Guitar Hero!

I picked up Guitar Hero yesterday and played the opening set on easy. Three lousy fingers and I was struggling to get three stars. I was trying to remember how to position my wrist to get better coverage of the frets and wow. This was not easy. I would forget to strum, forget to press a note, etc. But... it is a blast! It is definitely going to take some practice on moving fingers and keeping them in the right position.

We watched Pan's Labyrinth last night. I had no idea what this movie was about. The Spanish dialogue really caught me off guard even though we always watch television with closed caption on. The opening really threw me off and I didn't make the connection with the Spanish language and the fact this took place in Spain around the time of WWII. For some reason, I thought that the bad guys were Nazis. Besides all of my misconceptions about the movie, it really was pretty good. I must say that I was expecting more from the fantasy part and was disappointed, but overall good.

Would you rather
Be able to communicate fluently with all animals
or
automatically understand all foreign languages?

Personally, I would rather be able to communicate with all animals if not for the reason to stop the animal uprising.

Keep on Go!

When I first saw the previews for Pan's Labyrinth I thought it would be like another Harry Potter, you know something for kids, but adults could enjoy too. Then I read reviews: from what I hear, not for the under 12 set. Did you enjoy? I would love to speak to animals. Then I would ask all the butterflies to flap their wings just *so*. Then no one would fuck around with me!!

Definitely not for kids, the violence is very graphic. But, the concept and visualization of the concept is very good. The more I think about the movie, I really liked it.

I want to be able to understand all foreign languages. The only thing I need to communicate with an animal is a gun. LOL

I dunno if animals would have all that much to "say" (as we understand it) so i would choose to understand foreign languages.
