mnrgh.

Back after a lovely time in Phoenix.

Ate well, drank reasonably.
Drove very well, shot moderately well.
300 wasn't remotely close to living up to the hype.

Lots of fun, obviously.

And now... "Hooray, jetlag."

If I missed any big news since Wednesday, please let me know. I don't think I'll be up to chewing through several hundred missed items.

Minus Three Hundred

Worst CGI wolf this side of Van Helsing.
Worst CGI blood effects, possibly ever.
All the subtlety and nuance of being sodomized with a tent peg.

See 300 if:
- you're into manflesh
- you don't know dick about history

It is, not to put too fine a point on it, poorly-done sword porn.

I'm looking forward to reading the graphic novel in hopes of enjoying it. I've liked everything else of Miller's that I've read so far.

Yeah... something like that.

Fuck Rove. Fuck Chris Matthews. And Fuck anyone who thinks the media has a "Liberal Bias."
