| "Thatsa So Nice!" - Mario

Jon was in town for his birthday (and mine, a woman can dream can't she girls!?) so we went and saw Tropic Thunder. It was fuckin' funny! Robert Downey Jr was pretty funny - like it was kind of uncomfortable haha, but you know, I think it was harmless for the most part (he's playing a Russel Crowe-type actor who has an operation to look black for his film roll.) I haven't seen a goofy comedy in awhile, and there was a lot of funny shit in there.

I was telling Jon I've been pretty hooked on Old Time Radio dramas through itunes - either the radio station "AM 1710 Antioch" from the radio tab, or a few random podcasts that broadcast these old 40s-50s programs. There are some that are really good and fucked up - it seems like suspense/thrillers were huge back then and a lot of them are pretty morbid. Yeah, women kinda get a bum rap for the most part, and then godforbid there's a foreigner in one of the stories, hahaha some rad stereotypes, but it's a blast to listen to these.

I also gave Jon one of my DS games for a bday present (I have two copies of it now *COUGH!* homebrew *COUGH!*) and it's a good one if any of you DS guys are into rogue-likes. Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer. It's really good. Hard as fuck. Basically you go through these dungeons and in between every few levels there are towns where you can drop off gear and stock up - so basically you go through collecting shit so eventually you can complete the game. When you die, you go back to the start of the game without any of your money or gear (BUT - the stuff you put in warehouses stays, so you can eventually have a nice arsenal.) It's neat if nethack-type gaming is your thing.
