D'oh!

One of the things that held me back from starting a blog was the fact that I could never come up with a good name. When I finally did luck onto one I was happy with, the ball got rolling fairly rapidly after that. The Kind of Face You Hate is, I think, unusual, and eye-catching, and -- if I'm ever able to get into a rhythm with this thing -- will indicate in a vague way "what I'm all about". Don't you know.

Well, last night I was watching Manhunter, a favorite of mine. As you do with favorite movies you've seen a billion times, I was waiting for some of moments I love most. One of my favorite moments is when Graham puts his family on a plane to ship them the hell out of there, and he's staring out a window, into the rain, and he says "It's just you and me now, sport."

Or, should I say, It's Just You and Me Now, Sport.

Son of a bitch!

    I thought you were gonna say that you should have named your blog MANHUNTER. Es posible?

    But honestly, I like The Kind of Face You Hate. It's very intriguing. It does make me reflect on what it could possibly mean, but that mystery is part of the fun.

    I like my current title, too. It's just that the line from Manhunter was staring me right in the face the whole time I wasn't starting my blog because I couldn't think of a title.

    If you want to change it, change it. It's still early on. It won't affect your http address. I like both titles personally but I think "The Kind of Face You Hate" is more distinctive.

    Yes, well, I like it, too. I'm not going to change the title. I just felt like postin' somethin'...
