URUGUAY IS BLEEDING X-FILES!



Hi, I am the president of the X-Files Fan Club here in Montevideo, Uruguay. Sorry if my English is not good enough, but I will try to make it short...
I saw "I Want to Believe," and I felt that I was living all the wishes that I have had since Mulder and Scully first met!!!
The scene in the bed shocked me -- I didn´t see it coming!!!
The need to be supported by something, maybe religion, maybe science or something in between... the very first time we see Mulder and Scully having a fight as a real couple, Scully´s solid decision on take the chance on science instead of pursuing premonitions or Mulder´s own quest.
The film give us two stories with a common link, the need to keep steady on our own, to seek out the truth no matter what!!!
I have more impressions, but I fear that maybe I won't express them in the right sense of the words, becauseof my English... Sorry...!!!!
I have attached a photo of my wrist. I was tattooed on December 22, 1999. I took the typographic "X" from one of the "X-Files" books that I have, carried it to the artist... he couldn´t believe his eyes!!!!! Till today some people thought that my name started with an X, when I explain that the tattoo is for the series they give me "the look" = "are you crazy?"... "not really, why the X?"... and some things like that. It's still funny, almost 10 years later... and the other photo is from 1998, when I got the "Scully haircut"... yes, I really got it, and I took a picture beside the XF poster... sorry for the pose, maybe it´s not my best shot... ;-)
Don´t forget Latin America, we really love all the XF team!!!
Sincerelly,
