Random Wednesday
Item one: My favorite Bruce Cockburn song:
I got my mind on eternity, Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me…
Item two: Tom Cruise is not just crazy. He is some kind of super-level crazy we don’t even have words for yet. Hey, Tom? I got to the part where you started saying that either people have to get on your playing field or get out of the stadium, then I flashed onto V for Vendetta and wondered if a masked man was going to start calling you “Chancellor Sutler”. I won’t say what other historical eras I flashed onto, because it’s so gauche to start listing fascist regimes when in reality, this is just Hollywood. So Cruise is the nutty-ass Howard Hughes of our generation, big whoop. Christ. At least Hughes was INTERESTING. I just get this idea that after five minutes of conversation with Cruise I’d make a polite excuse and flee, bored out of my skull by the one-note symphony that is his love for himself. Scientology’s just a mirror. He could have ended up with just about any cult and done the same thing.
For extra credit: Read down for the the Tom Cruise Scientology Video drinking game.
Item three: WHY, I ask you, WHY, am I having Chronicles of Riddick dreams? I AM WRITING FRENCH RENAISSANCE FANTASY EPIC AND URBAN FANTASY WHUPASS. I do not need big-shouldered homicidal space-candy. If you see my Muse, can you please give her the memo?
On the other hand, I do agree with the Selkie that Vin Diesel’s shoulder’s are one of the modern wonders of the world. Shoulders are her particular weakness, and I cannot disagree. One of the finer moments of the recent remake of I Am Legend was Will Smith’s shoulders.
GUH. Hormone moment. Excuse me.
All right. Random Wednesday over. It’s back to work. I’m going to finish that draft today or go nuts trying.
Probably the latter. Heh. Enjoy your day, ducks.
