It happened in Narita international airport. I saw this in morning news.

A lot of people were gathering around, screaming. Everybody has camera, and they took pictures. Sometimes it happen in Japan, but this time, this is a special moment. This is for June 29.

Check this, then you will know that reason.

His name is Sam Bicke. He is furniture's salesman. He is too shy, so his sales ability is not good. He has an estranged wife and children. Sometimes he is paying a little alimony.

But she dislike husband and she said "I don't wanna see you."

He is lonely.

He watched Richard Nixon in TV news. He hated governments. His bad luck, his solitude, his state........He felt anger and got desperate. He put the blame upon governments.

Then, he decided....

Yeah, of course you know about this. We know history. He tried it, but as a result, he couldn't assassinate Nixon. This movie is not like "Jackal". This movie is about lonely guy. Sean Penn as Sam Bicke. As an actor's ability, he is perfect as much as "Mystic River" and "21 grams". Also, Naomi Watts's role is his wife, she changed her hair to black, she was cool like ice.

Ken V, if you haven't seen this movie, check this ASAP.


This is a based on true story.

I'm finding that I'm enjoying Conspiracies as much as The Tomb & Legacies.

Having Abe Grossman in the opening pages immediately put the reader into familiar territory & allowed the story to really take-off.

Watched this last night. Bless the FF button. Had it's moments but was sloooooow. Too slow with too many too-familiar elements to recommend.

I just watched this documentary and must say that I was shocked at some of the events that transpired during this "stand-off" which I had not seen before. This documentary follows the BATF and FBI assault on the Branch Dividian "compound" back in 1993. It contains footage from the congressional hearings and from video taken by the Davidians themselves. Most interesting (and damning to the government) is footage taken by a forward looking infrared (FLIR) camera from a plane overhead. (Ken, if you haven't seen this footage, check this movie out.) This video footage clearly shows evidence of gunfire which contradicts direct testimony from many of the agents and administration officials given during the hearings. Its really a disgusting display of the unrelenting power of the government.

Beware: there are some very horrific shots of the carnage and corpses.

I've been waiting since last fall for this season of Nip/Tuck and I just read Season 3 won't start until September! That sucks. In general, summer TV is no good, but that show is fantastic. I am really looking forward to it, but it's a longer wait than I expected . I guess that means more Beauty and the Geek and Dancing with the Stars...naw, that means more reading!

I think it would be great if members of this board could just indicate what books they "need" and we could do private sales that way. In a way it would be like private adoptions. I can't imagine letting my extra copy of The Keep, or WWW, for example, be adopted by just any mope who can win on eBay.

In that vain... I "need" a signed edition of Sibs

NUTS! Riverside, Califnordia is already sold out!

Ken V.

Did anyone else watch this new show on Fox tonight? It's about a FBI team in LA who try to stop serial killers. So far, the show looks to have a lot of promise. The one thing that will kill it quickly however is if it becomes a "serial killer of the week"-type show.

It does seem that the creators (one of which is Tim Minear who has been a part of all the Whedon shows such as Buffy, Angel and Firefly) are creating a lot of backstory for these characters with a lot to be revealed in the coming episodes. Very moody, very dark, I hope this show lasts... assuming of course the story stays interesting.

But with my luck, as is usually the case with shows I like, it will be cancelled.
