Why No Good Movies?

Has anyone else realized good movies are so few and far between these days? When was the last time you've seen a really good movie? The last movie I was impressed by was Juno. Stardust is another good one I've seen recently. Why are no good movies coming out any more and what was the last good movie you've seen?

Pet Peeve of the Week: Don't Tip Your Cap to Me Home Slice

I was at the gym the other day and realized a disturbing trend. This guy was working out with his baseball cap turned sideways. Not all the way to the side (haven't seen that move pulled since the days of Vanilla Ice), this is the slightly cocked sideways tilt. I realize this move has been utilized for some time now, but it still grates my cheese. First of all, wearing a hat at the gym is weird anyway. Second of all, this guy had to look in the mirror and think to himself, "How can I be dangerous and sexy at the same time while pumping some serious iron?" So he puts on his little hat....and thinks, "Something is still missing. I'm not truly thugged out enough yet." Then a moment of true gangster genius strikes. "I've got it! If I but tilt my hat to the side ever so slightly everyone will think that I'm totally hard core." What a loser. Why is a tilted hat cool anyway? I'm really K-Fed up with this whole gangster trend. Is it more comfortable this way? I've done some field research and the answer is no way homay. Bottom line Tupac, if you have to take more than 3 seconds to put on a hat and adjust it to perfection so it looks "good," chances are- you a girl son. So my homedogs of the tilted hat trend, go with the hat straight forward and avoid looking like you're auditioning for the Wu-Tang Clan. Oh and let me hit you wit some more knowledge bro. Chances are if you wear your hat this way, you might need to check out my post on sunglasses. T-Dog out.

Chronicles of the Online Hunt: Setting the Trap and Experimenting

After days of witty dialogue with a frequent visitor to the watering hole I was successful in capturing one of these elusive cyber creatures. I was able to study this animal up close last weekend. We will call this specimen, subject A1. I was able to observe subject A1's eating habits as well as other qualities specifically unique to this species. A1 has recently migrated from the region of California. She is a new member to the Mormon heard. A1 is responsive to sushi and movies. Subject A1 is also responsive to verbal stimuli. I had another encounter with subject A1 last night. She seems to be partial to comedic situational television shows, such as The Office. Subject A1 is a fun specimen but I think I will have to let her back into the wild. However, I would like to track this specimen and maintain a good relationship.

Chronicles of the Online Hunt: Laying the Bait

I have recently decided to go hunting on LDS Singles, an Internet dating website. I've been in this digital wilderness now for about 2 weeks and I will report my findings thus far:
For the first few days I mostly observed the grazing habits of the females in this strange land. I had little success getting too close to the majority of the herd. The slightest noise or movement seemed to scare them off. Note: I did have immediate success with the larger game but I prefer the more gamy meat. I evaluated the situation and decided my bait (profile picture and introduction) was not sufficient for this type of creature. So I beefed it up so to speak. Added a picture that was overly complementing of my looks and put some pictures in my photo album. Then I made my intro a little more wordy and added an interests list. This tactic seemed to attract the more desirable females in this land. The prey was now coming to eat small amounts of food I had laid down around me. However, they would not yet eat out of my hand . What could be wrong? Note: Larger game still seems to be a problem, could be scaring off smaller game or using up all the bait. Even when I ignore large game they still seem to infiltrate my camp. Must try harsher tactics. I am getting ready to spring a few of the traps that I've set. I'll report my findings when and if I capture any of these creatures. It would be wonderful to be able to study these animals up close and in a controlled environment.
