I added a bunch of froody buttons to the menu bar thing. Yayfun! Now I feel all cool and such.

I saw “Final Fantasy” last night with the JETS! Yayfun! The plot was painfully annoying (espeically the ending), but the art was so cool that I just wanted to die. ::drools over fantastic CG work:: Just one thing I don’t understand — if the combined 8 spirits were supposed to just cancel out the energy of the Phantoms, why did the Phantom Gaia become a part of the Earth Gaia when it came in contact with the combined spirits? It should have just been completely eliminated. ::sigh:: Silly people not thinking all the way through plotlines….

Obedient to my sister’s wishes, we rented The Emperor’s New Groove for the sleepover. IT WAS HILARIOUS! I absolutely adore that movie. ::cackles:: We also rented Charlie’s Angels and a bunch of Blackadder Episodes, so on monday I’ll be able to make screen grabs of Drew Barrymore’s homage to Harry Potter for the folks at WOFS. Yayfun! ::grooves about happily::

::frowls:: Are my comments not working or something?

::cackles::

Garden Gnomes Gather in Shadowy Operation

STRASBOURG, France (July 12) – More than 100 garden gnomes and other gaudy statues were discovered on Wednesday assembled on a traffic circle in eastern France, a police spokesman said.

Some of the statues were set up to spell out ”Free the Gnomes.” No one claimed immediate responsibility for the stunt, but police said it bore all the hallmarks of the shadowy Garden Gnome Liberation Front.

The kitsch little creatures were reported stolen from numerous gardens around the town of Chavelot overnight and subsequently gathered together on the roundabout.

”It was a bit like a giant creche. Everything had been carefully set up,” a police spokesman said.

The Gnome Liberation Front rose to prominence in the mid- 1990s following a series of raids on gardens to ”free” gnomes and ”return them to the wild.”

The group suffered a setback in 1997 when a court handed its ringleader a suspended prison sentence and fined him for his part in the disappearance of some 150 gnomes.

After briefly going to ground, the Front hit the headlines again in 1998 when it staged a mass ”suicide” of gnomes in eastern France. Last year, the group struck Paris, stealing around 20 gnomes during a night raid on a Paris garden exhibition.

::flails:: Fie upon Warner Brothers! The James and Oliver Phelps website was supposed to premiere yesterday, but WB delayed it. Bah humbug. I wanted to see a clear shot of the twins, for once! (note: they play the Weasley twins. Yay.)

Why can’t I concentrate on my stupid paper?!? RAAAAAUUGH!!!

My room is boiling hot! Isn’t there anything you can do about it?
