This is a clip from Child Of Rage, a made for TV movie that aired on CBS in 1992. Interesting enough I have many friends who have the same complex as our little Catherine.
You can watch the whole thing on youtube where you will be treated to scenes of baby brother bashing and dog stabbing.

No Matter What Happens Tim, I Love You
So tonight is the Project Runway finale and for me its the end of an era. The past two years I have slaved I mean diligently worked on the show and last Friday was my final day. Season five by the way is not my fault, blame casting. Currently unemployed with an ever increasing daytime TV addiction/habit I'm feeling nostalgic as I sip nescafe and iron. Kidding! Actually I'm at my friends house playing the Easy ABC music for all Electronic Keyboards: Madonna Edition.
I don't mean to brag, I don't mean to boast but this photo is perhaps one of my most prized and cherished possessions I will keep until the day I die.I'm not at the height of my creative powers/mental acuity otherwise I would create a fantastic story to accompany this image but all I can think is I'm hungry and its lunchtime. However, tonight I will get my second stab with Tim, here's hoping this time he'll respond to my sweet whispers.

Ms. Ross Appreciation Day
My powers of persuasion are nothing compared to wiki's description of her 1987 dance hit Swept Away...
The song talked about how the narrator thought she was in love with a special person only to find out that she had just been "swept away" after catching her lover cheating on her sending her into a rage and panic.
In the music video, directed by Dominic Orlando in Manhattan and on location in Long Island, Ross is seduced by a Frenchman and falls in love with him only to find out, after arriving unannounced in a bar, that he's cheating on her with another French girl in a stylized Apache Dance. She then confronts the man hitting him repeatedly, and later fights with the French girl who ends up being knocked out unconscious by the singer. Later in the video, the Frenchman tries to fight his way back into her life only to have Ross accidentally push him from a lighthouse tower into the water. It was one of Ross' most popular videos, and her first to air on MTV.

Italians Do It Better
October means Halloween which means scary movies! In terms of which country does them best, contrary to popular belief it is NOT Japan but Italy. Yes, that beautiful boot shaped country known as the birthplace of fascism and pizza.

October is the ME Month
An entry from my 6th grade journal for English.
Sept, 13 1993
10 favorite foods
1. Eggrolls
2. pizza
3. candy
4.chips
5.fruit
6.ham
7.bacon
8.hashbrowns
9. mashed potatoes
10. spare ribs
15 years on and I'm still quite fond of pork products. I had no idea I felt so strongly about the standard Asian appetizer during my childhood. They are pretty tasty. Although my list would pretty much be completely different now there is still some truth to this. When drunk I'm pretty sure this is what my palate regresses back to.

Hail, Mary
OMG! I totally had my first apparition experience last night! Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe paid me a visit. At first I was nervous, you know? I worried the world was ending or I was dead or schizophrenic.
But then we totally hit it off! Mary's the best! She was like, " I can't talk for long, I'm really busy, but I just wanted to say hi, and see how you're doing?"
And I said, "Oh I'm good, same old same old, nothing new really. Just work and things."
And she was like, "I miss you so much! Its been soooooo long"
And I said, "Yeah, its been like 12 years since I stopped believing in you"
Then it got silent and a little awkward, so I offered up a feeble sorry and she was like , "Its okay, I understand"
Of course she would be like that! Sigh, Magnanimous Mary. Then I told her about Skype and how she has to get an account, I explained how fun and easy it is. We wrapped it up pretty quick after that, she told me she was voting for Obama and to keep a light on in her honor and that Joseph says hi.

Emotions
Cruising youtube I came across the music video for one of my all time favorite Bee Gees jams and its a beaut. It has an eerie suspenseful vibe given all the smoke, vaseline lighting, doppelganger imagery and Samantha Sang's resemblance to Dr. Robert Elliot
Is it me or are the close ups used in a threatening/seriously frightening manner? As it zooms in to a degree that makes the viewer [or at least me] uncomfortable and Samantha coos "where are you now? Now that I need you? " you can't discern whether she wants to give you a baby kiss on the lips or slash your throat with a razor. I think De Palma would approve.
