a movie plays in my head. Sometimes better than others, and because I don’t know what’s coming next, (Usually) the movie can seem a bit disjointed at first.

The movie of the book “Lords and ladies” by Pratchett sucks, right up to about the 70% mark.

And then all hell breaks loose. Oh, sure, you have to read the first part to get all the shit thats going on in the end, but it drags, and it’s full of the “Don’t do that! Put the chain mail back on” type of shit hat is common in horror movies starring a barely postpubescent Jamie Lee Curtiss.

I’ve always had a fascination for Magrat, because she’s the sort of outcast that I expect I was in younger days. And here, she redeems herself, in ways I would never have expected.

if I could pull the movie out of my head and put it on the screen, you would piss yourself in a combination of fear, hilarity, and stress incontinence. because Magrat does the things you want heroes to do, she strikes without giving the bad guy a chance to get back at her, she fights like a madwoman, and she even intimidates greebo. I haven’t finished it yet, I expect I will around the morning shit time, but wherever it goes, these four or five pages have redeemed it for good and all.

a Passat or Jetta diesel, sound off. I’m thinking of switching to a diesel saloon, and as these are the only ones available (To my knowledge)
