Interesting note left on the door today… here it is, word for word.

Merry Christmas – You’re Being Evicted

Villagio has decided to sell these poroperties and turn them into condo’s – and sell you out in the process. This is not a Joke. Your 30 – 60 day eviction notice will be on your door in days. Several people have talked to the front office, Villagio is telling everyone a different story – they are lying. They care about the money – not you – and will tell you anything to keep you away.

Don’t settle for 60 days notice – that is not enough time to reorganize your lives after they toss you out on such short notice. REMEMBER – since the fire, there are a shortage of apartments in San Diego. Plus, how will you find a moving truck when 300 apartments will have to move on the same weekend. How will you find movers?

You CAN do something.

• Get the city involved. Call BRIAN MAIENSCHEIN on the city council @ 858.673.5304 and let him know that this isn’t fair.
• Get an attorney. Join together and let Villagio know that you won’t be treated like a commodity.

I guess we’ll see how legit it is…

I’m tired of fighting, I’m tired of fighting;

Fighting for a lost cause.

Yeah, just finished the ending. Yeah. It’s definitly… dumb. The ending sort of follows the Italian proverb, “At the end of the game, the king and the pawn go back in the same box.”

I doubt I’ve convinced many of you to watch this last movie, so I’ll go ahead and spoil the ending. Michael Corleone dies quietly, old and alone. Thats not the big surprise, though.

Dammit, I feel so… cheated. I’ve wanted to buy the Trilogy on DVD for quite some time, but I’m sure as hell not going to now that I know how bad the third one is. Maybe I’ll buy the first two and then wait for Tres or Melinda to become Flash Pro’s and have one of them make a remake. I’ll write the script, and we’ll call it…. Godflasher! Ok, so the title needs work…

Did you know, on IMDb, The Godfather is the #1 rated film?

Hmmm. Guess that fits.

Godfather 1 is Fantastic.

Godfather 2 is very good.

Godfather 3 is… well… terrible.

Like so many other things in life, I want it to be good. But like the Ramones, Friday’s Cheesecake, the three Foundation novels written after Asmiov’s death, and GTK+ on Windows it simply is not as it should be.

It’s just bad. Its like a parody… or a bad cartoon spinoff. This is the worst role I’ve ever seen Al Pacino play. Every third line makes me wish I could bring myself to turn it off.

Ok, I did turn it off.

Trapped in a box of tremendous size; It distorts my vision, it closes my eyes.

Attracts filthy flies and pollutes in the skies; It sucks up our lives and proliferates lies

Trapped in a box.
