Tom and I went to school together. Funny to see him on the BBC!

Just what I need (not)

I can feel a hole in my top right bicuspid. Shit. If I go to the dentist he's going to find 24 things to do to my teeth, none of which I can afford.

today's movie

Zack and Miri Make a Porno. Funny, and considerably easier to understand than last week's. There go all my claims to intellectual pretension. But hey, at least I laughed.

Interesting

Someone commented on Tom (my friend) wearing a poppy during his BBC interview (Americans don't do that; for us, 11 November is Veterans Day), and Tom replied that it's BBC policy that you have to wear one! Which is interesting because the BBC claim it's a personal decision.
