Training Day is a good movie. I know there is a lot of violence and bad language, but the good guy stays good, and the bad guy is ultimately punished for his wrongdoing. I can't argue with a movie that works out that way in the end. I appreciate a story with a strong morality message embedded in it.
Another interesting movie I recently watched is The Book of Eli. It also had some strong violence in it, but since the preservation of the gospel message is the goal of the protagonist... I sort of think that's pretty cool. The action in the movie is more Samson than Savior, but what can you expect in a post-civilization world devoid of Scripture?
I'm really craving oatmeal cookies with raisins. Weird. I never want those. Nevertheless, I want them right now. I can't see a way that I can achieve this monumental task of procuring said cookies....and this is troubling to me on two levels. level 1 says that I am going to keep wanting them. Level two says that I am going to begin obsessing over an inferior cookie until I end up with some in my belly. Oh My Word.
I'm writing this blog during an online french class from which I have checked out mentally a long time ago. I haven't been involved in this class for at least 2 hours. I should get back. *sigh*
