Hey Lord Summerisle...Umm, What's Up With The Dress?
The Wicker Man (the original one) is a good interesting movie. It's not a "horror" movie per se, but an unusual mix of suspense, eeriness, comedy, quirkiness, and mystery. I know it may not necessarily be everyone's cup of tea, but I like it. There where a few "WTF?" moments in there, but this is my favorite:

Oh My Dog!
It's been really hot around here lately, we tied a record for number of consecutive days with triple digit temps. My dog, Stitch (so named because of his striking behavioral similarities to the character of the same name in the animated Disney movie "Lilo and Stitch"), enjoys spending some time sitting outside on the (enclosed) front patio ( Read more... ) -
Uuuunnggghh...Brains!!
We love zombies in Tucson. Very much. I recently heard about a new thing they have going on at "The Slaughterhouse", which is an "extreme haunted house" type attraction inside what used to be an old meat packing plant. Sounds appropriate, doesn't it? The old Farmer John's meat packing plant shut down in 2001 (opened in 1952 I think), and has ( Read more... ) -
Fireworks Are Made Of Hot Stuff
I was hoping to have some pics of the 4th of July fireworks, but it didn't pan out. We ended up going to the Fireworks show in Marana this time, as it seemed the best option. Last time we went into downtown Tucson to catch the traditional "A mountain" fireworks, but meh, you can't get close enough to A mountain for one thing, they block the area ( Read more... ) -
Happy Birthday to Me
As of yesterday, I'm another year older, another year fartier. Although I am quite lucky to still be here really, so I should be grateful. I went out for a birthday dinner last night with my mother, we went to the Outback Steakhouse just down the road since we had a gift card for them. We both enjoyed our dinners. I had the sirloin steak and ( Read more... ) -
The Return of Frankenstein?
I had my regular appointment with my pain management doc yesterday. So I was sitting in the waiting room, reading a magazine, I think it was a "Time", but it was a really thin magazine. Maybe magazines are shrinking the way cereal boxes are? Anyway, there was this article about different languages around the world that are dead/dying, and this ( Read more... ) -
Random Weird Quote of the Day
I was at the grocery store a little while ago to grab a couple things, and I'm at the automatic checkout machine paying for the groceries when I overhear this:
"Are those elephants' butts?"
I have no idea. -
Paranormal Activity Yawn
Watched Paranormal Activity 4, got it from Netflix. It wasn't any better or worse than the first 3, just more of the same. The problem with this franchise is that, after the first movie, they where too predictable. All 4 contain the same general stuff, and they all pretty much end the same way. I also think they should have gone a different ( Read more... ) -
A Rude Awakening For Dogs.
Okay, time for a giggle.
The joys of owning a dog, #397: Seeing your dog fart itself awake.
Okay, I'll confess, I've done the same thing before. A bit scary, I thought someone had broken in.
