"When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
But I have become comfortably numb."


Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd.


I've gone through all my old blogs and posted my stories here and here for anyone interested. And apparently my blogs are wayy too long because my eyes just fell out. There is 10 stories, 6 are done and 4 I meant to continue but didn't.

Did you know I haven't posted any stories on TV.com since Miss Hoffman passed away back in 2007? It's true and has me perplexed. I think I've written some stories since then, so I'm not sure why I didn't post. I'll have to go find them on the old harddrive

Come on, Feel the noise - Quiet Riot

-There's been a lot of news about a poor abducted girl. It's very sad. Unfortunately I watched 'Otis' the other day and now I know some of the strange things an abducter might do to a hostage.
Kim: He didn't rape me; we mostly danced to Blue Oyster Cult.

-Sims 3 has been pirated 2 weeks before going on sale. *spit-take* Some argue that EA is doing it for publicity, others say it's an incomplete build, and lots of people say it's broken. I was tempted to download it, but that game is like crack and I just don't have the time for it. ... Oh, and thievery is bad.

What I don't understand is the complainers who call it inferior, spastic, not finished, bad, broken, doubleplussungood.. Are the thieves in a position to judge someone else's hard work? It seems .. ungrateful. It's like:
Complainers: Hey EA, we stole your game, now we're gonna tell you how much we hate it before you can even sell your first copy. Aren't we poncy?

TV news:
-Smallville, SPOILER ALERT, it sucked. This season was building up for an awesome finale and they fumbled the ball at the last second. Now I gotta change my banner because "Henry" Olsen is retconned out of logic.

-I know a user pointed out that 90210 is retarded, but it's still entertaining. And most of the actors are my age, in their twenties. (One guy is even 30 with his character at 17!) The finale was a blast, I won't ruin the surprises, but the cliff-hanger is ... hangery.

-Apparently TV.com wants to kill Disco Stu, Meg Griffin, and implied Lisa Simpson.

-I can't tell if Greek got rid of their character yet because 2 characters have disappeared into the ether and it might've been 1 of them. (Or get rid of both, neither would be missed.)

-Normally I'm a fan of South Park, but this season is disturbing. I guess they're trying to get cancelled..?

Well, it's April. You know what that means? *puts away winter clothes, gets out bike* Springtime! *starts snowing* .... Oh yeah!? *puts away spring clothes, gets out winter coat* *walks outside* Now whose laughing!!! *tiny pieces of ice start to cut face* Me. That's who. I am laughing.

I guess April snowfall brings May dead-flowers. See this cat? *points out tiny black kitten with green eyes* I always see her when I go out, sitting in a pile of garbage next to an appartment building. I think she's a stray, no collar. *feeds her pieces of energy bar* I'd like to take her in, but I have bad luck with animals. There's like a million things she could easily choke on. *pets cat and walks away*

*Walks out of Zellers* I just returned a pair of silly pants that I'd worn for 15 hours & didn't like. $30 back to me. But I can't return this sunscreen I've never used because it was already open when I bought it. Contaminants. .. Still, it's odd if you consider both at once: Used full return; unused no return.

*Walks into Canadian tire* This lady just told me I can't bring my backpack inside and need to leave it with her. She got really offended when I took everything out because I thought she'd steal my stuff. I don't know why she's upset, she just called me a potential thief; Why can't I do the same?
*I always have trouble at Canadian Tire. It's like they can smell my rookiness.

*holds up 2 bottles of ketchup* These are both $2.99. This one is 750ML and this one 1L, but same price. Know the difference? *puts 1 bottle upside-down* Ah. You get half the volume because the design is different. That makes (no) sense.

*walking home* It's dark, but no worries. This city is so tame. The only "thieves" are teens with plastic-knives and play-guns. I'm probably more threatening with a bottle of ketchup in an e-friendly bag. *holds up cloth bag dangerously*

*2 hours later, the stray cat is still there* *cat tries to follow me home* Sorry kitty! Go back! I don't want to call the RCPCA because they'll just put her to sleep. *sad*

*hands you a hamburger* Tasty, eh? I haven't had these in a while. Beef, Pickles, Mustard, Mayonaise, Ketchup, Hot Sauce, Hot Peppers, Onions, all on a Kaiser bun with orange cheese. Enjoy!

Hamburger


TV news:
-Greek is back, apparently one of the cast is leaving but IDK who yet. (I'll wait and see. Could be Cappie?)
-They cancelled Frisky Dingo, funniest cartoon since the original Bugs Bunny & Tweety Show. I still haven't seen Xticles but I'm sure it's also gold.
-Smallville is getting pretty interesting. Doomsday and Mercy.
-I SWEAR The Simpsons are funny again. I'm not sure how it happened, it's like they care now!

Clue
Clue; the movie! I know it sounds like a really bad idea to base a movie on a board game. But in this case, it's really funny slapstick black humor that completely forgets it's laminated-cardboard-self, while still keeping some common elements...

Along Came a Spider
This movie has it's pros and cons. Even though it's a Cop movie, I like it. It builds up suspense and makes you question the motives of every character that isn't Morgan Freeman. On the other hand, the plot is over-the-top silly and contains some...

The Transformers: The Movie
Overall, I like this movie. It's nostalgic and also features huge space robots that turn into things.

Wow, why is this a kid's movie? I mean, I understand the reasoning: a 2-hour movie designed to make kids pay for a movie ticket,...

Superhero Movie
Wow, this movie is surpisingly good. I was expecting it to be a piece of carp like 'Meet the Spartans' or 'Epic Movie', but this is much better. Heck, it's even better than Scary Movies 3 or 4.

It's got some moments that are pretty...

Drowning Mona
This is a pretty good movie if you give it a chance. It starts out with the most hated woman in a small-town, Mona Dearly, driving her son's car off a cliff. It's quickly established that this car accident was no accident, and almost everyone in...
