Shall I 'Recruit' you for a Dinner and a Movie

Just finished saying goodbye to Arcterex and Firefly. They came over for my wife's awesome lasagna, and the opportunity to watch The Recruit, which just came out on DVD.

Awesome movie. Outside of some silly 'Movie OS' style issues surrounding computers, the movie as a whole has enough plot twists to make your head spin. An excellent movie to end the night with. I completely recommend it if you are into the 'thought you understand it' spy movies. This is no 007 caper, this is dirty espionage the way only ever told in dark alleys behind the Kremlin.

Right now I am waiting for the Half-Life movie (25 min one) to finish downloading from Arc's server, and browsing the net looking for a better torrent file for RTCW:Enemy Territory for Windows. If you have a link to a torrent that's not from ID(Their's keeps timing out on me), let me know.

HL2 is now neck and neck with doom3 for my most anticipated game of the upcoming year. It may even have pulled ahead simply because it has a ship date, not a "when it's done". While I admire the folks at id for not compromising quality to get a product out the door (similar to some people I know), man, the wait SUCKS!!!!

I'm waiting for doom so I can have the shit scared out of me like I did in doom 1 and doom 2, and HL2 I'm waiting to become immersed (again) in the world of gordon freeman. Hell, even playing opposing forces and blue shift is awsome.... there's something about the game that draws you in *very* nicely!

Can you help me to find a way to have a copy from "Matrix Reloaded"? It's stupid, but I can't handle with this. I'm not clever, just beautiful:)

The CIA had an opening for an assassin. After all of the background checks, interviews, and testing were done there were three finalists - two men and one woman. For the final test, the CIA agents took one of the men to a large metal door and handed him a gun.

"We must know that you will follow your instructions, no matter what the circumstances. Inside this room you will find your wife sitting in a chair. You have to kill her." The first man said. "You cant be serious. I could never shoot my wife!"The agent replies, "Then you?re not the right man for this job."

The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went into the room. All was quiet for about five minutes. Then the agent came out with tears in his eyes. "I tried, but I cant kill my wife." The agent replies, "You dont have what it takes. Take your wife and go home."

Finally, it was the womans turn. Only she was told to kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were heard, one shot after another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet. The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her brow and said, "You guys didnt tell me the gun was loaded with blanks. So I had to beat him to death with the chair."
