it's been five years (just like the bowie song)
before i start with the hate, i feel like i really need to let all of you know that i love that "five years" song by david bowie. sometimes i think it's my favorite song by him. to explain what kind of a bowie fan i am, let me say that my favorite records include low, aladin's sane, hunky dory and ziggy stardust.
there were like 7 9-11 documentaries on last night. what's the deal with that? it wasn't even 9-11. and talk about lazy, they were all documentaries made in like 2002. how can five years be a real marker if we don't make any new documentaries? i want to see how 9-11 affects (or effects, i always forget) people today in 2006, not in 2002. i can't even remember 2002. except i remember having this modern american literature class that changed my life. not because of anything we read (even though i was introduced to cane in that class and it remains one of my favorite books), but because i finally figured out literary criticism: you just argue for anything you want as long as you ground it in the text. if it wasn't for this class, i don't know if i'd still like star wars. i mean they're much more interesting movies when you focus on all the homo-eroticism and the dangers of suppressing homosexual tendencies.
