Another lame-o post

I will start off by saying that I rented David Byrne's "True Stories" recently and enjoyed it, despite... or perhaps because it was strange. I have playing the True Stories CD in heavy rotation as a result. You've got to love John Goodman belting out "People Like Us". Byrne's unusual character in the movie is great... Most of his conversations with various characters sort of recall conversations one might have late one evening with Jim Musson. A good listener, encouraging most of the time but perhaps patronizing other times (and yet you convince yourself that he is being serious until his facade occasionally cracks). Everyone always looked forward to seeing Byrne's character who I believe was called "Louis". I particularly was fond of a ludicrous... yet true to reality fashion show at the mall. Another great part of the movie was Byrne driving his bright red convertible, obviously in front of a blue screen, with a steering wheel that appeared like it had no steering column.

Here are some more lame surveys... enjoy.

Several of these questions SUCK... because there are no answers I wanted to choose, so I can't say I think it is entirely accurate. They are all very "black & white" and assume that your are either far right or far left... and I'd be curious what the ethics is all about because I've always considered myself quite ethical.

What Your Soul Really Looks Like



You are very passionate and quite temperamental. While you can be moody, you always crave comfort.



You are a very grounded, responsible, and realistic person. People may not want to hear the truth from you, but they're going to get it.



You believe that people see you for how you are, not how you look. But deep down, you know that's not exactly true.



Your near future is still unknown, and a little scary. You'll get through wild times - and you'll textually enjoy it.



For you, falling in love has never been easy. You can only fall for someone who is very patient and persistent.
