I found this really good U2 song yesterday and am kicking myself for not finding it earlier when I downloaded Bullet the Blue Sky and another-song-of-U2-that-I-forgot-at-the-moment to my iPod.

Yeah, so that's my revelation for the day.

Also, Sarah totally loves Buffy. I swear to God, she loves it all: Giles, Angel...she even asked me if a main character will get killed off this first season. My response: "Oh no, no one does, except a secondary character." And then afterwards I realized, "Crap, Buffy dies! But she comes back to live, so that doesn't really count." If Sarah is concerned about who'll die this season, then she might as well stop watching. I mean, in the second season, Angel dies; Jenny dies. In third season, no big character really dies. In fourth season...I can't think of anyone. But in fifth season wow! tears, tears, and more tears, as Joyce does die and I love The Body. Sure, I cry everytime I watch Dawn's breakdown in the school hallway, but the overall episode is so poetic. There's no music, first of all, and Joss really knows how to dig deep in your heart, drill a nail in there, and then glue it back up with special glue. Sure, that's just too much, but if you think about Joss' work, it really is true.

And then in sixth season Tara dies, which, we all know, is very, very sad. Oh yeah, fifth season also included Buffy, but she comes back to life :D and then seventh season features Spike as the dying champion, as well as Anya.

*sigh* yep, lots of deaths. And don't make me get started on Angel!

So, she loves Angel. (She meaning Sarah.) I cannot wait until she gets to see Angel! It's a good show, very dark and adult. I love it; Sarah will love it.

Okay, so now is my intellectual post of the day. Sure, it's still in the concept of TV shows, but it is good! Way I see it, Mal and Angel are both very similar. I mean, both of them, if you study their past, both went through an epiphany that literally changed their life. Angel's epiphany was getting his soul back; this made him more broody, morose, and basically, angsty. Mal's epiphany is, which I can safely point out, is the scene from Serenity Part 1 because at that specific point, Mal realizes that everything he fought for is over and he lost; the Alliance won and there's no turning back, because the Alliance is basically like the Democratic party (do not flame me! i'm republican and proud of it. adam baldwin is too). After that point, Mal also becomes morose; he shuts down and isn't at all social afterwards.

Both Angel and Mal are both secluded internally. Externally, they show that they're either a conflicted hero and cowboy-type person. Yeah, I know that didn't make enough sense, but I like Angel and Mal. I also do like Angelus; man, is he one crazy bastard (hee! Doyle used that word when discribing Angelus!)
