Dear Internet,

I'm sorry that I've been neglecting you. It's been close to three weeks since I stuffed your insatiable maw with ones and zeros and I'd imagine that by now you're pretty close to your wit's end. But never fear! For I'm here now, and while I'm not promising to hang around and burp you after this meal, I am promising that I'll give you a meal. So quit'cher'bitchin'.

Love, Jeremy

Before Batman Begins hit the theatres, I kept hearing the same god damned commercial on the radio every day:

"As a man, I am flesh and blood, and can be destroyed. As a symbol, I can live forever."

Something to that extent. Does it occur to anyone else that that's probably exactly what Prince was thinking when he changed his name to that sexually/mythologically ambiguous symbol?

Speaking of Batman Begins, I went and saw it at the new Paramount theatre downtown - which is apparently close enough to the West End to be surrounded by gay men - with Matt, Riss, Pat, Heather and Aki. This was the same crew I went camping with at Golden Ears (except Matt, who had to be a slave-bitch to the wage and work). I won't ruin the movie for you, but I'm willing to admit it was disappointing. For me, at least. For both Matt and Riss, that was their second viewing, and from what I understand, Heather was planning on going back again. So it could just be that I'm a picky bastard or something. And for that reason, (well, others, too) I will not be seeing Fantastic Four when it comes out. Seriously, does this movie not just look as dumb as a bucket of squash?

It looks like Uncle Bob just got dooced, which makes me über-paranoid that somehow I'll say something bad about Vizzle Scizzle and then I, myself, will get dooced, and that's not cool at all. Nevertheless, I'm going to talk about work.

Through work, I am going to be taking two courses within the next few months: Level 2 Occupational First-Aid (a.k.a. "med school for dummies") and a Radiation Safety course (a.k.a. "don't drink this stuff, it will kill you"). Combined, the courses are probably going to cost the company around $1000, plus my salary for the time I have to take off (the first aid course is a full week, 8-5), so I know I really shouldn't be complaining. They're great things to have for future jobs or if I'm camping with some friends and one of them decides to run full-tilt into a branch or some stupid shit. On the other hand, I don't get paid more for the added responsibility. I'm going to be one of two (or maybe three) first aid attendants at the company, and while injuries are infrequent and often mild/superficial, it's still an extra layer of crap to carry around on my shoulders. And I don't get paid extra for it. Boourns on that, I say.

You absolutely have to check this out. Ah, those crazy Germans!
