Reading (For Dummies)

I'm (not) from New Jersey

I guess I can still say that I'm from New Jersey, although I'm not from New Jersey anymore.

What I'm talking 'bout

So I did that yesterday, which was nice. I also saw the new Matrix movie. If you're planning to see it, stop. Take a pencil. Sharpen it. Jam it in your eye.

Actually, instead of watching the new Matrix movie, I think you should just read this Slashdot post (skip the numerology section, though). It does a hell of a lot better of a job of explaining symbolism and textual references present in the Matrix, providing closure, etc, than the movie does. Perhaps I'm just not stupid enough to appreciate it, though. Or perhaps I'm not as much of a fan of Karl Gustav Jung to see much of anything in the movie as intriguingly symbolic.
