[Kitsune06]

www.instructables.com has me stuck. Making a shaker flashlight out of a tictac box... flame thrower out of a spiderman water gun... I mean... wow! I wish I had access to that site as a kid!

(well... maybe not. I was dangerous enough!)

[snapdragen]

Pictures, please.

But of course!

Kitsune: Glad to hear she's ok. So whadja have for dinner? I love leftovers. I saw that pic at the theatre and was glad he didn't keep talking in all V's. (think the very beginning of the pic) I wasn't too bad but overall not my kind of movie. A little dark for me but I liked the political undercurrent.

Nanci: Congrats on being a mommy again. So, when's she coming? Do you think she'll get along with the other "children"?

Lise: Very cool on J. So happy for you. So are you going to Paris at some point or ???

fishdr: Glad to see you back. Great news that you are getting to know some other riders. You'll be back on the bike soon I'm sure. I wish I was still a kid. I loved getting dressed up for Halloween. Wait, I still do! Actually, it was a fundraiser for the local humane league. I was a scarecrow. (right, BIIIG stretch there X) I didn't get any pics of me (cuz I'm the photographer, NOT the subject thankyouverymuch) but I may be in some that the league took. No one had to ask me what I was so I guess I did good. There was one lady dressed as what I took to be a zucchini. I dunno.

BMo3: Good job on saving the Peeps. I must admit, I stopped on my way home from work tonight and got a package. I can hear them chirping from the kitchen. (which is weird cuz they're pumpkins ) But I'm not listening, nope ya can't make me eat ya. I won't do it... ***puts fingers in ears*** I don't hear you! (Oh man, the packs of cocoa are right there in the cupboard.) Aaaaaaaah!! (Go on, you know you wanna.) NOOO!!!! (Sure just one, no one will know) I'll know. (Don't make me bring up the time you ate...) Wha... hey now, that's not right! This is a family forum, afterall. (hehehe, go ahead, have a Peep)

You suck.

Mmmmm. Oh, that was really good. (Told ya) I feel so cheap. ***shakes head*** Beaten down by my own mind. Now I'll have to go to confession tomorrow... and I'm not even Catholic. (sigh) Well anyway, good job on saving your Peeps, BMo3.

X.

I actually really liked his V monologue. ...aannnd I'm kinda dark. The first time I saw the movie, I was kind of upset that we didn't get to see his face, but now I'm pretty convinced that it would've taken away from the movie. Oh! I love the movie so much...

We had a cheap 'n easy pasta thingum, but most of it ended up being leftovers for today. Prolly just as well.

You? Dark? Ah, I don't believe it.

[Kitsune06]

muahahahaha!

Ok, here ya go, Kit. Enjoy!

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose vis-à-vis an introduction, so let me simply add that it's my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V.

Actually, I found it rather interesting in an interview that I read that Alan Moore, who was the guy responsible for the comix series, refused to have anything to do with the making of the film. Bitter about losing his rights to it long ago I believe. Of course, he's done this with all of his stories that have been made into movies, such as The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. That one definitely could have used his guidance. Incredible mind and imagination. Alas, for my tastes, just a bit dark. Like I said tho, gutsy political statements. Gotta respect him on that.

Maybe I'll rent V this w/e and give it another try. Just for you, Kit.

[Kitsune06]

Watch it on Sunday the 5th.

The script you found was the original wachowski bros script... here's the link to the one in the movie... I think it "works" a little better.

[Xrayted]

Why the 5th?

[Kitsune06]

"Remember, remember,
the fifth of November,
The gunpowder treason and plot.
I know of no reason
why the gunpowder treason
should ever be forgot. "

The movie starts and ends on Nov 5th with a year lapsing between the beginning and end.

Sorry, it hit me after I posted it. The movie was originally supposed to come out on the 4th to tie it all in. I remember it cuz the 5th is my b-day. I guess I've got b-day plans now. Thanks Kit! (You're trying to turn me to the dark side aren't you? )

More interesting still is that Alan Moore shares a b-day with Nanci. (Well, different year I'm sure.) Had to look that one up. I figured he was a trouble making Scorpio too.
