"I would keep a pack of foxhounds, and drink a bottle of wine every day."

I found this article to be quite compelling for several reasons. I have always wondered about isolation and the negative consequences that can be faced.  My father always jokes that he wants to be a hermit, and I wonder if I would ever have the stamina for such an adventure. More often then not my conclusion of the event is most often a "no."

“Miss Eliza Bennet,” said Miss Bingley, “despises cards. She is a great reader, and has no pleasure in anything else.”

Movies I am freaking excited for:


Interstellar

This movie looks great. It looks like it has that super great sci-fi part to it that is just unbeatable. I really like the Director who is heading this as well.

Edge of Tomorrow
Not only do I love this song that plays, but I freakin love the plot line as well. It helps Tom Cruise is in the show, but I think Emily Blunt (WHO IS MARRIED TO JIM FROM THE OFFICE- no need to say more) is also going to rock it!

Jupiter Ascending
Not only does this movie have the beautiful Channing Tatum, but it also is looks like a remake of the Matrix! Which means it looks good!

"But Georgiana would not join her. Her brother's recommendation was enough to ensure her favour; his judgement could not err."

Finally, the better choice has been decided! I find this article incredibly interesting because I myself have wondered which type of TV is the better fit.  It is sad Plasma TV's are dying, but I think the LED market is where it is at. LED's are after all more energy efficient.  Maybe one day I will make enough money to own an OLED which produces a mathematically impossible blackness. Pretty cool! Too bad it costs something like a used car.
