I downloaded the plugin here and added out-of-the-way in the footer section, under the Event Calendar.

I had to remove the first space (between < and ?) from “< ?php nr_get_movie(); ?>“ to get it working.

It would be cool if it integrated with Netflix, but I have to manually update it as Netflix movies come in. Note that it doesn’t have anything to do with Netflix specifically. You type the name of the movie and it searches the amazon database for that movie. You also manually update the status of the movie (i.e. Watching, Finished).

I may periodically add movies that I’ve previously watched since subscribing to Netflix.

I was outside of my house, to the west, with a group of others, in a field in place of my next door neighbor’s house. We were watching a group of airplanes, single file, coming from the south. At first they seemed identical until they got closer. I commented that one was phallic-like as it passed overhead. Although I’d prefer to use the word “buzzed” I don’t recall any noise, so that wouldn’t be appropriate. The planes suddenly, drastically lost speed while their altitude decreased significantly, and they were now hundreds of feet above us, somehow still in the air defying the law of gravity. We all knew something was wrong, and a few words were spoken in response, although I don’t specifically recall what they were. Probably something equivalent to “oh noes!” One of the planes crashed and the pilot fell to her death. My tech support counterpart, one of the group members, picked up her dead body, which was really more of a pile of brown goop, and put her in the outdoor trashcan.

Strangely, that morning (before the dream), I saw a bird’s wing on the carport. Irony as its best. It was still there this morning and I’ll take a picture when I get home if I remember to. Could the wing have spawned this dream or is it a coincience?

I guess myspace is still good for something. The bulletin below just caught my attention. I sure hope I can get in without a wrist band. I’m interested in seeing what other bands are “part of the Saddle Creek showcase”. As odd as this may sound, I hope Bright Eyes is NOT part of it, because there’s no way in hell I’d get in, as the place would be packed.
