Stayin' In
► Just talked to Dad a little while ago, he's back from his week long golf trip to Pennsylvania. We're not going shopping today as planned since it's already late in the afternoon, and my nerves have been crap since I awoke this morning after less than 3 hours of sleep. Feels like my blood is charged and I just can't settle down. At the moment I really do not want to go anywhere. That's good, because I won't be able to go anywhere for a few days as Dad and Claire leave tomorrow to spend the weekend at her sister's out of town. The soonest I'll be able to go for groceries and to pick up my monthly stuff at the comic book shop will be Tuesday.
Maybe the few extra days will kick me past my immediate anxiety and fear about going out, and into a cabin fever induced need to get out. It happens.
► Footprints - I probably laughed too hard at this:
► Incredible Lego Ghostbusters Tattoo - No Winston? Lame.
► Superman renounces his US citizenship - Superman, he's for everyone! But yeah, a bit too much politicizing for my taste. Especially since I presume Clark Kent is keeping his American citizenship.
As an aside, "truth, justice and the American way" was originally just "truth and justice."
► 9 movie characters who are undeniably stalkerish - Yeah, that's the other thing Bryan Singer greatly misjudged in Superman Returns. Also, I hated Wedding Crashers. Seriously.
► Report: Chuck Lorre hatches Charlie Sheen-free 'Two and a Half Men' reboot - A reboot? Really? More than half of all sitcoms are canceled during their first season. Of the rest, most will be canceled by the fourth season. Two and a Half Men had 8 incredibly successful years (never underestimate the appeal of crass, tired, mediocre sex jokes), but really, what else is there to do? As Kevin Smith once quipped when asked to write a screenplay for Beetlejuice sequel: "Didn't we say all we needed to say in the first Beetlejuice? Must we go tropical?" Maybe it's time to just pull the plug and move on.
► Charlie Sheen Seals His Two and a Half Men Fate With Vicious Attack on Chuck Lorre - From the article:"You sad silly fool. You a-hole p-y loser. Put on the gloves you low rent, nut-less sociopath; I’ll beat your chicken s-t soul in a court room into a state of gratitude. A state of surrender.”
Sheen goes on to call Lorre, “A narcissist. A coward. A loser. [And] a spineless rat,”
I'm confused as to who exactly Sheen is referring to. Sounds like someone would benefit from a little introspection. Who are you really talking about, Charlie? Does someone just need a hug, mmm?
► Chewbacca Hates Shovelling - Silly Wookie. Shovel with the wind, not against it!
