5 Annoying Trends That Make Every Movie Look the Same Hollywood: the dream factory, the place where joy is made and everybody craps rainbows and cocaine. But underneath the glitz is a bunch of working stiffs who are either just trying to get the job done, or hacks who get their original ideas by ripping off other hacks. That's why these days... #5. Have You Ever Noticed: There's some unwritten rule that horror movies should be blue: The Ring Saw The Nightmare on Elm Street reboot. Meanwhile, apocalyptic movies are gray and washed out: Then there are more subtle ones, for instance movies set in the desert tend to be yellow. Smokin' Aces (Las Vegas) The Hills Have Eyes (rural Nevada) Movies where reality is off-kilter will be green: Fight Club The Matrix films, aka The Greenest Movies Ever Made Honestly, half the time you can guess the genre of the film based on one still from the trailer. What's Going On? It's called digital color correction. Now? And while we're on color... #4. Or against dimly-lit rooms with the bluish tint: This is a color wheel: #3.

This Is How You Love An Introvert Make eye contact as frequently as possible. You should learn to know each earthy rim of her irises better than your own, so that when she doesn’t talk, you can at least understand the language of her glare. Ask her questions. Touch her. Do not confuse her patience with tolerance. When you fight, do not expect her to crack. Do not start a Cold War; muteness has always been her defense. When she chooses to wear the red scarf instead of the seven other brown, black and grey ones hanging in the closet next to it, let her know how beautiful it is to see her in color. Do not, though, lose yourself for her. When you see her, smile.

Recycle pizza boxes into wall art Art for pizza lovers! BTW our pizza is delivered with a wax paper insert on the bottom of the box, so the boxes were clean.

Biography Kissing Sailor - Found at Last Glenn Edward McDuffie knows why the sailor kissing a white-clad nurse in that famous photo has his wrist bent back in an awkward position. Taken August 14, 1945 in New York City's Times Square moments after the crowd there heard World War II had ended, that photo has epitomized the jubilant mood of a nation who had won our hard fought victory. Glenn knows why that sailor has his wrist twisted because he is that sailor. Glenn had come to New York after coming off the SS Alexander Lillinton with Jack Holmes (from Pittsburg), the sailor in the dark uniform seen laughing in that same photo. Glenn also knows the sailor in the white uniform's name is Bob Little from Buffalo, New York since he also served on the same ship. Now ready to turn 80 this August 3rd, Glenn wants to celebrate the 62nd anniversary of his kiss of an overjoyed nurse by setting the record straight. Glenn will turn 80 this August 3, 2007.

Brown Penny by William Butler Yeats Saturday Sep. 24, 2011 Listen Download E-mail Share Brown Penny by William Butler Yeats I whispered, 'I am too young,' And then, 'I am old enough'; Wherefore I threw a penny To find out if I might love. "Brown Penny" by William Butler Yeats, from Brown Penny. It's the birthday of Gothic writer Horace Walpole (books by this author), born in London (1717). It was in a letter to a friend that Walpole referenced a happy, accidental discovery, calling it "serendipity." It may not have, had Walpole not distinguished himself beyond letter writing. But Walpole's obsession with Gothic wasn't limited to literature. It's the birthday of Muppets creator Jim Henson, born James Maury Henson in Greenville, Mississippi (1936). Henson continued making puppets, which he called Muppets, for commercials. Henson, though, had always imagined his Muppets could have an audience far broader than just little kids, and he booked them a gig on another new show, this one called Saturday Night Live.
