Well, that's not far off right now. Recovering from a cold, and still popping throat lozenges like they're going out of style. ^__^

That's okay, I'll have to start doing something about my throat soon, so between the two of us we can buoy the lozenge industry.

Well, that's not far off right now. Recovering from a cold, and still popping throat lozenges like they're going out of style. ^__^ ~TWF I recently had an upper respiratory infection that put me on my *ss for weeks. There are a few things I did to help aside from antibiotics. Try Apple Cider Vinegar and water. Only about three teaspoons to a cup, but to be for sure look it up on the net. It helps break up congestion though, so if you're coughing and not coughing up anything try that. Another thing I did for my voice was make "honey aid" I think it was like two parts honey, one part lemon juice. I also mixed in a little vodka to help me sleep. Which you shouldn't do if you're on medication, but I wasn't really using enough to hurt me. So, don't try mixing Vodka with medication. Another thing I did was to dip my finger in vapor rub, and boil it. It helped clear out my head. You have to get a good amount from dipping it to make sure it works. Just don't forget you have it boiling, and whatever you do don't go outside for a while after you've been breathing it. Be sure and wait a while before going outside, because if you don't It'll make you cough even worse. I usually did this before I went to bed. Also, recliners are great for sleeping if you had a head cold. They also have something called Theroflu that people love. I think people around my campus have been getting the flu or something. Whatever it is I was one of the first people to catch it. I donno I caught the flu then everything got infected or what, but when I coughed it felt like every muscle in my body exploded.

Yeah, there's something like that going around in town. I got it from a friend (gosh, thanks) but she had it worse than I did, so I shouldn't complain. It's mostly the cough that's bothering me the most, but at least it's a good ab workout?
I wish my super power was not getting sick ever. U_U' Although I guess they wouldn't make any movies about me.

That's pretty funny, but it won't work with this. If you touch a keyboard, snack machine or door nob that somebody else has touched with this you're pretty much infected.

isnt there a Canadian Gay debat that isn't finished?
No but seriously all things aside the one thing I have noticed about movies is there largely depend on the person whos directing them. People who say movies are going to be good based on the actors need to pull there head out of there a$$'s and the actors a$$'s and wipe the crap off there lips. Yes Natalie Portman is hot and yes she's a decent actor but a few movies come to mind that blew chunks because the Director sucks. Chris Hemsworth is a good actor, but he's only been in what like one good movie who was not being directed by Kenneth Branagh.
Kenneth Branagh is probably a decent director but he's a director that has his successes and failures. Also looking at some of the writers for Thor im not giving it much thought. Ashley Miller looks more like a TV show writer and is already writing what looks to be a horrible movie. *Cough* X-men First class *Cough* Also lets see what other movies he has worked on?? Agent Cody Banks? Yea like I said before not looking towards it.
Also like I Said the trailers aren't really grabbing me since there's nothing to interest me. Explosions and fight sequences will only keep me interested for so long. Plus if I wanted to watch a movie with Explosions and Fighting I'll watch MMA with Transformers.
Okay I should say look for writers and Directors but I feel Directors hold everything together so there technically the scapegoat.
I mean look at Dragaonball Evo... the Movie that shall not be named. it had Yun-Fat Chow. I like him as an actor. He's really good but then he was in the movie that shall not be named.
Looking at good movies on the other hand We have Alien, Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, American Gangster, Blade Runner! There all done by Riddly Scott. Now im not saying he has never made a bad movie Im sure he has at one point but all of his movies actually have substance; Whether there telling a story somewhat original or a story based off of other events (Black Hawk Down or Robin Hood(story)) james Cameran is another Director who has made really good movies. Again Im not saying he hasn't made a bad movie but he has been making great movies like Aliens, Avatar, Terminator 1 & 2 True Lies.
The Thor movie Director I'm willing to give a chance but what I have seen so far it's just going to be another movie that should have been done better.
Like I said the only movies I'm willing to get excited about and not shut up about is the Alien Prequel and The Thing Prequel because it seems the Directors actually care about the movie there making.

Uh... Natalie Portman is neither hot nor a descent actress.
The actor's name is Chow Yun Fat.
And yes, actors have totally made or ruined movies before. There are several movies that would have sucked hard if not for the performances of the actors involved, and other movies that would have been much better if the actors had done a better job.

Chow is his family name, so you could technically call him Yun-Fat Chow in the west, the same way we tend to say "Akira Kurosawa" in the western order.

Uh... while you're technically correct, there's a reason we call Akira Kurosawa, Akira Kurosawa. Because thats what he called himself. I have his autograph, written by his own hand. You can google images of his autograph, and thats how he always signed it.
On the other hand, Chow Yun Fat has always gone by Chow Yun Fat, east, west, and in-between, so far as I know.

I'm asking for a friend, not bent on stealing your autograph, but where do you keep this autograph?

Where do I keep it? That's a really odd question LOL
I actually have it in my closet right now, because I have no space to hang it up on the walls where I live, and I'm not getting a new safe deposit box until May.

I don't think my point got across there. ^__ ^ The point is that using either the western or eastern name order is correct. Its like saying our birthday is January 23rd, or the 23rd of January. Neither is more correct than the other.
Akira Kurosawa was probably raised with the eastern name-order, but that doesn't matter; you can still call him Akira Kurosawa. He may have changed his preference to the western name order, Akira Kurosawa, but that doesn't matter; you can still call him Kurosawa Akira.
See what I mean?
