Not All Family Guy Episodes Hold Up

I am not a Family Guy fanatic. I like the show and I wonder what the next great joke is going to be.
I was disappointed though due to the episode was advetrtised as being highly Star Trek. It was a perfect opportunity to make fun of Star Trek nerds and just Star Trek  in general. It seemed that the episode should have been advertised for Brian being an Atheist. But FOX and the internet made a bigger deal out of the cast of Star Trek The Next Generation guest starring.

New Youtube Group

For the last few weeks my friends and I have decided to do something crazy. Reenact funny or crazy scenes from movies or TV shows. (Remember Be Kind Rewind?) This would be fun to do. easy and at no real cost. If you have any ideas to start us off please e-mail!

Bloglist updates

To avoid making my blog longer than it already is I am going to be putting a 1 month dead limit on the bloggers on my list. I have many people I follow and I want people to read their blogs too. but many have not blogged in a while. So if it does reach a month then I will delete you off of the blog list. The Only exception to this is if you are a follower. Then you will stay on indefinitely.

Banner?

Why am I using My original Banner? I have received e-mails the last couple days asking me why I am doing this. I can assure you it is not permanent. I am just having a creativity block. I will have a new one up soon I hope.

You have an Idea? Email Me!

First Time

I don't know if this is a woo hoo kind of first time or an oh no kind of first time.

There is a dog that lives on the adjacent street from me. and on that street there is a maniac psycho dog. (beagle by the way) and for a few years that dog would chase us down the street until we got home. This dog is nuts. Iguess the third year is the tipping point. The reason?

I was again walking home tonight (about an hour ago) and the beagle was harassing a stray cat. I thought "Oh good. in Safe for now." Letting my guard down was the wrong thing to do.

Tonight is the first time in the 17 years of my life that I have been bitten by a dog. Why am I posting? because it seems like the proper thing to do. This dog is truly a menace to society and I am tired of it. I am calling our usless Animal control and having that dog removed.

Above: The bite that the dog gave me.

Nature Wasted It's time

Next time Mother Nature wants to make a snowstorm she might want to consider having it around for a few days.

As I am sure my KC readers know we had quite the snow yesterday. The weather was crazy. But I get up this morning and the snow is already melting.

Now I would think that if we really wanted the snow to count then it should stick around?
hmmm.....

To Prove My Point On Rappers

Rapper TI was sentenced today for possessing machine guns and silencers. His sentence was One year. I will drop the gang name and use his real name, Clifford Harris.

Harris went touring around the US talking about the dangers of Gangs, drugs and violence. Cliff was convicted in 1998 for possession of crack cocaine.  This conviction made it impossible for him to possess a gun. So what does a criminal superstar do? Possess some pretty crazy guns and don't forget silencers.

I guess that you could blame many factors. But I will continue to have my "rappers are nothing but trouble" belief. This thing is just going to be a piece of evidence for me.

March Snow is not cool.

I am not going to like all this snow that is coming tomorrow. even though I will not be going outside or leaving my house I do not want the snow. Why!? Why cant I enjoy my March in peace and relative warmth. Damn you nature!

I want to thank Plog for calling this the Snowpocalypse. I completely agree.

I Would Hate To Be The UPS Guy In This.

The vatican will be receiving condoms next Friday as part of a protest started due to Pope Benedict's comments about condom use in Africa.

The comment was a condemnation of using condoms to stem the spread of AIDS.

After that Facebook groups started popping up saying that they would send condoms to Pope benedict in protest. Yes I did join the group. German publications stated that there is an estimated 5 million condoms to be sent.

Journalism

I am officially bowing out of the field of journalism. I feel that I have lost all touch in the field and I have no future in writing the news. Of course i will still have the blog and I will highlight things that are going on that I think are important but as far as writing news stories I am done with that. I am going to focus all of my energy on film and being the best I can be at that.

What were THEY Thinking?

Cartoon Network is scrapping the "All Cartoon" format to pave way to more reality shows and live action format. This is a risky move because of the station's name, Cartoon Network. This might be seen as a stab in the back to those of us who want Cartoon Network to be an all cartoon station.

