(a) I am alternating between watching the David Cook edition of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and Manchester United tonking AC Milan. I was disposed to think well of David Cook on account of denyeverything1's tireless advocacy, but what a good fellow!

Extreme Makeover -- still horrifying and yet compulsively watchable emotional porn. The musical cues alone make me think Murray Gold is a model of subtlety and minimalism. There is a man called Paul Schwinghammer on this. I bet he had a fun adolescence.

(b) Work still crap but a bit more manageable now that Tuesday is over. Just... meh. Half the people I like took the redundo.

(c) Borrowing from vonnie_k, the movie meme: 15 quotes from movies I love. Can you guess what they are?

1] I'm a dead man, and buggered to boot

2] "I had a little thing for her at the time."
"I can imagine, yeah."
"Don't think she remembered me, to be honest."
"That is one of the side-effects of Rohypnol." [In The Loop ♥ guessed by vonnie_k]

3] It is so difficult to make a neat job of killing people with whom one is not on friendly terms. [The glorious Kind Hearts and Coronets guessed by paratti]

4] I feel like a pig shat in my head

5] It's all right, Captain. We always knew you were a whoopsie. [Stardust guessed by ravurian]

6] This is the universe. Big, isn't it. [A Matter of Life and Death guessed by vonnie_k]

7] Please let me keep this memory, just this one. [Groundhog Day guessed by spectralbovine, vonnie_k, cazling]

8] 'Purple Rain'?
No.
'Sign o' the Times'?
Definitely not.
The 'Batman' soundtrack?
Throw it.
'Dire Straits'?
Throw it.
[Shaun of the Dead guessed by fourteenlines]

9] What if there is no tomorrow? There wasn't one today [Groundhog Day guessed by comice, spectralbovine, vonnie_k]

10] French writer. Total loser. Never had a real job. Unrequited love affairs. Gay. Spent 20 years writing a book almost no one reads. But he's also probably the greatest writer since Shakespeare. Anyway, he uh... he gets down to the end of his life, and he looks back and decides that all those years he suffered, Those were the best years of his life, 'cause they made him who he was. All those years he was happy? You know, total waste. Didn't learn a thing. So, if you sleep until you're 18... Ah, think of the suffering you're gonna miss. I mean high school? High school-those are your prime suffering years. You don't get better suffering than that. [Little Miss Sunshine guessed by katcorvi]

11] You're wonderful, in a loathesome sort of way

12] Don't fight it son. Confess quickly! If you hold out too long you could jeopardize your credit rating. [Brazil guessed by laurashapiro]

13] To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people! I've known sheep that could outwit you. I've worn dresses with higher IQs [A Fish Called Wanda guessed by eve11]

14] I still do believe in God, old man. I believe in God and Mercy and all that. But the dead are happier dead. They don't miss much here, poor devils. [The Third Man guessed by vonnie_k]

15] Nobody does vegetables like me.[Tootsie guessed by ropo]
