Words to live by…

If I’m curt with you it’s because time is a factor. I think fast, I talk fast, and I need you to guys to act fast if you wanna get out of this. So pretty please, with sugar on top, clean the fuckin’ car.

I routinely twist to the maximum allowable torqueage.

In an homage to My Cousin Vinny, please allow me to reflect on some of the more asinine and actual exchanges from the courtroom (all props to “Disorder in the Court”):

Not a button to push, just do it.

Selected quotes… for no apparent reason:

In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy it is necessary to act outside the law – to pursue natural justice. This is not vengeance. Revenge is not a valid motive, it’s an emotional response. No, not vengeance. Punishment. -The Punisher

mini rant

Posted Jul 15, 2007. ~2min read.

I admit it — I love movies. Whether it’s quoting dialogue, mentioning an obscure reference, or just general film trivia, I love talking about movies. To make things worse, the only thing I tend to talk about more than movies is my dog.

Fred sees Spider-man 3

As a Spider-fan, there was only requirement of me this weekend… See Spider-man 3.

There’s going to be a lot of people who won’t love this movie– but I won’t be one of them. Was it my favorite of the three? No, not at all… but it was better than 95% of the movies I’ve seen and if they make a forth, I’ll see that opening weekend as well.

Well, I missed the midnight showing… but with fucking Gwen Stacy listed as a character there’s no way in hell I’m missing this movie’s opening weekend. 🙂

Funny how time “flies” when you’re working all the time. I was doing so well with updaing these, too.

Let’s see… what’s happened in the last 30 days? Not much… A LOT of work… New highway bars on the bike… and that’s pretty much it.

Fred sees Bridge to Terabithia

Several months ago, my beautiful, tooth-pick of a goddaughter told me her class was reading Bridge to Terabithia. Instantly, I flashbacked to Mrs. Krueger’s 4^th grade class and what great books we read that year. Without a doubt, Mrs. Krueger is/was my favorite Elementary School teacher. She really inspired us to read, which unfortunately is something I lost interest in years later. That being said, she also had us read Bridge to Terabithia— which is still, to this day, one of my favorite books.

Movies of 2006

Out of all the movies that came out in 2006, I can’t believe I saw only the following:

ANNAPOLIS
CLERKS II
CLICK
EIGHT BELOW
MIAMI VICE
MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 3
SUPERMAN RETURNS
TALLADEGA NIGHTS
THANK YOU FOR SMOKING
THE DA VINCI CODE
X-MEN: THE LAST STAND

And even sadder— I only saw 3 of these in the theater.

Miami Vice wasn't just a show…

Well, after seeing Superman Returns the other week, I wasn’t all too excited to see Miami Vice. I mean, how many tv shows can we turn into movies? Between Charlies Angels, Dukes of Hazzard, Mission Impossible, Starsky & Hutch… I mean the list just never ends.
