Movies this week

Battleship: 6.8 / 10. Saw it in a cinema in Lelystad where the sound was at acceptable levels. A few plotholes and dumb aliens, though.
28 Days Later: 3.3 / 10. A few good lines. That's all. Part 2 can hardly be worse.
28 Weeks Later: 6.3 / 10. The army suddenly forgot how to set up a perimeter, but at least this wasn't as boring as the first movie.

Last week's movies

Reservoir Dogs: 6.5 / 10. There really is no reservoir scene in there.
Crank 2: 6.4 / 10. A little too over the top for me.
Botched: 5.5 / 10. Noise from outside might've made me a bit more critical, but this is between horror and comedy.

Tales of Yore
HappyFox

The Passion of the Christ: 4.7 / 10. A tale of superstitious apes, their sadomasochistic god, and "the ultimate sacrifice".

KIDS: 5.2 / 10. Dumb wiggers.

Sparkles

Twilight: 5.3/10.

Despite the cold colors, plot holes, cheap effects, and lack of depth, it left me warm & fuzzy.


The first two episodes of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic also leave me warm & fuzzy, but require more thought to keep up with the dialogue and animation, despite the frames lacking texture.


Overall i'd choose Edward over Buffy's Spike, Twilight Sparkle's Spike over Edward, and Twilight Sparkle over Bella.

Glyphs

As mentioned here, "רָע" directly translates to "adversity". Now that first glyph looked like a "y" (meaning "split" according to me, iirc) to me on Facebook, but here it looks like a reversed "u", which means "you". So from that post and my discrete math course in college, i would translate "רָע" as "bad split" (Hebrew reads right to left), which would translate as "be person of, change pair sky(?) me true", iirc.

A little more faith and i would've remembered where and if i posted a list of letter associations, or looked for it. One could spend all spare time on ever expanding words/sentences.

My sealed cards arrived last weekend and the Fat Pack contained at least half its price in one card. See my Facebook.

And the local comic store now sells nice decorated deck boxes, which are cheap compared to their Event Decks (which are 24 euro or so, but the second is half off during the release party which i won't attend because i spent enough time shivering in the cold waiting for public transportation).

No more deck damage by rubber bands!

Fail.

* Sunday my shopping cart overflowed at 4000 items.
* The 1150 item refill cost over 100 USD to ship from two stores alone, making me lose more hours to manually transfer items to a cheaper store because TCGplayer.com's cart tool doesn't do that yet (if you care about the art/edition of the card).
* I spent the last two days at work explaining to dumbass foreigners how to press Alt+F4.
* My reply to my girlfriend(?) got lost due to Last.fm's servers being overloaded again (or i would've pasted details i mailed earlier.

Oh, and from Sunday 'til today ING still fails at online transactions, just like a couple of hardware items at work. Has that solar flare arrived yet? Yup. No video, though. :(

Proofreading

Procrastinating from shopping, i found that unlike all the other Magic: The Gathering decks the past years, the Commander ones do give you your money's worth in cards (more than, even).

If i hadn't spent a week amassing singles in my cart, i'd probably go for one of these. Then again, wouldn't a booster box be better?
