Well after “acquiring” 209 Star Wars novels.  I finished the first one today.  The first one being Darth Bane: Path of Destruction.  Based roughly 1000 years before the events of Episode I.  It’s a look at one of the most powerful and influential Sith Lords in the Star Wars universe, Darth Bane.  He single-handedly destroyed the sith as it was known then and rebuilt it based on the Sith Lords of the past.  Namely Darth Revan and the “Rule of Two.”  The Rule of Two being that there can only be two Sith Lords at any given time.  A master and apprentice.  The book doesn’t cover all of this.  This book basically just covers his origin.  How he went from a lowly miner, to Darth Bane, Dark Lord of the Sith and completely destroyed the Sith as it was known at the time so he could enact his rule of two.  It was a really good read and can’t wait to read the next book in the Star Wars universe.

Starring Cate Blanchett, Ted Theodore Logan, the original Talk Soup guy, Schillinger, Lumbergh, Katie Holmes breastesses, and written by Sling Blade.  If you caught all those references, yay for you.

I avoided this movie for many years because it didn’t look all that good. Reviews were pretty bad as well. After a few years I’d hear references to the film here and there, and most was positive. So I begrudgingly added it to my netflix list.

I should have stuck with my original instinct. It was average at best.  The only saving grace was the aforementioned Katie Holmes breastesses.  They were quite impressive.  Not too big, not too small.  Nice bounce.  Seriously though…they were nice.

As for the movie, not as impressive as Katie Holmes breastesses.  I knew who the killer was 20 minutes into the movie which is impressive since the movie went nowhere for about 35 minutes.  The ending was a complete mess.  One of the worse endings I have ever witnessed.  If you hadn’t guessed by now, I say skip this movie.  You could probably find Katie Holmes breastesses online anyway.

Current Mood: Depressed

Well, the funeral was Wednesday and it was the hardest day of my life. It’d be so much easier if you knew what awaited you after death. Everybody kept trying to comfort me by saying, “she’s in a better place now.” Or “she’s watching over us now, smiling down.” How do you know? You don’t. It might be what you believe, but you don’t know. Nobody does. And if they say they do, they’re lying, crazy, or both. I don’t deny the existence of God, I’m just skeptical. Faith based religion just seems very convenient. The “we have no proof, you just gotta have faith” stuff.

I don’t know. The only comfort I can take from this is that she’s no longer in pain, and I was fortunate enough to have known her. To learn from her, and hopefully keep her memory alive for future generations by being a good son, uncle, cousin, friend, and eventually brother(she who shall not be named still drives me crazy).

Soon we’ll be back to my regularly scheduled blog posts full of “reality” TV, obscure movies, comics, and random shite. Just not yet. Stay classy people. Love your loved ones cuz you never know how long they’ll be here.
