The difference between life and death lies in the eating... Dearest... I wondered how I'd do Without you at my side, I wondered what I'd do With nowhere left to hide. I wondered what I'd do When I saw your face up there, I wondered what I'd do When I don't see you anywhere. I wondered how I'd do Facing up to the truth right now, I wondered how I'd do Looking at your pity somehow. I wondered what I'd do When I saw you not tonight, I wondered what I'd do When the crow calls in the light. I wondered how I'd do When you replied so scornfully I wondered what I'd do If replied so, equally. I wondered how I'd do Because I know you don't understand, I wondered what I'd do When I cry on the bleeding sand. I wondered what I'd do For you don't regret at all, I wondered as you stood Gazing dimly at my fall. Sleep well dearest.

Psyche - Layer 05

"We go down, we do time, We rise up, to fall in line, Real racers don't shed tears, Real racers respect their peers..." Dearest, I just finished watching Fast and Furious. Was it good? It was unbelievable! And to think Vin Diesel produced it! Man is he loaded! ;P The storyline was fantastic, the action was ridiculous and the one-liners were corny. It was a good movie although rottentomatoes gave it a rotten 28% saying, "While Fast and Furious features the requisite action and stunts, the filmmakers have failed to provide a competent story or compelling characters." The story was the only thing I found to be competent, call me whacko. :P I'm a big racing game fan, so I like watching these 'cheesey' movies. My psyche regarding games and movies is more closely 'attached', if that's one way of putting it. I woke up to find mom watching HBO, and it was airing The Making of Fast and Furious . I watched through it, but little did I know ...
