Okay. So the big day arrived and has almost passed with barely a thought in the back of my mind. Except when the Translink driver of the number Five Robson bus mentioned to me how much he hated Valentine's day. I am not sure why he told me this but it was the second thing out of his mouth after he enquired about whether I was out taking photos today. I suppose he would have figured it out as I was carrying a camera case and tripod along with my other assorted stuff with me.

Anyway, February 14 was a bust for me. Ended up going out to eat Dolsat Bibimbap and then went to see "The 25th Hour". The food was great and the movie was interesting but I would probably give it about three stars on a scale of five. As much as I love Edward Norton, this is one of those movies that doesn't really have to be on a big screen. It would be a good video rental.

While I was at the theatre, I notice a poster for the upcoming movie Willard. Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't this a horror movie in the 70's or 80's? Is this a remake? I think it must be as the huge poster has Crispin Glover and a rat. Isn't Mr. Glover worried about getting a reputation as a remake actor? Charlie's Angels and now this? I don't know about you but I won't be rushing out to see this one.

Speaking of horror movies, you are into them, you might want to check out Horror Diva. While I haven't had much time to look through the whole site, it looks great! I think that you will enjoy it!

I don't want to ramble on too much but I just wanted to say that the Eighties are still influencing me this week. I was thinking as I was walking back along Robson Street about all of the cars that were driving by with their loud stereos. There was a plethora of interesting tunes ranging from Aerosmith to Swollen Members. I must say that I was most amused with the girl in front of the Art Gallery who had "Dude looks like a Lady" cranked up. I had to look twice to see if it really was a "dude" or not!

And so another "Hallmark" day ends. I cannot wait to voice my disapproval of the next card-giving holiday!
