First Day of class for my Super Senior Year at RIT
Woke up late.
Drove to my Literature: Science Fiction class. A bunch of nerds in it. (including me)
Lunch.
Went to some meetings and tidied things up.
Went to Arts of Expression: Shakespeare on Stage class. The teacher is Colonel Sanders.
Went for a 5 mile run.
Biked back to school, went to the gym, went to my friends place, played Rock Band and some poker, rode my bike home in the dark. Some pretty sweet sights in the dark covered in fog lit by the moonlight.

Sunday Sunday
Cleaned my bike for a while and got it pretty spotless.
Went and saw the new Jim Jarmusch film The Limits of Control at the Dryden. As a minimalist film I feel like it should have a minimalist review. It was very interesting and different as what actually all went down. The music was sick. Beautiful Cinematography and Spanish locations.

FIXED MY BIKE! WOO WOO.
Went grocery shopping, saw a midget. always awesome.
Went and saw the British comedy In The Loop at the Little Theatre tonight. Definitely recommended for anyone who likes political satire. The film takes place right before the invasion of Iraq and it follows various government members of the United Kingdom and the United States as they bumble through their petty problems and a little thing called war. The acting and dialogue is top notch. Every line just tops the last. It's no clean affair either. The Brits in this have some of the foulest mouths I've heard in a long while, and by golly it is delightful.
Then I watched the 2006 film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. It was terrible. Not scary, pretty lame, just dumb, and predictable. So why did I choose to suffer through this film? Four words. Jordana Brewster and Diora Baird. There is a god.

Went to the bike shop to help out a friend who got hit by a car on his bike.
Pretty sweet 5 miler, explored some different places in Mt. Hope Cemetery. Saw a bunch of Civil War era gravestones.
Went to the Dryden and saw a beautiful 35mm print of The Magnificent Seven. It was the first time I have seen the movie and enjoyed it quite a lot and was very thankful I could see it for the first time in that format in a theatre. Seriously the Dryden is legit awesome. It was just a top notch Western in every sense. Great story, great acting, great cinematography, and great camera movement. Steve McQueen and Yul Brynner were such bad asses. And most importantly a great adaptation of Seven Samurai. Can't wait to see The Great Escape at the Dryden coming up this coming Thursday the 10th.

2sDay
another good 5 miler.
Went around to different Bike shops looking at parts for my project bike.
Bought some paint. Got the paint design all figured out, its going to look sick as hell.
Went and saw Land of the Lost at the dollar theatre. Really glad i saw this for a dollar instead of 9.50 when it first came out. It wasn't terrible, it was just muddled down by a lot of flat/boring/not funny scenes. There were parts that were absolutely hysterical like when Will Ferrel was about to french kiss Chaka, and the art design was really cool. And I am glad they kept the Sleestaks practical instead of doing them CG (minus when they open their mouths). But it was just very uneven, like it didn't know what it wanted to be, a stoner comedy, a kids movie, or an adventure film. It tried to be all of these, thus it failed. That's why Step Brothers worked so well, it knew exactly what it was and went for it to the Nth degree, a totally unserious silly film about two child adults. But by the end of Land of the Lost, you have an overwhelming sense of "what the fuck did i just see?", if the filmmakers intended us to feel this way then bravo, they accomplished their mission. Oh yeah, the dinosaurs looked pretty cool, yet still to this day the Dinosaur effects in Jurassic Park hold up better.

Walked my friends dog.
Went on a good 5miler. On the way back got almost hit by a car, skimmed the side as it passed. Was pretty weird.
Watched some of the ridiculous Shaq Vs.
Went on a night bike ride with 3 other gang members. Infiltrated some abandoned complexes, climbed some buildings, cut some fingers, tried to do some jumps, excellent times.
