Emerson




Baby arrived just about a month ago and since then its been like living with Paris Hilton, she sleeps all day and parties all night...

Has anyone seen my heart? I lost it on November 16 near the Labor & Delivery Suites at Methodist Hospital.

Huh? Baby Names?


As I ponder this great debate, I have been subjected to suggestions and memories of how someone chose the name of their child.

To date the best memory is that of a co-worker that suddenly woke-up from a dream and the name of her child was right there...

OMG! If for me it could only be that easy...

The child's name would have to Carmen Electra or Pamela Anderson or even Halle Berry.

Carmen Electra is Scientific



Just like every other Playboy Playmate, Carmen Electra says she will make the natural transition into the study of quantum physics.

"I'm really into quantum physics. Some of my friends are into it, some of them aren't, so I'm trying to get them excited about discovering all these interesting things about thoughts and the power of thoughts. It gives me chills thinking about it. It's fun."

The "power of thoughts" should have told Carmen Electra that watching Mr. Wizard really shouldn't be that big of a life changing experience.... Somebody should just tell her to take all her clothes off and look in the mirror. Then she'll realize that’s she's Carmen Electra. She's not supposed to be trying to secure grant money for research on her time machine; she's supposed to be naked. The only scientific formula she needs to know is that the solid blue line means you're pregnant.

going, going, gone...

It was bound to happen, you can only tempt fate so many times, before it gets you.
It is often said that those that leave first are the ones that will be missed the most. Steve "Crocodile Hunter" Irwin died doing what he loved!

RIP Steve...

Mirror, mirror on the wall, why are you glued?


After reading tons of DIY articles on how to remove a glued on mirror, I thought I had it all ready, by taping it and wearing safety gogles. Ha! No one article said that it was the toughest type of glass on the planet. (I think my mirrors are made from diamonds). I think I pulled a rib muscle striking it with a hammer! The thing would not break. In the end the mirror came off the glue by prying it whole, no breaks, no cracks. Anyone want a mirror?

Movie Titles and Whatnot


Ok movie titles sometimes are a bit screwy.
The Illusionist for example, when you see pictures of Jessica Biel, do you think... illusion, mirage, or hallucination. Does she seem false? If I were a prestidigitateur, I would surely use her in my act. She would keep everyone’s eyes off of whatever I was doing...


Jessica Biel at the premier of the Illusionist:

Appeared in: Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien: Resurrection
Quote:
Hudson: let's just bug out and call it even, ok? What are we talking about this for?

Five Movies I Love

Movies I Love, are those movies that on a Sunday morning you will be walking by the bedroom TV, see the movie is on and you will spend the next hour or so glued to the TV; regardless of when the movie started.

FIVE: Conan the Barbarian.
James Earl Jones. SonT (Snakes on a Temple). I've read a few philosophical essays on the metaphors between the steel forging and the molding of Conan's body & temperament. But really the blood and hacking is what I love the best.

FOUR: Independence Day.
I hate when movie makers target me so well. This movie has it all: Patriotism, Sci-Fi, Morality, Love, Alex Reiger. Someone mentioned to me that the F/A 18 Hornets used in the movie could not maneuver the way Will Smith drove them in the canyon scene, but the movie is far more than that, the movie really can be summoned up in the President speech near the climatic battle:
"President Thomas Whitmore: Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight!" We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day! " Kick ASS!

THREE: The Hot Spot.
Don Johnson, Virginia Madsen, Jennifer Connelly. Crimes (blackmail, theft, murder by proxy). Sins (adultery, lust, avarice) all set in Texas in the summer. Directed by Dennis Hopper in a long drawn out way. Love it!

TWO: Joe Dirt.
At first, I thought this movie was about a dood with a mullet. But the movie has heart. It's well written and leaves you feeling good. I've caught myself saying: "you got to keep on keeping on" and "life is a garden, dig it". The scene with Buffalo Bill playing a psychopath like the serial killer in Silence of the Lambs is just great and the movie itself keeps referring to it with comments like "that is not what I heard..." Also Joe Dirt is sweetly driven to help everyone he meets, while he looks for his parents, I like people like that.

ONE: Rushmore.
Overachiever in everything but the things that matter. Max Fisher during adolescence identity crisis uses his charisma to woo his teacher and ends up going against Bill Murray’s character for the affections of the teacher. Fresh characters in a comedy of juxtapositions.

Superman this, Superman that...


What about Lex Luthor? K. Spacey as the villain himself...

So Lois has a kid, is it Superkid? Who cares, what about Lex?

Is there a new Ms. Teschmacher?

I hope in this movie, Lex Luthor gets the "How I got to be the evil anti-hero" treatment.

I like how the Batman movies (last one notwithstanding) told the stories of the Penguin, the Joker, even the Riddler. I hope Luthor gets the same treatment.

However it happens, the movie will be better than a day in the park....







Want more? Press play.

Pirate sighting

Hey, I was on 1604 last night and there was this one weird dood on the back of a pick-up truck wearing a red bandana pirate style on his head.

He had a cloth vest on without a shirt, couldn’t see his pants, most likely he was wearing clam-diggers or what the kids are calling it these days... Capri’s or pedal pushers....

There were a couple of girls with him in the back of the pick-up truck smoking cigarettes; my wife commented that they were pirate wenches....

arrrghhh matey ahoy!
