Did I eat it or did I rub it on my face?

Ugh... late night McDonald's run not treating me so well. I always think of the Jim Gaffigan sketch, where he's talking about hot pockets. "I've never eaten a hot pocket and then afterwards, been like 'I'm glad I ate that.' I'm always like, 'I'm gonna die...' "

I realize it's been a few posts since I mentioned South Park, and since it's already the end of the first half of season 12, this could be my last chance till October. All in all, I'd have to say B+. Solid B, for sure. I wasn't sold on the Britney Spears episode, but the 'Canada on Strike' and 'Super
Fun Time' were both pretty fantastic. I like the full circle on Mr/s. Garrison, though I'm a little disappointed that his new friend/mouse/penis didn't reprise the role in 'Super Fun Time'. I figured it was a return to the Mr. Hat days for sure.



I also have to say I'm pretty psyched for the upcoming movie season, what with 'Iron Man' coming this week, 'Speed Racer' the next, and 'The Dark Knight' shortly after that. 'Speed Racer' sounded lame, but after seeing the trailer, I'm pretty excited. For one, it's being done by the Wachowski Siblings, who, you might recall, also made 'The Matrix Trilogy' and 'V for Vendetta'. On a side note, I've been told that one of the Wachowskis had a sex change, so they're going by Siblings now.

P.S. Go Philly.

Vipers? Lamborghinis? Nick's story isn't going anywhere

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of posts. Been busy with exams. Meh.

Been watching some more hockey. Man, Detroit is so lame. Won in overtime, on a beautiful breakaway and goal. Definitely earned it, but I still gotta say, damn nazi communists. Watched part of the Anaheim game, but decided to go drinking with Nick instead. Solid choice.



Disappointed with South Park last night. Well done, well written, but I don't know, didn't enjoy it as much as some of the other ones. More to follow. Nick's telling me it's my shot in drunken Wii golf.

So... come here often?

Second day of absolutely no news.

Actually, that's not true. Sens are officially out of the playoffs, losing their fourth game in a row to Crosby and the Pens. I missed the game, but caught the handshakes at the end. A matter of time, in my opinion. Now we can all get back to the important games, like Anaheim versus Dallas, and Philly versus Washington. Like Anaheim, hate Dallas. Philly, I'm only cheering for because of my fondness for Danny Briere. He's a cool guy.



Nashville-Detroit also played tonight, Nashville pulling off a huge win to tie the series 2-2. Good news for Preds fans, because the Red Wings are a tough team. I don't know if it's all the red, but I keep likening them to communists in my mind, circa like 25 years ago. If you don't watch out, they'll steal your children! Just kidding. But seriously.

New South Park comes out tonight. I've been very impressed with the last few South Park episodes, particularly the Canada on Strike episode playin on the WGA strike, and then last week where it dealt with the two subjects simultaneously, Mr/s Garrison on the one hand, and the shot at the Patriots/Lean on Me ripoff on the other. Seems like they've been trying to get back to their roots a bit, which is good news. Sometimes I feel like the pressure of making a controversial episode gets to them a bit and Matt and Trey churn out stuff like the Britney Spears episode. Well done guys.
