July 3, 2003

Eli Wallach (seeing soldiers in grey and thinking they're Confederate): "God is with us because he hates the Yanks too!"
Clint Eastwood (seeing them brush the dust off their blue Union uniforms): "God's not on our side because he hates idiots also!"
--The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Dreamed of being in an army squad that included old women and children, with no uniforms.

Father's been diagnosed with diabetes, possibly a mild case.  He'll be changing his diet and exercising more.

Another dance lesson.

Dinner was McDonald's. (I was going to make it, but I completely forgot!)

Saw Sergio Leone's The Good, the Bad and the Ugly at the Cinematheque, for probably the fourth time.  It may not be the greatest movie in the western genre, but it has to be one of the most fun.  It's full of clever parodies of action-movie cliches.  An anachronism:  they blow up the bridge with dynamite, which hadn't yet been invented!

Downloaded the AdAware shareware but couldn't open it (like the WebWash last weekend).
