Cat Drinking Water

I like youtube cat videos...not really because of the videos themselves but because of the comments people make about them. The title is also kind of funny

Your cat isnt dumb. it just so happens that it likes the water in paw flavor. but seriously just because it is drinking water like that doesnt mean that its dumb.

The cat isn't dumb! My cat does this as well, but hes really smart and actually knows how to fetch with me. My cat will drink out of a faucet but not out of a bowl. It is odd, but not in any way dumb.

I've seen cats drink almost like that. We had one who liked to 'test' the water and then drink it normally. You should get her a pet fountain. Cats are more apt to drink running water. It could save her from kidney problems.

You fucking smart kitty, grew up seeing your mama drinking from a cup using hands huh..






I don't know why this guy has to swear so much but this is kind of funny. Seriously, he swears a lot. Like 2 weeks worth of cuss words in 3 minutes.

Super Cute Puppy!

Lisztomania

These kids are awesome. Apparently they've performed with a bunch of famous artists. For example, they are the chorus on several of the songs on the Passion Pit album Manners.

Where to go this spring break...

The other day I was picking up the lady friend at UW when I grabbed the school paper and saw that they had a 'Places to Go for Spring Break' section. Here is of the destinations they mention.

Pullman, Wash.

Imagine a spring break in Cancun, Mexico. Now replace the beaches with wheat fields, lower the temperature by about 60 degrees and quadruple the amount of drunk college students; this is spring break in Pullman. Located approximately 3,000 light years from civilization, Pullman is a great choice if you want to get away from it all this spring break, and your definition of "it all" includes people with decent hygiene and place aren't 10 minutes away from Idaho. Pullman is also home to Washington State University. If nothing else, a trip here will make you remember why you go to the UW and forget why you had so much faith in humanity in the first place.

2010 Oscar Predictions

The 2010 Oscars are tonight and you need to know who is going to win. Lucky for you, I am here. The Academy Awards are a bit different this year as they have expanded the pool of best picture nominees from five movies to ten. With this expansion of the pool I have had to watch a lot more movies that I never had interest in. Thanks Oscar, your a dick.

Of the films that are nominated for some award these are the ones I have seen. I am not going to be doing all of the technical awards because let's face it, nobody really cares about those.

Avatar
District 9
An Education
The Hurt Locker
Inglourious Basterds
A Serious Man
Up
Up In The Air

Some notable films I have not seen
Precious: That movie just looks way too depressing
The Blind Side: This film also never interested me, the story just seemed too inspirational.

Alright, time for the predictions...

Best Film:

Avatar: There is no way this should be nominated for anything other that technical awards. The story really isn't that good. Visually, it is absolutely amazing however.

District 9

An Education

The Hurt Locker: This is definitely my pick to win best picture. The Hurt Locker is an amazing war story that actually seems real and doesn't sensationalize everything. The acting is great as well.

Inglourious Basterds

A Serious Man

Up

Up In The Air

Precious: This movie has been getting a lot of press and the Academy does love stories like this but I don't think it will win.

The Blind Side

Best Director

Kathryn Bigelow 'Hurt Locker': I think it is possible that Kathryn could win this but I think Quentin will win.

James Cameron 'Avatar'

Lee Daniels 'Precious'

Jason Reitman 'Up In The Air'

Quentin Tarantino 'Inglourious Basterds': I think this and original screenplay is where Quentin will win his Oscars for Basterds.

Best Actor

Jeff Bridges 'Crazy Heart'

George Clooney 'Up In The Air': The academy loves George Clooney and this movie (for some reason, Up In The Air was good but not great) so George could get one here.

Colin Firth 'A Single Man'

Morgan Freeman 'Invictus': I haven't seen Invictus but Morgan Freeman was born to play Nelson Mandela.

Jeremy Renner 'The Hurt Locker': Jeremy was amazing in this film and he certainly deserves the Oscar. This is my pick.

Best Actress

Sandra Bullock 'The Blind Side': Sandra seems to be the favorite for this so I am going to pick her although of all these movies 'An Education' is the only one I've seen.

Helen Mirren 'Last Station'

Carey Mulligan 'An Education': Carey was pretty good in an awful movie. Here is 'The Education,' moderately cute but really smart 16 year old falls in love with a 30 something guy. They hang out and then he proposes. She then finds out he is married and breaks up with him. Oh crap! She dropped out of school and ruined her chances of going to Oxford because of him! No worries, she goes back and talks to her English teacher. After some encouragement and a montage of her reading some books she gets into Oxford. The end. Now what would have been cool is if she and the old guy were fine and he wasn't cheating. They could end the movie with her and him celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. That would have been better.

Gabourey Sidibe 'Precious'

Meryl Streep 'Juilie & Julia': The Academy loves whatever Meryl does so she could win this instead of Sandra.

Best Supporting Actor

Matt Damon 'Invictus'

Woody Harrelson 'The Messenger'

Christopher Plummer 'The Last Station'

Stanley Tucci 'The Lovely Bones'

Christoph Waltz 'Inglourious Basterds': Christoph has to win this. He was absolutely amazing in this film and unbelievably creepy. He also spoke four different languages in the film.

Best Supporting Actress

Penelope Cruz 'Nine'

Vera Farmiga 'Up In The Air'

Maggie Gyllenhaal 'Crazy Heart'

Anna Kendrick 'Up In The Air': I thought her performance was really good in this film but I don't think she will win.

Mo'nique 'Precious': I think this might be where Precious gets an award. Again, I haven't seen this film so my opinion isn't worth much here.

Best Animated Feature Film

Coraline

Fantastic Mr.Fox

The Princess and the Frog

The Secret of Kells

Up: Up is the only one of these that is also nominated for Best Picture so this is a no brainer. Up is a great film that I really liked. I really hope this wins. Another reason it will win, it is a Pixar film and they run the animation department.

Best Original Screenplay

The Hurt Locker

Inglourious Basterds: I think this is another one that Quentin wins, there are a lot of good films here but this film is on a whole different level.

The Messenger

A Serious Man: I watched this film and I didn't get it. I usually like Cohen brother films but this one just didn't really make sense. There wasn't an ending either.

Up: Loved this film!

Best Adapted Screenplay

District 9: This was a really good film but it isn't going to win anything. On that note, if you haven't seen this film, watch it.

An Education

In the Loop

Precious: I think Precious is a lock for this one.

Up In the Air

Best Cinematography

Avatar: This is Avatar's award, cinematography and every effects award.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

The Hurt Locker

Inglourious Basterds

The White Ribbon


So those are my picks for some of the main categories. There is a fair amount of difference between the best films and the actors. Most of the nominated actors are not in any of the best pictures. Maybe this was a ploy by the academy to make people watch even more films.
