The screendoor slams . . .

Song still in my head:
"Thunder Road" by Bruce Springsteen

Had another crazy dream this morning. This time I was at a monorail at TCU in front of the Main. There were two gates: one for students and one for non-students. The one for non-students was on the fritz, so I walked.

NME reports that Jonny Greenwood AND Jarvis Cocker will be in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Shall be an enjoyable cameo.

I saw this woman be interviewed this morning on the Today Show. She was fired from her job as a flight attendant because she posted "suggestive" pictures of her on the job on her blog. Here is a story on it and here is her blog. If anyone cares (or much to others' dismay), you won't be seeing any sort pictures like these of me on here.

Why is it when I read this article I thought there was a lot more to it than what was reported? Why do I do this with EVERY article I read now?

One With the Force

For as long as I have been alive, Star Wars has been in my life. I was only a year old when The Empire Strikes Back came out, a time when apparently a lot of people were angry about the twist that revealed Luke Skywalker’s parentage. I was not aware of this until I was in college, and frankly, does it really matter about the twist or the context of the day for fans? I think it does, as history has a way of repeating itself. These eleven films (along with a couple of animated shows, a holiday special, and a couple of live action shows) continue to mean something, even when they come out to mixed reviews. The Star Wars saga itself is bigger than those reactions, and I’m happy to see the saga transcend generations. I’m only a few days removed from seeing The Rise of Skywalker for the first time. I thought it was a fantastic film in the Skywalker saga. And since I’m not a filmmaker or a producer, I’m not one to make a bold claim about how I would have done it better. Because Star...
