Really?..You don't say...Idiot...


The Summertime brings out many things. Flowers, tourists, bathing suits and convertible, are all in steady abundance from the months of June to the end of August. It also brings out that one guy who always needs to comment on the weather. More specifically it's that "funny guy" who always asks if it's hot enough for you....Moron.

Random Guy:" Warm out today...Hot enough for ya?(chuckle,chuckle)

Me(in my head): "Look here you fucking imbecile, I am sweating my ass off , my shirt is sticking to my back because just driving is making me sweat and I am doing everything in my power NOT to fucking slap you upside the head. I have a question to for you, is your ass big enough for my foot to go up that's what's going to happen next if you make one more comment about how hot it fucking is!"

Me(actual response): yup...Too hot damn it...

There should be a law that when people ask this dumb-ass fuckin question that, we can slap them silly without any consequences..I betcha Bono asks this question when he's in Ethiopia...

Anyway enough about the hot weather. It is way to hot to be infront of this machine for long, especially since they are doing construction on the out side of the building that is forcing me to have the windows and doors closed. Also it's Friday which means it's poker night so have to get ready for that.

But I did want to share a few things. I have recently been spending a lot of time at Youtube.com. This sight is damn hilarious. Below are two links to stuff I have found or been shown at the site. One I sent out in an email to those on the list(sorry if you've seen it..But it still makes me laugh) and the other is something new...That I dedicate to the Heterolife mate...

Clip One(about 4min)


Clip2(about 7 min..but worth it. Also not for children or work)

That's it for now..Nothing too interesting but oh well...

Another day...Another list


Not having much to think about, leads to some good thoughts. And being on holidays you force yourself to not think about much in the way of important things. This is what led to today's post.

Last week my brother showed me this definition of the word "uppity", a word that I like and so best describes so many damn people. Trust me when I say that working in the "people business" you meet alot of "uppity" people. The definition went like this:

"up·pi·ty (p-t)
adj. Informal
Taking liberties or assuming airs beyond one's station; presumptuous: "was getting a little uppity and needed to be slapped down" New York Times."

The last part is what made me laugh the most, and is the basis of today's list..a list of people that need to be slapped down, for no other reason than that they annoy the hell outta me.

1. Dr. Phil- Please one of the most "uppity" bitches out there..

2. Oprah- I don't need the Queen of living right telling me how to live...

3. Nancy Grace- Have you seen this lady on CNSendsends shivers down my spine and makes me feel like Bruce Banner after someone slashes his tires..

4.Montel Williams- Good Lord..I have never seen a whiter black guy..

5.Bill O'Reilly- Really is the devil's handyman I think...Lives in own little world...

What is it with these daytime T.V hosts that make them want to tell us how to live. "Oh Look at me I am Oprah damn it...I know everything...uppity bitch...Just you got "Oprah size money"(and Oprah size is rather larger..if you know what I'm sayin..)that you live the path of rightousness.Forget people thinking Superman is based on Christ, Oprah thinks she is Christ. Please I want to see the skeletons in her closet.There has to be something underneath the chocolate cake pans and Ho-Ho wrappers. These people just make me mad...That's my rant I guess...

P.S.- Thought I would include Bono didn't you...

In from the land of Gonzo...


If there is one thing that will take your mind of anything, it's a trip into the wild, depraved and funny world of the King of Gonzo, Hunter.S.Thompson. I picked up "Hey, Rube" at this great used book store just down the street from Jen's house here in Victoria. I have been kinda immersed in it, but as with any Hunter book you kinda need to take a step back and out of the Gonzo world and just take a deep breath before you head back in for another dose. This is where my day is at. Time to take a breath so I thought I would put the good Doctor down for a moment and spew my thoughts on a few things that have been goin on in the real world.


First and foremost, I want touch on the new Superman movie, "Superman Returns". Now the BoyWonder posted about it after we saw it last week(my Second Viewing) and for his thought you can check it out here(Look-Up in the sky).

Like the Boywonder I too am a big fan of this movie. As a comic book fan(i.e Geek)I have always had an appreciation for the character, though not always at the top of my read list. I am a fan of the 1978 version directed by Richard Donner,and Bryan Singer obviously was too having based this sequel on the continuity of Superman and Superman 2(because we all know that there was no Superman 3&4). Singer, who of course directed the first 2 X-Men movies and the Classic "Usual Suspects", did a great job of this. It was a good story, they handled the characters and source material very well. But the thing that really stands out in this movie is that it looks..Well..Amazing. I am very much in the same boat as the Sidekick on this one and have to say the movie looks beautiful. I won't go on about it because I know there are those that haven't seen it yet and I don't want to spoil anything. But the only thing I didn't like about it?...I will only say this..The Kid...I will leave it at that.

The second big thing that has been going on this summer is the new "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie. It took two nights to get into this movie but Jen, Bish and I finally saw it Sunday night and we still had to wait in line for an hour or so. The following that this movie has is amazing. Did I think it was a better movie than "Superman Returns"? No..But it was entertaining. I am a fan of the Johnny Depp character(Captain Jack Sparrow) and the effects were good. Overall it was worth my $9.95, I thought it was amazing the amount of money this movie made in the opening weekend 132 million, but when looking at the demographic of people at this thing it truly crossed all lines and appealed to all ages so the amount didn't surprise me after that. I felt a little jipped at the end though..Won't spoil it for anybody. It may have made more money than Superman, but in this humble geek's opinion it's not the better movie. See both if you can ,but if only one..Be sure to catch Supes on the big screen.

Those were the two movies that people were looking forward to this summer. I was one of those that was very much looking forward to Superman, but it came and now the only other thing to look forward to in the realm of movies this summer is this...click Here... and I can honestly say I am actually looking more forward to this than I was Superman..And all though most will have seen this and even thought it is a year away..I can't wait...click Here



What else..right The World Cup is over...finally...and they say the Stanley Cup playoffs are too long. Now can we please get back to our regular schedule of afternoon poker or anything else for that matter. Sure it was kinda interesting. Yes I actually watched a game or two. But please peole say the NHL needed more scoring...I think that ...ahh who cares I won't even get into it...

There has been other (more important) stuff goin on I know...Harpo and Georgie Porgie getting together(now there was a picture of evil), Cops getting shot in Sask,a flurry of free agent signings and retirings in the NHL, but thats it for now..The original Superman is on the movie channel right now(Ms. Deskmacherrrrrrrrr)and I need a Diet Coke before I re-enter the world of Gonzo.. so for now I will leave it there.....

It's that time folks...



I am out damn it.No more stupid customers, no more stupid employees. Yup that's right it is that wonderful time of the year when I have the next 9 days off. As of 7pm P.S.T I am officially on holidays. What am I doing you ask?

Heading to the Vic-town(Denny's Bish?) to spend the week with Jen. Can't wait only 9 hours to go. I will be back however, and hopefully get back toposting regularly, but for now time to recharge the proverbial batteries....wonder if I could get away with calling in sick today..
