...don't want you on your back; i just got on my feet

dude, it's Monday morning. how do you think i'm feeling?:

i owe massive e-mails to SO many people. O.O;;; just, er, in case any of you didn't know that. but quite frankly, i probably owe massive e-mail to most people who're reading this, sooo... *whistles innocently* ahem.

i had a good time this weekend, despite the fact that NO VIDEO STORE WITHIN A 15 MILE RADIUS seems to carry "The Italian Job." bastards. but on the plus side, we probably wouldn't have had time to watch it this weekend, anyway. too much else going on. (and this when i thought i had nothing going on this weekend. XD)

there was coverage of the WRC Safari Rally on SpeedChannel this weekend...and whilst their announcer still sucks ass, at least it's not the same annoying fuck from the beginning of the season. i miss the British announcers from last season terribly, but apparently expecting all the NASCAR-watchers that SpeedChannel is catering so hardcore to now to understand any sort of British accent is asking too much, so therefore we're stuck with annoying fuckface losers who (with few exceptions) don't know what they're talking about. RAR. but this guy...well, he doesn't seem utterly clueless, so i'll not complain about him TOO much. anyway, a few things amused me mightily about Safari. one, Tommi Makinen's hat, the Subaru one you'd see on his head occasionally when he wasn't in his car. he looked like Paddington Bear! XD XD XD two, yeah...were i skilled enough to even consider being a rally driver, i'd probably do this, too...but nevertheless, Colin McRae altering course to avoid nasty rocks and other fun assorted bits of the Kenyan terrain was amusing. when in doubt, just pull off onto the grass! XD and finally, Kenya. just the whole of what we got to see of Kenya in the rally coverage was really gorgeous and intimidating. ^.^

and of course, there was the F1 French Grand Prix this weekend as well. which was...disappointing. especially after having been so exciting. you don't know how happy it would've made me if Kimi had won. damn. >.<;;; though he seemed pretty pissed off during the podium ceremony...i know i'd be terribly angry at myself if i'd blown it in the way he ended up doing. still, though. were it not for that oil and his subsequent driving issues, i'm fairly confident he would've won. and i'm sure he will in the future, too. i'm kinda sad the driver's championship is over this early on in the season, but it seemed pretty much inevitable, honestly. and i was impressed that the stewards saw fit to give Michael a drive-through for crossing the white line coming out of the pit lane...since it so often seems like he's given special treatment, it was nice to see...even if i did also think that it was meant more to keep the rest of the season (or at least this race) interesting rather than as a sincere punishment for him. *shrugs* whatever. and poor Rubens! he gets screwed so much of the time. ;.;

and in other weird (yet interesting) news, Heinz-Harald Frentzen is apparently considering a WRC drive for the future. O.O;;; i have no idea how i feel about that. it'd be cool to see him try...i have no idea how good he'd be at it, but it'd be interesting...^.^

also, saw Minority Report this past weekend. not bad for a Hollywood movie, but really rather disappointing. click here for spoilers.

finally, have some Super Mario fun. this is only amusing, however, if you've got the sound turned up. enjoy. (link courtesy Spaz).XD

oh well. perhaps more later. we'll see.
