Infinite Undiscovery and a new monitor for my PC (well, it came in the mail).  Wide screen PC hurts my eyes a bit.  Everything is way too wide, but I needed an upgrade after the same monitor for 6 years.

She was my instructor for the first day of class last week. :(

The class was too big so it got split in half. My instructor is this white chick that learned japanese. Forgot her name. Asako vouches for her though and she seems okay so far.

I never bought the DVD of Transformers. I figured HD-DVD would eventually fail, and a Blu-ray would get released.

I did the same thing with Knocked Up, good thing it's coming out in a couple weeks.

Just spent the last 4 1/2 hours with Crispin Glover. The video store I work at managed to drag him into Memphis to show his film "What Is It" and, uh, he's every bit as paranoid and eccentric as one would expect.

Before the movie started the lights dimmed and there was a single red circle lighting the screen. That's when Glover got onto stage and proceeded to tell us he was going to read 8 of his books to us tonight. He wasn't kidding. Everyone there expected him to just jump onstage and introduce the film. No, instead for the next 2 hours he read EIGHT WHOLE BOOKS, and maybe two of them were actually coherent stories.

The most awkward part of the evening was during the reading of the second book where he stopped and got onto someone about a blinking light that he saw. He continued on and everyone thought it was a joke. During the reading of the 7th book he stopped again and because he thought he saw a flashing light (keep in mind he was the only one who saw it). He then got really paranoid, had the theatre turn on the house lights, and started pulling people down row by row and had them searched and their cell phones checked. 20 minutes later he continued reading again.

Then the flick began and, uh, yeah, if you haven't seen it it makes Lynch's films seem as easy to follow as a children's book. Then he had a Q&A where he kept rambling and going off subject and then a signing where I picked the below book up and asked him about his dance in Friday the 13th Part 4:

This has nothing to do with Willard.

(http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c296/SamSawyr/Happy%20Fun/crispin3.gif)
Note the publishing date. All his books are written as if they were done in the late 1800's. This is a book from the perspective of someone in the 1890's writing a book on the art of rat catching for the use in schools.

Here's a couple of passages:

All of his books look like this.

I always assumed his craziness was just an act but he really is nuts. Here is a clip from the movie we watched which he directed:

Nobody asked about Epic Movie. I guess nobody bothered since he pretty much said the only reason he did a film like Charlie's Angels was to get the money to fund "What Is It" and the sequel "It Is Fine! Everything is Fine" so it was assumed that was the same for Epic Movie. The Q&A was almost grueling since he will attempt to answer one question and then trail off into something completely different for about 10 min.
