Cutest Animals Ever!

Elaina and I have come across a collection of the cutest animals in the world. Let us know what you think of them!
















PS. If any of these animals (or pictures) belong to you, let me know so I can give you proper credit ;)

I am a dork

So now that I've finished applying for the UT MBA program, I have plenty of time to sit around and do nothing. Luckily, my brothers have asked me to join them in a weekly online gaming program. I agreed, seeing no harm in this.

That is, until Elaina took these photos:




















What has happened to me??

A History of Violence

David Cronenberg's A History of Violence is probably one of the worst movies I've seen the past 5 years. Don't worry, I'm not going to give away anything about the movie, but it's not because I don't want to--there's NOTHING to give away. This movie is horrible!

Okay, okay, I'm being too hard. The movie almost has a great plot, and the first hour of the movie--although terribly weak in many areas--plays up the plot's strong points. I'd be lying if I said the movie started to suck after that first hour... that's because it started sucking about 10 minutes into it. The weirdest thing is that Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 90% rating, which is the whole reason we went to watch it.

Pros: a strange, if awkward tone about the movie. We always felt like something bad was going to happen, which was probably the most successful thing to come out of this movie.

Cons: horrible acting by 95% of the cast, a plot that goes nowhere and leaves everything unresolved, gruesome bloody close-ups that add nothing to the movie, two pointless and gratuitous sex scenes that each last about three minutes too long, William Hurt, seeing Viggo's somehow flabby asscheeks, and a screenplay written by an eight-year-old.

E-squared rating: I wish we'd spent our money doing anything else.
