Oh hell yaroswellI am writing my cover letter for a job I am applying to at Roswell. Cover letters are so tough to write, I have been in front of the computer for an hour banging my head against my desk. It is such a parched writing style, devoid of any personality.
Wish me luck. I really want to work there.

ahh sorry i didn't respond. I have not been keeping up with my e-mail or checking estrip. I did get your e-mail and I think it is the same job . it happens, i didn't think you heard about it from my journal, i figured you found it on the site just like me. maybe they are hopefully hiring two people? I didn't realize all the hubub it was causing in the comments.

yeah, I assumed that. After re-reading my comment, it sounded pretty harsh. Sorry about that, it wasn't my intention.

Hey! (e:james) and (e:jim) told me that (e:james) would love to work at Roswell and gave me good idea about the kind of skills they were targeting and I have been actively looking at job-postings that satified the criteria ever since (e:jim) posted that (e:james) was looking for a job! This was one of those jobs!

I did not find out about it through Mike's journal. I actually emailed Mike several days ago to find out what the situation is but haven't heard back yet.

You are applying for the same position as (e:mike)? I hope you didn't find out about the job from mike's journal, 'cause that would make you a real asshole.

Halloween Movie MadnessMovies don't scare me. I love horror movies for the pure cheese, without a trace of felt terror. Movies like The Exorcist, The Shining, The Omen, are all good horror movies, but I don't get a chill up my spine at any point. Never have I been actually terrorized.
Until Freaks.
Todd Browning's Freaks is the only movie to creep me out. To make me so uncomfortable I had to take a break and untangle the disgust in my brain.
The film takes place in a carnival. There are the big ring circus folks, and the sideshow freaks. Plotting brings the big ring people into the world of the freaks. The freaks are so other that we can't help but empathize with the plotting, evil characters. The viewer is the villain.
The movie is filled with little scenes of simple humanity. Like a man born without limbs rolling a cigarette.
Or take a look at this iconic scene. Just prior to it, the woman was mocking her new dwarf husband (all part of that evil plotting) at their wedding. The sincerity of the freaks response is one of the most chilling things on film.
And the ending... if the ending doesn't keep you up all night you aren't human. But I wont spoil it. Go out and rent it.

Well, most of the people have actual disabilities. Coo Coo is just a person with disabilities in a crazy chicken costume.
Thing I love most about this movie is that it is not exploitative. The fully abled people are such horrible monsters and the freaks are shown with such humanity that you don't feel like you are watching a sideshow.
And there are some cut scenes on youtube. Not sure where they are pulled from, but some are worth taking a looksie at.

Oh Ho! I Loved this film. It's truly creepy! You forgot to mention that the "freaks" in the film are real people with deformities and circus performers, not people in makeup.
This film could only have been made during the 1930's.
Apparently the original version was released at 90 mins long but the studio forced it to be cut to 60mins because the reactions to the film was so intense. The cut 30 mins have been lost to time. :( This movie was so great, just imagine how great the cut scenes must have been!
England banned this movie for 30 years!

Our nation was founded as a liberal democracy. I think it became fashionable to tell people how to live their lives when 'liberal' became a dirty word.
I say such creepy props should be banned altogether. Why can't people be sane and rational for once and stop introducing crazy voting points like this?? WHO THE HELL do people think they are to decide for how their neighbours should live their life?
That was exactly what I was thinking.
