but know it's totally awful. I could tell from the preview when I was forced to sit through Alvin and the Chipmunks (blame my brothers). Really. I use to love watching this cartoon late at night on Cartoon Network when my mom would go out dancing on Saturday nights and this old lady use to watch me (her definition of watching was sleep while I watched TV). But I'll excuse this just once becau...
Klinger in the Morning ©2008 aired 5/9/08 on WLUP 97.9 FM Chicago
I never knew until about a year ago that Jonathan Brandmeier, a fine Catholic boy raised in Wisconsin, is of Lebanese heritage. There are other well known famous Lebanese Americans including Jamie Farr aka Corporal Klinger from MASH. We make fun of Johnny when we say he looks like Klinger. Johnny looks more like Paul Anka. I found out on 5/11/08 that this song was aired 5/9/08. I submitt...
I've got a soft spot of reality shows. I don't like the reality shows that are basically talent shows like American Idol but I do like the sort that are behind the scenes or making of. One of the ones that I liked the best was the third season of Project Greenlight. I've got a soft spot for independent film makers and I've also got a soft spot for horror films. So it is little wonder that ...
This is embarrasing, but recently I've been spacing out for a few minutes. Sometimes while on the middle of doing something I just stop and do nothing, and it's been bothering me for a while. Anyone else out there spacing out like this? In any case I think it's harmless but it's quite annoying. Good thing it doesn't happen when I'm with people, otherwise I'd die of embarassment. Then again, I ...
Saw Iron Man Friday night. I really liked it. First of all, it was the perfect thing to do on a rainy night after a long week. Secondly, it's a fun movie - smart but doesn't require you to think, lots of actions and things that go "kerplam!", and funny. I highly recommend it. Oh, and you'll want to stay through the end of the trailers. There's a little easter egg of sorts at the very end. The ...
Pre-planned Movie activity - weekly therapist planned weekend activity.
April 12, 2K8 Pierre informed Ananda that Pat indicated that there is a movie that Walter wants to see and he directed me to a note that was on the refrigerator. The note indicated that Walter wanted to see the movie Nims Island (2008) that was a family fantasy adventure. Walter indicated that he wanted to see the movie. We decided to follow through with the activity at the Garden State Plaza...
Week in Cupertino over and done with. Spent most of the last day with Bene talking about her team and then had over an hour long meeting with new boss Lenny. Went well but will see what org changes he makes over the next months. After work was finished me, Frank, James, Stephen and our ex-colleague Terry went to a pub called The Duke of Edinburgh. It was a dive but they had beer and was near...
My final project for Intermediate Flash. I had to create a project where one could change properties on an object using buttons. You had to change the position of the object constantly while a button was pressed, as well as transparency (alpha). You also had to demonstrate turning the object's visibility off and on via buttons, as well as resetting everything. I chose to drive a little Pac Man ...
I went and saw this movie with Lorelai and a friend and her son last night. The movie was un-flipping-believable. Now, granted, I don't read comics (but I'm going to!) and I don't know how true to the comic books the movie is, but that.movie.RAWKED! Lorelai and I were giving each other high fives through the whole thing. She loved it. Now. On a more Goldie level, Robert Downey Jr. was SO...
I've been slacking in my movie-watching lately. I blame the fact that I can barely keep up with my TiVo -- I mean, I'm a month behind on Lost, for crying out loud. I also can't remember the last movie I saw in the theaters. As always, in no particular order: 16) Cold Creek Manor (Dennis Quaid, Sharon Stone, Kristen Stewart, Stephen Dorff): I ranked this two stars on Netflix. I wish there was ...
