9 Volt Battery Slowly Drainer
I do feel that we can do without the tinny words. I mean, all the good words are woody. Even naughty words are woody. Intercourse. Erogenous Zones. Pert, Pert Thighs. Body. Concubine. Loose Woman.
Except Tit. Tit is a tinny word. Pity.
Caribou. Caribou gone. Long gone.
Ahhh, the life of woody words.
Oh, bloody repeats.

Minnesota?
I know it's just wind, but jeez!
On my way home tonight I stopped at Fast Break for a fill-up and the wind was having its way with me.
It even scooted a trash can/squeegee holder into my car.
Oh, let's embrace the contraction.

Look, That Thing Is Going Up Just Now
So last week I put in The Phantom Menace just to check it out with surround sound. Actually, I only have it on VHS, so it was just to listen to the really loud soundtrack with a subwoofer.
Back in 1999, every Nurd in the world was anticipating (with wood, mind you) the release of this supposedly spectacular and long awaited prequel to one of the greatest fantasy series EVER.
Unfortunately, we were greeted by Jar Jar Binks.
Now don't get me wrong, Jar Jar DOES play an integral part to the story--the Gungans help to create a diversion so the two Jedis can lead the Queen back to the throne room to stop the Trade Federation.
Also remember that when it came out, I defended Jar Jar. I knew he was pushing it, but I didn't hate him.
4.5 years later, The Phantom Menace just blows. I desperately want to believe in my heart that Lucas was being so kind to his fans as to give us 3 more Star Wars movies, but along the way, he tried to cater to small children who don't even belong in a theatre. (It also didn't keep him from making a few more millions of dollars) Kids don't get the classic subtle humor of C3PO and R2D2's almost old married couples' bickering. They have to see a goofy talking gangly creature getting his hand stuck in a pod-racer and stepping in 'poodoo.'
And it's not JUST Jar Jar. The movie is filled with tiny little moments that just make it a lighthearted disaster. I would like to take the movie, and trim scenes to make it better. Someday when I'm caught up on my work, I just will. Little bit of dialogue here, quick shot of 'comedy' there, and the movie will be just like the spirit of Episodes 4-6.
Not to just beat this into the ground, but take a look at The Empire Strikes Back, one of the Top 5 sequels EVER MADE....and then look at Phantom Menace. I mean, come on, how can the Star Wars galaxy go from Uber Goofy to Sad and Depressed in just 5 movies?
Hopefully Episode 3 will show how there is just some huge disaster that wipes out everyone so we can start over.....back in 1977 when it was pure.
Oh, I haven't seen Attack of the Clones since it came out, so I'll comment on that later.

Monday Monkey Lives For The Weekend, Sir.
Oh, that last post also applies to metrosexuals. Don't want to leave them out. Hair Nurds.
Wednesday, January 21, 2004
You're Bantha fodder.
Okay, NURDS are supposed to be tolerant of others, right? (Well, except for jocks and 'cool' people)
Well, I am a bit peeved at a certain kind of nurd: the Hair Nurd. Or, as they are more commonly known, homosexuals.
I used to use Pantene Pro V. That was it. Then one day, there are 4 different kinds of Pantene Pro V.......2 in one, conditioner, fine hair, and classic clean. I discoverd that I was a classic clean (because of my nurdy oily skin which gives my nurdy zits in various places). Then, I found this awesome shampoo called Suave for Men.......which was awesome b/c it was deep cleaning (which i needed) with a rugged scent. good stuff. Today I ran out. So I went to Wal-Mart, and to my chagrin there are now 3 types of Suave for Men--none of which are for deep cleaning--and they are expensive. You see, there are guys who use many types of product in their hair, and they have to have special shampoos. I'm a NURD, so I just need SHAMPOO!! I don't need Full Hair Formula. I need my hair to remain as uncool as possible. So I'm kinda upset with hair nurds (gay dudes) who can't just have .......shampoo.
Oh, I'm really enjoying Astronomy.

