apocalypsos: (dorky costume)

WASHINGTON - A Vietnam veteran who claims Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites) lied about being under fire during a Mekong Delta engagement that won Kerry a Bronze Star was under constant fire himself during the same skirmish, according to the man's own medal citation, a newspaper reported. My favorite line is this one -- Thurlow's records, obtained by the Post under the Freedom of Information Act, include references to "enemy small arms and automatic weapons fire" directed at all five boats in the flotilla that day. *snerk* "Note to self: Get bogus story straight before going to the papers, so as not to look like a dork."

Also, Garden State is finally coming to the Hoffman this weekend. Took 'em long enough. *grumbles, buys tickets*

Oh, and look:

My favorite part of it was Thurlow's refusal to release his own military records, because "they'd use it to discredit him". ::snerk:: Got that right. Freaking liar.

Is this freeipod thing actually real? You really get a free ipod? I want a free ipod.

I love Hoffman too (I'm in Old Town), but I have a special place in my heart for Shirlington. It's just so cheesy and old-fashioned, and when a movie is playing there but not anywhere else, you know it's going to be a good movie. Maybe even a filllllm. :) I saw garden State there last weekend and loved it. :)

I'm in the 7 day period while they verify everything. Sigh. I want my iPod.

Me, too. And I'm horribly impatient, so this is driving me nuts.

Ooh, Garden State is full of goodness. I drove to a far away obscure little movie theater to see it. And I spotted George C. Wolfe in there!

*is theater geek*

If you were a real theatre geek, you'd have also recognized Denis O'Hare, Jackie Hoffman, and Jayne Houdyshell. ;)
