I wanna see Pirates of the Caribbean again.

*mope*

This is a movie that needs to be shared.

The worst part is, so much of the comedy is physical (thank you Johnny Depp!) that I can't even compile the best quotes!

Johnny Depp rocks. Not many men can nance, wriggle *and* pull off that much eye make-up and still look really really cool. ;)

Houston, we have a problem...

Err, yeah. Been staring blankly at the screen for fifteen minutes. Not a good sign.

It's like I don't really have the intellectual staying-power for this kind of work anymore. Even three pages a day is beginning to be pretty hard. I used to be able to translate a paper like this in about 72 hours when I was still working on other things, and now it's going to take me twice as long just by itself.

In other news, NAFTA is bad for agriculture and all of Canadian industry, too. You'd think people would have noticed it twenty years ago when they first started negociating free trade, or maybe someone would have noticed it in the subsequent twenty years, but apparently it's only our learned author here who seems to hold the light. :P

(Don't get me wrong: I'm not a huge fan of NAFTA myself, I'm just a little annoyed at this poncy little guy who's coming out with these huge declarations about NAFTA being evil, with very few facts to back them up. But then, I'm just the translator: I'm not paid to criticise the text.)

I'm going to go see another movie tonight as a reward. Any suggestions out there? :)
