$225.50 blood diamond

A.C. de Noblecourt: went to see blood diamond. sucked ass

Pynchon Ahab: I had a feeling when the American Talabac said it was a great movie...

A.C. de Noblecourt: movie against fictional de beers

Pynchon Ahab: Anything else fun this weekend?

A.C. de Noblecourt: where they show fictional de beers buying sierra leonian diamonds (illlegal) by pretending that they are from liberia
A.C. de Noblecourt: so bad bad bad people. And at the end of the movie, the following text : When buying diamonds, ask that they are conflict free

Pynchon Ahab: Ha!

A.C. de Noblecourt: which seems to me would benefit to the cartel (e.g. de beers) as it would keep supply low
A.C. de Noblecourt: anyway, kinda sad that it costed me $222.50 to watch it

Pynchon Ahab: ?

A.C. de Noblecourt: $22.50 for the tickets and $200 for my time
A.C. de Noblecourt: will have to post this on my blog

Pynchon Ahab: Hopefully the young lady made it less of a wasted effort?

A.C. de Noblecourt: indeed, she started dreaming of having a conflict diamond of her own on her finger
A.C. de Noblecourt: movie could become really expensive
A.C. de Noblecourt: will add that to blog too
A.C. de Noblecourt: DO NOT GO SEE THIS MOVIE will be title
