further ranting from the FOUK

See, while I am not in total agreement with my dear Bro. I do have to say how much Ep 1&2 have fallan from the greatness that was the original versions of Eps 4-6. and the fact that if I was going to be in town and not out of town for work I would still most likely be in line for Ep 3 does not mean anything either.

That said, I would now like to take up a slight rant on the proper etiquette of the midnight showing line. I have attended several midnight showings, this started with Ep 1 back in Anchorage and I went directly after work and hung out in line from 5:15pm to 12:01 when the showing went on. I did this gladly as my then roommates got the tickets for us by doing something similar three weeks prior. See that is turn about it is fair and it is just.

What bugs me are the friends that happen to tag along and benefit repeatedly from your sacrifice. I have a friend that I will call Zeus for the sake of annoyminity. He neither bought tickets for nor waited in line for any of the following: HP1, HP2, EP 2, Matrix Reloaded, LOTR 1,2,or 3 all of which he attend with me and other friends.

For each of those I waited in line pretty much from the time that I got off of work to be able to get good seats for me and my friends. Other friends would buy the tickets or show up halfway. which I can understand as each of us had different schedules. But Zeus would ineveitably show up right before we walked into the theatres or a couple of times after we had already gone in. And if you have ever tried to hold seats from fangeeks you know that you are taking your life in your own hands be it from a lightsaber, broom, or various LOTR swords. these people carry weapons!!

Any ways I think that I have lost what my original point was so I am going to say goodbye.

what else can we cross breed?

So I was just reading a story about the world's first Wholphin. This is a new mammal species from a male false killer whale and a female bottle nosed dolphin.

This got me to thinking what if we start crossbreeding all the other different animals. Just imagine the possiblity?:

Liger = a lion and a tiger I mean who in teh animal kingdom would be stupid enough to mess with this guy? The only problem is getting past that whole racial thing of Asians and Africans*, but hey look at Tiger Woods.

Mon-chi chi = crossing a Monkey with a chi hua hau, this really has no useful purpose other then giving us an animal named Mon-chi chi which is just fun to say. :-)

Eleraffe = a elephant and a Giraffe, i just think that this would be the funniest thing ever.

*this of course could possibly be complete assumption on my part as i have never actually heard about racial annoymosity towards Africans from Asians or vice versus.

Update

So sorry about not posting for so long, I have been out of town for awhile. Actually I have been back in town for the last week but before that I was out of town for awhile.

I was in Vegas for fun 3 weekends ago and then out in the middle of the Mojave desert doing a couple of schools for work 2 weekends ago. This last weekend I stayed in town and worked out. Man I am sore.

Vegas was alot of fun it was the end of Spring break so the eye-candy was insane. I go out to Vegas 2-4 times a year for the last 3 years and have never seen it like that before. *tear* it was one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen. No but in all seriousness it was. lol

I gambled, I play mostly craps which I still don't fully understand but I do pretty well at it. I was up and down all weekend and wound up walking away up $190.00 so all in all the weekend was pretty good for me.

two weeks ago I was in the blazing sun, getting fried, actually it was pretty good and alot of fun I got out on the track on a bike myself during the schools lunch break and got around the track pretty fast for me. I was dragging my knee around alot of the turns. Man I love Motorcycle riding. If you have never done it there is definitely a great feeling about putting your knee down and dragging it across the ground throughout a turn going about 70mph. I do not recommend that you do this on the street, and only do it if you are an experienced rider and have alot of track time under your belt and are comfortable with being that far leaned over. Also never ever try on a harley or cruiser type bike. actually I never recommend that you try this.

This last weekend I joined a gym, and I have worked out these past 3 days and I feel GREAT! I can hardly move but man do I feel good.
