Today Brendan rewarded himself by purchashing a lot of movies that he wanted. Brendan is very happy right now. Brendan is making popcorn. Brendan is ecstatic right now. The list goes: The Ring, Ringu, Donnie Darko, Full Frontal and Road to Hell..ahem Perdition. Lets talk about these choices shall we because I just came from a fucked up class where we analyze film for fun...except it's no fun. Its retarded. No offense to you guys.
The Ring: If people didn't think it was scary that is fine. I thought it was. I like psychological thrillers than typical horror. That is just me. I also find it interesting how if people didn't like it...they probably saw it after the hype and told themselves that it is not scary so they can play devil's advocate. Just like me and American Pie 2. Ask the hapa...i mean Korean...everyone said it was funny. I said it was fucking stupid. I didn't laugh once. Don't believe me. Ask him. It might be because I wanted to feel special in my own little way so I told myself, "I'm not going to like it cause it's stupid". I think Jon can vouche for me when we played that stupid YBA game where they had to make people smile. I win. So whatever. If there is anything I learned in that cinema classes is that everyone has their opinions...I also learned that most people's opinions are fucking stupid.
Ringu: Finally. Presented in all its Nip glory. No dubbed here my friend and digitally remastered just for me. I can't wait to watch it considering the little clip I did see of it...it seemed darker and scarier. I'll let you know after I check it out.
Donnie Darko: Ari is making me watch this. It is a psychological thriller about a guy who gets visited by a killer rabbit and gets his past and future revealed. A killer rabbit? I already like it.
Full Frontal: I am a Soderbergh whore. He shot some sequences with a Canon XL-1 camera...the same one I was looking at but it was a tad expensive...around 5 grand...but I didn't invest in it because no fucking store around here carried such cameras...so I couldn't see it in action...so I finally get to see what makes this digital camera the best one out there...Soderbergh said it was dope...so I say it is dope. If you are laughing because I'm a whore...well who liked Ocean's 11. And soon to be released...Ocean's 12...with original cast...Don Cheadle better speak a lot more...or we are in Barney.
Road to Perdition: Most of you guys have seen this. The guy who shot the movie, Konrad Hall, died recently. The same guy who shot Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. I like that movie a lot. If you haven't seen it...I recommend you doing so if you think that Westerns are a tad dry. Just picture the movie, The Sting in the desert.
On to more important things: T-bola likes her name? Thats' fucking awful. Well at least she concedes it. I know what she is thinking too...she is thinking...if I can get BLuckyDay to like me then he will be nice to me, so I will say his nickname is great and funny. Haha. Dreams they are shattered. Then she will go on to give me a nickname because she thinks nicknames are cute...
"Yo T-bola pass the shoyu now"
"Haha you are very funny Brendan"
"No shit."
"In fact lets all give each other nicknames..."
"...yeah sure."
"Here is the shoyu...B-BOLA" (followed by an annoying laugh with her hand covering her mouth)
"...yeah thanks...I guess"
"Haha now we are all friends! Lets go play Scattegories!"
"You are a dolt"
"What's a dolt..."
Well T-Bola...you can try it...but you will be slaughtered...I don't usually trash my own kind...but I will fuck a Nip up. Anyhoo...glad you like it! Although if everyone keeps calling you that...i better think of a new name for you! Hehe. If you take offense to this...Haha.
Brian's birthday huh? Who is this myserioso, dark figure, known as Brian? Oh well...Happy Birthday. Hope it was a D - D - Rightious birthday. Haha...hallmark here I come.
Steve likes M.A.! Thanks for the input! I'm glad you like it...I figure anything with motion tweening will make any flash whore happy! Cause I sure am! Haha...I can tell when Steve visits because I only have 5 hits with a Mac Operating system! Haha! Anyways thanks Steve...remember to keep plugging it all over the net...I'm sure some of your asian brothers like KKreuk...

"A lot going on... but there always is, isn't there: a lot going on."
Fake birthday on the old ranch
Yeah, it's late now, but happy birthday B3 after the fact anyway. I'll get you a present if you ever come back home again you chucka mofucka. Heheh get a new job, and save up for Nihon, seriously. Or just multiply paperz on PokerRoom. Hope it was a good one. See you next Thanksgiving.
SLO
Thanks to Bryant for providing me with a place to sleep and fruit juice aplenty. It was an interesting weekend. My highlights:
I got to stay an extra night, yay! My coworker Eric was my ride, and I ended up not seeing him for the whole weekend. I often wondered if he was okay, since he didn’t respond to my numerous messages and was doing a lot of mountain biking. On the way down Friday morning, he told me that his sister was thrown in jail for public drunkenness the night before. Sunday night I hear from him around 10pm and apparently the shiet happened again. And he had to go pick her up, but only after the minimum four hour processing period. So we left this morning around 7am and I have two hours of work to make up.
Andy said some hilarious shiet. Observing that Bryant’s car makes a noise like a small animal... claiming that the unicycle that we saw a guy riding on the sidewalk is mythical, like a unicorn... singing an 80s song and telling Tiffany that it was from before she was born… unfortunately I can’t claim to know him that well, but Andy cracks me up.
Saw Kevin again, met Kent, got to know Tiffany a little bit better. What nice people all around. Kevin made some bold statements about challenges at the pool table. It was kinda weird meeting someone named Kent… Heath Ledger has never been so faded. While Bryant was passed out at Denny’s, T-bola was friendly enough to ask me some questions … how long I’m staying in SLO, do I have beads, etc.… about 5 times each. Alcohol is a brain killer people. But it’s all good, at least she tried. And she seems to really like her BLucky-given nickname. Everyone wins, eh!
