Christmas Round-Up

I had a great Christmas. Among other things I got an XBOX, which is pretty cool in my opinion. I have been playing The Third Age and Halo 2. I own The Third Age, so I am pretty far. Right now I am defending Osgiliath with Faramir's measly help. I want to try Fable next, since I've heard good things about it.

Also has anyone read Dune, or seen the movie? It is pretty wierd, but kind of hynotic also.

I haven't watched much tv, except Fear Factor or Just Shoot Me late at night. That is what happens when all I do is play a console.

Christmas Time is Buzzing in my Skull

I drove the long drive yesterday. In doing so I discovered the secret to staying up beyond your natural ability - caffeine. Unfortunately I drank too much and had to stop a whole bunch to use the bathroom, which coincidently keeps you awake also.

I have no other news, except that I saw Lemony Snicket's movie, which didn't really have much of Mr. Snicket in it. It was a decent flick, I wish it had a few more lizards and unfortunate events in it. I thought Jim Carrey was funny, and it didn't look like Harry Potter, or Shrek. I liked it. It was good, clean fun.

I drink water for free at work.

The Real Reality Show

Last night I watched like 4 hours of the tube. First I watched the LOST, which was pretty good, but I wish it was just a movie so that I could learn what is going on faster instead of in ten years when the show ends. Also I watched "The Real Gilligan's Island", it was of course addicting crap tv of the highest degree. I wanted Ginger Rachel to stay on the show but she got voted off because of her ravishing former marriage to Rod Stewart and because for a model she showed surprising cunning in the intricacies of the game. Now I hope the Skipper Jim wins because he has a beard and doesn't look like a model or anyone on tv these days.

Since this a undercover blog I have to go, although oftimes my boss thinks I'm checking my email with this page.

The Latest Antics of LOTR fans

So I just got back from Wal-Mart like 5 hours ago where it was impossible to buy a copy of The Return of the King The Extended Edition (TROTKTEE). Fortunately I had my people buy one for me last night at the earliest possible convience. Hence, I watched all four hours of it tonite before coming here to work, and blog. Of course, like the others it was awesome, especially the added scenes with Gilbert Grape, and the Fogler. The best is when Fogler tells Aragorn to try the New Southwestern Philly Mc Cheesy Chicken Club Slub Special with only four grams of orc blood in it and Aragorn turns slowly to the Fogler and tells him that his sandwich was ruined by the Witch King. Wait, wait this is the best part. Fogler stands up and whips something quickly out from under his "Sandwich Artist" green shirt and says, "IT HAS BEEN REMADE!" and Aragorn smiles.

I am glad that they added some new scenes, I'm also glad that they didn't add anything to the ending which took too long as it was anyway.

New Christmas Ornaments

I wish someone would get me a Christmas ornament with a Christmas Sagat. Or a Christmas Spider - whatever that is.

So this weekend I made a couple of guys pass out either because of my rugged good looks or because of the needle I was sticking in their arm. It was embarrassing.

I watched Spiderman 2, which is a good flick.

I'm tired.

Mirth of the Blox

Currently, I am at work. My boss is here and so this is a covert blog, and will be, necessarily, put into morse code. ...---... Doesn't that mean SOS?

It's snowing here, and there are miles to go before I sleep.

Also, I watched a top notch crappy movie on Saturday morning called Final Destination. It was obviously made for someone who has difficulty grasping the concept of foreshadowing, because there was so much of it that I could turn the channel and watch a complete episode of Fear Factor and still follow the story. The only cool part of the movie was the airplane crash scene, or premonition of the the crash vision, or forescene. If any of you have the chance to watch it, I wouldn't choose to watch it over anything else, except a Lifetime movie possibly.

Well, got to go, or I'll get the boot, or to lick the boots.

Forgotten Christmas Hero

Like so many "Forgotten" things at Christmas, i.e. "Carols", Santa's personal assistant, helper, and jester - The Christmas Monkey has long been left off the traditional celebration fare. This was not always the case. In the fifth century A.D. the Christmas Monkey's role as Santa's premier helper, engineer, and political advisor was celebrated the world over. As with most celebrations of the time this was done with song, and booze. In fact our modern carol "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" was original titled "We Wish You a Merry, Christmas Monkey!". Later on there was a botched crusade to the inner Congo to take back the primative ritualistic worship site of the Christmas Monkey. Of course, in our fast-paced, rig-a-ma-role world of commercial Christmas, the Christmas Monkey's memory has been suppressed by those same villians who put a treasure map on the back of the Declaration of Independence, and wrote the DaVinci Code. It is up to us "bloxxers" to remember now. So have a Merry Christmas, Monkey!!
