The Long Kiss Goodnight

So the other night I saw they were running The Long Kiss Goodnight so I TiVo'd it. This is an excellent action film with Geena Davis (yes, I said Geena Davis and action film in the same sentence). She's the school teacher that “private eye” (use that term loosely) Samuel Jackson refers to as “amnesia chick”. Turns out they found her on the beach eight years ago with no memory. A car crash, some strange dreams and a little bit of info dug up by the private eye and we on our way.

It's a good chase from there to figure out who's bad and who's good and who's really bad. It's definitely a different movie for Geena so check it out on the late night movies, NetFlix it or (gasp) physically leave the couch and go to the video store. The picture on the cover of the DVD does nothing to promote the film, maybe it's supposed to look like Lethal Weapon or something.

So this movie makes me think of friend from high school, Ken Christensen, I'm not sure if it's the plot, Geena Davis or both. But this came out after the last time I've seen him so I know we never talked about it or saw it, but I can't get that thought out of my head...

TTLB Ecosystem Near Me

So, similar to what I did the other day for the TTLB Ecosystem (a rating system for blogs based on links) I've looked at the 10 blogs above me and below me and listed the ones that I liked. Today, I rate 8051 and list has about 45,000 entries. I was curious what was “near” me so I figured you should be curious too...

  • 8042. Bruce Eisner's Vision Thing
  • 8044. Emergent Voyageurs
  • 8045. The Michael Bane Blog
  • 8046. diary of a london cokehead

  • 8047. the Weary Pilgrim
  • 8049. Doing the right thing
  • 8050. Make My Vote Count
  • 8051. Gary Said...
  • 8052. Patriotic Mom
  • 8053. Neo-Hippie Ramblings - I'm a Non-Conformist Just Like All My Friends
  • 8054. Danny Ayers, Raw Blog
  • 8055. Ambot ah! [ technology news and reviews ]
  • 8057. Elder of Ziyon
  • 8058. Security Awareness for Ma, Pa and the Corporate Clueless
  • 8059. IN CASE OF LOVE...run like hell and never look back!
  • 8060. Polish (Legal) Immigrant Deep in the Melting Pot
  • 8061. InhouseBlog - News for Inhouse Counsel

    My criteria was pretty loose: looked okay, reads semi-okay and has been recently updated. I listed most of them except the one not in English, one that hadn't updated in a month and one that wasn't a blog. Like I said, I was just curious. It's strange I fall right in the middle of a bunch of political or religious blogs. Maybe the blog-o-sphere consists of that high of a percentage of them, but I just don't read them often(?).
