I missed Smallville. I had a fucking blast last night, but i missed Smallville, small price to pay. I'm so tired right now i ran down the escalator at work and got a head rush when i got to the bottom.

NEW SMALLVILLE TONIGHT!!!

Since i'm a big geek, my geekness follows me wherever i go, including work. So at my desk i have my Buddy Christ pointing at me and giving me a thumbs up, i have Link Hogthrob also pointing at me, i've got pics of Tom Welling and Micheal Rosenbaum, pics of Jay and Silent Bob's secret stash, stuff like that. And so, i've become a geek beacon of sorts. Geeks from all walks of life at my work flock to me for geek information. Recently, well for the last 3 weeks, i've been asked "when's there gonna be new Smallville episodes?" Tonight, that's when.

Good Goddamn it's beautiful outside!

Car repairs: 448.00$
New tire and alignment : 89.00$
Being able to drive around with the window open while listening to some Johnny Cash: Priceless.

Shoot me, shoot me now.

Yes boys and girls, yet another installment in the neverending unmerciful saga that is my shit-mobile. The shit Gods have decided to unleash upon me the shit-storm to end all shit-storms. It's a low pressure shit-system and the shit winds are coming in from the north and things are not looking good. A shit-tsami, a shit-nado, the mother of all shit-acanes. My car died yesterday. Went to game zone, dropped Chubby Chaser off at his parent's place, put the key in the ignition, and nothing, bubkis. Can you believe that?

So i called Mr.Rescue and the dude who showed up actually made me feel a little better. He was this Good Charlotte-type looking guy, his name was Freddy. He drove me to the Canadian tire on Newman and on the way i told him i was pretty bummed out and but that things were going to be ok cuz i was gonna go back to Chubby Chaser's place, smoke a joint and watch Leathal Weapon, i guess this was an ice breaker cuz we talked about lot's of stuff. Talked about how different people react to having their cars break down, talked about Samuel L. Jackson and the Boondocks, talked about burning my car down a la Ricky once it finally does die, talked about how it's gonna smell really bad when i do that, talked about how a spark plug is made of ceramic and that if you break one with a hammer and whip it really hard at a car window it will shatter into a million pieces, talked about how that kinda resembles the dime in the beer bottle principal and talked about how if you rub the neck of two beer bottles together the top will fly off.

So i left my car in the Canadian Tire parking lot and had to take the bus this morning. Last time i had to take the bus it wasn't good. I couldn't get used to sitting backwards in a moving vehicle and almost threw up on the guy in front of me. I'm happy to report that this morning's expedition was more successful. The bus experience at 9h40am is totally different then the bus experience at 7h30am, worlds apart. It's quiet, you can hear the bus driver's radio, it's not crowded, it's all good really and makes me wonder why the hell i don't just drive my car into the St-laurence and say good riddance. I don't know if i'll feel the same way when i'll be waiting for the bus tonight at 8pm.... updates to follow.

Chuck Norris is so fast, he can run around the world and punch himself in the back of the head.

don't ask me who this old guy is, cuz i don't know.

So i finally figured this out. From left to right : Gustavo, Chubby Chaser, me and Dave, my homie.

St-Pattie's day was a good time, Dave came and i was super psyched. Drank like a mofo and smoked like there was no tomorrow. Last man standing? That was me bitch, all the way. If i wasn't such a fucking tool right now i'd post pictures, but man i can't figure this out.

666 mafia, Walk the line and the crack in my windshield.

Is it just me, or are the Oscar's actually getting interesting? Man, when the 666 mafia won i couldn't believe it. I'd never really heard of them, but Christ was i happy. The last few years i've only been watching the oscars for the off chance that someone unexpected will win, or make an ass of themselves or to be able to watch when the only 2 or 3 people who would be happy to win, win. The rest of the time the oscars is just like a big rap party for all movies and an excuse for the second key grip to put on something other then overalls and sit behind George Clooney. On the whole, i'd say that this year was fairly harmless. The highlights for me would have to be when the March of the Penguins people won for something or other. I don't know why but i got all chocked up for them, and then he started talking about Antarctica and shit like that, maybe i'm PMSing, but damn it i couldn't help but get all misty there. Actually that happened twice, the second time was when the South African movie won. Man i was so happy for that guy i got all misty again! Best part of the evening, hands down, was when 666 mafia won best song with "It's hard out here for a pimp". That was awesome. And even more awesomer is when Jon Stewart said "666 mafia -1 oscar, Martin Scorsese- 0 oscar".


