Review...
Last I went to see Ocean's Twelve- and it did satisfy my taste for heist movies. The movie picks properly, and the plot is just as twisting as the first film. That said, the movie does have a few big flaws, mainly that it is heavily dependent on the first film, since the movie makes untold references to Ocean's Eleven. By untold, I mean literally the first half of the entire movie. Other than that, I give the movie 4 out of 5 stars, as part of a series, not as a stand-alone. Fun movie. However, if you choose to see it, make sure you see Ocean's Eleven on DVD at least within a day or so before seeing Ocean's Twelve. That should make it more effective to view.

Editorial...
On a unrelated note, I did see a article in the Oregonian today on gay marriage (I however, did not read it so, I will not qoute or misread it to you). This comes back to the same old problem with the issue, since most on the west side of Oregon (the state I live in when I'm not in a state of elation) seems to distort and not really get the opposition view (Or they're just blind I don't honestly know). The real issue behind gay marriage is activist judges. The ban on gay marriage is in response to that. When hear of people bringing the measure to court, I become disgusted. The measure was an act against courts and activist judges. Those same activist judges perform actions that always are akin to legislature. Such things are wrong and even more so, corrupting the justice sytem. The founding fathers never intended for the judicial system to become a second law making body. That power alone is in congress and state legislatures. I'm not against the concept of gay marriage, but I'm against the means by which it is being achieved. If a judge in Massachusetts can redefine the laws on marriage country-wide, something seriously has gone wrong.

"Hey, this is God Can I please have your attention

There's a need for intervention

Man, I'm disappointed in what I'm seeing

Yeah, this is God

You fight each other in my name

Treat life like it's a foolish game

I'd say you've got the wrong idea...

...Yeah, this is God I've given everything to you

But look at what you do to the world that I created

This is God

What's with this attitude and hate

You grow more ignorant with age

You had it made,

now look at all you've wasted..."

Odd isn't it, how fanatics get really riled up, huh? This ain't about the qoute above, no it has to do with the utter intelligentsia of the liberal/progressive movement. Don't know what I mean? Well, now, just go and read some of the bias on the liberal Bush hate sites. Go ahead, I'll wait.
See how disturbing they are? The utter lack of reason behind them, is well, not as bad as it was when conservatives were bashing Clinton during his scandal. It is in fact, much, much worse. How can people harbor such venomous hate for a individual they've never met, let alone tried to comprehend?
The Liberal movement has a secular taint to it. It's bigger than that of the conservative, therefore making liberalism far more dangerous. Conservatives voted Bush back in for values, but it wasn't values like abortion or gay rights. No, it had to do with God. Our country was founded under the concept of there being a higher being who favored our side. Not a God of fanatical religion like some liberals hate, but a God of Reason. Look at the seal of the United States. Both sides of it. Both are on a dollar bill. The 'All-seeing eye' represents reason. They choose an eagle as a symbol, and used the number 13 a great deal. Why? It had nothing to do with 13 colonies. It had to do with the founders proclaiming a divine hand in the founding of the United States of America.
The liberal movement is at its core, a fragmented movement. Not all liberals are as whacko as the base of the movement. However, the idea of the movement is wrong. It promotes charity through the government. Thats wrong and communistic. On the other hand, maybe I think their whack because they're primarily behind the destruction of american culture. Or, I could call those unadulturated whacks against conservatives by calling them 'stupidheads' evidence enough.
These people are losing, and their voices happen to carry really far. Somebody, please unplug their computers so I don't have to listen anymore.

I hate being sick. I don't like the end of the term at College. For me, both have happened at the same time. Just dandy isn't it? Anyway, I'm happy with the way my finals have been going, but no matter how much I try, I can't seem to stop sneezing, coughing, or such like. Ah well.

Today I got a letter from a friend of mine. Stuff like that keeps me happy. And happiness is a good thing. Doubt it? Ask the Ukrainians about that one, bub.
