No, it wasn’t due to the infamy of me having once lived there. I have not yet fully scandalized a building.
This article is from two years ago — but I just saw this today when an alum shared it.
WOW, the memories I have of that place.

AREN’T I ALREADY HAUNTED ENOUGH BY MY OWN DEMONS?
What do I do? Turn it off? That would require that I acknowledge that it happened.
Plus maybe Ghosthomeboy is watching it now.
Update — now there is a thunderstorm brewing as night begins to fall. I am half-convinced that I am still asleep with my nap and dreaming this.

I told the nice young woman who cut my hair that I went to school in Fredericksburg. She said she thought I might have gone to high school with her dad.
For some reason, that made me feel SO old.
Update — people on Facebook have now informed me that the phrase “nice young woman” is employed only by old people.

I think that we can all agree that “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” (2008) is the least of the film series. (Some people really despise it.) And I suppose it’s telling that I’ve only seen it twice.
It isn’t a terrible movie, it just couldn’t match the magic of the original trilogy. (I was surprised a moment ago when Wikipedia informed me that it was indeed still directed by Steven Spielberg.) The Russian villains were a little too cartoonish, the chemistry among the leads was a little off, and the whole thing maybe felt a little … rushed. For some reason, it makes me think of a pretty good made-for-television movie instead of a feature film — sort of an “Indiana Jones Reunion Special.”
Hey, I didn’t hate it. The artifact they’re chasing is unique and cool, the denouement is inventive, and Shia LaBeouf’s “Mutt” actually didn’t bother me much. This movie was fun.
