juno

yes! its out on video. run, don't walk to your nearest target now!
i cannot over sell the greatness of bleeker, vanessa, kimya dawson and the moldy peaches. go! go! go!
that being said, let me bring the room down with some political commentary.
let me quote "anyone else but you":

". . . the monkey on your back is the latest trend. . . "

so true!
remember that i teach middle school? this statement is so true. i could count on both hands and then some the number of students that have left me this school year to go and have their babies. . . .i teach middle school!

here's the greatness of juno. . . .
she considers abortion. her choice. i would rather she have that choice.
that choice to have a procedure done by a medical professional in a sterile environment with proper recovery and follow up, rather than in a back room somewhere with black market information, tools and care (or lack thereof). she reconsiders abortion.
she considers adoption. . . .and through the quirkiness that is diablo cody, unfolds the story of a pregnant teenager that chooses adoption. adoption.

numbers are not my thing, i don't do stats well and i don't do math. period. but i read somewhere that if everyone who aborted an unwanted pregnancy chose adoption instead, everyone, in the world, who wanted a child could have one and maybe more.
like i said i don't do numbers and i know numbers would really solidify my point, but i thought it was pretty cool.

this is not a pro-life vs. pro-choice post, another time for another day. i just thought juno was sweet.
and the soundtrack freakin' rocks!
