Too busy
Been extremely tied up. Really quiet at Quintus's lately. I didn't have any time to post.

I'm so sorry, but I hope you can understand that other work does take priority

'Elizabethtown': cool
Fucker and I saw a screening of Elizabethtown yesterday. Lesb told me the movie was fabulous so my expectations where high, and I found it a decent movie.

In short: During his trip back to Kentucky for his father's memorial, a dejected young man (Bloom) finds inspiration in the form of a flight attendant (Dunst).

The direction was just amusing and the dialog of 'Elizabethtown' is ok as well.
It's worth the price of an admission ticket and a medium popcorn.

"Lost": The Spoiled Bastard.
Just read this article at the eFluxMedia website. The frantic forward action of "Lost" this season took a nice, even welcome detour to get emotional. The story of Jin and Sun was, in many ways, a very nice send off for the both of them.

Interesting read
CNNMoney.com has an interesting article. At Bottomless Closet, a New York non-profit that helps women move from welfare to jobs, Kendall Farrell said she may cut back on workshops and look elsewhere for funds as Wall Street money dries up.

Busy, busy, busy...
It has been really quiet around here lately: I have been in fact too occupied all day.
