Here are some fun facts, questions and observations of no significance:
- I can’t decide whether Summer Heights High is brilliant or the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen (next to Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, which nothing can ever be stupider than). Realizing that Ja’mie and Mr. G. are basically the same character (I know they’re played by the same person… that’s not what I’m talking about) makes me lean toward the latter.
- Whatever happened to Matt Leinart? Too much of this, I guess:

Stolen fromCredit to some site somewhere… can’t remember which one.But to lose your status as The Next Great Thing and Savior Of The Franchise to Kurt Freakin Warner, he of the jesus freakedness, washed upedness and psychotic wifeness, is really really telling of how much of a loser you turned out to be. He sure had it good while he was on top though, that’s for sure.
- My right thigh is bigger than my left thigh. If we were talking about hands, wrists, and/or forearms it’d make sense than my right was larger than my left, but I have no idea how it happened to my leg.
- I know Tom Cruise is even more scarily psychotic than Kurt Warner’s wife, and I can’t look at him — even as a character in a movie — and not think about what a nutjob Xenu believing, Katie Holmes zombifying maniac he is, but Valkyrie looks like a movie I’d want to see. It’s interesting how Valkyrie is being promoted though. The trailer goes to pains to explain the story is good, even if crazy Cruise is playing the lead.
- My Christmas travel plans are thus: Drive to upstate New York on 12/23 (with a trip back down to NYC while I’m up there); come back to Baltimore the evening of 12/27, attend the Ravens/Jaguars game on 12/28 for my kid’s birthday (hopefully it’ll be a meaningful game); drive down to Williamsburg, VA on 12/29 to spend a few days (including New Year’s Eve) at the Great Wolf Lodge; come home. It boils down to at least 17 hours in a van with two kids (maybe three on the VA leg of the trip) who can’t sit still for 10 minutes. Should be fun and relaxing.
- I am now able to fill the gas tank in my car (not the van) for under $20. I have no incentive to not drive my ass off. And with the flipping out OPEC nations promising to drop production by 1,000,000 barrels a day to try to jack the price of oil back up that just means there’ll be more oil to tap when the next crisis hits. Suck it enviro-freaks! And especially suck it Iran and Venezuela, who need $90/barrel oil prices to balance their budgets and support anti-USA activities.
