Less Political
After talking to myself about it, we decided to form a steering committe with me, myself, and I. The conclusion that we reached within the committe and will present to the rest of me is that we reccommend not to do quite as much political rants as have been done in the past. To do something political, you realy need to be on top of events as they happened, and we really dont have the time to do this at the moment. In addition, it really just doesn’t interest us anymore.
Death Race
While I dont think anything can top the Original, the remake might be halfway interesting. For those who havent seen the old one, here’s what Wikipedia says:
Death Race 2000 is a cult action film directed by Paul Bartel in 1975. The movie takes place in a dystopian American society in 2000. [...] One of Mr. President’s most famous decrees has been that of the Transcontinental Road Race, a violent spectacle that takes a small set of racers from New York to ‘New’ Los Angeles, California, leaving death and destruction in their wake.
Now the remake seems to follow a similar road-type race however the main antognist seems to be the prison warden and the race seems to be confined to an enclosed area instead of a cross-country trek. Follow the jump to see the new redband trailer. Read the rest of this entry »
Post Turtle
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher, whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.
Eventually the topic got around to Obama and his bid to be our President.
The old rancher said, ‘Well, ya know, ‘Obama is a ‘post turtle’.
Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what’s a ‘post turtle’?
The old rancher says, ‘When you’re driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top ,feet a’flailing in the air, that’s a ‘post turtle’.
‘You know he didn’t get up there by himself, he doesn’t belong up there, he doesn’t know what to do while he is up there, and you just wonder what kind of a dumb ass put him up there.’
