yea so we went to see Casino Royale, and i'm NOT going to comment on it. i was being fished for comment and opinions all evening but fuck, i'm not going there! i did agree to go see it, which i did, but i'm not gonna comment. i'll sit on this for a while. a month or two maybe. i'll watch it again. and maybe again. and i'll think over it. and maybe, then, i'll say something. this is not just a random topic, we're talking about Bond. James Bond. and not just any fuckin Bond, but as i've stated i got issues... i've been against this actor being cast in this role from the beginning, i pushed Casino Royale out of my mind until it's finally invaded my consciousnes through the posters on the streets and people talking about it. it's like the inconvenient truth, i don't like it but it's there. well, now i've faced it at least. i'll let it sink in.

later we went to Mel's and Sean's and i had some vodka coolers....not having eaten in a bit they sank in real well and i've been a happy camper since. tomorrow we're gonna treat ourselves with some older Bond movies in Sean's theater.

what's interesting is Sean is really passionate about Hamilton, this city. he sees it as a growing neighborhood in which you can change a lot of things and affect the way things will become. the Hamiltonians present tonight, Mel, Laura and Kev, agreed with him more less. Toronto is mentally the shadow over Hamilton and many locals feel disregarded and meaningless because of the nearby 'metropolitan'. anyway, i can see myself being the ass who lives in Finland's Toronto, and could not care less what happens in Hamilton. if i lived here i'd live in Toronto or Montreal. when i was a kid i wanted to move in Helsinki. i admit i don't care much about what goes around elsewhere... i'm too busy doing whatever i'm doing. but anyway, sitting and listening to Sean talk about Hamilton and it's future and possibilities and whatnot was weird cos i could imagine being the ignorant fuck living in Toronto not giving a shit.
