icepixie1. I totally have an essay topic for my comedy film class. Oh, yes. I shall be writing about the similarities between Bugs Bunny and Groucho Marx and how they manipulate language to get their ways. Or maybe I'll just dump the Marx brothers and write about Bugs and company. Either way, Serious Academic Work on CARTOONS, wheeee!
2. I uploaded a bunch of photos that have been piling up. They're in the "Nashville Over Winter Break" and "Exeter in January" galleries. Almost entirely of flowers and streams and sunsets and stuff, with a few of the dogs and the cat thrown in for laughs.
3. I'm about 95% sure that my sinus infection has returned. ARGH.

We're watching Life of Brian, and I'm sure the prof wouldn't object to writing a paper about any of the other ones. But I think I'll probably do my other paper on When Harry Met Sally, 'cause, dude. It's When Harry Met Sally. Love.

Because your school had some sort of standards? ;) Okay, I take it back, this class might teach me something...anything has to teach me more than that Screenwriting class last semester. Oy.
You know, you could always just write an article on language in cartoons and submit it to a journal or something... *eg*
