I know I havent been too good with the posting lately, but, alas, it will only get worse. Another month, I will be missing. If I can sneak it, I will see about updating this thing while I am away. With that, I take leave of you and will see you all again sometime around August 8 (i think).

A bit of dialogue for you:
“Master Yoda, we’re out of Pop Tarts.”
“Oooh? So certain are you? Always the Pop Tarts can not be found.”
“But I looked in the cupboard and it’s empty.”
“Empty the cupboard is not. Absent of food it is.”
About a week ago, I finally saw the movie adaptation of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. In honor of this I give you one of my favorite Random facts yet.
” Vin Diesel understands 42.”
Thats right. I went there.
Jumping from a plane and landing safely without a parachute. As I understand it, if you get a little Italian guy to step on a maple leaf, he will put on a racoon suit that looks suspiciously like this. At least, it worked in Super Mario Brothers 3.
On a side note, I would like to make known that an eightteen inch long zuccini is more durable than you would expect. About ten bucks worth of cheap fireworks stuffed inside one do hardly any damage.
Man, really, give me a month or so and I’ll get back in the routine of updating this thing. Please don’t give up on it.
So, the forth of July, that most American of holidays, identified not only by basic cable marathons but also the legal sale and purchase of small explosives. It is remarkable to me just how hollow the whole fireworks exxperience is: a lot of commotion, loud pop, a brief sparkle, and all that remains is a whisp of smoke. Crowds ‘oooh’ and ‘aaah’ until the show is over, then they turn and slowly walk away. Those that put on the show spend the next hour picking up small burnt pieces of cardboard.
Well, on a lighter note: how much is in a sharpie?
I’m not sure if the experiment is “scientific” or not, honestly, I just found it and thought it would be humorous to post. Really, I haven’t even read it. Terrible, I know.
But something I have read: 78 Reasons to Hate Star Wars Episode I.
Ah, now here is a good use of my having seen Episode I. In all fairness, he does tear apart the other movies in the prequel trilogy. As far as the originals go, he has a few nitpicks about their retreatment in the Special Editions. A purist, a man after my own heart.
Something you really don’t have to read: If I had an office, this is how I would decorate it.
Tonight, Late Night with Conan O’Brien is a rerun from April. Jeff Goldblum is the first guest. I have decided he is clinicly insane. Good actor, but mentally ill.
He also has a thing with peaches.
