Why do they keep letting Keanu Reeves give people the finger in movies? He sucks at it. In The Matrix, he has this weird claw hand happening. And Constantine? Somebody must have noticed the claw from before, so they told him to keep it as straight as possible. Come on though, he’s flipping off the devil. Keanu doesn’t look like Sting, but that’s all right. They had such a good reference for the way he should have done it.  Johnny Cash? There was a man who could flip the bird with the best of them.

Here’s hoping that Klaatu doesn’t give the people of Earth a one-fingered salute when he departs. Or, if he must, maybe whatever line he delivers at the same time, won’t sound completely stupid.

Edit: The devil ain’t so bad at it either.

How about a magic trick?

Well, Eliot Spitzer is the new governor of New York, the Democrats control the House, they may control the Senate (too close to call right now) and I’ve been given the position of King of the World. I know, many of you didn’t see that on the ballot, but that’s because kings aren’t elected. I’m king because I fought and beat Bill Gates in a UFC style cage fight. Win by rear naked choke.

Don’t worry citizens, I won’t be evil or anything. I’ll just need tributes and whatnot. No big deal.

Holy crap… subject change, but Josh is returning to school December 2nd. That pleases me, and when you’re king is pleased, you are all pleased. Something else may be returning also. Can you guess what it is? I made a reference to it in this post. Leave a comment on a guess to what it is. If you’re the first one to get it correct, there’s a “Get out of a beheading free” card for you. Very useful.

I’m going to be creating a list of things that I want and things I want to do. I’m going to tell you these things. If you want to help me in any way shape or form to do or acquire one of these things, let me know. Trades and whatnot are always fun.

(00:03:47) godzilla: i happen do know, for example, that if you bite a gummy bear’s head off and stick it back on, you can’t flick it off
(00:03:47) me: oh shit… remember biting the heads off of of gummy bears and stick them back together and not being able to flick the heads off?

So seriously, that was crazy. Not only did we say the same thing, we both said it at the same time. Look at the timestamps! Those are not edited in anyway. Crazy yo.

It’s the week before finals for me and while I don’t want to take my finals, I can’t wait to be done with classes for this quarter. While I’m doing okay in most of my classes, I just despise most of them. I’m taking four classes, but I only have two final exams. Both of those exams are on the Friday of finals week. That annoys me, but I guess it’s okay. It ends up meaning that I have the most time to study, and that I’ll be here for the hockey game that night, and John’s 21st birthday. Yeah. Hopefully those two things will offset the ugliness of the finals.

Jordan won this game. It was crazy. Everybody had 6 cards and you needed 7 to win, so we played the most cards possible. Silly quote from John during the game, “This is why Lori always wins, she just goes for the shmoopsie poopsie one”

Think we’re terrible people, think we’re retarded, I don’t care. If you’ve never played Apples to Apples, you really don’t have any right to judge us on that.
