My movie last night was "American Mary", a horror thriller.   Definitely 
not for the weak here but a very, very well done film.  And not just a 
good horror film but a well done film over all.  It's on VUDU as a 
"pre-theatrical release" but at regular rental price.  I like films with 
substance to them not just contrived focus group driven entertainment.  
It's about a medical student who gets into the world of body 
modification.  Very Lynchian though more Jennifer than David.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1959332/

I've also been watching episodes of "Preamar" on HBO VOD which is a 
Brazilian TV series about an unemployed bank executive.  Lots of Rio 
beach scenery and some Brazilian music.

MJ, the only really yellow suits I've ever seen have been on firemen.  Perhaps 
that's why the beige colored ones instead.  I would imagine that those rubbery 
suits are pretty sweaty.  Anyway, for other trekkies on FFL, I just saw the 
latest Star Trek offering.  And I saw it in 3D!  There are some tie ins to the 
original TV series so it helps if you're familiar with that.  I'd give it a 6.5 
on a scale of 1 to 10.  Action packed, some good humor and a pretty good plot.  
But maybe the element of surprise missing, such as the first prequel had.

the woman who gave my intro and prep lectures was a god looking woman - I 
wouldn't have cared what she was wearing - of course, when I attended the prep 
lecture and personal interview, I was so tanked up on dope I could hardly talk.

Nothing sells meditation better than a car salesman look!  Would you 
have started if TM teachers wore kurtajamis instead?

Where I worked we looked askance at anyone who came to a job interview 
wearing a suit.  We were definitely not a "suit" company.

Ah - I'm betting that's it - but why don't they wear actual yellow suits, and 
not the fawn colored ones, I wonder?

They have no minds of their own, and are just 
following the lead of someone who once dressed
that way and got Maharishi's attention? :-)

Maharishi often advised people on how to dress, or stated preferences.