Nerd action
Steve's puzzle... whoever uses it doesn't ever see it? So they're blind or dead...?
A coffin - Although this doesn't work in the weird case that someone decides they want to choose or even buy their own coffin ahead of time. Now that's gotta be the ultimate in superficiality. Or if the afterlife lets you look down on the living and watch your own funeral. But then why would you do that when you can see naked people.
A white cane - This is making some politically incorrect assumptions: (a) blind people can't be taught to make canes, (b) blind people are powerless to go out and buy things for themselves. So a friend or family member would have to fetch their guidestick for them, and never play "blind man" and use it for fun. A stretch? Perhaps.
etc. - I could sit here and let the nerd brain come up with a dozen more, each justified more weakly than the last. But I won't.
If I'm right, I better get that 151 and pho, you cheap bastard. And even if I'm not right... shiet... HEY STEVE MERRY CHRISTMAS.
btw
Full Circle sucked and was the biggest disappointment ever. Now let’s have at that dick.
I am special.
Stay tuned for next time… the reason behind my love for the classic video games.
“Get the fuck outta here.” “Understood.”

happy birthday brian. I'll get you a present. What do you want? Chicken, shrimp, beef, or "regular"? heh. And if i ever see you again, i'll get it to yah. Welcome to the old club. Pretty soon we'll all need walkers and we'll become bitter old men.
sorry i haven't been blogging lately. i've been pretty busy lately with a lot of stuff. I just recently spent a shitload of time learning how to sing in a four part harmony setting. The curse of having a "barry white-like" voice pays off when you want to sing cuz you get the bass part, which means that you don't have to sing the hard parts..or so i thought. Anyways, I had to learn the bass parts for "this i promise you" by nsync, and "in the still of the night" which was best performed by Boyz II Men. It was pretty fucking hard. I had to do it for a fraterntiy function. It really sparked my interest in singing however. I'm currently getting together with a group of peoples every week and learning new songs. The currently song I'm trying to learn is "a better man" by All 4 One. It's an awesome song. I would recomment that you all d/l it right now and listen to it. I'm also trying to learn that one melodious part in "Motownphilly". It's the part right after "yo mike, check this out. See if this one moves you". It's hella @#$@ hard. Trying to learn all of this as given me so much more respect for Boyz II men...for them to be able to sing the way they do is nothing but pure, unclogged, uncut, untarnished TALENT. Man they're dope. And all the critics that said that "Full Circle" sucked or was the biggest disappoint ever can suck my dick.
Brendan. I think you should take ur website to see a doctor cuz that shit is sick. Get it? I really like the plot for the poker game movie too. We should also make it very realistic (i.e. Bryant/I lose all our money, Bryant gets mad, I leave to play video games, Jon takes everyone's money, etc.) I also think the fridge in the garage should play a major role, as should the felt, and jon's clay chips (well aren't you special????)
One more week and then i'm moving again. I just live too fucking far from campus, and with the price of gas these days, we all agreed to move closer to UCSD. Plus i'll be closer to the school gym, which means i'll get my FAT ass to work out. I'm so fucking out of shape i often wonder how i dont' puke every time i take a shower.
I was watching the world series of poker on Espn. It immediately made me want to go to vegas. Those are some big ass pots they got in those games. I swear I wish i could go watch one. And then one of the guys spills his chips and one rolls off to the side. And then he's so fucking bling bling and baller and he's like "shit whatevers i dont care. I got this ugly shirt and that's just fine. Okay i'm gonna get up and walk around and look like i'm nervous and cool at the same time". And then the chip would roll against my foot and i would pick it up and be like "oh shit 10,000 dollars". and then i would go to the buffet at Paris and just to show everyone how bling i am i would eat one shrimp and then leave. oh yeh. oh. yeh.
two apprent laws you must follow when playing in the world series of poker:
1)you must dress EXTREMELY ugly. Not just ugly. But UNLAWFULLY ugly. So ugly that your own parents would refuse to say that you're their child and your dog would cringe when he looks at u. The clothes/personal fashion (i.e. haistyle) that these people exhibit is absolutely amazing. How they got to the casino, out of their car and into the casino without getting their ass kicked is beyond me.
2) if you have no ugly clothes, come in your most ghetto outfit ever. Okay, so if you don't have ugly clothes, then pick out the cheapest thing in your closet. Some old dirty jeans, maybe a free tshirt you got from a job fair or a cheap store in tahoe or something.
what i especially liked is how pissed the guy looked who got last place. He trudged over to the money counter and got his 100,000 and left. THAT POOR SOUL. Only 100,000. Even i shed a tear for him. It's tragic, really.
i'm gonna go shave now. Fuck i hate shaving. But the shaving gel smells so good, so it's all gravy.
Finally, i have a riddle for all of u:
(A free home-run pie for whoever guesses it. Except Jon. He's a nerd, so he has an advantage. I'm not gonna be a punk tho. So if Jon wins, he gets a free bowl of pho, but only after he drinks three shots of 151, and has an ice cold glass of water)
Whoever makes it, doesn't need it.
Whoever buys it, doesn't use it
and whoever uses it, doesn't ever see it.
What is it?
