every day is like survival

Been sleeping on the new bed for a few days, right, but the past two nights I've woken up in the morning with a crick on my neck. I slept on the other side last night and now it's the other side of my neck. Ack. I slept in a little longer this morning, explaining what was up to my boss, and took a relaxer to help too. I dunno. It could be worse, I guess. I'll swap pillows tonight.

We watched Catch-22 last night, which is amazing for several reasons, not the least of which is its impeccable casting. With the exception of Doc Daneeka, who's a lot slimier in the book, but a lot less visible in the movie, so I guess it works out ok. The farcical elements jumped right out at me. I mean, I saw it in college after reading the book, but seven readings and years later makes a bit of a difference.

Sigur Ros tomorrow. I hope I can get enough sleep so I don't pass out during.

how to cut taxes

[15:11] velvet: dude why do we have multi-million dollar action movies when we could just film parts of our trillion-dollar wars and show them in theatres?
[15:12] velvet: then the entertainment industry would invest heavily in the military-industrial complex
[15:12] velvet: and then whenever a war ended, hollywood would have to create another one
[15:12] herbaliser: WAG THE DOG
[15:12] velvet: yes, i know, but this is different
[15:13] velvet: WE WOULD BECOME A HOLLYWOOD-1984
