Art and Movies

I caught two great movies last week. First was the new Harry Potter movie at IMAX in 3D. If you can catch it in 3D do it! The last big scene is amazing. Second movie was Ratatouille which was the most amazing animation ever and wonderful story- Evan liked it too!

I was driving in the car today and heard this poem read by the author (hear it here) and it caught my attention. I'd reccomend reading it out loud. Its dark and funny and I just though I would share.

Fear

I fear the vast dimensions of eternity.
I fear the gap between the platform and the train.

I fear the onset of a murderous campaign.

I fear the palpitations caused by too much tea.

I fear the drawn pistol of a rapparee.

I fear the books will not survive the acid rain.

I fear the ruler and the blackboard and the cane.

I fear the Jabberwock, whatever it might be.

I fear the bad decisions of a referee.

I fear the only recourse is to plead insane.

I fear the implications of a lawyer's fee.

I fear the gremlins that have colonized my brain.

I fear to read the small print of the guarantee.

And what else do I fear? Let me begin again.
