LSC Movies for the week of Feb 18 to Feb 20
Fri. Feb 18 Cool Runnings [PG] 26-100 7 & 10
A movie about a Jamaican bobsled team? It sounds like the punch line to
a very bad one- line joke. But it is based on a true life story of four
Jamaican track-and-field stars, shut out of the summer Olympics, going
to extremes to compete as Olympic bobsled racers in Canada.
Sat. Feb 19 The Man Without a Face [PG-13] 26-100 7 & 10
Chuck Norstadt is an insecure 12-year-old in a 1960s Maine coastal
village; he longs to change his life by getting accepted into a military
boarding school. Mel Gibson plays Justin McLeod, a recluse whose
horribly disfigured face has made him an object of ridicule and wild
gossip. McLeod agrees to tutor Chuck for the military boarding-school
entrance exam, and the film details the bond that develops between these
two outcasts.
Sun. Feb 20 Thelma and Louise [R] 10-250 7 & 10
Thelma (Geena Davis) is a housewife whose husband controls her life; her
best friend Louise (Susan Sarandon) is a waitress whose boyfriend can't
make a commitment. The two decide to take a break from men by going on a
road trip, but after Louise kills Thelma's would-be rapist, they are
forced to make a run for the Mexican border. Harvey Keitel and Brad Pitt
also appear in this barnstorming, hell-bound descent into criminality
and liberation.

MACBETH.
ACT IV.
SCENE I.
[A cavern. In the middle, a caldron boiling.]
[Thunder. Enter the three WITCHES.]
FIRST WITCH.
Thrice the brinded cat hath mew'd. 4/1/1
SECOND WITCH.
Thrice and once the hedge-pig whined.
THIRD WITCH.
Harpier cries:- 'tis time, 'tis time.
FIRST WITCH.
Round about the caldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw.-
Toad, that under cold stone
Days and nights has thirty-one
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot.
ALL.
Double, double toil and trouble; 4/1/10
Fire, burn; and, caldron bubble.
SECOND WITCH.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and howlet's wing,-
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.
ALL.
Double, double toil and trouble; 4/1/20
Fire, burn; and, caldron, bubble.
THIRD WITCH.
Scale of dragon; tooth of wolf;
Witches' mummy; maw and gulf
Of the ravin'd salt-sea shark;
Root of hemlock digg'd i' the dark;
Liver of blaspheming Jew;
Gall of goat; and slips of yew
Sliver'd in the moon's eclipse;
Nose of Turk, and Tartar's lips;
Finger of birth-strangled babe 4/1/30
Ditch-deliver'd by a drab,-
Make the gruel thick and slab:
Add thereto a tiger's chaudron,
For th'ingredients of our caldron.
ALL.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire, burn; and, caldron, bubble.
SECOND WITCH.
Cool it with a baboon's blood,
Then the charm is firm and good.
[Enter HECATE.]
HECATE.
O, well done! I commend your pains;
And every one shall share i' the gains: 4/1/40
And now about the caldron sing,
Like elves and fairies in a ring,
Enchanting all that you put in. [Music and a song,
"Black Spirits," etc. Exit HECATE]
SECOND WITCH.
By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes:-
Open, locks,
Whoever knocks!
[Enter MACBETH.]
MACBETH.
How now, you secret, black, and midnight hags!
What is't you do? 4/1/50
ALL.
A deed without a name.

random quotes:
The city, 1:00am. People in their rooms, asleep, lonely, depressed.
One of them gets the urge to pet a small, furry animal. That's where
I come in. My name's Friday. I carry a badger.
- probably Mark Dalrymple <markd@visix.com>'s sig
A liberal mind is a mind that is able to imagine itself believing anything.
- Max Eastman (I've never heard of him either)
We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and
to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and
his children smart.
- H.L. Mencken
Whatever you do, stamp out abuses, and love those who love you.
- Voltaire
I am not the only person who uses his computer mainly for
the purpose of diddling with his computer. There are millions of
others. I know this, because I encounter them on the Internet,
which is a giant international network of intelligent, informed
computer enthusiasts, by which I mean, "people without lives."
- Dave Barry
On the road, ZIPPY is a pinhead without a purpose, but never without a POINT.

On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are..
