Soul Plane (Review)

Image
Soul Plane This movie is an embarrassment to every race out there. Why? It’s because this movie shows the very worst of the black culture. Sometimes, the movie’s humor is tasteless, while other times it’s random. There’s not much of a plot to the movie, and it moves from one subplot to another without much transition or playoff. Some subplots are just dropped all together and forgotten. Basically, there is a guy that rides on an airplane, and he’s treated poorly. During the opening, his dog is ejected from the flying plane and killed by its engine. Somehow, this is supposed to be funny. He then sues the Airplane Company and wins. He takes his settlement and starts his own company geared toward ghetto types. He names it NWA Airlines. Why? No one knows or cares why he names it after an old gangster rap group. The cast is made up of actors that should have known better than to sign up for such a crappy movie. Any movie with Mo'Nique in it will aut...

Man vs Gator

Golfer gets jacked by a gator… http://www.local10.com/news/8990767/detail.html?subid=22100404&qs=1;bp=t Comment: (( PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. -- An alligator attacked a Coral Springs man who was diving in a pond to recover golf balls Tuesday. Police said Steven Martinez was diving for golf balls at the Links of Boynton Beach at 8020 Jog Road when the gator grabbed his left forearm in its mouth.)) Well, I’ve always hated golf, and I guess this alligator felt the same way. That’s some crazy sh*t.

Galactica: 2006

Image
I haven’t really watched a much of Battlestar Galactica, but here is some interesting news from Harry’s site http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=23139 Comment: Cut and pasted from there ((ed Series 'CAPRICA' From executive producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eick ('Battlestar Galactica'), writer Remi Aubuchon ('24') and NBC Universal Television Studio, this new series is set over a half a century before the events that play out in 'Battlestar Galactica.' The people of the Twelve Colonies are at peace and living in a society not unlike our own, but where high-technology has changed the lives of virtually everyone for the better. But a startling breakthrough in robotics is about to occur, one that will bring to life the age-old dream of marrying artificial intelligence with a mechanical body to create the first living robot - a Cylon. Following the lives of two families, the Graystones and the Adamas (the family of William Adama, who will ...

Thunder Over Louisville

Image
Every year, around this time, there is a big event that opens up to the derby activities. This big event is called Thunder Over Louisville. It is one of the largest fireworks shows in the US; believe me. The fireworks go off with music, perfectly timed. When I was younger, I used to go to this event all the time. I actually enjoyed watching the show; I didn’t really care for the air show. However, as I grew older and more standoffish, I began disliking the crowds of drunken zombies that gathered near the riverfront park. This year, I didn’t go to Thunder, and I’m glad I didn’t. Here’s why… 2006 "Thunder Country " I’m not watching anything country. Part of the air show, some jet… _____________________________________________________________ Uh, fireworks, lots of them… ____________________________________________ This was part of the clean up. BTW, I swear this is the Can Lady that had all those cans on the highway, you know the same one that ...

Abrams clears up some false info

Just more news on the new Star Trek movie http://www.chud.com/index.php?type=news&id=6513 Comment: I agree with the Chud here. If MI:III is a huge hit, I believe JJ Abrams will handle the writing and producing duties. Let's hope they still keep Berman out of it.

Shatner sings again

Why William Shatner Rules the universe… http://www.ifilm.com/ifilmdetail/2722361 Comment Shatner is a king among men. This one has Shatner singing Taxi. This one is great. Got to love that collar, it looks like it’s going to fly away. Creepy

unintentionally borrowed

I Love Spin, here is another reason why http://books.monstersandcritics.com/news/article_1158355.php/Young_novelist_copied_%60unintentionally%60 Comment: This is great; everyone is stealing from everyone else. ((NEW YORK, NY, United States (UPI) -- A 19-year-old Harvard sophomore whose newly released book is a hot seller says she unintentionally borrowed from another author `s work.)) How do you unintentionally borrow? Okay, I go to a friend’s house and I take his Xbox 360. Does that mean I unintentionally borrowed his system? What about cars? “I’m sorry, your honor, but I unintentionally borrowed that guy’s car.” Now, there are many people that end up having the same idea, but this below is different. ((Harvard`s Crimson Web site cited 13 instances in which Viswanathan`s book closely paralleled McCafferty`s work, but the New York Times said there are at least 29 passages that are strikingly similar.))

