Today's Word Of The Day

Shan't

Apparently my phone knows the word "shan't". And I didn't even have to teach it.

Isle of Man TT Pit Stops

Apparently, when you're fueling up one of those motorcycles, counting in Elephants are the way to go. Aardvarks just won't cut it.

Frosted Mini Wheats Little Bites

Um... Weren't Frosted Mini Wheats already small?

A Worker Loads the Fish Blocks Into The Machine

Doesn't that just sound wrong?

But, at least now I know how fish sticks are made...

Thanks, Science Channel

The Toothpaste...

Begins a journey on a freeway of piping.

Thanks, Science Channel.

Chuck!

Chuck's back! Well, as of yesterday. But I only just got around to watching the episode today.

He's not fat...

He's a comfortable gentleman...

That's a fantastic expression. Thanks, Isle of Man TT.

Vacancy 2: The First Cut

Agnes Bruckner, David Moscow (2009) A man, his fiancee and a friend face brutal attackers at a remote motel.

Syfy Saturday movie from 10/2.

Formulaic.

And normally, I'd rant and rave about the lack of a comma before the "and" in the description, but this movie was terrible enough, and I didn't pay enough attention to actually care.

Also, probably the best part of this movie: The fact that next week's movie is called "Sharktopus"

Eatery.

If I ever open a restaurant, its definitely gonna involve the word "Eatery" in the name.

Ar Rar Ror Rau

Its the Altar of Storms!

Mandrake

Betsy Russel, Max Martini (2010) Adventurers on a jungle expedition encounter a half-plant, half-animal creature out for blood.

Syfy Saturday movie from 9/11.

Its got that guy with a beard from The Unit. And the Eotech on his MP5 seems to be on a rotating mount. About half the time its backwards. And the other half its frontwards. You'd think after spending X amount of time on that Unit show, he might have some conception of which way round an Eotech goes.

Also, I had a really nice poop before I left work today. Quality, quality poo.

Just felt you might want to know.

Also, The Unit Dude, Tree Monster's not havin' none of your backwards Eotech shit. And is thusly swatting your gun out of your hands.

And now its dick stabbin' your South American compadre.

Meteor Apocalypse

Joe Lando, Claudia Christian (2010) A gigantic, disintegrating meteor showers the Earth with debris.

Basic summary, after watching the first half hour: Earth tries to pull and Armageddon, and blow up a meteor with missiles, rather than a shuttle thing. And distinctly less Peter Stormare. But it all fails. And then stupidly precise meteors (or is it meterorites) hit famous landmarks and plot-convenient places and things with comical precision. And then the water got poisoned. For some inexplicable reason.

Centers for Disease Containment? In D.C.? Intriguing.

Also the head of the CDC group involved in the government response just said "We're gonna do it right this time." Which implies that their track record isn't so stellar. Perhaps they should leave it to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. Because, you know, they actually exist. And are professionals at this, and all...

Cue Willem Dafoe with mussy hair shooting a pistol into the sky: And then there was an..... ATV CHASE!!!!

Yeah, that makes about as much sense as it sounds like.

Again with the comical precision of meteorites hitting dramatically convenient places and things..

Also, the new acting director of the Centers for Disease Containment refers to it as the Center of Disease Containment. You'd think that he might have some idea of the actual name of the agency he's usurping command of.

Also, this movie seems to be the story of some guy who looks a disturbing amount like Tom Bergeron, who wanders about, and eventually finds his family.

Tabula Rasa (Stargate Atlantis)

Was watching the episode the other day, and rediscovered how much I liked it. A really good way to open the episode, especially because for a good portion of the episode you have little to no idea what's going on, and why people are acting the way they do.

Also, is it pathetic that I saw one of the random characters (Lt. SomethingOrOther), and immediately recognized him as Niall Matter? Who you might recognize as Zane Donovan from Eureka. (Is this the first time that my identification of Stargate characters has gone the other direction?) Also, he looks a bit different in this episode. Probably because he has to play the role of a military officer, rather than the Zane character, who is distinctly not military.

Missing (Stargate: Atlantis Episode)

Kaylee, grow a pair.

Seriously.

Stop being such a weiner.

Although, that first sentence is purely metaphorical. Because you'd be significantly less hot if you had a physical pair... That'd just be weird.

Also, in other news: Danny Trejo? Does anyone else find that as strange as I do?

Trevor's Word Of The Day

Legs.

Today's Word Of The Day

Hrm.

It has recently come to my attention that Trevor and I may have recently seen the final Dream Theater show with Mike Portnoy playing the drums.

Which concerns me, because he was really the driving force behind the band. According to the press release, they're going to carry on without him. Hopefully they continue their quality of music, even without Portnoy...

Today's Word Of The Day

Flounce.

Apparently that's a real word that can describe an action that cane be done to hair.

Thanks, Science Channel.

Today's Word Of The Day

ARG!

Stupid people should not be allowed to use self-checkout lanes at the Grocery Store.

Or be allowed to use computers...

Crayons

Steric Acid improves the rub-off.

Thanks, Science Channel.
