Today my daughter, BeckyRose1998, is going to be in a little skit at her school: A comedy based on Jekyll and Hyde. I wish I had a camera phone so I could show it. Despite being a teenager, I couldn't have asked for a better daughter (well, usually, LOL)

So, I just watched The Last Circus (Balada triste de trompeta). It was quite the experience; heavy, grotesque, emotional. This is why I like foreign movies.

My favorite foreign movies were both French: Tres Hommes et Le Couffin and Au Revoir, Les Enfants. The first was the original Three Men and a Baby and was funny and the second was a WWII movie about hiding Jews from the Nazis- very sad.

Salp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Salps have a complex life cycle, with an obligatory alternation of generations. Both portions of the life cycle exist together in the seas—they look quite different, but both are mostly-transparent, tubular, gelatinous animals that are typically between 1 and 10 centimetres (0.39 and 3.9 in) tall. The solitary life history phase, also known as an oozoid, is a single barrel-shaped animal that reproduces asexually by producing a chain of tens to hundreds of individuals, which are released from the parent at a small size. The chain of salps is the aggregate portion of the life cycle. The aggregate individuals are also known as blastozooids; they remain attached together while swimming and feeding, and each individual grows in size. Each blastozooid in the chain reproduces sexually (the blastozooids are sequential hermaphrodites, first maturing as females, and are fertilized by male gametes produced by older chains), with a growing embryo oozoid attached to the body wall of the parent. The growing oozoids are eventually released from the parent blastozooids, then they continue to feed and grow as the solitary asexual phase, thus closing the life cycle of salps.

The alternation of generations allows for a fast generation time, with both solitary individuals and aggregate chains living and feeding together in the sea. When phytoplankton is abundant, this rapid reproduction leads to fairly short-lived blooms of salps, which eventually filter out most of the phytoplankton. The bloom ends when there is no longer enough food to sustain the enormous population of salps.

(warning, swear words ahead :p)

haha!! I finally decided to check out a textfile with oooold logins of mine, and came across one for this site: wtf: main. apparently I had an account since 2004, huh, and the forums go back to 1999?! I don't recall ever using that site, but I like it in a weird way. it reminds me of the good old times before facebook, "google products", and wordpress everywhere. it also makes my eyes hurt but hey.

I use to belong to a forum with the word "moon" in it I believe. At least I remember the members being referred to as "Moonies". It was just random stuff and fun. I can't remember the name of it at all and wish I could because it would be neat to check it out and see if any of the names strike familiar.
