Yo yo yo, check it:
Uno: Easy, you just have to be me. Cool magazine covers though dontcha think?
Dos: You have my word, I will make it to your movie showing! You can't say no one showed up because Severin did and Severin is not "no one." As for the movie showing date/time, it would depend on when we need to have the next movie assignment watched by don't you think? Is there a movie that you want us to watch by next week and if so then I think this weekend would be fine. I could figure out times for the peeps from there. Of course this would all depend on when you get your DVD playa and if you'll even make all of this happen! You know Yoda once said "there is no try, there is only do." Mr. Piekarski don't just try making the movie night, Dooo It.
Dos "beh": I'm already on the well deserved nomination.
Tres (leches): I had nooo idea M.I.A. was to be playing here, in Austin, on campus! Flippin' fantastic! I'm soooo going! If you haven't figured out who you're going with, come with me!?! Jes var nice gypsy.
Cuatro: As for the pelicula, I thought it was pretty fabulous. I'm pretty sure the producer of this film/documentary-ish production did not think Vietnam was happy time and didn't want us to think so because of the emphasis on death and the individual. There was the image overlay in white lettering of the death count number including the date and the letter readings of young men predicting or hoping that they wouldn't die followed by the same white lettering confirming their death. I noticed at some point when the letter reading had briefly stopped, the camera zoomed in on the faces of at least 10 different men all looking either very hopeless or very stern. The close ups along with the reading of these letters, I suppose wanted to personalize and make real to us the death of these boys and in this way convince us that the Vietnam War sucked, especially when (as we discover through the letter readings) most of these soldiers didn't know what/why they were fighting.
Cinco: Yo soy la super guawo y la mejor "numba' one stunna."
