Cynlee:1; Senility: 0!

YAY!!!

So, like way back in the 90s I discovered this cool channel that at the time was called TLC (The Learning Channel-- since redesignated and fragmented into various "the History Channel" pieces)-- and there was this fascinating show about Egypt with this British guy-- dumpy looking, balding, well-spoken-- the kinds of things that I find attractive (LOL!)-- and besides his one on Egypt, he had done this Brilliant documentary on the History of the Bible!  I videotaped as many shows as possible, and would watch them time and again until they pretty much decayed and stuff...

Anyway, tonight I was desperately trying to recall his name, and I was googling all I could all over the damn internet-- wikipedia, google, amazon--- and I FINALLY hit upon the right combination of words to pull up his name-- JOHN ROMER!!

Now I can sleep tonight.

I LOVES the Internets!

Okay, Morningstar... I posted my answers at your page... your turn.

God help me..

I do NOT like Hill-- never have, really, as I keep thinking of how she has held onto the balls of someone as freaking lame as Bill... and GOD knows I've always wanted to see the day when a Woman President would be possible...

I want to see her fight on-- despite it all!  Despite the cynical, anti-democrat sentiment that has grown in me over the past twenty or so years, despite that I hate her (and more importantly, Bill), despite it all... I'd like to see her hold on and screw with Barak (and also, God help me, NOT just because he's a freaking socialist, but after the past few days of listening to his wife "pontificating").

Ah well-- NO ONE can say that this election is boring!

Shut Up!

He's on the tv making some sort of speech...
I just want to have this magic connection to Barak-- when he is making such speeches about struggling and such-- and yet his wife is out there comparing her struggles with paying for her daughters' private ballet lessons and such-- and MY mother was struggling to feed and clothe three of us while my dad was in the Navy and was getting such a damn low income-- and we'd have what we remember as the "tea and toast diets"-- all we had was bread and tea!  And Mom, God love her, made it sound so freaking wonderful!

Because I feel like playing with the list feature...

  1. Got the new tire.  No more wobble.
  2. Got a new pair of Easy Spirits-- it was time.  I wear them to death, and the last pair looked like I'd been mucking out filth or something.
  3. Got the NECA TURTLES TODAY!!!  AND it was Free Comic Book Day as well, so got a free comic and a few other things.
  4. FOUND "SHELL SHOCK" in the new comic bin!!!!  NO indication it is a reprint on the inside-- yet it MUST be!
  5. Drove to Buslady's-- gave her her Raph-- then it was off to Applebees for lunch.
  6. THEN IRONMAN!!!
  7. I must see that movie again-- it was awesome!
  8. Came home-- naturally.
  9. I need to find my charger so I can use my camera. 
Happy Weekend.

Musings...


  1. Whomever cast that girl to play Luna Lovegood should be rewarded with tons of money.  (Just rewatched  "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix")
  2. San Diego is only about 2 and a half to 3 months away.
  3. Fifth graders are either too mature or too immature to deal with sometimes....
  4. Writing fan fiction will never make me financially secure.
  5. I still think James F. Cooper got it wrong.
  6. GreenWillow is taking far too long to write the next chapter of "Manifestations Noir".
  7. Splinter has abandoned "In Another's Shoes" and there is nothing I can do to make her finish it.
  8. Friday Nights are nice.
  9. Being at a Dodger game on a Friday night would be better.
  10. Being at a Dodger game on a Friday night with a LOT of money  would be better.

Memories... light the COORNERS of my... nevermind

See... back in 1957 (when I was like... 3) there was this show-- "Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans"-- which, naturally, when I was three I prolly saw and didn't remember, but when I was a tad older it played somewhere on tv and I loved it so much-- I loved Chingachgook, played by Lon Chaney Jr.-- I was weird, I liked the "sidekicks" better than the heroes.

Anyway, when I was older (but still in school), I KNOW I read "Last of the Mohicans"-- and I KNEW Uncas died, but I thought Alice died with him, as she did in the movie I FINALLY saw tonight (Daniel Day Lewis-- and ONLY the last half-hour)-- but tonight, while researching it, I discovered (and finally remembered) that Alice NEVER died with poor Uncas, but married some white guy and lived happily ever after.

:(

For YEARS I was always under the impression they died together-- perhaps I remember that from the Masterpiece Theater version?

I hate that I have remembered that she went on to marry some other guy after poor Uncas gave his life for her! *kicks dumb girl*

The movie, btw-- it was beautiful how she threw herself over the cliff after him--


Did the book REALLY end with her marrying someone else?????


EDIT-- Seeing it from the beginning-- F*cK*#g French!

Stupid trusting British!!!!!!!!



