wheeee for wiiiiiii

Yup, I've acquired a Wii. And what do you know? I've just typed a blog through the brand spanking new Internet Channel. Ahhh...I must say, I prefer a keyboard. Still, this does have its own little charm. Not that you readers can tell the difference. Oh well. You'll just have to take my word for it. More later. Promise.

for the dark things cannot stand the light...

Some sad news. First off, Peter Boyle has passed on. It's sad to lose such a great actor - from Frankenstein's monster to Frank Barone, he just oozed talent. Gotta love his seemingly hate-filled lines on Everybody Loves Raymond.

Marie Barone: We haven't had a conversation for 35 years.
Frank Barone: I didn't want to interrupt!

Good times.

Another death - Martin Nodell, the creator of the Green Lantern (and the Pilsbury Dough Boy) has died. As a huge Green Lantern fan, this is especially sad news. I mean, if it weren't for him, there'd be no Kyle Rayner today! Or Hal, or Guy, or anybody...I'm sure he was proud to see his creation spawn a whole legacy of superheroes.

Bunches of sad news...but hey, they lived good long lives. And now, they don't have to worry about all that suffering.

A great actor and a great comic artist/writer gone, but definitely not forgotten.

yeah right, sea cow

www.hornymanatee.com

Wow. Just wow. Conan, I salute you. Again.

You know, Jim Gaffigan has some good bits on the manatee. And he HAS collaborated with Conan on Pale Force (sort of). I smell yet another crossover of sorts.

Not much to say. Busy busy busy. For a week. And then I shall shut down for a week.

In unrelated news, damn you to hell Wal*Mart.

freshly organized room

Ah, the ol' room is nice and organized for the first time in a while. Not complete, mind you, but much better.

Ah, Christmas time. Sue me, but I love the commercialism and the fakeness of it. If Jesus is the "reason for the season" as they say, then Christmas should be in Marchish. So, I'll take my pagan winter festival, thankyouverymuch.

Been designing a beer label for a class project. Makes me wanna drink. Heavily. But not beer. Rum. Or Irish beer. Yeah, I'll settle for that. After watching Conan, I think I want to make my own Rummy eggnog. Mmmm...eggs + nog = bliss. And heart troubles.

GameFAQs has a top 10 list of underrated Nintendo 64 games. Ah, a nice list...makes me pine for them good ol' 64 days. Especially Mischief Makers and the long multiplayer nights of Goldeneye, Star Fox, and Smash Brothers. Ahhh...well, I restarted Pokemon. Yes sir, I'm going back to the days of wanting to catch 'em all. Right now, my Spanx the Mankey could whip your ass any day of the week. Spanx the Mankey, Slurms the Bulbasaur, and Spread the Butterfree. There's a trio.

Sleep is seeming like a good thing right about now. But a quick hop on AIM to analyze the crowd...and I got nothin' but Poop.

EDIT: HOLY CRAP! What's the Oblongs doing on Adult Swim again? Why not Mission Hill? Hmm...bears investigating. Later. Seacrest OUT!
