Womyn's Mysteries (TMI)

Well, the update. I think a lot of the irritation I was having was the KY. Something in it seems to irritate me that surgilube and the stop and shop generic don't. That's just helping so much. I gave up on the #1 and I'm now just doing the 2 and 3. I hit 7" with #2 this morning. So I guess depth isn't bad. It's getting easier. I will probably take the long weekend and try for #4. I'm afraid that one might involve some damage and such and think I'll do it friday so I can take the time to really relax and I'll have the weekend to recover if I have any bleeding.

Oh yeah, thanks for the recommendation on Liquid Silk. It felt great at the toy store. Just perfect, but $20/container is a bit much when I'll go through it in about a week and can get a generic for $4.

A Hate Letter to George Lucas

So for once tivo has failed us and there's just, junk. I do a little bit of surfing and come across A&E's Star Wars: Empire of Dreams. It's a mostly self-serving promo, more for the legend of The Galactic Gasbag than for his latest installment.

But then they get to the assembly of the movie (would never have happened without King George, He had to fire the editor and do it himself, all while holding off the evil studio execs)... But there it is. An image that I haven't seen since the second release, a few months before the release of The Empire Strikes back.

The music starts...

STAR WARS
It is a period of civil war...

Did you notice it in it's Glory? But even more, in it's beautiful simplicity? Not just what is there, but what isn't?

They showed the original crawl. The real one. The crawl so many people have told me didn't exist. The one that gives the name of the picture as what it was: Star Wars. And which does not include the words of the First Forgotten Sin "Episode IV: A New Hope." The name of the film is Star Wars. Just Star Wars thank you. No episodes. No Joe Campbell nonsense. Just a really really incredible science ficiton film based very heavily in old serials and classic SF novels.

And there followed so many original effects that he's "fixed." And they're wonderful. And it all reminded me once again of how much I love that film and how much I resent George Lucas for destroying it and stealing my childhood.

Well, I'm off to watch The Star Wars Christmas Special. I notice they didn't include any of those choice moments of drama in their retrospective.

Oh yeah, I hate you George
