Bonfire of the Vanities
Since the last open thread turned out to be so popular, and so informative, I thought I would turn the tables a bit. Whereas last time I asked y’all’s opinions about someone else, this time I’m asking y’all’s opinions regarding yourselves. No, nothing bad…really. But everyone has something, a feature or a habit, of which they are most proud satisfied happy. Ok, vain. Vanity can be a good thing when it boosts your morale, right? RIGHT?? So, get your Carly Simon on, grab a mirror, and get to commenting!
By the way, no bodice-rippers were harmed during the making of this post 
The Guns of Navarone
All the odds were against them. They were betrayed. Their supplies and armaments destroyed. The element of surprise had disappeared. And yet, these brave men risked their lives to save a nation. Success was measured only by destroying the Guns of Navarone…they succeeded.
The Guns of Navarone is one of my favorite WWII movies. While a bit less known than The Great Escape or Patton it is every bit as good a movie.
I’m not a big fan of Gregory Peck. No matter what he’s in, he always comes off as a total prick. That works to his advantage in this film though. If you’ve not seen it, I highly recommend it.
Update: WAMK has a caption contest up!
Weekend Tribute
Well, I have a ton of shit to do this weekend, along with having guests in town and having more scrapbooking classes. However, I do have time to post a quick (ok, not so quick) video for y’all. I think this may be the official H&B song. What say you?

Best Revenge Movies
I don’t really remember why but I got to thinking about revenge movies.
Payback also holds a top spot for movies which have no good guys.
This is one of the coolest films I’ve seen in years. The backward chronology has the effect of making the viewer feel the same sort of confusion as the main character.
What’s your favorite revenge movie ?
Update: I promise, I really don’t wait until Aggie posts something good before I do one of my crappy posts. At worst, I’m just guilty of not reading my own blog.
Happy Momma’s Day!
Just a quick post in appreciation of all the moms and mother figures out there. In truth, there is no better cup of coffee, than one served to me in bed!
Enjoy!
My Name is Bruce
A post over at Nicole’s got me thinking about this little gem:
And, yes, it is part of my movie collection.
Also, thanks to Nicole, May is Zombie Awareness Month.
Ok, I’m done stealing shit from Nicole’s site.

Review over at Big Hollywood.
Spam, Glorious Spam!
Inspired by Nicole, I decided to peruse Askimet’s net, otherwise known as Spam Hell, and see what goodies I could find. It was eye-opening, to say the least. The very least:
Today I was specially registered at a forum to participate in discussion of this question.
That was in response to Booze of the Week. Maybe the commenter thought this was an AA forum.
Great tips to follow. Being professional and showing them there’s more to come I think are the most important. You need to give them a great article, that makes them want to come back. And then make sure you don’t disappoint.
That one was in response to Testosterone Goodness. This is puzzling seeing as it was a video post of an upcoming movie. Hardly any content whatsoever….just serious eye-candy. Finally, we get this one:
Our funds are in dire need of a examination and you’ve helped.
That was on the Goliad Massacre, making that comment the most bizarre by far. I wish I got some good ones about being wonderful like Nicole does, but all that shows up is mostly escort services and pr0n, mostly in Russian. Hope you enjoyed the Spaminocity 
Resident Evil: Afterlife
Sorta stolen from Nicole.
