July 15, 2007

I'd like to begin with a correction from yesterday. "Carnival of the Animals" was first a musical suite composed by Camille Saint-Saens in 1886. John Lithgow recently wrote a childrens' book that was inspired by this piece.

Today was a rather slow day. I continue to upload older pictures to our online photo album. And we really didn't do much until the afternoon when we did a little shopping. This evening however was very disappointing. We saw "Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World's End". Extremely disappointing. It dragged on and on. Octopus face, Davy Jones, played too large a part. The trilogy became more and more fantasy as it went on. I don't know what to say other than, save your money until you can rent it. Sure there were fight scenes, plots intertwined, double-crossing, even triple-crossing. But really, enough is enough. None were as clever or as clear as in the original "Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl".
