Ladder 49

Saw "Ladder 49" last night @ AFI Silver w/a slew of firefighters. This is a very moving picture. A little predictable @ certain points but overall, a movie I would recommend to a friend. I thought that everyone was well cast and churned out star-power performances! It's good to see Travolta doing his roll as a fire chief justice (I'm still trying to get the taste of his performance in "the Punisher" out of my mouth) in this movie. Joaquin Phoenix's character was very blue collar, very likeable as a true firefighter who was out to save as many individuals as he could. His character reminded me of a saying I saw while I was in the military, "Ain't no hero, ma'am, just doing my job."

White House says it is creating 'very large' dossier on Washington Post journalist and others.

    This is not okay.   For the record, I hate the phrase "This is not okay", but this is NOT okay.  To be fair, I'm certain that he's not the first POTUS to create dossiers on, well, anyone.  But this is an intimidation tactic, plain and simple.  I mean, POTUS is pretty fucking lazy, so there may not be any dossiers.        'Cept, his folks will have to do whatever he tells them to do either because it's their job or because of the allure of power...and maybe out of some sick form of civic duty.        As if gathering info of journalists in order to shut them up is patriotic.        Last I checked, it was the very antithesis of the American way .      November 2nd can't get here soon enough.         This is not a myth, POTUS.
