This past week we surpassed 60 followers on this blog! Isn't that great! Though since I only get about 45-55 unique views a day I have a feeling some of you are just following me for my sexiness, and don't really care *tears*. It's ok though, I'm enough of a self promoter I'll take it! Also next week begins 23 days of Kurosawa! I hope you're all as excited as I am!!!! From March 1st to the 23rd this blog's going to get the Kurosawa takeover... and you're all invited (and you can participate if you want!!!!For your Consideration:
I have to admit I'm kind of disappointed with you all this past week. I mean, really, where are my write-ups on pineapples and their relation to zombies in film!? Sheesh, I'm going to have to keep looking for new people to follow at this rate :P

New Poll: The BAFTAs where this past weekend! Yeah, I had no clue either until I saw all the winners post. So, I wonder, how do you feel about the BAFTAs?
Random Stuff
- I wonder sometimes what would happen if dogs could really talk. I have a feeling our conversations would go like this:
Me: "Heyah doggie!"
Dog: "food?"
Me: "no, no food."
Dog: "pet?"
Me: "ummmm, sure."
Dog: "Thanks..... no, not there, the other side. No, the other side. NO THE OTHER SIDE!"
*Dog walks away*
Dog: "I'm gonna go drink out of the toilet...."
- I sometimes wonder how often the musical can be claimed dead and claimed to be back before people realize it never really went anywhere, nor is it going to.
- While I know this is a rather mute point since next week marks the arrival of the 23 Days of Kurosawa. I've decided to officially label wednesdays on my blog: anime day. I'm obsessed with the genre, have about 8 shows and who knows how many movies backlogged of them to review. As well I know most of you don't care, so I might as well put it all out there on one day of the week so you all can know what day to avoid if you care that much (*cough* AnswerMVP *cough*) :P.
Alrighty, that about wraps it up. See you all next time!

Thanks for the shout-out! Nice collection of links. I will try to write something about flying pineapple and their impact on transformers avionics later this week :)
HEY! You forgot to post that other link I showed you!
@Castor I'll hold you too it :P
@MovieNut14 Not forgot, so much as opted against because of the time delay. I'll include it sooner or later.
Your early morning enthusiasm always brings a smile to my face. I'm usually so tired in the morning, but your upbeat spirit in these Monday Corner's help me start the week off on a good note.
Keep it up!
