MY KINGDOM!: the HINES WARD of Blogs

10.2.05

EVEN I GET BOREDED!

Some random thoughts while I clean out the booze-induced dust-bunnies in my noggin’:

-I’ve officially placed Vanilla Milk into the “better than it has any right to be” file with all Sheetz food, jager bombs, and old episodes of “The Match Game.”

-Dole Orange Peach Mango juice is like the NBA, FAN-tastic.

-Though Star Trek: Enterprise is dead, Battlestar Galactica has officially been given a second season! By the way, Battlestar is the best show that you’re not watching. It’s NOT SciFi- it’s a great war-torn character drama that just HAPPENS to occur in space. I swear!

-The Greatest American Hero is on DVD. Good start, but what about the 90’s Flash tv series? Did anyone else watch that show? The Flash was played by the dad from Dawson’s Creek.

-Did you ever notice that while shopping at a super-store, like a Wal*Mart or a Target or something, that the six people you encounter while making your way through the store (the Dad overmatched by his obnoxious kid, the obnoxious kid, the young couple, the annoying teen buying annoying music, and the old lady in the Rascal) all invariably end up in the same line with you? But the seventh person you encountered in the store, “the really cute girl buying the exact same thing as you,” always ends up like, two lines over.

-I just remembered the time Kujo and I went to Wal*Mart, and since he had a leg injury, they gave him a Rascal.

-I just remembered Kujo laughing his ass off while driving around in aforementioned Rascal, getting DIRTY looks from every senior citizen in the building. Really, I thought I was going to have to take a bullet for him.

-Nicole Eggart be dammed, I honestly think that the Pembrokes made for a much more interesting dynamic than the Powells on Charles in Charge. Really, who doesn't like Lila, Douglas, and Jason? And seriously, Adam and Sarah Powell (not to mention the asshole grandfather) are both in the "Most Infuriatingly Annoying SitCom Characters" top 10.

-Two weeks running now, my ADR prof. has singled out Gavin, Sprout, and I in the middle of class while we were rudely laughing in class and making assholeish remarks. Both times, Gavin has bailed us out instantly with a well-thought out response, totally on-point, about whatever we were talking about. It’s a thing of beauty, really. If SportsCenter knew about this, he’d be on the Ultimate Highlight (which, come to think of it, is possible, because he used to work at SportsCenter…I should check into this.).

-I can’t believe I just referenced Dawson’s Creek.

-Nothing says “when you graduate Law School, you really haven’t accomplished anything” like my $3,000 Bar Bri bar review course bill, due March 1.

-“Pitchers and Catchers report” are the four best words spoken between the Superbowl and opening Day. The ONLY thing that can top them would be “I’m going to DisneyWorld!” spoken by Hines Ward.

-They’re doing a “pie the professor” thing at the charity auction tonight, and my LEAST favourite professor is on the block. When asked if I’d donate to pie him, I replied that I would only give money if I got to put thumbtacks in the pie. The lesson here is that I’ve known Uram too long.

-Two catchphrases that HAVE to go, Drew’s “Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh” and Pizz’s, “I just vomited in my mouth a little bit.” Not that I should talk, I’ve been using the positively dreadful, “I’d like to hit him in the larynx with a ball-peen hammer.”

-Actually…I kind of like that one.

-Ex Machina is an incredible comic series that’s 90% West Wing, 10% Greatest American Hero. Really, I wish I could get more people to read these things. Also, Ultimates 2 was decidedly humdrum and anti-climactic. Actually having the heroes, you know, FIGHT something would be cool.

Alright, I’m out. I’ve got papers to TA, and Findings to propose.

In the meantime, GO WATCH BATTLESTAR GALACTICA!