10 more things about me...

Image
Ten More things… 11) I used to be a huge Transformers fan. I had many of the toys, too bad they’re all gone. 12) My second home during childhood was in Memphis. I spent half my summers there, because most of my father's side of the family lives there. 13) I have a knack of singing old 80s and 90s songs at random times for no reason. Usually people will join me in the singing. 14) My smartass remarks were legendary in high school. Teachers and students hated my negative attitude. Which made me happy... 15) I’ve had someone threaten to shoot me before. Fun stuff. 16) I’ve had a Ex-Marine threaten to kill me if he saw me outside of work. (Separate incident from the one above). 17) The first girl I really fell in love with went by the name of Latoya F. Like all my life stories, it didn’t end happy. Nothing ever does. 18) I didn’t go to my Senor Prom. I was so enraged with the social structure in high school that I didn’t want to be part of any social event. Plus, most of the women we...

Super Mario on Ice

Super Mario on Ice http://www.ifilm.com/ifilmdetail/2721326 Comment: What the hell? Jason Bateman and Alyssa Milano in the same video with a lame version of Super Mario…on ice. This is one of the reasons I can’t stand Nintendo. Here are some burning questions about this crappy video. Why is King Koopa fat and gay? Why does Mario sound like Fred Flintstone? Why are they using guns to kill the bad guys? Why does the princess sound like Fran Drescher ? This movie is 6 mins of crap.

energy drinks

Image
Something Awful has some very funny reviews on energy drinks. http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=3647 I am now hooked on energy drinks as a way to keep myself up at night, so I can finish some homework and creative writing. While these things work really well, they mostly taste bad. I guess they can’t taste too good, because people wouldn’t stop drinking them. Anyway, the writers at Something Awful are funny guys, so enjoy the reviews

Star Trek Lives?

Spock: “No Shatner, No Braga, No Berman? Highly Illogical” ____________________________________________________________ Star Trek Lives? http://www.eonline.com/News/Items/0,1,18863,00.html?fdnews Comment: What does LOST and Star Trek have in common? Okay, besides the 47s. The creator of LOST is in talks to take over the Star Trek Franchise. Read below… (( Young Kirk. Young Spock. Mr. Lost . Those are the components Paramount Pictures has assembled to revive its sputtering Star Trek franchise. A new big-screen movie, apparently featuring the early adventures of Trek forefathers James T. Kirk and Spock, and boasting the handiwork of Lost creator J.J. Abrams , is being primed for a 2008 release. The studio wouldn't confirm the plot points, but did say Friday that the 39-year-old Abrams will produce, direct and cowrite the untitled project. His collaborators will be familiar names, to Abrams: Producers Damon Lindelof and Bryan Burk, both from Lost ; and writers...

HONOLULU Officer gets stuff Stolen From his Car

Image
Law enforcement PIG got his police equipment jacked http://www.thehawaiichannel.com/news/8863436/detail.html?subid=22100441&qs=1;bp=t Comment: (( HONOLULU -- An officer's handgun, uniform and badge were stolen from a car Wednesday afternoon, according to officials. The officer's personal car, not a police-subsidized vehicle, broke down near Geiger Road in Ewa Beach near the Honouliuli Sewage Treatment Plant. When he returned, he found that someone had allegedly broken into his car and stolen what was inside, police said. The officer's gun belt, pepper spray, baton and handcuffs were also taken.)) You know crime is bad when even the cops aren’t safe. I wonder whom does a cop call when he gets jacked? When he calls, does it take an hour for them to get there?

Throw them a 'sign'

Image
School Girl who skipped school had to hold up a sign as punishment http://www.thekansascitychannel.com/news/8868318/detail.html?subid=22100413&qs=1;bp=t Comment: (( KANSAS CITY, Kan. -- A girl who skipped school Thursday received an unusual punishment from her father. "I told her she could either get disciplinary actions at home, or she could go up the street and hold a sign for 30 minutes," Wesselman told KMBC's Kris Ketz.)) Found this punishment pretty neat. Hell, I think everyone should do this everyday. The sign said this… "I skipped school so I don't have to learn so my Dad made me this sign so I can be ready for the future. God Bless."

