Have you ever noticed that if you talk to your cat, his or her tail moves? Try it sometime. Do stuff quietly around your cat, while it is awake, but watching you, and notice the tail. Then, start talking to your cat- and watch the tail. Pretty interesting, eh? Doesn't matter what you say to the cat, the tail will move. I wonder why? I thought this was a Gurney and Pixel thing, but Rolly does it too.

2)I have found the perfect little pocket-sized apartment with a backyard and laundry and a garage and it is a block (NO KIDDING ONE BLOCK) from work. The want is killing me. Send good ApartmentGettingVibes if you have some to spare. I REALLY WANT THIS PLACE!!!

3)...

Um. Yeah, I have no number three.

Instead, picture of yummy I would also WANT if Jethro Gibbs weren't fictional...

Mmmm...
*sigh*

Neil Patrick Harris is a good singer. And Nathan Fillion is an incredible ham. I'll admit that I am not terribly fond of musicals, but for a short-form thing, this isn't bad. Go watch it.

I was, frankly, a bit weary of the whole Batman franchise, and judging from the half-full theater, so were a lot of people. The trailers for the movie were simply inadequate, but it was easily the best Batman superhero movie ever. Epic. Dark. Complex.

Heath Ledger was sadly, tragically perfect as the Joker. Clearly Oscar-worthy, even if you don't take into account his death... better than Nicholson. 

Christian Bale did a great job playing both of his major characters, Batman and Bruce Wayne.  Finally, we have a Batman bringing some serious duality to the role!

The directing and screenplay was strong, put together by the minds behind "Momento". Frankly, The Dark Knight's screenplay is superior... just as complex and innovative as that film, while resting on far more solid ground.

The cinematography and action sequences were awe-inspiring at times.  They used IMAX cameras to film several major scenes... and it shows, with images that look as good as a Frank Miller spash page.

Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman were both as good as they could be, considering their roles, which were strengthened because both of them were given moral dillemas... as was Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent / Twoface, Gary Oldman as Police Commissioner Gordon... in fact, if there is one main theme in this movie, it is the moral challenge of being a good guy when faced with impossible moral dilemmas... all brought to us by the ultimate ringmaster of nihilistic chaos, the Joker.

All in all, it was as good as it gets. But can they possibly do it again?!  I'd like to see them try. 

Maybe I wasn't quite as weary of the Batman franchise as I thought.

 Hunter is in the shower now after a half hour swim in the pool.  Justa lazy Saturday!  I took a nap this afternoon for an hour.  For some reason I thought I'd have Hunter tomorrow until noon but Vin just told me they are going to Santa Monica pier for something.... so I'm taking Hunter back at 8:30am.

 SO I guess after that I'll be heading out to the boat because Brian told me to head out there early anyway.  Maybe I'll get there around 10am.  I don't know what we'll be doing but even if we just sit and watch movies on the boat and cuddle then it is all good :)
