THE END OF A GOOD THING

  • 8:20am
  • Division Bus
  • I step up, into the bus and use my Upass
  • Beep! Beep! Beep! Error
  • (D)river "This card is hot"
  • (M)oi "Excuse me, what does that mean?"
  • D "There's something wrong with this card"
  • M "I don't understand. I got this card through my school"
  • D "The card is coming up hot. That means something ain't right with it"
  • M "I go to school. I paid for the card"
  • D Saying nothing, leans over and checks the display on the card reader again
  • M "So what do we do about it?"
  • D "I should confiscate it. Can you pay another way?"
  • Holding onto the Upass, I reach into my pocket, take my wallet and tap it against the card reader
  • Beep! Accepted
  • M "I guess I'll ask my school what's up"
  • D has already forgotten M is there

    DOUBLE WHAMMY!

    WOW! is most probably the simplest way to describe the movie I just saw. STAY directed by Marc Forster (Monster's Ball & Finding Neverland) and written by David Benioff (Troy screenplay) did a stella job here. My eyes were as wide as they could physcialy go, for the entrie movie. It was only when I started to feel tension in my lungs that I realized I had forgotten to breath. I'm not going to give anything away about this film. Just state that it is the best film I've seen in a long time and you need to see it. What are you waiting for? Get off your lazy arse and hop to it!
