Dear Diary,
watched Ladder 49 today and reaffirmed my ambition on becoming a fire fighter after serving my bond. A really cool show which chronicles the life of Jack Mawson, from his rookie days to his last breath in a building, as the fire devoured him. Quite touching actually and the fire sequences are pretty realistic except from the part when Jack can abseil down with only one person holding the other end of the rope. Crazy... Did some physics and unless that man's biceps can tahan like 1500N of weights for like 5 min, Jack would have died prematurely in the show, but movies are movies...
Anyway, watched Indiana Jones yesterday ( I think I am totally screwed for the upcoming exams) and find this phrase rather interesting. Dr. Jones told his new class that archaelogy is a subject to find out facts and that if they should want truth, they have to study philosophy... Funny the way he puts it. You find truth in philosophy? So, got friend come from afar, very happy is a truth? WTF? Don't understand at all... Fictitious heroes are all complex figures.
