So I'm watching Taken. Actually I'm watching it for the second and a half time. And I just found out about it last month. I cannot justify this movie. It's very well-done, but the plot is...not good. One detail I'm especially not thrilled with is the virgin/slut contrast between Kim and her friend Amanda.

With the podcast I listen to, You're Wrong About, I'm up to their episodes on Tipper Gore's campaign against Heavy Metal.

I'm reading Under His Very Windows by Susan Zuccotti, a depressing book about what little the Pope did to help Holocaust victims during World War II.

I'm re-reading my Cable and Deadpool trades. This was a Marvel comics series in 2004 that took two very different characters and put them in a book together. Cable is a soldier-from-the-future who has deep ties to X-Men continuity. Deadpool is a brain-damaged mercenary who cracks jokes and can break fourth wall. This leads to a hard-to-describe but very good series.

Yeah, that definitely rubs me that wrong way too.
