Like it says on the label. Crawfording a little on finishing my write up. Maybe tomorrow :).

Watched True Romance yesterday. Was good.
Watching Haywire now (having trouble getting into it, but I will watch to the end).
Also, Deception. Also good. Though I'm not all that discerning :)

...


And recently: Man of Tai Chi. Thanks HackerCracker. I liked the martial art element. Once upon a time, long, long ago I trained as a ninja. Yeah, seriously. Though the correct name is ninjitsu. I quit before I became a black belt though. Mostly I ran out of time, and decided to focus on uni studies over being a ninja. Man, I really loved it though! Still have all the training weapons. Wooden sword (boken), 4 ft long wooden stick (hanbo) (this was my preferred weapon), rubber ninja stars (those fuckers are harder to throw accurately than you would think! And the myth is that they are a lethal weapon. They are not. It is impossible to throw them with enough force for that. They are used for distraction.), a wooden knife analogue, and some other stuff. It was a legit club too, not some knock-off. Only a couple steps removed from the grand-master Hatsumi in Japan. And it was completely different than Karate pussies. We had black gi's instead of white, had special ninja socks and shoes, full contact training (ie, I would almost always come home with 3 inch across bruises, higher levels people broke bones), and was highly technical. That's the bit I loved the most. It wasn't rote learning, repeating the same shit over and over. Every session we learnt something new.

BTW, any guesses on what my secret project is all about? Trane suggested macro simulation of quantum particles. Ehh... not really.

I used to think that technical documentation was critical to a successful project. Despite being (at that time) rather bad at writing (less patience than sye).

So, I should listen to myself. Spend some mirror time and clear away the smoke.