I finally picked up Walk the Line this week. I don't know what it is with me, but i love movies about singers. The Doors, fucking awesome, What's love got to do with it?, shit, i watched that movie so much i broke the tape it was taped on, Ray, loved it, and now this, i've had the movie for 3 days and i've watched it 4 times. I love this movie. Can't get enough. I've been humming Cash for the last week now.


Since i'm too lazy to pick up some windshield washer fluid whenever i stop for gas, which is at least 2-3 times a week, i've been reduced to using the squigy whenever i think about cleaning my windows, which is not often. Yesterday, while using the squigy, i noticed a crack in my windshield. Well a cracklette maybe, or a ding, call it what you will, but it occured to me that the next time i hit a kid on a bike, i might not come out of it so lucky because of this crack. ... I never told you about the time i hit the kid on the bike? Fuck that he hit me. But, that's a story for another time.

Did anyone watch Barbara Walters yesterday? I didn't either, but i heard a clip this morning on the radio and laughed my ass off. She was interviewing George Clooney, who, in my opinion, had done his best work as Booker, Jackie's love interest in the early years of Roseanne, and hasn't done much since then, except maybe the first years of ER were ok. So this was basically what was said in the clip this morning :

Barbara Walters: So George, lately you've been making smaller type movies, why is that?

George Clooney: Well, my houses are paid. It's not like i need the money. And now it's really up to me to make sure that the things I appear in are good. This started after I did Batman, which bombed badly I realized that the success did rely on me and so I knew I had to be careful what project I took on.

BW: Would you ever consider playing a gay cowboy?

GC: Umm... well I believe I've done that already, in Batman, the rubber nipples... Yeah I could have played him straight, but he wasn't, he was gay.

burned and bitter

Everyone's been burned. Everyone feels at one point or another that they've been dooped, bamboozled, fucked over. Gen recently received a letter from such a person and has allowed me to blog it for prosperity. MEN OF THE WORLD! When did you allow your brothers to become women?

GEN spseaking: i am a chick. i can appreciate subtility. (although i dont really employ it, i think the essential get lost in too much subtilities.) but i read a lot. i am a nerd. but yet, i still dont get what he is saying. and i KNOW the story behind it.
so many hypotheses come to me. ie: is he telling me that i should stop being an idiot and just go out with him. Or that he wants me so much that it's driving him insane and, jesus, how can i not see that. Or that it's my fault. ( like the hunger in the world) Or maybe i did something in the past that totally burned him and, shit, i would not be aware of it and he doesnt like it. Or is it because of me that he's coming to Yemen.

What the hell does he want from me? Is there any guy who could translate this? Shit...When the fuck did I need a man to translate another man's letter for me? Obviously , Now would be nice, i still need to write back. And just for the record, no, i was not interested and I thought i was clear about it.
thank you.


The following is the letter Gen received, the french short translation in brackets and then both long and short english versions in intalics. Enjoy

Reason #127 I should quit smoking.

I'm watching a movie last night on Mpix or something, A wedding for Bella, and it's not bad, it's about a guy who's kinda trapped in the corporate world but on his time off he works in a bakery and takes care of the old couple who live above it. The old woman gets cancer and this guy loves her so much that he'd do anything to make her happy because she's like a mom to him, so he decides he's gonna marry Bella's estranged daughter. And it's beautiful and sad and i cried like a little bitch. As soon as the movie's over i get up, still crying, turn the TV off, and at that exact moment i could not for the life of me remember who the leading man in the movie was. I just watched it, just turned it off and could not remember. This is when i had a I need to quit smoking moment. Then as i'm lying in bed it came back to me who the guy in the movie was and then realized why i'd blocked it out so fast in the first place. The dude was Scott Baio. As in Chachi, as in Joanie loves Chachi. Yep, Chachi's making me cry, maybe it is time to quit smoking.

Side note: has anyone seen Cursed? The god awful Werewolf movie with Christina Ricci and Pacey from the Creek. Yeah, Chachi's in that one too. The whole time watching that movie i was convinced that Baio, who was playing himself in the movie, was the werewolf. Of course it turned out it wasn't him, but that's movie i would have like to see, would have been way better that way. I promise this is the last i'll talk about Chachi. I swear.
