On Friday I went and saw 'Kill Bill'. It is a 'rice-bowl western' balancing between seriousness and parody much like some other martial arts films I have seen. There are great fight scenes and stylistic imagery. There is even a story. I liked the movie.
The theater started showing the wrong movie in the beginning. They made up for it when we left by giving out free passes!
I also went out for dinner that night so I didn't see any 'trick or treaters'. Luckily I didn't buy any candy.
I have been reading Steven King's 'Dark Tower' series. I am currently enjoying book three: 'The Wastelands'. Usually I don't buy new copies of King's books because they are so common in used bookstores. However, the first book was revised and I haven't had time to go rooting in Russel Books. All this means is that eventually the library will get some new books.
On Thursday I ordered a copy of Xandros OS. This was the first time I ever ordered something on the Internet. I sent a money order out Friday and should have 'my new toy' by the end of this week. WOOHOO!
