themes. Love does change people. So pthbbbt.

Aw - slamming seven brides? I have fond memories of watching this on a sick day with chicken noodle soup - I think that's what this kind of movie is good for. But I'd rather watch Beauty and the Beast. :)

Logan introduced me to Fiddler on the roof. Wow. Wonderful.

2. (Simon's cat) Just made time to watch this tonight (so much TV to catch up on!) - oh cats. You're so much cuter animated. lol.