"Well, You Don't Know If I Have A Penis Or Not" --Andrew
Sigh.....
First full day of classes. Kinda sucks. I'm considering dropping my first class, b/c I don't want to do anything hard, but that would mean I would have to take an online course which would probably be just as much work. Oh well, got till Friday to decide. Oh yeah, I forgot about books, too. You see, b/c my phone got, ummm, wet, I had to buy a new one. I didn't know phones were so expensive! The last time, I got one for 30$, and that was a mail in rebate. Apparently that was just b/c of the upgrade. But I'm overdrawn by about 16.73$, which sucks. Can I sell my body to anyone?
Ok, I've realized that I've turned this blog into more of a diary than what it was intended. Hopefully I can come up with more nurdy observations and pissed off rants. Also, I'm tyring to come up with an essay about nurd sex--or lack thereof. I might get rather personal, so I'm trying to decide if that's a good thing or not. Either way, I hope to get to posting links or pasting lists of nurd lore and loves.
Oh, there is a pube in this public computer's keyboard. (at least it looks like one.)

Dr. Smith OR The Robot were NOT In The Original Pilot Of Lost In Space
2 Great Non-Sequitur/Foot In Mouth phrases in the past two weeks:
(Not Counting "Unless You Like Chinese People"........that was 3 weeks ago)
1. Matt: "I'll slap the BLACK off you!!"
Setting: Bulldog Lanes, with about 7 black people in the lane behind us. My side hurt for days from laughing.
2. Me: "I'm gonna be a GREAT old person!"
Setting: Mi Pueblo in Pontotoc, surrounded by old people at tables and booths around us. I was referring to the fact that I like buffets--All food at one price--and that Mi Pueblo is the greatest Mexican restaraunt ever.......b/c at lunch they have all you can eat MEXICAN FOOD for $5. I mean, come on, you get stuffed just ordering a meal.......now you can get all the beans and cheese dip you want......for nothing extra!! doesn't that kick butt?!
Plus, I also said something that made me laugh, but I can't remeber what it was. It was stupid, but so funny. I guess it's not worth mentioning if I can't remember it. ..........wait...
Oh yeah, I dropped my phone in the toilet the other day.

My Phone's In The Crapper
I wanted to go see Big Fish Sunday afternoon, but I didn't wake up until about 3 p.m. I had spent all day Saturday at the TV station copying movie stuff over to digital, as well as getting the new computer-run automation set up at the station. Data entry kinda sucks. I had to program about 400 individual events into the computer. Wow.
But anyway, I wasn't sure if anyone would go see Big Fish with me. After all, I couldn't call anybody to ask them, because Saturday morning I dropped my phone in the toilet. And I'm sure no one called me, b/c they couldn't have gotten through, b/c my phone fell into the toilet.
Oh, did I mention that I DROPPED MY PHONE INTO TOILET?!?
Anyway, I know Big Fish is good.......only a matter of time before I see it. And before I get a new phone.
Sometimes you just have to laugh.

You Look Like A 10-10-987 User
So ummmm......
I'm either gay or a woman, but I like watching the fab 5 on bravo.
I just wish 5 gay dudes would come to my house and make it over.......then leave.
And I like the music in the show too. Damn. I'm not cool.
Oh, and Carson isn't always annoying.

I'll Slap The Black Off You!
Sigh..........I told you.
I have fallen into the pit of the blog....I forget to update.
Or I'm too lazy.
But anyway....
I feel like David Aames right now. TECH SUPPORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTT!
Oooh oooh oooh..........
Gonna start on the ultimate cut of Ultra Run 2 and Zero Hour. Unfortunately it's gonna take tons of time just to load, b/c I've gotta convert VHS to digital. Which is just an extra step. To give you an idea of how much there is, I've got 8 VHS tapes recorded in SP mode. That makes 2 hrs. per tape. Assuming all 8 are filled out, that's gonna be 16 hrs. of footage to sort thru.
I should be doing that now rather than messing with this comp.
Oh, Andrew is my tech support.
