A Quiet Rage

The Brain: Ask any dope rat where their junk sprang and they'll say they scraped it from that who scored it from this who bought it off so and after four or five connections the list always ends with the Pin. But I bet you got every rat in town together and said 'show your hands' if any of them've actually seen the Pin, you'd get a crowd of full pockets.

"Keep up with me now." I rented a movie yesterday that I had been dying to see and that I actually had mentioned in a previous blog. Since it was only playing in Dallas I figured I'd rather wait and rent it despite the festering desire growing inside me. The movie is called Brick and I now regret not seeing it in theaters. It's such a crazy good movie and everybody should go and rent it. It's basically about a seemingly fearless guy named Brenden who receives a strange phone call from an ex-girlfriend who turns up missing. Brenden then finds himself mixed up with a group of characters involved in an underground crime ring. Besides Joseph Gordon Levitt's (10 things I Hate About You, 3rd Rock From the Sun) convincing performance, the best part of the movie is the unusual stylized dialogue. The way the characters talk is almost like jive, except not. It's hard to explain but just trust me -- this movie is mind-blowing. See it!







Alright, I had to plug that movie. I'm so buying that shit when I get a chance.

I'll be leaving for San Antonio tomorrow after my final, and then will be enduring a 12 hour trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama on Saturday. This will be a much needed vacation...and that's an understatement. I won't be updating for a couple of weeks, but I promise a great return blog. Peace and love! Laters for now!
