Standing outside the old Limelight on 20th Street. I was talked into going to a post screening party of the movie Corporation. Didn't see the movie but was reminded why I don't drink or go to these things; filled with stupid wannabes. I left early and am waiting for some people to leave so we can get something to eat. Boy I do hate these gatherings and the people who are perpetually attracted to them; what a snob I am. 12:26:50 AM    comment []

went to Farenheit 9/11. I loved it. I thought it was better than Bowling for Columbine. I am aware that there are criticisms that Michael Moore is fast and loose with editing and the truth; I don't necessarily agree, but then again I am admittedly one of the believing choir. Yes he takes some "cheap" shots at some congressmen and edits outs anything that does not support his position, but at least he offers a shred of truth about George Bush(es). He may even be guilty of putting forth "Red Herrings" in order to lead the viewer along the path, but it is a path worth taking. After the Bushes I think his biggest target is the main stream media. I saw him in an interview with Matt Lauree(?) and Matt was asking him some tough questions about Farenheit 9/11, questions that he should be asking. At the end of the interview Michael Moore told Matt Lauree that if he and the rest of the main stream media had asked President Bush and his cohorts questions half at tough as the ones he was asking him, we would not be in the mess we were in today. 12:26:14 AM    comment []
