Movies

Sunday, December 23rd, 2007

      am officially on pins and needles for both Iron Man and Hellboy II: the Golden Army. I must admit, I’m mostly fan-girling over Hellboy, though. I mean, the Iron Man trailer rocks and all, and I love me some Robert Downey Jr, but, you know. Hellboy. Ron Perlman. Ron Perlman as a huge, crabby, [...]

Insomnia

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

     t’s 7:30 in the morning, and thanks to the charming little cold I’ve picked up, I can’t sleep. I was actually dead to the world up until about an hour ago, but I woke up just enough for small things to begin to settle in. My back ached a little. My nose was a little [...]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Sunday, July 22nd, 2007

     on’t worry, I’m not going to spoil it!
     Friday night, under threat of death, my staff got me out of the restaurant at ten after close. It helped considerably that we were dead slow. Between Harry Potter and several other events in town, there was no business.
     I got to the local Barnes & Nobel about 11:30 [...]

Die Hard

Thursday, July 5th, 2007

     irst up, there’s a new shirt in the site store: “The World Needs Anger. The world often continues to allow evil because it isn’t angry enough.” — Bede Jarrett, House of Gold.
     Second, I went to see Die Hard: Live Free or Die Harder last night, and it was great! Lots of things blew up really [...]

Updating

Sunday, June 17th, 2007

     irst, a quick plug for the site store, where I’m offering a few new items. Now available: a “Pirate King” t-shirt and button, a “Floppy & Toodles in 2008″ t-shirt (I drew the clowns — you can tell, because they suck.), and a creation science t-shirt and bumper sticker. The Pirate King t-shirt has a [...]

Movie Day

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

      declared yesterday to be Movie Day. There were a couple of movies out that I wanted to see in the theater, that Art wasn’t particularly interested in. So, since he had to work yesterday, and I didn’t, I decided I’d hit the local movie theater and play catch-up.
     I went to see Shrek the Third [...]

Pirates, Dogs, and Money

Sunday, June 3rd, 2007

     oly crap! A bunch of people actually bought my pirate t-shirt! Seven people bought it. I have made seven dollars in my store. In, um, slightly less than a year.
     Yeah. Not so impressive when you think about it like that. But hey! People bought my stuff!
     Since I missed walking the last couple of days, due [...]

Birthday & An Inconvenient Truth

Tuesday, March 20th, 2007

     eenage Ninja Mutant Mosquitoes — Researchers are excited and hopeful because they have succeeded to genetically engineer a mosquito that is resistant to malaria. Furthermore, the modified insect survives better than its disease-carrying ‘brethren’ and the gene is transmitted to future generations.
     The scientists working on this project are still trying to get the gene they’ve [...]

     fter gaming last night, Art, MrJames, and I went to catch the midnight premiere of 300 — great movie! I’m not going to bother with spoiler warnings, as there isn’t a whole hell of a lot of spoiling to do with this movie. It’s a pretty straight forward affair, and everyone knows the Spartans don’t [...]

We Have Wii!

Saturday, March 3rd, 2007

     o, our tax refund, and Art’s bonus from work, had come in. With this money, we most responsibly paid off both vehicles, two of our credit cards, and did some maintenance on the Olds. After doing this (and thus lowering our monthly bills by, like, $200.00 or so, yay!), we found that we still had [...]
