to many the years at school remain etched in loving memory.
we ascribe to our formative years, the traits that are our forte...
and sometimes, those traits that are our shortcomings :-)
this trend has been set, in the 80's, with so many "Back to School" movies.
School reunion movies, where nerds are depicted as businessmen...
... and school jocks are portrayed as good-fer-nothings.
Witness the rise of "Charles Grandy" in "13 Going 30" (Jennifer Garner is hot!)
The hot bloke winds up being a taxi driver.
And the chubby neighbour turns out to be a hottie; a bohemian photographer living it day to day in the hubbub of life, in the crucible of New York.
Enough social commentary already...
I, Mr. Nerd 1995, have not yet graduated to Bill Gates status!
Oh well, to all the bitterness in secondary school, i say: Au Revoir!
For now the alumni will be formed (hopefully!).
And there will be a meteoric rise of heroes.
A new day to add to our calendars (thank god for Mozilla).
And here is the rambunctious link that irked me into this rambling soliloquy (not quite Macbeth, but, still as full of questions!):

The face off is on Sept 19, 2004.
Recall now that quote, that line, in Hellboy:
"Again, in my life time, they come... Only this time, I am not sure if I can fend them off..."
Well, maybe not exactly those words, but you get the idea.
It's the aged professor, who, bent with time, inspects the corollary damage in the museum...
.. and finds that the deuce of a villain (and his quizzical assistant, the wind-up man) and his germainic lover (temptress, vixen, siren?) are back to rock the world to smithereens.
And hence that cryptic line...
