The CROW

I noticed that THE CROW was on TV, but it was late at night, so rather than stay up to watch it, I decided to record it to DVD. I didn't realise it was the fourth installment - Wicked Prayer??? or some such crappy title.

I've never seen a CROW film before, so perhaps seeing the fourth incarnation first was a bad move. Was the original one any good?

I am left with 2 thoughts:

1 - I wasted a valuable recordable DVD on this piece of trash.
2 - I will never get back the 2 hours of life that were wasted watching it. I could have stopped at any point I guess, to see if there was anything better on. Right from the very first scene I could see it was going to be a rubbish, waste of time movie....... I was right.

You may have guessed that I didn't care too much for this film.

The Artistic use of Geometry in the Real World

That's rather a grand title, for what is in essence a rather pointless observation I made the other day.
I had nevr noticed it before, but am sure that it is universal.

I used a public toilet, washed my hands (which is of course only right!), then went to use the hand drier. it was then that I discovered that the blower angle is perfectly positioned to blow the droplets of water off of your hands, straight down ontot he front of your trousers - right onto the crotch!

I came out loking as though I had shaken a little too vigourously, which I can assure you I had not.
