went media buy crazy again. heres what i just got from amazon:
Good News For People Who Love Bad News - Modest Mouse
Snatch (Special Edition)
Layer Cake (Widescreen Edition)
Has Been - William Shatner
Mr. & Mrs. Smith (Widescreen Edition)
Black Books - The First Complete Series
Puddle Cruiser
Morningwood
The Aristocrats

Music:
I've been meaning to buy the Modest Mouse and Shatner CD for a while but keep forgetting. Morningwood is fucking awesome. I heard them on XM a while back and liked the song. I started listening to the rest of the CD this morning and the thing sounds like a callback to 80s hair bands with electronic overtones... all sung by a woman. i highly suggest it.

Movies:
I needed to own Snatch
Comedy Central showed a couple of episodes of Black Books about 2 years ago and then stopped airing it. funny, funny British comedy about three people who run a book store. think of it as a Stacked, but funny.
The rest are movies i havent seen but really want to.

and in my world of surealism, i got another brief glimpse into oddity:
I was sitting in the starbucks at the base of Key Tower, it was unusually packed. i noticed, because i have keen skills in the area, that about 25 of the people were in clean, black suits. men, women, young, old... all dressed for success. with the law firms in the area, suits are normal, but they rarely travel in packs like that. i chalked it up to a random coincidence. then 7:45 hit and all, ALL of them hurridly walked away. all at the same time. not a couple here and there. all of them at once. no one looked at each other, i didnt notice some odd alpha suit issue the order. they all just seemed to know that it was time to leave.
