In a rather short news article Delicious informed everyone that it turned two years old now. Congratulations to the crew and all involved for an excellent idea and service. I hope that things will get more stable with time and that more people will discover the beauty of tagged web as both of these make life so much easier and so much fun.
Happy birthday!

This is a really really crap movie. Completely. It is one of those billion movies that use everything cliche. The story is a mix of talanted kid getting though a college movie with some sport movie about college football team or something. All that is new there – instead of football kids are playing drums.
All acting sucks in this film. Character development is non-existent. There is no drama what-so-ever. As there is no comedy at all. Not even romance. Nothing.
The only thing that made me watch this movie through and give the whole 3 points out of 10 to it is music. Not that it was exceptionally good or anything, but it was a lot of it and it was of a rather large scale – orchestra-type. And they weren’t playing any classics so it was somewhat interesting to listen.
Other than that – the movie is a complete crap. Ignore it.
The time came to have Maxim checked with the neurologist. The issue is with his facial nerve partially paralized on the right side of his face. It does not affect him in any other way than making his smile a bit more charming, but it is an anomaly that should be doctor supervised.
Dr.Simos arranged an appointment for us with the collegue of his. Maxim was checked all from top to bottom – his eyes’ movement, his hands’ grip, rubber hammer was used upon his knees, heels, and elbows, he was touched, patted, sitted, turned around and smiled at.
It seems that all of his reactions are normal. There are no other traces of neurological disbalance. There will be more tests to see if the cause of the paralysis – misplaced pressure somewhere – has gone or not. If it’s not – that we will have to take care of it. Otherwise, some vitamines and massage will correct the situation.
Although we’ll be having more medical examinations unleash on Maxim, I for one feel a bit less worried. It doesn’t look like a major problem and there are good chances of curing it too.
