Yes, I am fully aware that the subject for this post is completely lost on you. For that, I make exactly zero apologies. Perhaps if you read Fark.com more, you’d have a clue. But even then, if you did, you might wonder why the hell I chose to quote that particular line, or for that, I have no answer. Actually, I do, but it’s sort of an inside joke I have with myself.

I was bad this weekend. Added another five DVD’s to the collection. But let’s face it, how can one resist cheap Empire Records and The Prophecy. Also included were Rounders, Detroit Rock City, and The Last Boy Scout. Who says that the bargain bins are full of crap? I did resist cheap, used Pi, and the second and third Prophecy movies. Mmmmm….Christopher Walken. I also grabbed The Exorcism of Emily Rose several days ago at BlockBuster.

I have concluded that once again, along with some stuff I am still waiting on (read: Transformers, Spider-Man 3, Ghost Rider), there are several more flicks I think will be worth my time coming out soon. I won’t waste a lot of time talking about them, when you can just go view the trailers if you like. So, for your time wasting pleasure: Bug, Hot Fuzz , The Number 23, Fantastic Four 2, 300, Grindhouse, and Dead Silence.

I have also put together a couple ideas for two new plays. One sort of weird and twisted, but I think ultimately happy and mysterious (think Big Fish…sort of). The other…more suspenseful, but proper ending. I say that because those who have read my other two one acts have noted my penchant for not being a happy ending sort of guy. This one will be rough, but justice shall be served. I have the basic premise for it, need to outline the plot arc still. I think the first is one-act material, the other full length.

I have managed to successfully change my computer usage habits. I am basically never online at home any more. It’s sorta nice. And now with football over, my free time really is free time that I can spend getting stuff done or being with my girlfriend. I think I’m about ready to start writing a bunch more. And I have a ton to read as well. And there’s a couple web projects I think I want to take on to put a little more coin in my purse. We’ll see. I’m still trying to save up a down payment for a house, so any projects that facilitate that will be good ones. I also plan on starting in on the Triumph the minute the weather settles down into something tolerable.

I find it worth mentioning that I’m not really angry, or frustrated, or bent out of shape about anything lately. Like, I am very much totally content with things. It’s a rather nice new feeling. I’m not sure if this is like a temporary break from old thigns, or the new norm, but it works well for me. I have new clarity on stuff, like there’s less noise in the signal lately. Maybe that’s why I’m getting new play ideas too. Overall a creative boost.

I think I might do the Oklahoma Freewheel this year, instead of BAK. First off, BAK is expensive. Secondly, it’s ending way the hell up in NE Kansas. Freewheel is cheap, and it’s ending in Coffeyville, which is hellaciously convenient. I also think it is a day shorter. But I need to step up the training more. Much, much more. I started off good, but then I slacked off. I admit it. Please, someone, give me hell about it. Call me a pansy or something.

That is all. 10-4, over and out.
