10) Dangerous Liaisons - This movie started me on my affair of the heart with Uma Thurman. Rather, it would be an affair of the heart if she ever bothered to return my phone calls. This movie brings back many fond, boyhood memories. And i was well made too!

9) Fast Times at Ridgemont High - All I can say is: Phoebe Cates, the pool scene. The movie is anastutely observed depiction of highschool life in the US. The movie is not really very sexy overall, more goofy. But let me say again: Phoebe Cates, pool scene.

9 1/2 Weeks - This movie was the best sex-ed class I ever watched. It taught me a lot of things that I’ve neer really needed to know about sex, but with such panache! I was never able to think of Kim Basinger and food in the same way again.

7) Wild Things - Not a great movie by any stretch of the imagination (and there is a disturbing Kevin Bacon nude shot), but Neve Campbell and Denise Richards are fantastically hot. I watched this on a very hot day and the air conditioned theatre was almost as much a pleasure as watching those two actresses frolic together.

6) Basic Instinct - My goodness, the movie starts with a hot sex sceneand then there’s all those shots of Sharon Stone in the nude, and let’s not forget the scene in the interrogation room. Despite numerous plot holes and some sketchy acting, I saw that movie twice in the theatres.

5) The Piano - Okay, call me a mush, but I really liked this movie a lot. The acting and the cinematography are mesmerising. And then there’s the really hot sex scenes with Holly Hunter. Maybe you can tell, but I really dig older women.

4) Bull Durham - Speaking of older women, this classic baseball comedy made me fall head over heels for Susan Sarandon. It helped me really get into baseball for a few years too. Unfortunately, there were no hot moms coming out for my little league games.

3) Requiem for a Dream - This film is exceptional in its beauty and quality. The story is so poignant, so brutal and so sad that it made me sob. In the scene toward the end with Jennifer Connelly, still makes me quiver with excitment and anguish.

2) American Pie - I really don’t need to say much here. It’s a really funny movie (the original that is), but my God, I can’t count the number of sizzling little scenes this movie delivers. High entertainment, I guarantee.

1) Mulholland Drive - This amazing David Lynch movie had me guessing and drooling all the way through. I still have crazy conversations with people who have wildly diverging ideas about what took place in the story, intellectually it’s highly provocative. The only thing everyone (man and woman) can agree on is that Naomi Watts and Laura Elena Harring really steam it up!

If you have any additions to make or corrections or whathaveyou, please send them along. I’d be happy to hash it out with you. And I promise not to drink any Stella beforehand.

As an adult I find that I play a similar game. I don’t play around with optical illusions anymore, rather I think about life and what it seems like from my personal perspective and then I try and get into a stranger’s head and see things from her eyes. First my perspective, then hers. It doesn’t get me anywhere, not really. But it’s a fun game to play. And it can teach you a lot about the nature of illusions. If you’ve never tried it, you should. I warn you though, it can be a bit addictive for some.

This movie has a little bit of everything, from mind-bending stunts, fancy little bullets, car chases, assassins, ass kicking, more ass kicking to a mind-bendingly perfect shot of Ms. Jolie’s butt; not to mention, the movie also delivers some pretty hearty laughs.

But what is the movie about?

It’s about boredom; the boredom that comes with being used as a pawn in other people’s games; the boredom that comes with having given up striving to play the game for yourself and on your own terms. In short, the movie is a revenge fantasy for the man who is no longer young enough to be free, nor old enough to have accepted that with grace.

Boredom. It creeps in. It saps your world, removes all the delicate details, makes everything seem 2D, makes it seem pretend. It’s hard to take anything seriously when you’re bored. When you’re driving along the parkway and you see the red lights of the car ahead it takes a moment to realise that this means you should begin braking; once you’ve begun braking it takes another moment to remember that this is for real, that if you don’t brake or if you don’t brake in time it could mean your death. Death jostles you back to the living. Death is the ultimate jostler. And you just stare at the rear of the car ahead and wonder why you’ve let this boredom creep in, you wonder where it started. It started when you left off experiencing your life and simply began getting by. Boredom begins when you forget to look your lover in the eyes and experience their colour, shape and love - because you are too worried how you are going to pay the rent next month when your bank account is already overdrawn. The sad truth, however, is that you’ll discover something like a lump in your leg and you’ll begin to worry if it’s cancer; then you’ll wonder how the rent ever seemed more important than the arms that could have held you and the eyes that loved you. Thank-fully, the movie doesn’t get so sappy. It sticks to bullets, exploding rats, knife fights and a sublime shot of Angelina Jolie’s astonishingly pert ass. I give the movie 3 Geeks and I hope that it attains cult status, because it really does deserve it.

[IF]

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream–and not make dreams your master,
If you can think–and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ‘em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: “Hold on!”

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings–nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And–which is more–you’ll be a Man, my son!

