Si Belle

Saw a really good movie last night. It was called "Caramel" and about these Lebanese women who run a beauty salon in Beirut. I guess basically about the rights of women over there. It was kind of eye opening, after all those stories you here about over there, about women who are not allowed to show there faces, not allowed to leave the house without a man. Although there obviously are differences between "here" and "there" the feeling is the same. More traditional parents confused by the liberal attitudes of their teenage daughters. I guess it's the same everywhere.
Kind of weird watching that after the hollywood-ized Twilight (by the way, it wasn't thhhaaat bad, I didn't like the books that much but found myself getting into the movie)
But yeah... you guys should look up the band Terribly Empty Pockets on Myspace! Good stuff made by family members, always a plus.
