So, I cut my finger. You don’t need to know all the gory details, but it sure looks weird. You see, there was a pretty sizable flap of skin hanging of my finger, but when I removed the makeshift bandage with intent to put in a proper band aid, it had kind of fused back onto my skin. -_- Weird, I know. Anyway, my finger hurts. At least it’s my middle finger, AKA the W key in Halo for PC, so hope for that review either today or tomorrow. Also, I went to see National Treasure: Book Of Secrets last night, at the on base theater. Now, for those of you familiar with military recreational facilities, you know that they suck. And this on is no different; poor screen, no surround sound (what is this, the 60s?) poor seating that often results in a great view of some guys John Deer hat. But it’s cheap and not many people normally come. So, Disney logo rolls. Fireworks, the whole nine yards. The screen looks kind of dark, but the problem doesn’t really come into light (get it… very punny) until the first scene, inside a civil war era tavern. It looks more like a cave; facial features are unrecognizable, and the fireplace in the corner is really the only things visible. So a bunch a of people go up there, along with myself out of curiosity. There’s some old guy talking to the attendant that sound like he knows more about theaters then the actual techs. After a couple of minutes, the movie restarts, bright as day. Woo-Hoo. Then, about twenty minutes into it, the thing blacks out. No sound, no video. It takes them about 5 minutes to fix it, and we miss 5 minutes of the movie. This on its own wouldn’t have been that bad… if it wasn’t for the fact that it happen 6 more times. Yeah. So, everyone in the theater got their money back in the form of coupons. Anyways, I can’t wait until the goddamned theater companies finally break like the skeletons they are, and I can go out and buy a “movie box” and watch new releases the day they hit theaters at home.
