It's Friday!
Actually friday is just like any other day now since I lack a job, and i'm not going to school. Whoo!Okay, so I got a new mp3 player the other day and it's the best out there. It's the Cowon X5 (my version is the X5L whch has lots more battery life).
-20gb
-color screen
-35 hours of battery
-audio, photos, and video!
-sexy design
-drag and drop capabilities (no software req)
-limitless equalizers settings
It's clearly better than the ipod, but people just seem to just follow what's popular. You should see all the mindless looking drones in the subways around nyc.

Michael's movie of the week:
This is one of the best and most engrossing sci fi movies to come out for a long time. The acting performances from Brad Pitt and Bruce Willis are some of the best of their respective careers. This film has an incredibly haunting environment, and has a great twisted little plot. For a time traveling movie, it really keeps you wondering about a lot of things. It's the type of movie you have to see more than once to truly appreciate it. The dvd came with a documentary detailing the making of the movie. You can see a lot of the struggles that the director Terry Gilliam had to go through. From adapting somone else's script, to wonderining what ending to put in the movie. In retrospect we can see that the movie was a box office success and is highly acclaimed. If you haven't seen it yet, rent it.