I noticed this slow shift many many many years ago during the showing of the movie Osmosis Jones . This was the first major step that Cartoon network had made to switch.

I heard an announcement a week or so ago about the Ben 10  franchise making a second live action film. My response was Ok, they did well with Ben 10: Race Against Time so I guess I could trust this one. (More posts as evolution of the movie occurs)

So I ask you this CN. Are you really going to destroy your reputation of being an all cartoon network just so you can make a few shows that are going to fail in a year or so?

Public Schools are the Loony Bin For Educators

I can't say much for Private schools but it is true for Public schools. Anyone who has attended a public school can vouch for the fact that there is at least one teacher in your classes that is a little, well, nuts. In the next coupe of days I will have a video posted that will prove my point. The video is of Mrs. Pattison, a science teacher at Wyandotte High School.

Stargate Fans Seems Almost Evenly Divided About Stargate Universe

That is what MGM's post trailer poll is showing.




MGM's website poll for Stargate Universe seems to show that Fan's reaction from the trailer is what I had expected. The problem with the poll is that there is no section for people to comment on what there exact thoughts are.

Guardian To Be Filmed This Summer

My feature film Guardian is going to be filmed this summer. I am still looking for Cast and crew members to join and work. This will take most of the summer. I am in need of committed workers.

So do you think that you are one of these people? E-mail me and find out!

Labels?

I am considering adding labels to the blog. I have originally been opposed to it but now I can see the usage of it if I keep the categories simple.

TED Talks Second Life

This TED video is from Phillip Rosedale, creator of the popular virtual game Second Life. There is a download version of the video if you are interested.

What My College Plans Are

My plans are to attend Full Sail University in the next couple of years. I found out about this college a couple of weeks ago and was drawn into it. When I received the Full Sail "book" I was blown away by the different rooms and equipment since I am planning on majoring in film this college sems to be the correct choice.

Networks rolling out show cancellations

Tis the season for show cancellations. Networks have been releasing early renewal and early cancellation reports. ABC announced that Ugly Betty is on a early renewal schedule. Unfortunatley for Life On Mars the show was cancelled due to low second season ratings. Some bittersweet news for Friday Night Lights fans, the show is seeing a possible 2 seasons left. The show has been renewed for another season but NBC is considering ending the show.

Some sad news. CBS is undergoing cost cutting and attempting to be more cost efficient, so the network has officially called out Cold Case and Without A Trace. "Cold Case and Without A Trace no longer have the type of rating's that justify the massive overhead" a source told Entertainment Weekly.

The producers of Chuck is getting nervous due to the drop in hype the show got when it first came out. Some of the problem is the fact that Chuck seems to be trying not to recycle some old material and controlling their jokes more. The actors are now traveling across the country to recruit more viewers.

Kath And Kim Is being described as on "Life Support". No kidding. the show started out way too soft to make any big appearance. This sitcom lacked originality and comedy. Rumors are saying that when the cancellation renewal list comes out it will be the one that is on the cancellation list.

Keep it right here to see any news about cancellations and renewals.

New Section

The Loser of the month idea did not go over very well because I was accused of being too Left in my choices. SO I have decided something new that might be better than the other section.

Censorship in the web is becoming a very big problem. My school district (KCK USD 500 ) is showing that blocking can go overboard. Almost everything is now blocked.

This section will not show my views very often but will show the views of other people that I know. Some who want to tell their stories about the blocking and some who want to voice their opinions for or against.

I also urge the School districts to send me a message about their views on the subject.

If anyone comes up on a site that is blocked, please send me an e-mail with the screen cap of the blocked site.

By Friday I Will Be Fat

Friday if you look at my banner is the release of both Protector and Stargate Underground . I have been working on Protector since November and Stargate Underground for the last two years. I am excited and anxious for the release.

My method of coping with the anxiety? Eating.

My college kid eating habits kick into overdrive when something like this happens. Meaning? I will not be surprised if i roll out of bed looking like Adam Sandler in the movie Click . Even though I know that it probably will not happen but just think. Me, fat?
