if you owned a movie heater, what kind of movies would you play?

i would definitely show old movies. they don't necessarily need to be black and white, but that would be good too. they would be movies that are good, but have been around forever. it would be so cool to see splendor in the grass or planes, trains, and automobiles on the big screen. i would probably show movies that i like now, but was too young (or not alive yet) to see in the theater.

the color blue & its potential contributions to world peace.

blue is a claming, relaxing color, thus it makes it viewer more peaceful. as far as world peace goes i'm not sure how blue can really help when our president just announced that he's sending more troops overseas.

in other news. i finished the last harry potter book and now i'm feeling blue.
