heart like whoa, llama be love

Do you watch vids? Do you, like, follow YouTube? This is an honest question: it has been brought to my attention that you might not. Well then this is a link for you.

You know how in 1997 we were all like, well, at least we know there'll never be a Titanic sequel? I present to you: Titanic Two: The Surface, coming this summer. (If you don't have a fast enough internet connection to watch the preview, we'll look it up the next time you're at my place.)

I saw Inside Man tonight and loved it. No surprise there. There are few actors in Hollywood right now who are anywhere near as good at what they do as Denzel Washington is. And Spike Lee is one of the only US directors who, throughout his career, has consistently mattered. If you give me any credit for knowing anything about movies, accept these subjective statements of mine. One thing I really like in a movie is a good beginning, and the beginning of this movie is fly.

The kids I tutor get knock-knock jokes in their homework packets, and they like to read them to me. (They usually have to have me whisper the hard words to them first, V. cute.) I now present to you Jacob's favorite joke of the week:
Knock Knock!
Who's there?
Moose!
Moose who?
Moose be love!

It came on a page of moose and llama jokes, and sometimes he gets them mixed up, in which case the punchline of the joke is: Llama be love!

In honor of Jacob, here's a NYC knock knock joke from Overheard:
Teen girl #1: So I gave her her piece.
Teen girl #2: You gave her herpes?
Teen boy #1: No, she gave her her piece.
Teen girl #1: Of chocolate.
Teen girl #2: Ha, ha, ha! "Gave her herpes." Her piece.
Teen boy #1: Herpes chocolate!
Teen girl #2: Knock, knock.
Teen boy #1: Who's there?
Teen girl #2: Herpes.
Teen boy #1: Herpes who?
Teen girl #2: Her piece of chocolate!...Hey, Milton! Knock, knock!
Teen boy #2: Who's there?
Teen girl #2: Herpes!...Milton, you have to say, "herpes who?"!
Teen boy #2: No.
Teen girl #2: You suck, Milton!
Teen girl #1: No, you suck.
Old woman: That's true.
