Michael: Maybe you should get away from Buster. Why don’t you go up to the cabin in the woods?
Lucille: I thought you said we sold it.
Michael: We sold the property, I worked it out so that we could relocate the cabin. But it is going to up in Tahoe for another couple of days. Maybe you could take a date up there.
Lucille: How am I supposed to find someone willing to go into that musty old claptrap?
Michael: [Michael stares at her awkwardly] The cabin… yes. That would be difficult, too.
I’d like to meet the person who decided these looked good. Because they look terrible. Also, I’ve never heard of fat jeans. And if you decide you want to look like a tool and wear these monstrosities, you should have to be skinny, not a fat ass. I think this just proves that people will wear/do anything just to fit in.
Today wasn’t bad for me by any means, but this made my day.
Michael: Go ahead and tell Gob that I’ll be telling the cops that it was him in the truck, so he’ll be joining me here. I have a nice, hard cot with this name on it.
Lucille: You’d do that to your own brother?
Michael: I said “cot.”
Now I’ve had my share of chances and loved every one of them, but who came up with this brilliant philosophy? So no matter what I do, it doesn’t really matter, because I’m just getting another crack at it anyway. If this is true, then why does the death penalty and the life sentence exist? I can understand this as a general statement, but people throw this around all willy-nilly (yeah that’s right). Maybe we should give everybody one chance and see how that goes.
Gob: And now you love the Ten Commandments. And yet you’re the one who so conveniently forgot “Thou shalt protect thy father and honor no one above him unless it be-ith me, thy sweet Lord.”
Michael: I’m not sure that one made it down the mountain, Gob.
I get home from work and start doing what I do best, browse around the Internet. I come to ESPN, and this is one of their headlines: Sources: Browns likely to go with Quinn to start. Fantastic. Who cares? The Browns are 1-7, including a loss to the mighty Packers, who just gave Tampa Bay their first win of the season. Brady Quinn was supposed to be their savior, so maybe the headline was justified, except for the fact that he was so great that he was taken out and hasn’t started the last few games. Sounds pretty important to me.
The big shots in Hollywood like to do a lot of remakes when it comes to making movies, but never have I been more glad to see one than for Clash of the Titans. The original was made in 1981, and the acting is a bit corny and sometimes over the top, but the worst part is the special effects. I remember watching it in high school and thinking they were the worst effects I had ever seen. Since the new one is coming out early next year, I wanted to get a refresher course in the story and the stunning visuals. I literally laughed at some of the things I was seeing. Here are a few videos to show Clash of the Titans in all of its glory.
Jump to 8:00 and watch from there to see Poseidon release the Kraken.
