I saw The Deer Hunter today. Amzing movie, and as good as Apocalypse Now. It was a little more about the people who fought and how they were affected by Vietnam. Christopher Walken was very good, and Robert De Niro was wonderful.

And on a somewhat random note, the planter's wart medication I'm using actually works rather well. Not that I wasn't expecting the result (which may take quite a bit longer for full results), but the med contains an anti-fungal and ibuprofin. The active ingredient in Advil. A fact that amuses me.

The Deer Hunter is a very good movie - I haven't seen Apocalypse Now but know it's modeled after Conrad's Into the Heart of Darkness only set in Vietnam. I need to see it so badly! The Vietnam War is another part of history that I am very interested in.

Advil is an active ingredient in your wart medicine? Never would have guessed! I've have warts before and used probably similar medication but never really looked at the ingredients. Advil. That is interesting! Some of my friends swear that the old wives' remedy of putting duct tape over the wart of a couple of days will make it go away but I don't know about that.

Yeah, my mom got paranoid that they would spread to everyone (ie: her), even though for years they've shown no signs of spreading to anyone else. So she sent me to a podiatrist (after having them frozen and blistered unsuccesfully). this guy looked at them, told me about 5 other ways to get rid of them that would involve long periods off my feet, and called a pharmicist. Pharmacist mixed up special anti-wart stuff, and that's what I'm using.

At least it's working.
