Snape's Trial

I'm not sure if this post counts as sharing kick ass fan art or if it is one of those spoon feeding the reader things I really wish somebody would comment on because I am desperate for adult conversation. That's not a fair point. I had some lovely conversations at Stacy's last night--I may have a crush on Kate--she has such smooth legs and she's got intriguing ideas about the life cycle. But in general, like right now--rather than cringe while Zoli makes his own damn pancakes (gods save us please!!) and I muddle my way through the first mug of Java (Pete left about three hours ago--when I was asleep) I could use a grown up instead of somebody who yells victoriously..."HA HA! I HAVE SMITED YOU EGG!!"--

Regardless--On the morning of 7-07-07, starting at 10:40 AM EST, The Leaky Lounge will be hosting ANOTHER trial of my darling Sevvie for the murder of Albus Dumbledore, PUHLEEZE!! It was planned!

I know I am slow.

The film came out last year but we finally watched Running with Scissors last night. Joseph Fiennes is the hunk who played Will in Shakespeare in Love-- notably for this rambling-- Gwyneth Paltrow is also in both films. If a person was on their SECOND cup of coffee they could do a nice Compare&Contrast essay. I however am going to sit here and ponder the fienness that is Joseph (not his brother Rafe--Ralph Fiennes was the actor in Schindler's List and the other sibilant confusion of hunky actors-- the Baldwin boys have a rep here--(don't forget Stephen tho he is a cousin). Oh my- aren't they pretty?...so last night Alec got to be the cocksucker- wait- scratch that-- actually Joseph was the cocksucker. Alec Baldwin played the nasty ex husband of Annette Bening who was married (in real life) to Warren Beatty who had a beer with Les Claypool and Trey Parker thus getting us to Kevin Bacon who surely has been lampooned on South Park at least ONCE--thus I have Joseph Fiennes and Kevin Bacon. Or maybe I should drink some more coffee.

Oh--what did I think of the film? I sat there and watched it. Wasn't bad--I liked the book better-- of course. I enjoyed the credits where they had Augusten Burrough is sitting next to the actor who portrayed him--Joseph Cross. That was cool.

pretty crazy. fun '70s costumes--a good rental, glad I didn't pay theatre prices and I'm glad it is done clogging my netflix cue. I'd give it --oh a 8.5 outta ten. Mostly for Fiennes..

Oh sure NOW the rest of the world is catching up to my favorite obsession. In the Freep this morning there is over two pages of HP stuff. A couple of full page pictorials, costume contests and recapping the series-- blah blah blah...There is little mention of Snape. That's okay he is always in my head. You know me... to paraphrase Jim Butcher--I like my fantasy characters like I take my coffee...dark and bitter!!

That phrase makes me giggle. I have thinking about other grammatically similar phrases...in fact; much like fictional band names (the winner of which is still Pussy Toupee)--I have decided to start collecting "preference similes". For example--I like my men like I like my tea...weak and green. (Okay I don't like weak green men at all, but it is funny!) Or how about..."I like my books like I like my sausage..spicy and linked." Maybe..."I prefer poetry like my vodka-- clear and smooth."
I haven't quite settled on a chocolate simile yet-- something about "dark & rich" or one for fighters--tho "butch and bald" keeps drifting around...what 'choo got?
