11:08pm: Seriously! There's a movie on ABC2 called
Jet Storm, which sounds like some sort of shonky 80's war movie title, but is in fact a film from 1959 about a nutcase who brings a bomb onto a plane to kill some guy who killed his kid.
I love how they're looking for the bomb and are just tossing suitcases around, better hope that it's not one of those ones that goes off when you move it.
Another thing that bothers me, there's apparently a downstairs to this plane with windows, but on the outside shots the plane only has one level...so, where's this lower level! You think they'd notice this while the were filming the thing.
In other news, I'm tired...dunno why, I think I got a decent amount of sleep, but then I did get woken up rather than waking up on my own, so it might have been at a bad time in the sleep cycle or whatever.
Tonight after church Mum and I went to see
The Young Victoria, it was fun! Albert was very attractive indeed and Victoria was played well. There was also some historical licence taken, but they always do that.
Four For FridayQ1 - Wikipedia: It appears Wikipedia's positioning as the Internet's encyclopedia may be in need of some editing of its own. Media reports quote a spokesperson for the Wikimedia Foundation, which manages the uber-site, as saying that the English-language version of Wikipedia.org will soon start experimenting with designated editors to check for errors, vandalism and opinions sneaking their way into entries involving public figures still living. Have you ever created or edited a Wikipedia entry?Not created one, but I've edited a few, mostly spelling errors and times when people have put lame comments and whatnot.
Q2 - Hypnosis : Experts estimate over 10 million Americans suffer from disabling chronic pain, and there is considerable scientific evidence that practicing self-hypnosis under the guidance of a certified hypnosis professional can quickly help improve the quality of life for these people. According to Michael Ellner, an internationally prominent self-hypnosis educator and co-author of three books on self-empowerment, the recent spate of bad news about possible adverse effects of popular analgesics and concerns about abuse, overdose, and addiction to controlled pain killers are compelling reasons to consider effective complementary and alternative approaches like self-hypnosis. Have you ever been hypnotized? If not, would you consider hypnosis to treat chronic pain?Hmmm...well I haven't ever gone under hypnosis, but I've gone to those relaxation type things in Yoga, where you lie on the floor and progressive relax every muscle, which is kind of like hypnosis. It works quite well.
Q3 - Death of a Kennedy: Two prominent members of the Kennedy family passed away this month. Which do you feel had a greater impact on society... Edward Moore "Ted" Kennedy (born February 22, 1932 - died August 25, 2009) -- a United States Senator and a member of the Democratic Party; or his sister, Eunice Kennedy Shriver (born July 10, 1921 - died August 11, 2009) -- founder of the Special Olympics and founder of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD)?To be honest I'd never heard of the latter, but having founded the Special Olympics and helping kids is pretty damn important and something to be proud of.
I'm not sure exactly what Ted Kennedy did though, so I'll have to reserve judgement.
Q4 - Era: If you could choose any era other than the one in which you currently live, what era would you live in? (Think ancient Rome, the middle ages, Gupta Empire, Ottoman Empire, industrial revolution, etc.)Well, I'd be really intrigued to go back to the Georgian Era, but the corsets and the lack of hygiene and what not would grow really old after a while. So I guess I'd go to the 60s, because that would be fun, Woodstock, Flower Power...
Saturday 9:The Waiting:1. Have you ever stayed online for a very long time waiting for someone?Nah, not really, I always happen to be something else at the time, LOL!
2. How do you eat oreos?Twist them apart, lick of the cream and eat the two halves. The ads have got to me.
3. Are you cocky?Nah, not really.
4. Did you have an imaginary friend as a kid?Lots! Good times, good times.
5. What t.v. station do you watch the most?
Crime & Investigation Network! I love it!
6. Have you ever seen the ocean?Yeah, I live in Sydney! I see it all the time.
7. Have you ever been hospitalized?When I was a baby I had a twisted stomach and had to have an operation on it.
8. What's your favorite brand of rootbeer?Don't like root beer.
9. Could you live without a computer?Hell no! I'm addicted to it!
LOL and no points to this movie for sending a poor kid in to do their dirty work. That won't scar the kid for life or nothing.
Oh no, they've done it themselves by telling the kid he's gonna get blown up, I see a pyschiatrist in his future.
It did work though, better crazy than dead or something?
So yeah, I'll be heading off to bed now.
Good day to you all!
