some popes are evil!
act three of this week's TAL made me laugh for about half a mile running from the tennis courts (across from the statue) to the new academy of sciences (passing by the back) - not just chuckling, but full on i-don't-care-if-tourists-are-staring-while-i-run-and-laugh laughing. check it out.

in other news, facebook is actually good for something since someone just posted a story that oakland's parkway is closing - i think i've only seen one or maybe two movies here, but man watching the departed there with steve and chris while stoned out of my mind was one of the most fun moments i've had in the past five years. if i recall, steve laughed each time someone got shot, especially if they got shot in the face. we both giggled each time anthony anderson was on screen. and you've never quite seen a movie until you've heard black folks yelling back at the screen - e.g. "why'd he do that?" "damn."
