Every time we turn something on with the test kit: "Shit, black hole!" ... n' my friend emailing me today: "Just a thought, sending out 28000 emails through the otk server isn't going to cause any problems right?"

(This is especially odd when...well, I won't give away the spoiler; let's just say it was NOT REMOTELY PREDICTABLE.) I thought it was effin' brilliant, and gorgeously shot. I haven't seen the Following or Memento. Saw the rest, though. The Prestige is pretty awesome, Frameshift comments about “Oh man, I could totally see SPOILER coming from a mile away,” aside.

I just usually only seem to find crap like Ghost Hunters (which I can't stand) when I think to look it up.

I tried to drop you an email yesterday to thank you for those articles. The address you put in on these blog entries bounces back, though, so I doubt you got it. Anyway, seems you saw the comment here, that's cool. Thanks Bev! I tried to drop you an email yesterday to thank you for those articles.
