Crash
On the TCB in Iraq thing -- the whole thing is a travesty. These boys deserve sloppy blow jobs and if they're young and hot, I'd be happy to do me bit for the war effort.
Ahem...On other matters, did anyone see the movie Crash? To the extent reviewers applauded the film as showing the "shades of grey" of people who are racist, I think that's of shit. Spoiler space:

So even though the Matt Dillon character is a racist prick, his racism somehow becomes more explainable and more in a shade of grey because...his Dad lost some contracts to Minority Owned Businesses 20 years ago and now is having trouble going pee pee on the potty? Or because he saves a woman's life after sexually assaulting her. Um...kay. And we should look more compassionately at that crazy Persian fuck who shot the gun at the 5 year old Latino girl just because some guy in the place he bought the gun a few weeks ago called him "Osama"? If the screenwriter/director wanted his characters to have a subtle mixture of goodness and badness to "make us think twice", they failed. These characters were painted in broad strokes, with little shades of grey. Big disappointment. The movie should have been rewritten by Spike Lee.
