Bluebottles

Two of 'em. Doing laps of the room. There's a hole the relative size of Canada in the wall but can they find it? No. I've tried shooting them but it's making a mess of the place. Plus I think that last shot accidently hit a sheep-dog working in the field across the way. Poor thing. Collie-atteral damage.

Big blue flies.

Ah. Second question: why is there a hole the size of Canada in your wall?

(and I’m suddenly having Python flashbacks - remember the mosquito hunter skit? “I love animals. That’s why I like to kill them.”)

The “relative size of Canada”, as in to the fly it’s quite a big gap to hit. Rather than, say, the window.

    Does exactly what it says on the (comic book) tin. Loved it.
  • Little Miss Sunshinerating
    Very funny, disturbing (the beauty pageant) and completely messed up -- but in a good way.
  • Laputa: Castle in the Skyrating
    Story great, characterization a little on the weak side -- though the big robots are cool.
  • Porco Rossorating
    Stylish, funny, exciting.
  • Grave of the Firefliesrating
    Very sad, which was a little unexpected since I didn't know much about it before watching it. Can be a little too slow in places though, otherwise it's very good.
  • Nausicaä of the Valley of the Windrating
    The story can get a little dense at times what with the various factions, but still really enjoyable, inventive and engaging.
  • X-Men: The Last Standrating
    Opportunity, talent, money - all blown. Over 3 films X-Men has hinted of something great that could have been, this last one says "No, sorry - not going to happen". Bah.
