King Kong in Cannes on a date with Superman

Well I WAS thinking that the song 'Absurd' was... Well... For lack of a better word, ABSURD!

Once you read the lyrics, it's kinda hard to imagine it playing in a seedy strip joint... But then again, it's perfect for when it does. Kinda absurd. But a masterpiece all the same.
I'm not gonna proselytize anymore in THIS post, at least... So on to the good stuff:
I watched Proof.
Oh my god. What a great movie. And then I ended up watching Cloverfield.
Oh my god.
I am insane! What prompted me to keep the TV on after Proof, anyway?
Totally ended the mental high I'd got... Sometimes I'm just too stupid for words.
No... A quick correction, I'm NEVER too stupid for words. Not yet anyways.
I found an old diary today. Unused, except for the start page, which informed me that I bought it from Capital Book Depot in Chandigarh on mum's last birthday... Well I liked it so much that apparently I forgot all about when I came back home! Or maybe it was my stupid habit of treating my diaries as persons and strictly adhering to a code of monogamy with them.
Eugh... I know, I know.
But enough of that. I ended the tradition and turned Mormon with them. I now am the proud owner of three diaries. Actually I own more than that... But these three are the ones I'm currently ravaging... All paper shall be put to the fire and sword. I have long crossed the Rubicon with words...

Hail Caesar, Morturi Te Salutant.

P.S. In keeping with tradition of incorporating my post title with the contents... King Kong was a partial inspiration for Cloverfield... The directors wanted an ALL AMERICAN monster... Not something similar to Godzilla... But an American Monster such as King K. Rool... Uh... Kong.