The guitar isn’t top of the line or anything. It’s a Behringer iAxe 393 and it came in a kit with DVD tutorial, which I have had little patience for, and an amp, which I’ve yet to even plug in. I look at the guitar when it’s sitting quietly in the corner, zippered into its black canvas case, and I feel a mingling of shame and pride; shame that I’ve not yet begun to learn, pride that I just might someday be a really cool guy who can play electric guitar. Yeah, I can see myself. I’m in my little sailboat, which I don’t own yet, and I’m sailing down to Brazil. Along the way, I stop off in Havana and I take my guitar with me into town. I sit on a busy street corner and I begin to play. What will it be? Something by Bright Eyes, like Landlocked Blues? Or will it be something by The Beatles, like I Should Have Known Better? Whatever it will be, the people will stop for a moment to watch the crazy gringo play and maybe a few will toss some coins in the broad brimmed hat that’s resting by my feet. Yeah, that’s a dream of mine.

But then reality sets in.

When am I going to learn to play guitar? How will I ever be able to afford a sailboat, much less sail it down to Brazil? Right now I’m struggling to maintain a full-time temp job at a publishing house. My bills are steep, my loans are enough to make a crocodile cry real tears and I haven’t been sailing since I was sixteen. To make matters worse, I don’t even swim very well.

It’s difficult not to get snared by fanciful dreams. But then, all dreams are fanciful until we make them happen.

WASHINGTON—A report on growing disparities in the concentration of U.S. aluminum-can wealth, released Tuesday by the Department of Commerce, revealed that 66 percent of the nation’s recyclable assets are now held by the poorest 1 percent of the population.

According to the sobering report, the disproportionate distribution of soda-can wealth is greater than ever before, and has become one of the worst instances of economic inequality in the nation’s history. Data showed that over-salvaging of cans by a small and elite group of can-hoarders has created a steadily growing and possibly unbridgeable gap between the rich and the mega-poor.

“Although our nation’s upper middle class actually consumes the most beverages, a staggering percentage of these cans wind up in the hands of a very few,” said economist Cynthia Pierce, who worked as a consultant on the three-year, $14 million government study. “It’s a troubling trend. And as a tiny fraction of the population continues to maintain its stranglehold on redeemable can wealth, it’s a trend that shows no sign of slowing.”

According to Pierce, the study points to a distinct economic advantage for the most can-affluent—those who possess the resources necessary to collect, transport, separate, and accumulate more and more cans than the rest of the population.

“Members of this exclusive group come from exceedingly poor backgrounds and have access to outrageously low levels of education, which makes them much better prepared to reap the benefits of digging around in garbage,” Pierce added.

The report details several key factors involved in the lopsided distribution of container wealth, including aggressive foraging, which leads to higher returns on deposits and a tendency to reinvest can profits in additional redeemables, such as beer. In addition, the report found that those involved in the returnable-gathering industry often minimize financial risk by diversifying between aluminum cans and glass-bottle holdings.

While less than 1 percent of Americans own the domestic rights to a majority of Coca-Cola and Pepsi cans, this same group has also cornered the international market by branching out into such imported container commodities as Fanta and Perrier.

“The typical American spends an average of $65 on beverages for every dollar he or she earns back through redeemable deposits, and the rest of that money goes to the country’s can and bottle barons,” the report stated. “Americans who are at a foraging disadvantage due to over-employment and home ownership therefore have limited access to these discarded commodities, causing the market to unfairly favor those with an exclusively disposables income.”

Perhaps more alarming, the report continued, the can monopoly enjoyed by the poorest 1 percent has been unintentionally buoyed by millions of environment-conscious Americans who leave plastic bags full of recycling in front of their homes, which are in turn preyed upon by enterprising collectors.

“These people were born into a lifestyle, often going back generations, where any can left on the street is seen as their birthright, whether they purchased it or not,” Houston resident Dale Palmer said. “They have the knowledge and ability to get out there and scoop up all the good cans before anyone even knew they were there.”

The vast disparity in can-wealth distribution is difficult to understand for many Americans. Most people, according to the report, cannot relate to the lifestyles of the super-poor, who never have to go to work, pay a mortgage, or struggle to find money for rent.

One canned individual cited in the study is can tycoon Will Dorsey, a 33-year-old Detroit resident who spent his childhood living off the funds collected from his family’s vast can holdings. At the age of 16, Dorsey inherited five carts and dozens of garbage bags overflowing with recyclables when his father passed away unexpectedly one cold December morning.

According to economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman, people like Dorsey, who maintain an ultra-poor lifestyle that is vastly different from the rest of the population, are egregiously out of touch with the everyday economic realities of mainstream America.

“Dorsey is one of those select few who come from old can money,” Krugman said. “They’re just hoarding their assets so nobody else can benefit. And then they parade down the street with their carts full of recycling.”

In the wake of the report’s disturbing findings, many citizens claim to feel exploited by those who convert their discarded property into cash or change without sharing the incredible profits.

“It’s not fair,” Chicago native Melissa Arnold said. “Something should be done to even the playing field.”

In an attempt to mitigate the disparities in soda-can wealth distribution, Congress is currently exploring numerous options, including levying an 80 percent tax on the incomes of those possessing 100 or more refundable containers, with the ultimate goal of eliminating all recycling programs by 2010.

One night after a party, she took me back to her place. The next day, as I left her apartment, I ran into Sue, who lived only three buildings down. I knew it was bad, but up to Sue’s I went. Then things began to get weird. I was sleeping with each girl twice a week and I’d wake up forgetting where I was, worrying about saying the wrong name!
