A variety of things

Firstly, to the Warehouse. It sucks that the listing of the line up for Friday night was confused. The Cab was first on the original billing, but third on the most recent billing. Hence, we assumed they would perform third. But no, they were first and I missed my chance to ogle Alex DeLeon's flatironed hair. But Danger Radio, The Main, and Metro Station were excellent.

Secondly, to Steven Spielberg and George Lucas: WTF? Could you have used a more cliched script? I don't think so. The dialogue was wooden, and Cate Blanchett was wasted. Plus, as The Biochemist pointed out, you can't just make a tenured professor take leave indefinitely. Aliens do not fit in with the other Indiana Jones archaeological/historical themes. And knowledge = danger = destruction? Lame. Shia Lebouef as the next Indy? I just don't see it.

Thirdly, I am sunburned. Since the sunburn was acquired in left field as the Orioles beat the Yankees, I will not complain (much). The left field club all you can eat ticket? Totally worth the price.

ETA: Fourthly, I love The Biochemist's new tattoos. And I think she and The Chemist are beautiful together.

Ah well, I'm still going to see my Indy but I'm with you, Shia Lebouef - way too young. How about a man! Which is why I much prefer the Mummy movies with Brendan Fraser and I think I heard there was another coming out. One can hope!

Seeing as how I fell in love with Harrison Ford playing first Han Solo and then Indiana Jones when I was seven, is it any wonder I prefer older men? *sigh* I'm just worried he'll be way too old in this one. Why oh why do they have to dig into a good tihng.

Okay, now I'm just whining.

But now I'm curious about the tattoos.

I read somewhere that another Mummy movie is supposed to be released this summer, this one set in China or the Far East.

Harrison Ford wasn't too old, really, the plot just didn't work for me. And there was too much CGI.

The tattoos: "Dance as if no one is watching" in script on her arm just below the shoulder. AWAKE AWARE BREATHE in graduating text on her upper arm, below the dance tattoo.
