frimer, the nephew in hot water, and the bearer of "bad vibes"
I realized that in time of urgency and trouble, when people gives you booze, and wine, and chatter... these are frimers.
I see how its totally useless for this young man. Instead of going to stand up on his own feet, he putters around - its been one and a half month, and goes on and on with the frimer - who is an uncle of his. This uncle, in retirement age... drinks champagne, yaks it up. What will this do for the not-so-young nephew? I think its poison. I dont want to see this.
He is already old, a old geaser retired. What does it cost him to drink his way out ? On the other hand, who wants to be responsible for real advice? Drinking your way out is the smart solution. But as for the nephew, I fear for him. The longer he stays their playing this bloat up game, the worst it is for him. He has already lost important time.
I dont want to see this.
Much more, much more bad times to come for him, and I dont want to be there.
I have spoken and nobody wants to hear it, to them, its just "bad vibes".
Of course i will stop.

cannes 2008
a friend just left for Cannes. I understand how difficult it is for actors and producers. He told a joke: whats the difference between a coconut and a producer? Well, you can get a drink out of a coconut. :)
I visited a friends apt, she asked me if i would like to help her rent it to some people. Its big, everything is dark (it was at night.) and large dirty hallway carpets, its looks gloomy. I didnt say that to her. But, it needs an entire renovation! She seem to not see this aspect. Her last name is that of an aristocrate.
Feel sad looking at this apt, such a big apt, and so run down. I wouldnt want to live in such a place. The ambiance is that of going down hill.
Cannes also, I have no feeling for it this year. :) I also read that there is no Chinese film in competition this year. Wonder why.

27dresses
27dresses 1* (not worth wasting your time)
What a bad movie, cliche, no detail, false sentiments, the male lead has a most awful unsexy voice, the main lead is so sweet and pretty next to Tess (the flousy blond sister) who could be a nice contrast, but everything is off scale, maybe there is one solid message the director wanted to say, the older sister didnt have to take care of everyone, the younger one had a hard time too... booo hooo hooo... maybe the director is in the position like the younger sister, its a message to her real life older sister? Cant see why this is about the only dialogue thats not stale dish rehashed quick and easy, tasteless. The 27 dresses are not even shown up close, no fashion detail, the writer is not convincing... Everything is just so cheap and off the shelf. Its amazing that its even showing in a cinema!!
Why do i write about this stupid movie? Well, to show you that for some reason, some things distributed are really terrible. How did they get the money to make it to begin with? :) That is the interesting question.

"Hello", bai lings blog
Discovered Bai Ling has a blog, she sends it via blackberry, just a snapshot, or a few words, with pics of herself. I like her blog, its herself, she shares her life. Thats great. Much better than the dancing flighty people i have met - she shows an intelligence thats without complications. Cheerful, and no heavy intellectualism. Shes good. Suddenly whether she is well dressed or worst dressed or nipple slip or whatever, its not important. She is alive.

L'un contre l'autre , les Citronniers, story telling, sl role playing, auto sufficiency in sl
It is funny to read how other people tell about an event that you were part of.
I read Five March's blog sl lessons.
Reminds me that everybody sees things from their own perspective, because that is the angle which gives meaning to their context. The context is the show that they set up, and the event with meaning is the cherry.
So, if you want to give meaning beyond any context. You must do-it-yourself.
Others can only do it from their focus, for their own usefulness, their own perspective.
:)
Next, i would like to make some Chinese clothes.
Now, where could i get a sample template? Could it be done entirely in sl, without recourse to a text book in rl?
Is the learning entirely in sl possible? So far, i have not yet consulted the available books in rl, because I want to stay in sl to acquire sl knowledge.
Who would be willing to spend time to chat and show etc. and what could I offer in return in sl? sl money? rl time? rl friendship?
What are the elements of sl and how self sufficient can this world be.
It is becoming a role playing game. Because true living is best done in rl. :)
Movies seen:
L'un contre l'autre : german film : 3*
about a policeman who is about to get a promotion, but wants to not-get-it. He suffers beating from his wife, his children are on his side... but for some strange reason, he reveals his "secret" to a competitor, who plays a turn and kicks him out of the team, takes over his post...
as he returns to his home, promotion removed (as had wished secretly) his wife beats him again - he suddenly strikes back, beats his wife back (unexpectedly). In the end, both fell down on the carpet ... trying to recover from this exasperated situation...
This movie has received great admiration from critics and viewers. Subject is unusual, and i am trying to understand what are all the details... it feels realistic and human. But I dont understand who this policeman is. The wife, i could understand she is a classic person who wants to see life move upwards, but the man, i dont understand. A sensitive person is not necessarily someone who wants to be a loser...
Or, his sensitivity, his capacity for tolerance of outrageous actions, to cover for the other could only be visible in face of great violence?
Like, to show power, you must have resistance. The greater the resistance, the greater the capacity to absorb is shown?
Why do people give this film such a great rating?
What do they see in this movie?
Les citronniers 2.5*
about a woman standing up to the Minister of Defense - her new neighbour - who comes onto her garden steals the lemons, and orders the trees to be chopped down so no bad guys could hide there.
One handsome guy in a coffeee shop with a very sculptural face - a middle east persons face - the other details are fine.
hmmm. Not likely, i am not convinced of this movie. Anybody else would have just taken a compensation package and leave.
If i were the minister of defense, i probably would have ordered her trees cleared too. It is not a suspicion of danger of bad guys hiding, its real.
And its only a few lemon trees, there are tons of lemon trees elsewhere. Why make all this fuss. Take the compensation package and move on.
