Благодаря виртуальным восторгам Lily of the Valley относительно некоего Моррисси в сегодняшнем набеге на магазин с дисками захватил его мп3шник. И оно хорошо. Пожалуй, даже заменит почти заменит мне безвозвратно расцарапанных ДюранДюран.

Да и в целом охота нынче была удачной (хотя теоретически неплохо бы начать экономить... Вспомнил, кстати: через три месяца - Новый Год! А через два - ДыР хорошего человека. А через один - Хеловин).

Читаю "Кухню" Бананы Ёсимото. Про девушку, у которой все умерли. Притом книга необычайно светлая и уютная, по-тувеянссоновски мудрая.

Хорошо. В мире ещё полно хороших книг. А то я не знал, как жить, когда "Американские боги" кончились.

Ну и узнал тут потрясную новость из области киношного: "Парамаунт" снимает "Трансформеров"!!! Йухухухуху! (с) ru_proda %) Режиссёрствует Майкл Бэй, первые материалы обещают к январю-февралю.

И ещё новостишка, бонусом: в третьих "Пиратах Карибского моря" будет Чоу Юн-Фат. ^_^

А вот это было случайно обнаружено в недрах... описания к любимому винамповскому скину "ДаркФорсез". о_О



Don't taunt those on the Dark Side of the Force...Don't taunt those on the Dark Side of the Force.



Never take candy from men in dark helmets.

When pulled over by a man in uniform, simply say, you don't need to see his identification.

In negotiations, a thermal detonator can come in handy.

Check your neighbour's freezer to see if you left there any friends.

Remember: taking your droids to a bar will only arouse suspision.

Before you kill someone make sure they aren't your father.

If you care about your well-being, NEVER build a nuclear reactor shaft in the CENTER of your own room.

Cute, cuddly, widdle teddy bears usually will eat you alive unless you can prove you're a god.

Make sure the door is completely open before going through it.

Pay your debts on time, you can't always kill the bill collector.

Don't ever brag about your hyperdrive.

If you teach out of a swamp, don't expect many students.

Young men should be wary of getting involved with crazy, old hermits who like to be called "Master."

Don't drive alien bikes at full speed in a forest, especially if you're too small to reach the brake pedal.

Always check the background of people you want to get intimately involved with (they may be your relatives).

If your vehicle is being rammed, ducking doesn't help much.

Green senior citizens with big ears don't just appear in quiz shows.

Wise is the walking, talking Muppet.

Decorate rooms with frozen folks.

One human would be able to feed an entire tribe of Ewoks.

If you get nuisance phone calls, shoot the phone.

If you run a military academy, go over how to deal with small, furry opponents.

No matter how tasty that hunk of meat looks on that pole on that forest moon, don't grab it; it's probably a trap.

Never let your friend know you're having problems with your droid.

Don't park in asteroids.

Kids, beware: if you don't behave, your parents could cut your hand off.

Everything has a weakness, it's just a matter of exploiting it:

Emperor - overconfident

Luke - his friends

Death Star - thermal exhaust port

Stormtroppers - Ewoks

Star Destoyers - bridge deflector shields

Darth Vader - compasion for his kids

Leia - smugglers

Chewie - dead animals hanging from trees

3PO - frail body

If you see a small blue elephant at a party, you haven't necessarily had too much to drink.

Don't use advanced targeting computers; rely on the voice of an old madman inside our head when you shoot.

When faced with extreme danger, go headlong to the meanest ship. Chances are, Lord Vader will choke his superior to death before perishing himself.

It is impossible for a sophisticated, specialised military computer to hit a target that is just two meters wide.

Don't ever go into a hole. If it gets mad enough it might try to eat you!
