Some time last night my car was egged and now the paint is screwed up.


WTF? Why? Why the hell do people have to do shit like that? Go egg your own friggin car you moron! GRRRRR I try to take care of my car and then some one friggin EGGS IT!

One egg. One stinking egg that if I get it fixed will probably cost hundreds of dollars to repair!

If there is karma in the verse, this person should get bit on the ass. Literally by a dog.

Literally.


Or attacked by a rabid squirrel.

BATMAN! Hahaha.

Or Harry Dresden.

Robin's net is back down... :(

Robin's offline, quite literally - Her power as of right now is still out. In case anyone was wondering. :-)

It will be the second night of Hanukkah tonight but since my mom works today we did the gifts already. Yesterday I got a Kitchen Aid mixer (they look like and were created by the same people that make Hobart mixers which I use at work) and 3 jars of chutney in differant flavors. I gave my mom a big box of different trail mixes. (Don't laugh, the scales will even out lol)

Tonight I got a DVD-Writer and the new James Bond game. She got a terabyte drive for her desktop and a wireless network card for her laptop.

I kinda like this a few gifts at a time business... lol It's like ooh what's next tomorrow.


Interesting note: There is a Hanukkah station on XM Radio. Also Rabbi Bob Alper. FUNNY.

Duh cigarettes. And those of you "oh how could they" Um...they already are in most major cities and whole states.

It's coming.

Do I agree with it? No. But that doesn't mean much lol

How about at this New York Walmart where Black Friday sales seekers TRAMPLED to death an employee?

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/29/business/29walmart.html

This is horrible, and it seems like something like this happens EVERY YEAR!

The sales are not THAT good! They're not worth this!


Walmart AND the shoppers should be ashamed of themselves.

Went, voted, no line at _all_  but there were was a person running for the council that was  actually hanging around the voting place entrance.  

No stickers. :( 

*blink*

So... I was watching Clinton "stump" for Obama on CNN in Nevada. And some country song "only in america" is playing. Then after I got bored of him shaking hands I clicked on the Palin campagning in Colorado video (both were live feeds) and THE SAME SONG is playing at different points in the song.  And it's not something CNN was doing. I thought that was kinda amusing.

I've to admit though - Clinton does speak as well as we remember he did. Bush makes you forget that poloticians are supposed to be GOOD at talking.  It's usually a thing we use against them - that they just are so slick they can make anything sound good. 

Okay so I just watched the trailer for Repo! The Genetic Opera.    First of all - what made me aware of it was a TV Guide headline that read "Does Paris Hiltion have the pipes for opera."  

So right away you KNOW this isn't a normal opera.    

So after a quick google of "Repo Opera"  Get it?   Anyway, found the official site and saw a poster for where they'd be playing this and there is good ole' ASH (Buffy, Doctor Who)  !   Now if you aren't a fan of his ( and by fan I mean know what he's been in the past and own his album)  you may not realize that not only can he sing - he sings really well.   So WTF is he doing in a movie with PARIS HILTON!?  

Singing as the title character.   It looks extremely cheesey but I think probably that's the point.  So likely it will be good gory fun.  Maybe Hilton's not quite as dumb as we all thought (ie: the dumb blond routine's an act....)

HAH  duh, Stephen Colbert. I mean, come on  I watch FOX news all day.

...wait you mean Colbert's not really....OMG!!!!  That's it...I'm never watching the Colbert Report again!

...in other news.

This is pathetic. Just...pathetic. Someone/group is trying to intimidate people not to vote by way of using fear of being arrested.




This is from Philadelphia.

There are other things that are all sorts of ways people go about trying to get people to not even bother voting. It's pathetic. People are so afraid their candidate will loose that they lower themselves to this nonsense.

No one but poll workers should be able to challenge a person's right to vote. This being out of incorrect registration or other legal legitimate reasons...

Register.

Vote.

So in ABC's reimagining of the BBC's Life on Mars, Philip Glenister's character of Gene Hunt is NOT being played by Colm Meany. :( Instead they've recast the role with Harvey Keitel. I've heard the name but...I don't quite see it as much as I did with Meany - an irish american cop seemed like a duh American version of the Gene Genie.

Michael Imperioli of Sopranos fame looks more like Chris Skelton then whom they've actually cast him - Ray Carling.

Johnathan Murphy, who's been in...exactly nothing I've ever seen is Chris.

And much like the rest of the cast (except for Imperioli and Keitel) Annie is played by a actress I've never heard of; Gretchen Mol.

So we'll see how that goes.

And in another advert I saw on BBCAmerica, British Airways Terminal 5 (in Heathrow I imagine?) is filled with water, fishes whales and....turtles.)

...yeah.

So... Yesterday was my birthday. 28 years old. Heh

Kind of a *shrug* age. Long since old enough to do what I want, but still young enough for people not to take me seriously. I guess that's something of a time old thing - it happens everywhere, people older then you don't take you seriously because you're younger and can't possibly know as much as they do.


I got a cool coat and blue tooth earbuds. I also got a birthday cake:



And my cat, Eric enjoyed the ribbon from my presents:

So it's episode two of Knight Rider this week and I still want to love the show.

However, that said...PLEASE GET RID OF THE BLUESCREEN DRIVING sequences! They're AWEFUL! Kitt isn't even ON THE ROAD half the time because the footage is so bad.

I beg you Knight Rider makers, PLEASE stop making these awful scenes!! The old show probably had only a quarter of your budget and some how made do -surely you can! Get Michael out in a car ON THE STREET and stop with this nonsense! The race scene is just...AWFUL I mean, one minute in attack mode the windows are pitch black, the next they're clear. GAWD. They edited better (not much I grant you but still) back in the 80s!

At least it wasn't quite as GLARINGLY awful as it is in this show. Just...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get rid of the blue screens, Green screens, whatever they are. They're really bad. Yuck.

But then, THEN after the really stupid green screen races...they remind viewers they remember the old show and do this:


It's only a few seconds but SQUEEEEEE LOL

But also this keeps me watching too I think:


While I think Sara and Kitt go at it way better, Michael and Kitt are starting to work well together.

Yes it's a cheesy show but that's ok. :-)

So I'm slightly worried by the less then turbo ratings Knight Rider got for it's first ep.

Yes, the show is cheesy but that's the appeal I figure. To much tv takes it self way to seriously.

So check out Knight Rider. I mean come on, Val Kilmer is Kitt! (I'm pineing for a Kitt meets Kitt episode. Or new kitt poses as old kit (if it can turn into a pickup it can turn into a t-top LOL)

Well my mom is an editor at a newspaper so...pretty darn important! I think it will be a while before print fully dies if ever - The newspaper is still the cheapest way to get information about the goings on of the world. And because of this, it will have an audience for a good while.

When you see this, post another Buffy quote in your LJ. Let's see how long this can go on.


Ah but there are so many...And you know mostly all Spike ones...



However my favorite Spike line is of course from Lover's Walk:

"You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both. You'll fight, you'll shag and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. Love isn't brains children, it's blood. Blood screaming inside you to work its will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it."
