When I have the time (which recently is not much at all), stopping by Flickr is one of the things I like to do and I've just come across an amazing contributor, Stuck in Customs, whose photos are to die for. Like, his HDR pictures are only totally unreal. Period. I came across the guy when I was looking around for shots of Rome's Colosseum, which is a definite Place I Must Visit Before I Die. And it's been voted one of the new 7 wonders of the world, so I've read. All those Gladiator-weepy moments are flashing through my mind right now.
Last week in GP we watched the film No Man's Land, which is a Really Depressing film. It won the Oscar for Best Foreign Film in 2001. Oh, and on a completely separate note, it gives a really rotten impression of the UN. But watch it because of the dark humour (for the most part of the film), and because of the excellent plot which lays out quickly. And the last scene is just plain scary. It's one that stays in your mind for a long time and makes you hope it's just an exaggeration. It's not like, some ghostly flick, but it does give some serious goosebumps.
And here's a quote of the day! Amanda (from Ugly Betty, on seeing a made-up Christina and a...made-up Betty): Oh, look. Carrie Bradshaw and a sack of potatoes.