*grumbles; hates literature and movies*

Needs a teechur

I hate trying to make icons and the print comes out so small...

I need to have the money to hire someone to either teach me how to successfully do it, or make them FOR me.

Freedom!

I hearby declared today a holiday!

I took off today for Gina's (Buslady's) place-- she lives about 45 miles away from me, so it's not a trip in today's gas age I make often.  Luckily for me they weren't working (bus drivers do weekends).  Eric and Chris were naturally glued to their Wii ;).  Got to see how Gina's fixed up the waterland tub outside so the Ornates could have a nice time in the water in the sun.  Sadly, a few weeks ago, one of the hatchlings had died-- one that never thrived as it was-- but the others were happy as heck, and it was good to see how much they enjoyed being in the outdoor tub during the day.  She fixed it up really great, with a waterfountain feature.  I should have taken piccies.

Chris is so much better than he was last year when it was discovered he was bipolar and such.  The meds have adjusted since Gina's birthday in Oct-- he doesn't seemed doped up, and he's like a 13-year-old version of the boy I met a few years ago.  Eric had plans to go photograph busses (a hobby of his on a lazy day-- those and trains), and after hearing that Chris was glad he'd gone with us, because he at least got fed.  After we went out for lunch and then to the PetSmart where there were eleventy puppies for adoption along with a few cats (OMG-- someone had dumped four kittens that I can tell from experience were like 4 weeks old at the local small airport-- HOW freaking hard is it to take unwanted pets to the pound????) we went back to their house, and I picked up a Wii control for the first time.

Chris was MORE than happy to try to teach me how to use it.  I accidently beat him (honestly, I have no idea what to do anymore-- my only game system was the FIRST Nintendo back in the stoneage) in his Mario game that has eleventy-seven games, senarios, stories, characters and such...  Anyway, I had to finally quit as my left thumb was about to fall off.

Still, I can see the attraction of the Wii.

The only thing is the drive-- anywhere from forty-five minutes to an hour or more back and forth, but on the whole definitely worth the day trip. 

I'm glad that I've become friends with her and her family.   And all thanks to TMNT.

  1. Dreyer's Mango Ice Cream is da Bomb.
  2. Only one more day of parent/teacher conferences to go!
  3. Marvin is on my short list for Trouble-- he has lied to me regarding his mother's coming to see me-- at like 3:30-- two days in a row.
  4. I can't wait to see "Iron Man"-- never was a comic I read, but the Robert Downey Jr. film looks to be made of awesome!
  5. I've officially become some sort of wannabe by using the phrase "made of awesome".
  6. This year's crop of fifth graders seem more "hormonal" than in past years...
  7. I'm still dumb when it comes to money.
  8. I'm still waiting to hear from the local shop regarding the NECA Turtles... I hope they haven't forgotten me!
  9. Only three more months-- or rather two and a half months-- until San Diego Comic-Con!
  10. I still haven't won the lottery.

COOL! He did it! AWESOME! Great job!^^

More of my "youth" is passing...

Charlton Heston Dies at Beverly Hills Home



My sister, when in her early teens, insisted that Charlton Heston was her real dad.  Mom said then as well as tonight, if he was, she sure as heck didn't remember it.

My favorite film of his was "The Three Musketeers".  Yes, I saw "Planet of the Apes"-- "Get your hands off of me you damned dirty APES!!!!"-- and God knows I was subjected to the yearly showings of "Moses" every Easter when younger (Ha!  My OTHER sister was a huge Yul Brenner fan!  How odd...), but Richard Lester's version of "The Three Musketeers" is a favorite of mine that I enjoy seeing even today.

Believe it or Not..

"Alien" is on right now-- 1979, and my youngest sister and I, spending a summer in Sandusky, Ohio, making slave wages at Cedar Point Amusement Park, decided to check out this new movie that was a HORROR film in space...


Gad, what a film! I've never had a film experience like that before or since! It was a Friday night (first weekend), and we (and the audience) were having a shared experience-- like people in a disaster! My sister kept saying at one point "I want to leave NOW!"-- people would shout stuff but not from being rude-- like when Ripley was getting the escape pod ready, and the cat meowed, and she realized that Jones was still there, this guy yelled "I'll BUY you a new cat! GET in the DAMN POD!!!"


And it was the bestest rollercoaster ride I ever took in my life!

And at the end, when it's only Ellen Ripley left, and she's finally killed the Alien-- and she is recording the log--

*huggles youngest sister*

S. Weaver: "This is Ripley.."

Linda: "Believe it or not."



OMG, it was ALMOST THIRTY YEARS AGO!!!

*flees weeping from lj*
