Swords, drunks, and a better president…

After work last night I went out to see Takeshi Kitano‘s remake of Zatoichi. It was a long day at work, but the trailer convinced me to go. Damn, what a good movie. “Beat” Takeshi is cool, as always (go rent Brother), the violence is stylized to the point of high camp, and the song-and-dance number at the end just crowns it off as a great piece of filmmaking.

Nemo sent me a link to The Uppity Drunk, a feature of Modern Drunkard magazine.

It’s true sir, I AM going to kick your ass. With ass-kicking FACTS!

Brilliant, simply brilliant.

Finally, Walt Thiessen announced that he has produced a documentary about Michael Badnarik. There’s links to a mirrors in the blog post.

Tomorrow’s the first day of law school orientation. Wish me luck.

Yours truly,

Mr. X
