R.I.P.

After 5 years my old cell phone finally bit the Big One, but I sure had fun using it to take all those photos for this blog. They wanted to give me a fancy new phone, but I specifically desired a cheapo cell with cheapo photo technology so that my one-cylinder brain could handle it.

Favorite Movie Quotes: Julius Caesar (1970)

Favorite Movie Quotes: JFK

"Well that's the real question, isn't it? Why? The how and the who is just scenery for the public. Oswald, Ruby, Cuba, the Mafia. Keeps them guessing like some kind of parlor game. Prevents them from asking the most important question: Why? Why was Kennedy killed? Who benefited? Who has the power to cover it up? Who?"