24/Calorie Mate

Image
Jack Bauer is a busy man, but he still has time to do ads in Japan http://www.ifilm.com/ifilmdetail/2719534 Comment: I found this 24 -spoof ad selling Calorie Mate snacks extremely goofy. It’s from Japan and has Jack Bauer running with a cell phone and a Japanese guy trying to give him a snack. I wonder how much Kiefer Sutherland got paid for this one.

Snake this

Image
Snakes evolved on land http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2006-04/20/content_4451239.htm Comment: ((BEIJING, April 20 (Xinhuanet) -- A newly discovered fossil of the most primitive snake known, a crawling creature with two legs, adds evidence to the argument that snakes evolved on land, scientists report Thursday. The discovery was made in Rio Negro province of Argentina. The snake's anatomy and the location of the fossil show it lived on land, researchers say. Snakes are thought to have evolved from four-legged lizards, losing their legs over time. But scientists have long debated whether those ancestral lizards were land-based or marine creatures.)) Yeah, but that doesn’t explain where Karl Rove evolved from. I’m sorry about that…

My Day at an Indian Restaurant Part two

Image
Sweet Last Time on Star Trek: TNG . A recap and then… And, now the conclusion. ______________________________________________- While I sat there waiting for whatever dish I picked, I began to look around the table, noticing that I was the only one without a date or a loved one. I never gave it much thought, but here I am the Lone-freaking Ranger sitting here with my date happy friends. Then it got worst… “Will this all be on one check or separate checks?” the waiter said, almost appearing out of nowhere. I looked up at him and said, “Those two are the same check and those two are on a different check together. And, then that leaves me the single guy on a separate check.” Everyone at the table laughed. And, I looked up and the waiter was laughing too! Thanks guys… Well, as the wait went on. I noticed a flicker of amber colors being reflected on my glass. I looked to my right to the large table with the Indian family. One of the 10 year olds decided it would be neat hover an ...

My Day at an Indian Restaurant Part One

Image
My Day at an Indian Restaurant Part One This happened a few months back. A friend of mine called me and told me that his girlfriend was having a birthday coming up and she wanted to go out and celebrate. She wanted to choose the restaurant. She narrowed down her choices to two options. One was an Indian restaurant, while the other was a fondue restaurant. I was not going to eat at a Fondue restaurant. No way in burn-nating hell I was. So, I told him to ‘convince’ his girlfriend to lean toward the Indian Restaurant. She chose the Indian Restaurant. Like millions of others, I saw Along Came Polly . I was a little fearful of the after effects of Indian food. I wondered if I would have ended up like Ben Stiller’s character, sweating and farting. However, the other side of me wanted to try new and interesting things. When I got to the restaurant, with a set of other friends a married couple, I entered the restaurant. The first thing I saw was a big fat C rating sign barely visible o...

William Shatner loves George Lucas

Image
yo yo yo, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p55YD8QhQ3o Comment: Watch as Shatner sings to George Lucas. This one is funny. I just love the way William Shatner reacts to the word “Star Wars”. I have to give credit to Shatner for making fun of himself and his EGO. Note: Watch Harrison Ford nearly fall out of his seat in laughter.

Death by Microwave

Image
Man uses microwave as a weapon to kill his girl friend http://www.thepittsburghchannel.com/news/8690991/detail.html?subid=22100406&qs=1;bp=t Comment: This is messed up. ((Police said a man used a microwave oven to attack his live-in girlfriend and then beat her to death early Thursday morning in Uniontown, Fayette County.)) What in the world? ((Walter Fordyce, 58, said he began arguing with Mary McCann, 55, after she refused to heat up roast beef sandwiches for him, according to police. Fordyce allegedly told police that he threw McCann on the floor, threw the microwave onto her chest and beat her head against the floor until she lost consciousness.)) Uh, couldn’t you just warm up the sandwiches yourself? What a bum…

Dave Chappelle gives us a reason why

Image
http://www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/TV/04/13/people.chappelle.ap/index.html Comment: Even though I liked Dave’s talent, I felt that he shouldn’t have walked away from 50 million, and a hit show. His second season was one of the best things on TV. ((Professionally: "I felt like I was really pressured to settle for something that I didn't necessarily feel like I wanted.")) Okay, I feel ya there, but come on, this was something you wanted your whole life. If I finally reached my dreams, I would fight tooth and nail (tooth and huh?) to keep it. I just have a problem with people who walk away from their dream jobs.
