UNDERRATED FILM #1 Southland Tales
Where do I start? Science Fiction, Black Comedy, Fantasy, Satire, Musical, these are just a few of the genres which make up this Smorgasbord of a film. Theres no doubt about it, it’s a mess but a beautiful, thought-provoking heap of a mess. And if that doesn’t make you want to see it, then Dwayne The Rock Johnson uttering the line, “I’m a pimp. And pimps don’t commit suicide”, should.
Such a good movie and so many people seem to hate it for some reason.

View Larger THE HOLY GRAIL: A unique triple-barrelled shotgun made for a Scots aristocrat has been sold at auction for £43,000 (then $66,000). The shotgun - dubbed the “Holy Grail” - was made in April 1891 for John Adrian Louis Hope, 1st Marquess of Linlithgow and the seventh Earl of Hopetoun. The three-barrelled ejector, 16-bore gun, with three triggers, was designed by renowned Edinburgh gun makers John Dickson & Son and is the only one of its kind. Its origins were identified after the gun was taken to a valuing event at Hopetoun House, South Queensferry, and it has now been sold at Holt’s auction in London, to a private collector, after fierce bidding from around the world.
View Larger I was looking for this the other week. If you sign up for the military in order to go to college, don’t act surprised when you get stationed in a place where you might get shot. Don’t forget that these aren’t the only things we have been involved in. Check out this list. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_United_States_military_operations
