The Greatest Movie of All Time, Some Movie Quotes
============================================

I have decided tonight, that even though I am a HUGE fan of sappy romantic movies, the greatest movie of all time is still the Godfather. From the decline of Vito to the rise of Michael, the movie is simply amazing. Filled with so many quotes, the music is memorable. And the baptism scene. In my books, that is the best sequence in the history of film-making. As Michael is taking the sacred vows to become godfather to his nephew, he (and his henchmen) are carrying out plans of violence, murder, for what? vengeance and greed. And he lies to Kay's face... as the door slowly closes... and the new Don rises up. Amazing... tomorrow I'll watch Part II.

Women and Children can be careless, but not men... Take the cannoli, leave the gun... Go to the mattress...(sadly, I know the last two because of You've Got Mail *sigh*

Another great movie with amazing quotes - Rounders... And the Sports Guy wrote a great article once about Rounders. You don't get a better performance than Mr. Malkovich describing how he'd like to "stick it in you" in a fake Russian accent wearing a red Adidas jacket.

Mosquitoes Part Deux and the Daring Vixen
===================================

So tonight as I was trying to sleep, my mortal enemy bit me on the bottom of my foot AGAIN. ARGH... If only it weren't so damn hot, I'd wear socks to bed. Nothing more unnerving then having a itchy foot...

One of my orientees was talking to me tonight. One of the three that have actually kept in touch. She actually really surprised me with how much she knows about art. Quite cultured actually. At first glance, I just thought she was one of those really attractive, yet vapid blondes on our USC campus. And one of the OA's has taken upon himself to hit on her. Quite funny, actually, to hear both sides of the story. And she wants to be an RA too... anyhoo, its late...
