A couple of posts back, I challened Kat to think up a name for a herd of mutant deer. My contribution was a "freak of mutated deer." I think her responses are way better and way funnier:
Basic: a quirk of mutant deer
Culturally dated: The monstrosities formerly known as deer
Generic: a fold of refabricated fauna
Foretelling of doom: a harbinger of hinds
Overly dramatic: a horde of hair-raising harts
Strictly alliterative: a drove of deviant deer
Gross: dinner
I've not seen any amazing news stories in the last couple of days. I did see an amazing new movie out on DVD. It's called "The Illusionist" and stars Edward Norton, Paul Giamatti, Rufus Sewell, and Jessica Biel. Absolutely wonderful romance/mystery. Even if you wind up not being wild about the plot, the acting is superb and the cinematography is just breathtaking. You feel as if you're watching a very old movie in terms of the lighting and mood. Next time I get near Wal-Mart (which is WAY too often), I'm going to buy this one. Four stars.
Speaking of four stars. I need some sort of rating system. Stars are boring. And no, Mom, I'm not going to do the cigarette test. (My mom rates a movie she sees in the theater by how many times she leaves to go smoke - e.g. One smoke is a pretty good movie, four smokes she might as well stayed home). Maybe I'll have my hubby graphic design something up for me.

How fun; I made the front page! Thanks for the link. :-)
A movie rating system is a good idea, and while I think your mom's cigarette test is hilarious, it's kind of a "negative scale" thing, isn't it? In keeping with the mutant deer theme, maybe you could have a movie rating system and graphic based on how many legs the deer has. Four legs for an average flick, two for one that isn't going anywhere, and six for a runaway hit (although that might get it confused with a horror film...) Hmmm, probably too confusing. I'm stumped, but it'll be fun to see what you come up with.
Drat that Kat! I was gunna suggest deer legs! Ah, well . . . great minds . . . If not cigs, how about champagne glasses. One glass - not worth popping the cork. Two glasses - some educational (nutritional)value. Three glasses - beats ER re-runs. Four - time to really celebrate!!!
I'm still looking for a cap caption.
