6 multiplied by 9?

I've neglected this blog.
On films: I realize that firefly is not a film, but I have recently purchased and watched the whole of it and was left wanting more. I've seen several episodes as well as Serenity so I now continue to ask: "what is wrong with Fox?"
I saw 300 a few weeks back - my verdict: ok. I was disappointed in the length - they could've closed out the story better and made it a great movie to me. I thought there was too much nudity. The effects were great but they needed to focus on the story rather than making sure that every sword hit has a blood splatter.

On politics: the state of this country is frightening. Is there anyone who stands for anything? No political figure has been able to hold my respect besides Joe Wilson. I have this sinking feeling that this country is pretty much screwed due to foolish argumentation and arrogant greed.

On music: I just bought a few CD's - Relient K [Five Score And Seven Years Ago]: I'm a mite disappointed but there are a few songs good enough to justify the purchase (plus I have all of thier other CDs so why not). Third Day [Chronology Vol. 1]: A lot of repeated work but good. Worth the buy. The Almost [Southern Weather]: Amazing. Aaron Gillespe (sp?) is awesome - I hope I can put out an album like that one day. Anberlin [Cities]: Pretty close to an extension of Never Take Friendship Personal - it's good. This puts me at overr 300 CDs now. (so that's where all of my money went...)

I hope to bring the status of this blog to semi active - perhaps a post per week.
