Went and saw Wreck it Ralph with the wife tonight. If you have kids go see it! If you don’t have kids but have played video games at some point in the past 30 years, go see it! I thought it was great and very heartwarming.
Had to sit through a crappy movie preview for Matt Daemon’s newest POS but other than that, it was a nice evening.
My younger Sun and his wife went to see it during the Thanksgiving holiday. I got to stay home and babysit my Grand Sun, so I really love that movie. (P.S. The kids liked it, too)
Uncle Joe says, “To heck with this vice president crap. I’m president material!! [Read: I can pretend to be a seeker of truth no matter from where it comes and then transmogrify into an arrogant sonuvab!tch and dismiss out of hand anyone or anything that questions or threatens my absolute power]. For the sake of the peepul and for God’s sake, I say, ‘Down with guns and whatever Senator Feinstein says!’ Now spread ‘em!”
Glenn Reynolds has a new article in USA Today on homeschooling. Trends like this I find encouraging, such as the possibility of thirty-two states opting out of running O-care exchanges. It’s likely going to be movement at the state and local levels that will be most effective in battling future federal encroachment. Other than that, let it burn, and may creative destruction cometh.
And Jindal is fixin’ to reduce or eliminate state income and corporate taxes in LA. What a guy! Zydeco & Jambalaya & getting to keep your own money for everyone!!
If I had a third Sun, he would look like Stewart Mills. Thanks for this, Scott M. I’m sending to older Sun and everyone else I know. I wish I had one of those “stores” in my neighborhood.
Good little flick, nice job by Garcia for getting it made. I’m a sucker for Julianna Marguiles, though. Pretty sure it’s available on Netflix streaming still, too.
Great movie. Gorgeous to look at, and a powerful statement on how socialism, despite its good intentions, destroys everything beautiful about a society.
If any of you SoCals are thinking of coming to Vegas this weekend, you may want to rethink the roadtrip. It’s 29 degrees here now headed for a high of 41, and then down to 20 tonight. Unless, of course, you want to iceskate on lake -fritz-! I was at Primm(Stateline for you oldtimers) earlier this morning and it was 19 degrees out there!
Fritz, there’s a british page 3/swimsuit model that’s coming to the SHOT show that was complaining on-line about the temps being freezing there, see what you can do about that will you.
If you’ve despaired of the state of the visual arts in Western culture (that is, if you can’t tell the difference between sh*t and what’s considered art these days), your concerns are entirely justified:
A brick suspended by a chain from the ceiling to about two inches above a piece of canvas on the floor, was part if an “art” exhibition at our local library. This type of hoax has been going on for years. Ever been to the Guggenheim museum?
Yes, I’ve been to the Guggenheim and the building’s architecture is your first clue. I needed the Guggenheimlich maneuver after taking in the dreck. Gag.me.
Only Biden would use insensitive metaphors like “silver bullet” for the lib’s anti-gun fiasco. Now his boss and he are saying, “no silver back,” for the middle class.
F-F-F-F-F-Faust. Fausto Carmona.

Was it in Chinese?
Chinese subtitles.

Coffee, krullers and Biden’s “silver bullet!” What was he thinking? Are we fighting vampyre here?
Oh, yes, and

He’s running in 2016.

Why not? The presidency has become a cartoon lately anyway, albeit not a funny cartoon, but a cartoon nevertheless!
Biden-Reid 2016!
Don’t you ever say that again, Scott!

Harry does have a point.
The best part of that scene to me, are the looks Calahan gives when he’s constantly interrupted.
Maybe Lars knows this outfit

Mills Fleet Farm is a truly splendid chain of hardwarish big box stores. Kind of like Home Depot for farmers.
Got a DVD the other day called “The Lost City”,Andy Garcia.Anyone seen it?…I haven’t yet.
Good little flick, nice job by Garcia for getting it made. I’m a sucker for Julianna Marguiles, though. Pretty sure it’s available on Netflix streaming still, too.
Garcia’s good people.

So it’s about San Francisco!
One of the worst natural disasters in US history

He hated John Lindsey too.

Hell,Fritz,it was in the 60s here last night,rainy.
We here in NorCal are experiencing this global warming ourselves. It’s Bush’s fault.

Of course it’s cold out there, my old unit is training at the NTC right now. I think there is some kind of law to that effect.
Sucks like a Hoover apparantly

That creep Penn is enough to keep me away.
Most people don’t know this, Scott, but “I Am Sam” was actually composed of documentary footage of Sean Penn.
He’s an ugly little bastard,isn’t he?
Your morning Connie Britton

“That was a Shakespeare in the Park production of Julius Caesar, you moron! You killed five actors – good ones!”
Sorry, wrong movie.
but still a good line.

Actually,some Bama boozer did smash that trophy…typical.

When *no one* can distinguish between a collection of garbage and an “objet d’art”, you know you’ve hit rock-bottom.

Looks like a giant Disneyland ride.
Frank Lloyd Wrong for you.
Gorilla Sales Skyrocket After Latest Gorilla Attack

Biden says “no silverback” on dealing with gorilla violence.

And no joy in Mile-High-Ville tonight. Poor Peyton. He’s so lovable.
When Manning threw that interception somewhere Tony Romo smiled.
Manning went exactly as far in the playoffs as Tebow. Just a prettier Miss Congeniality
Tebow actually won a game.
