the forgotten

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

Are you watching?

Christian Slater is in it.

Good but not great.

Great was where Christian Slater was last year.  My Own Worst Enemy.  Great.

Still a little bitter.

At least you could show all the shows you filmed.

Don’t remember his name, but Jimmy from Yes Dear.

He too was great.  In everything.  But especially in Enemy.

Now, the forgotten will fare much better in history.  It is Jerry Bruckheimer after all.  Because it is Jerry Bruckheimer, and is not on NBC, it will probably live a lot longer.

Come on NBC, keep the good shows.  Life.  Enemy.  I know Leno and Dateline are easy, but do you really want easy?  Apparently you do.

Amazing Race 15 epi 2

Monday, October 5th, 2009

OK I am loving the team with the guy with Asperger’s. Having a kid that NEEDS routine, I really admire the fact that he’s willing to step out and do this.

Also like the father/son with pink hair team.

There is a team that I don’t like, but not for the reason you would think.

Can you believe how many family members can fit on one motor bike?

Did I tell you that I have finally figured out my perfect CBS approved team mate?  Me and Mama.  Yes, me and the mother of my children.  Would you not watch that?  I totally would.

Vietnam has a lot of brightly dressed and smiley children.

Apparently you don’t have to pass an IQ test to get onto the show.

Teams were pretty much neck and neck the whole way.  First on the mat came down to the Globe Trotters and the athletic/dating since high school couple.  Is there a need for me to tell you that the Globetrotters won the foot race?  Well, they did.  The girl couldn’t keep up.

So, it was

  1. Globe Trotters
  2. Meghan and Cheyne
  3. Father and Pinky
  4. Miss America and hubby
  5. Sam & Dan (brothers)
  6. Poker Players
  7. Mika & Canaan
  8. Zev & Justin
  9. Lance & Keri (attorney and fiance’)

The dating couple Marcy and Ron were eliminated.

Somebody loses their passport next week.

My Own Little Memento

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

Did you ever see that movie Memento?  Good.  Loved it.

There is likely not to be a spoiler contained herein as I don’t remember the actual plot all too well.  But, the main character had issues with his short term memory so he carried a Polaroid with him so he could take pictures and write pertinent information on them before his mind went blank.  Now that I think about it, did he ever wonder why he was holding a camera that spit out photos instantly?  For the really important items in his life he’d have tattood…tattooed??? Anyway, he’d get a tattoo that detailed the ‘portant stuff.

I need to start doing that.  I need to take a picture of the washing machine and force myself to carry that picture around until the laundry is done.  Or take a picture of where I put my phone, keys and purse when I put them down so that I can find them when I’m about ready to leave the house.

Y’all saw that right?  Hubby rolling his eyes.  He’s been trying to train me for years to keep them all in a spot by the door.  I hope he knows the frequency of eye rolling is a clear indicator of the likelihood of divorce.

Of course carrying around a Polaroid all day might become annoying, I’d need a place to keep that so that I would know where it was when I needed it.

I think I’ll keep it next to the purse and keys.


Huh?
