From now on, Miscellanium

Can I just say that I love Bill Clinton? Always have but due to the epic release mission to free journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee, who could not be proud of this achievement? Not to mention Al Gore's involvement from the beginning (granted he couldn't really do otherwise given his ties/responsibility to Currentv but still, he's got it going on). It's incredible to imagine what they must have felt throughout the ordeal and while four months is way short of the 12 years prescribed, it's a devastatingly long time to be away from family, as is any amount of time in captivity. So major props to Bill and his crew! Now to see what happens next with N. Korea. Here's the story.

Is it wrong that I want to get involved with news media and documentary even more after this story?

Saw BrĂ¼no last night w/ Jackie. Well done, though Borat still dominates in satirizing and getting middle America good. Two notes though. 1) poor camera crew, must've taken a huge beating. Who says filmmaking isn't physical? and 2) the stage parents made me cringe more than the animated weinerschnitzel.

And this is why the art director needs to know the camera angle before we dress the set.
And new camera position...

And I haven't been to therapy since coming back from China and have been off medication since leaving for the semester. And for now, I can't believe I'm saying this, I am ok. I think that's really what I needed.
