Month: November 2004


  • Today my brother's Mother in-law passed away. She had cancer for a while so everyone is saying that it's for the best, and she's not in pain anymore and all that. People say that but personally I think I'd be far too wussy to be brave about dying.


    Aside from that for a Monday, today wasn't too bad at all. Short weeks are a great thing!


    Somehow I went all of last week without watching the daily show so I had two hours of Jon Stewart to watch today, that was fun. God bless Tivo. I can't wait to see what he has to say about the basketball fight that happened this past weekend. I couldn't believe how many different cliche tag lines they could come up with for it. 'Basket Brawl' sounds like a pretty fun video game to me.


  • Went out last night to my second airing of an Exhumed Films presentation. These guys pick out old and bad horror movies that they have on film. I love most of the bad movies that they play but they have a rule that you aren’t allowed to talk over the movie. That’s a tall order with how much MST3K I watch.


    They played The Mansion Family and Race with the Devil. Don't waste your time with The Mansion Family unless you like lots and lots of blood. There are plenty of naked hippie types though so that kept me from walking out at least.


    Race with the Devil was awesomely bad. I was a bit depressed though. From the title I was expecting a movie where the Devil was driving and the main character was in the passenger seat racing somewhere. The better name would have been Race FROM the Devil because our heroes spent the whole movie running away. That title wouldn’t have been accurate either though since the Devil was just about never brought up. ‘Race from people who may worship the devil’ would have been the best title…


    The film broke a couple times so it was funny as the sound wound down a n d   g   o t      v     e      r      y           s      l     o    w


     


    Anywho, I’m off to see The Incredibles tonight and now I’m suddenly POed. My girlfriend wants to see it but also we heard that the trailer for the next installment of Star Wars is being shown with some of the showings so I call both local theaters to find out if one of them for sure is airing the trailer, neither of them could be bothered to get an answer to my question. One even hung up on me when I asked if there was anyone there that she could ask like a manager. Why is it that no one cares anymore about customer service, grrrr….


     

  • Wow, it’s been so long since I’ve made an entry but I read a story that totally inspired me today. Kmart is buying Sears. Now at first this doesn't mean much, but I soon realized that this is the best merger that could ever happen. If KMart is smart, when they rename the new company we could all soon be hearing, "Shop smart, shop SMart."
