Of course we all know what has happened in Haiti over the past couple of weeks and I'm sure we can all agree that it is unfortunate for all the natural reasons that you could call it unfortunate, from the poverty to political chaos, but what makes the story even sadder is when you take into account Haiti's past as a country whose slave population revolted and defeated their slave masters.
It was a great victory Toussaint L'Ouverture, who lead the revolt, and it must have really scared the rest of the slave owners in the world.

I would also say it generated some serious hate for Haiti because the country has suffered countless efforts by colonial powers to ruin it since then.

When I heard the moronic words of Pat Roberts and of Rush Limbaugh, I could not help but be disgusted.

In any case my sympathies (for what ever they're worth) goes out to the victims in Haiti and I would encourage people to support any legitimate efforts to send aid to the battered people of Haiti and I hope the problem does not endure.

I heard this quote while I was having breakfast and I thought it said a lot about the way people think, at least some of them. So i decided to share it with yall just as something to think about.

So I very much enjoyed watching this film. i mean of course it is a visual masterpiece. Landscapes, characters, animal life, make the film hard to turn away from. I enjoyed the build up, the fact that the hero was in a wheelchair, which added something to the characters experience. I really liked all the performances. They were worth watching and i wasn't bored at any time.
That being said, i thought some of the references were pushy, like the shock and awe line and little hints about Iraq that didn't feel natural, or maybe I'm just reading too much into, lol. . I'm also not sure how I feel about a movie with a 300 million dollar price tag, but it didn't keep me from liking the film. I think it borrowed from many places, but did it in such a a way as to make them its own. This review is a first impression and I'm sure I will watch the film again, but for now I have to say 8 out of 10 for me.

Yes, it has to be said. I love this show, and i'm a pretty picky guy when it comes to TV. The early part of the first season was a little cheesy because they had to explain everything, but they have adapted well. Tim Roth is great as this Cal, if for no other reason then his quirky performances. I always enjoy watching things with him in it. The supporting cast is great too. Torrez is sexy as hell, and they also added my man Mekhi Phifer to the mix. The show works on so many levels, and the guy whom the techniques are based on writes a blog breaking down the science of the show, so you can understand what is real and what is entertainment. Worth watching.

Lie To Me airs Monday nights at 9pm on Fox 5

The movie is fast paced and pretty to look at, but dumb as a post. There are too many things to make fun of, but if you want to shake your head a lot, this is the movie to see.
