When shopping Best Buy...
THEY SALE MATCH PRICES LISTED ON THEIR OWN WEBSITE! (& WalMart's & Target's)

So I got half off all of Dr. Who I bought* today! For the first time In my life, I'm collecting a tv series very slowly and completely out of order!

*(Torchwood was more expensive...oddly enough)

Brain Fart
There was a third thing I was going to blog about, but now I totally forgot what it was! :-P

Kayla Sheds & Tears
The tears were mine because I was so happy! We're in the middle of Kayla's summer shedding and I was helping her with head & beard. We were so totally communicating with each other the whole time! I needed to get into a tough spot, she'd move so I could get to it. I needed to even things up and give her some rest, she'd literally move to her opposite side. I needed her to not quit on me and to be patient, she hung in there.

I'm so proud of her! :.-)

It didn't go as beautifully with the arms/legs & tail. But at least we had one beautiful long moment.

My First Tarantino
The house was loud for about a week, so my folks & I decided to "dinner & movie" it off and on that week. "Inglourious Basterds" was one of them. Now I'd never seen a Quentin Tarantino film before, but what I knew of him was "too much sex, violence, and mobseters". Well, I'd forgotten he directed this film until the opening credits.

The sex lasted about 5 seconds, the violence...I've seen worse (but I don't recall seeing scalping before), and there were no mobsters- just Nazis (as if there were much difference there). The comedy was well-balanced with the drama/war and I liked the "chapters" bits. It's based on a fantasy WW2 novel cuz Hitler just didn't die that way- which was a shame.

There should be awards for the cinema set decoration, the music, and if Christoph Waltz doesn't get *at the very least* an Oscar nomination for Col. Hans Landa then we're going to have problems. Brad Pitt may be from Oklahoma but does a damn good job of pretending to be from Kentucky.

Overall, I think it was a great film and I'd buy it. Just close your eyes during the "craftsmanship".
