Third Debate
I did not bother to watch the debate last night. From what I read it sounds like Bush came off well, Kerry only mentioned Vietnam once, and from the debate questions I read it seems that moderator Bob Schieffer was completely in the tank for Kerry. I watched too much baseball the past few weeks and only checked on the games every once and a while.
Instead last night I watched Godfather Part II. I listened to The Godfather novel on tape a few months ago and had been meaning to watch this movie to see how it compared. I still like the first movie better, but part II is really good. Especially the flashback scenes of Vito rising to become the Godfather in the 1910s which are all taken from the book. Although the movies leave some parts of the book out they did a remarkable job of keeping the story intact. Although the present day plot in part II is good enough, I liked the complexity of the first movies plot and the character development of Michael in part I more. Tom Hagan was my favorite character the first time watching the movies, but now I find Michael and Fredo more interesting.
Right now I am uploading my final project for grad school. It is over 200 MB and my professors said I had to upload it as one file. The network I am using is not that fast and I started uploading it about two hours ago and it looks like it is about through.
