I just got done watching the movie: Lord of War (2005)
I think it was a good film, in the vane of “blow” and “traffic” but with a different angle and a semi-moral overtone.

I just got done reading : The Brutal Christ of the Armageddonites – by Jon Basil Utley
It’s a great overview of / perspective on the Christian “pro-end-of-the-world” movement which has begun (in this country) to not only become fairly popular, but to be largely represented in the government and the financial elite.

The Would You Have Been a Nazi Test
Achtung! You are 23% brainwashworthy, 18% antitolerant, and 28% blindly patriotic
Congratulations! You are not susceptible to brainwashing, your values and cares extend beyond the borders of your own country, and your Blind Patriotism does not reach unhealthy levels. If you had been German in the 30s, you would’ve left the country. One bad scenario — as I hypothetically project you back in time — is that you just wouldn’t have cared one way or the other about Nazism.
Yes, once again, Alan is in posession of a mohawk… life is good – life is good.
A mohawk is a wonderful thing for several reasons. Some of them are:
I have hair on the top of my head still, might as well enjoy it. It improves my ultimate frisbee game (seriously). It reminds me and anyone else that I’m not really all the way old, yet. It helps instantly filter people, like John’s pants, for any who know.
