Mar. 4th, 2004 08:10 amYou're not a geek until you've watched THX-1138. http://www.thx-1138.org/ Watching Ken?
When I was a budding freak from Gaithersburg, I met a guy while working in the Lakeforest Mall Chi-Chis, Matt. He was a former door-man and bouncer from LA, into the 'alternative' scene. We wound up going to Poseur's together on a regular basis, where I was entranced but scared of all the 'cool' people. In the bottom level, there was a wide screen projection TV, with the old red/blue/green lights broadcasting the picture on the screen.
I remember one night being near the dance floor DRESSED HORRIBLY and seeing Mr. Mohawk going up to his Asian probably-girlfriend-at-the-time with drinks in front of the screen. The screen was showing THX-1138, a scene where two hairless lovers are entertwined. Adam's hair cast a 3-colored shadow across their blue and white shining bodies, and the whole scene was obscured by the smoke that filled the room.
I wrote about the experience in a free-form essay in college english, and was recommended for drug counseling.

I sure post a lot for someone that works for a living! (it takes what, 10 seconds to post?)
My contracts class was just cancelled by my sick professor. Remember the prof I had the crush on? She is still too cool for words. Last night she stopped in the middle of lecture and asked us to hold on for 2 minutes. She then stepped into the hallway. She was wearing a wireless mic as she tore into a fit of coughing...someone rushed out to warn her that the thing was still on. She came back in, and said "You know, I was coughing and heard all this laughter. I was thinking "Well that's odd..."
I, on the other hand, am a dork that still says inappropriate things in stuffy places. Still, once in a while I get away with it...with a lil' help!
( See why )
So if I can fininsh my paper tonight, I can go to alchemy for the first time since um, a long time ago. I don't have to go, not saying I will, hell I'm not saying I'll finish the damn paper - just saying if I do I could afford to go.
