LEGO Toy Story Squeeze Toy Alien & Ship

Black Friday Booty

I woke up early (3:15 AM) to stand in line for an hour in the cold (12 degrees) outside Best Buy for these, my morning pirate's treasure.


Hard to pass up TV series on the cheap.

My One Piece

This was my wonderful, one piece of pie yesterday.

What's Thanksgiving Without Guns

Pulp Wars

Karl Urban as the new (and awesome) Judge Dredd.

(It fits the theme.)

The always hip, Tank Girl.

Happy Thanksgiving, 2010!

Finally Had Some Time to Play

Shot with my digital camera. Put together in iMovie. I know I can do better, but at least it got me using the tools. More to come...

Guess What's On My Mind

Take a guess what I'm thinking about this Thanksgiving...






Bad food! And I'll have none of it. I'm even going to bring my own meal so that I can make sure to eat healthy. (And yes, I know that nothing I showed was a traditional Thanksgiving food, but damn did they look tasty.)

I will, however, have at least one of these:

The Star Trek Home

This makes the interconnected home computing system my uncle has in place look relatively Stone-Age (sorry, man) in design. It's pretty cool.



And of course, I want one.

My Hands

My hands hurt.
They dry out around the knuckles every winter, crack and bleed and burn. It probably didn't help that tonight I was out pushing carts at work without gloves when temps were in the teens. They are especially sore now.

Newest (and Best) Trailer for The Green Hornet

At first I had only a passing interest (I'd see it because it'd be the new movie in theaters that week), but I have to say that after this trailer I'm a lot more interested.

Spending Sundays with Friends

For the Monkey

For the Monkey, because I know how much he likes his cheese fries:

Source Code Trailer

For your morning enjoyment, here's the trailer for what appears to be another great movie by the director of Moon.

Enjoy. (I love this kind of movie.)

Couple of Jokers

A couple of real jokers...


It's me (on left) and @crshaver. Ha!

Cowboys & Aliens Trailer!

Holy. Shit.

Sorry Green Lantern, but THIS is my summer 2011 movie.

An Improvement

The Walking Dead...Amazing!

THE WALKING DEAD is amazing. It has everything you want in a horror series. Tension. Scares. Heart. Guts. In a word: story.

I had hoped it would be as good as the series of graphic novels it was based upon, and I was pleasantly surprised. It's my must watch show of the week. Too bad the first season is only 6 episodes long (we're halfway done). The wait between weeks is tough, but the wait between seasons will be unbearable. The only good news is that the second season is scheduled to be 13 episodes long. I cannot wait.

Oh, and this is hilarious:

Rap Gone Country, Part I

Step It Up, Alphabet

Yeah, it's got some "inappropriate" language, but who am I kidding? No one reads this blog that's easily offended. No sensibilities will be shattered.

Anyway, it's funny. Deal with it.

Yeah...I'm most definitely seeing this.
