  1. on my snow day, i watched my favorite winter film, john carpenter's "the thing". it's his frickin masterpiece. i also watched the full version of "death proof" to complete the kurt russell theme. i liked the shortened version i saw in the theater better, the double feature "grindhouse" version.
