anyone who doesn't take a nap should be sent to jail

You know what I hate? Well, this sinus infection or whatever that's had me alternately congested or runny-nosed since Saturday. Not to get all cliché here but I'm really sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Also highly hate-able, when I make a comment on a friend's update on Facebook and then someone else rolls in and says something dickish. I mean, one wants to respond, right? But it's someone else's wall. And I think that's just really piss poor etiquette. It's like going over someone's house and then getting into a fight with one of the other guests.

Something I don't in any way hate. This insanely cool musical number from the 1977 Bollywood movie Dream Girl. Cory Doctorow linked this over at boing2 last week but somehow I misread his description and thought it had been shot in Disneyland. I looked again today and realized, no, it's Disney World. In 1977, which was the same year that I was there with my family. Unlike the kids in the movie, my brother and I were semi-jaded teens so were more into the Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, Space Mountain type rides. I regret not having gone on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride and I think the Nemo submarine ride was closed. Otherwise I just didn't go on it for some reason. Maybe the line was too long. I can't remember (it was a long time ago). I also remember the Enchanted Tiki Room being lots o' fun. That was probably my first exposure to tiki/exotica culture, even if in a Disneyified stylee.
