 V for Vendetta In this time of economic uncertainty and political strife, I like to take some time out for myself and not think so much. Hence Hollywood. So, here are my Top 20 favorite movie scenes of all time that simply make me feel better:
20 - At the end of 'Heathers' with bomb soot all over her face and shrapnel in her hair, Wynona Ryder grabs the red hair scrunchie from Heather's hair, puts it in her own and takes over the high school.
19 - 'GI Jane'. When Demi Moore is being beat up by her superior in front of the men but then turns the tables and kicks his ass.
18 - 'Hard Candy' when the teenage girl, played by Ellen Page, convincingly fakes a circumcision on the 30-something child predator who murdered her friend.

Math Skills, Invading Allies & Debate Moderators Last night's debate between John McCain and Barack Obama was a blowout. A blowout by McCain. Of the three Presidential and VP debates this season, I thought this one had the clearest winner. Strangely though, the after-debate talk and the buzz today was that it was a tie or an Obama victory. Did I see the same debate the rest of America did? From the starting round I thought McCain's responses were more clear, more concise and included actual substance. Obama continued his vapid responses with phrases like "we need to cut the cost of healthcare" and "healthcare is a right." A right? Where in the Constitution does it state this is so? I do know that the Government will exercise their right to take more of my money to pay for a program I don't want.
