Knocked another one down — I finished the grades for the last exam in my genetics course (there is still an optional final next Friday). This was an important one, because I promised myself that if I could get them all done this afternoon, I would let myself go to the local theater to watch Spiderman 3 tonight. Those little internal incentives help a lot!

Enjoy it! You’ll love when- er, nvm… I’ll keep spoilers to myself :)
Do you want spoilers? I forfeited productivity at work today to go see it with a college buddy just this previous midnight.
I enjoyed it, but he, the quintessential canon-whore, started picking nits as soon as the credits rolled. I mean, I can nit-pick with the best of them, but I kinda like to take my time and savor the rush of watching something sweet before I go back and revisit whether it was really the movie or just the movie-going.
The scene in the church is… interesting.
If I see a “Woo hoo IV!” in my RSS feed tonight, I’m just going to assume it’s because PZ wrapped up the evening by getting laid.
I’ve been really enjoying the “Woo Hoo” series, it’s so….’the Boy Inside the Flaming Head’…

Like any TRUE Spider-Man fan, I went to the midnight showing on Thursday. :D
I predict major bitching, sniping and nit-picking from all those who don’t understand the concept of “movie.”
But I liked it.

You even spelled it correctly, Hank.

I hear that in this one Peter Parker lays eggs and then eats Mary Jane.
‘… eats Mary Jane.”
So this is the porno version?

Optional Final? I wish I went to your school!!
We had optional finals back when I went to college. As I understand the concept, if your grade for coursework was at a point where neither taking nor skipping the final affects your letter grade either way, then it’s ‘optional’.
My high school had something similar to an optional final. If Seniors had a high enough marks and the teacher allowed it, a student could be exempt from taking the final for that class. I was able to avoid a few of them.
