So the hubby and I saw Hancock on Saturday. I liked it. I really like Will Smith, and it was really odd to see him in the beginning of the movie. The role, itself, seems like it was written for Samuel l. Jackson, but Smith, as usual, did well. He didn't really play an asshole as convincingly as Jackson would, though, but the fact that he looked so ( Read more... )

Actually, his name on the show was William Scully. His real name was Don. S. Davis. I'll always remember the X-files episode that he (his character) died in...my favorite of all time, "Beyond the Sea'.

They need to have the same type of funeral they did for him then.

It bugs me that they didn't announce it better.

So, yeah. As my little status thingy says, I saw a couple UFOs on Friday. It wasn't just me, either, Jessie and the kids saw them, too. I'm not new to strangeness, but the other flying stuff I've seen around San Antonio was, I'm almost positive, test planes from the Air Force base. What we saw the other night, I have no explanations from. I've ( Read more... )

This has been my year for films. I have to admit that The X-Files crept up on me, and I was a little indifferent until I saw the trailer at The Incredible Hulk. I actually sorta made a "squee" sound. Does it look great? No...but it is them...and I've missed them ( Read more... )

I've been meaning to blog and gripe about students and all, and I likely will, but I've been busy and put it off. Today, however, I need to vent, and it has nothing to do with my dunderheads, except maybe that the object of my ire is the system that created them.

Thanks be to the great Gaiman for bringing to my awareness the comedic stylings of Amazon.com product reviewers.

This one got his attention: It made him "snigger like a schoolboy"

These were happily submitted by someone replying to his post: bic pen and my favorite, by far, for the eveningOh, and speaking of Amazon, anyone ever heard of ( Read more... )

To set the scene: I'm coming from the mail room. I turn the corner and see Jack and Ziba in front of our hall.

Jack (muffled): blah blah blah.

I get closer to them

Jack (loudly): Donkey Porn

Ziba:...Me: Excuse me? Did you just say Donkey Porn ( Read more... )

I've discovered that the workers at Taco Bell do not know the difference between lettuce and tomatoes...sad, really.

I've discovered that my recent obsession with the Beatles and Across the Universe have no foreseeable end in sight. My hall mates might have to gang up on me and erase the soundtrack from my hard drive ( Read more... )
