			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sometimes something is so utterly terrible that you can&#8217;t help but share it. It&#8217;s much like the feeling you get when someone farts on the other side of the room. People start wrinkling their noses in disgust and evacuating the area&#8230; but you don&#8217;t believe how wretched the smell is.  The testimony of half of the room isn&#8217;t enough to satisfy your curiosity. You have to find out for yourself how bad it really is.</p>
<p>And now I invite you to partake in the most appallingly put together videos you&#8217;ve seen since Charley the Unicorn.</p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1e7bNwvdJhk&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;color1=0x006699&#038;color2=0x54abd6"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1e7bNwvdJhk&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;color1=0x006699&#038;color2=0x54abd6" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok, so I have been a fan of Sia for a while.Â  I thought it appropriate to post the video of one of my favorites from a long list of her songs.Â  Both videos are of the same song, one was live, the other not.Â  You&#8217;ll be able to tell which is which.</p>
<p>Not only is the song amazing, but the video(s) are equally creative and amazing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.thebigbags.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/peaceful_warrior.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-660 alignleft" style="float: left; title=" src="http://www.thebigbags.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/peaceful_warrior-195x300.jpg" alt="" width="147" height="226" /></a>Yesterday I watched the movie <a title="The link to the movie description on IMDB" href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0438315/" target="_blank"><em>Peaceful Warrior</em></a>. The acting was average, and the script was pretty cliche at times, but the overall message was really fantastic.  Here are some examples of things that I learned from this movie. My goal now, is to apply them like an insecure girl applies makeup&#8230; generously and without shame, for they lead to happiness.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;There&#8217;s no greater purpose than service to others.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Life has just three rules: Paradox, humor and change.<br />
Paradox &#8211; Life is a mystery. Don&#8217;t waste time trying to figure it out.<br />
Humor &#8211; Keep a sense of humor, especially about yourself.  IT is a strength beyond all measure.<br />
Change &#8211; Know that nothing stays the same.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;Death isn&#8217;t sad. The sad thing is: most people don&#8217;t live at all.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;Those who are the hardest to love, need it the most.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;The journey is what brings us happiness not the destination.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">These truths are simple and easy to remember. But putting them into practice is the trick, and I daresay it could change your life and make you&#8230; happy.  And what is better than that?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Watch it. Thank me later.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thebigbags.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/batman_logo.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-442 aligncenter" title="batman_logo" src="http://www.thebigbags.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/batman_logo-300x175.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="175" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I know that one of you (or maybe all two of you) has been anxiously awaiting a review of the new Batman movie written by yours truly.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to assume that you&#8217;ve already seen the movie due to the fact that it grossed over $158,000,000.00 in its opening weekend, and a number that high implies that roughly every human on earth saw it at least once within that 3 day span.  So, if you haven&#8217;t seen it, and I say something that spoils the plot (like &#8220;Heath Ledger dies.&#8221;), it&#8217;s your own fault.  You should have seen it this weekend like the rest of the human race did&#8230; including my pen pal from Zambia named Beenzu.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve talked to lots of people about the movie. They all had the same general reaction.  Most people thought it was &#8216;dark,&#8217; or &#8216;intense,&#8217; or just plain &#8216;evil.&#8217; But personally, if I could choose one word to describe <em>The Dark Knight</em>, I think it would be &#8216;cute.&#8217;  I mean, honestly, what&#8217;s more adorable than grown men dressing up as clowns, scarecrows and bats, running around the street at night time with one another?  Where I&#8217;m from, they call that Halloween. The only thing they were missing was my killer bumblebee costume from last year. (Nothing says evil villain like a bumblebee outfit.)</p>
<p>Ok, but really.</p>
<p>Back to the topic at hand&#8230; as always, I have to give props where props are due.  Heath, even though I know you&#8217;re never going to read this because you&#8217;re dead and all, &#8220;<strong>YOU DA&#8217; MAN!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Honestly folks, I disagree with anyone who says that Heath Ledger played a great villain.  I also disagree with them if they say he played the <em>best</em> villain.  The character he played-this Joker he created-is not a villain&#8230; he is a monster. An absolute wretch escaped from the darkest corner of H-E-double hockey sticks.  And it was indeed a spectacle to watch.  It was not, however, my favorite part of the flick.</p>
<p>What was my favorite part, you ask? Well, dear reader, my favorite part had to be every part where Maggie Gyllenhaal replaced Katie Holmes with her believable, non-upstaging, un-sucktastic acting.  Ok, so I made up a few words there&#8230; but <em>man</em> I am so glad that Katie Holmes got nixed from this film.  I think it&#8217;s payment for her participation in that fake relationship to cover up Tom&#8217;s gayness&#8230; oh, and the whole conversion to Scientology thing.</p>
<p>Needless to say, I&#8217;m a fan.  I like movies where Christian Bale plays a crazed billionaire who likes to dress up in a spandex bat costume and whisper secrets into criminals ears with the voice of an 80-year-old chain smoker.</p>
<p>I like movies featuring psychotic, disfigured clowns who have no conscience or morals and delight on reaping havoc on the innocent and defenseless people of Gotham (which isn&#8217;t a real place, by the way).</p>
<p>I like movies with Maggie Gyllenhaal.</p>
