I just found out that music legend Slim Whitman passed away last month from heart failure. Very sad. I loved his music ever since I first heard it in the movie Mars Attacks. He will be missed.
His song Indian Love Call was amazingly creepy and beautiful:
RIP Slim. Thank you for saving us from the aliens.
Well, since my last post, for some reason I decided that it would be an awesome idea to become a super kung fu fighter girl. Turns out it takes actual hard work and talent though. Bah! I decided to try Brazilian Jiu Jitsu but it was hella hard. Basic arm bar? Sounds easy but it definitely wasn't. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that I was trying to use my dog as my sparring partner and she just wasn't having it. Anyway, here's my kung fu journey in a nutshell - I wasn't good at it right away so I gave up. Maybe I'll try learning how to dance instead.
Sorry guys, I know this was a boring post but I just felt like writing something today. Here, here's a nice related picture to keep you busy for a few minutes:
I just saw this movie called Chocolate last nigh. IT. WAS. AWESOME.
It was about this girl with autism who learns kung fu by watching movies and then has to kick the shit out of some gangsters.
Anyway, it stars this martial artist named Jeeja Yanin, who was awesome. And just look at how cute she is!
Just adorable!
Anyway, if you like kung fu movies I'd definitely recommend checking out Chocolate. It was a very cute and sweet story with tons of awesome ass-kicking fight scenes. And apparently there were no wires or stunt doubles used at all, which makes the stuff in the movie even more amazing.
Here's the trailer:
And here's some great clips of Jeeja in various movies kicking ass:
As you can tell I'm a pretty big fan of her's now. You go, Jeeja!
I've been beaten. It's become completely clear to me today that every single decision I’ve made, in my whole entire life,
has been the wrong one. My life is the total opposite of what I want it
to be. Every instinct I have, in every of aspect of life, every thought, every action. It’s all been completely wrong. Thirty and still alone.
From now on I will do the opposite of whatever I think I should do. If every instinct I have is wrong, that means the opposite will be right!
Yes, I will become a bimbo! I used to sit here and scoff at them, knowing that they were wasting away in their lives and would never truly be happy, and I would do nothing, and regret it all day, while they end up with the guys and I'm alone. So now I will do the opposite, and I will go out and be a bimbo like all the other girls!
I submit. I will wear skimpy clothes and flaunt what I got. This Halloween I will be wearing one of these slutty pirate costumes. That will be sure to attract a suitable mate! I already found a good slutty costume!
But what I'm really excited about is Cyber Monday! Who cares about giving thanks and spending time with your friends and family when you can be shopping?
I've decided to skip Black Friday this year. Why? Because it's like the worst thing ever. Standing elbow-to-elbow in a herd of disgruntled shoppers willing to push you down and rip your head off just so they can buy the new iPod for half price is not exactly my idea of a good time...
With Cyber Monday I can skip the crowds and all of the fighting and running around and just sit in my pajamas and easily buy what I need. Now that's what I'm talkin' about! Just sitting back, relaxing, and buying what I need without all of the hassle. Why do it any other way?
Well, the turkey smells like it's starting to burn so I'm going to have to cut this post short right now and go tend to that. But I'm interested in what you guys are all doing today to celebrate, ummm, wait... What is Thanksgiving a celebration of again? Well, anyway, happy Thanksgiving!
Well, today marks the 10th anniversary of the U.S. release of the Sega Dreamcast video game console, and it seems like everyone is getting in on the action, so why not me as well?
I bought a Sega Dreamcast as soon as it came out, and to be quite frank, it was probably the best purchase I ever made. I loved the thing to no end, and it provided me and my friends with many sleepless nights playing games like Sonic Adventure, Crazy Taxi, Jet Grind Radio, Seaman, Soul Calibur, and countless others. I've owned a lot of video game systems over the years, but for some reason, the Dreamcast sticks out as the host of all of my fondest memories attributed to my video gaming hobby - there was just something special about Sega's last machine, and the fact that it died an early death makes it all the more special. So here's to you, Sega and your Dreamcast, for providing the best, most unique gaming experience ever. You were awesome!
