You Know Your A Dumb Ass When…
…you see that its raining outside but you forgot that you left your car window down yesterday. Then when you go out, you get to ride in a damp seat for the rest of the day.

It's official, the latest results of my Sister's check up have confirmed that she will have a Girl.
QotD: The Never-Ending Boat Ride
What's the longest boat ride you've ever been on?
That would have probably been the boat ride we took to go Snorkeling in the Red Sea while vacationing in Egypt. We were out there for at least a half day.
Meet the Robinsons
A few shots from the "Meet the Robinsons" exhibit at Artspace.
Transportation Security Administration
So I made it home safe and sound for the most part. My flight was delayed for about 15 minutes because they had let a passenger on the plane who didn't belong. She apparently was booked for the next flight out of town yet she still managed to get on the plane some how. Despite that lapse in security, I finally made it to D/FW, but the bag I checked in didn't. I know what your saying, "Why did you check in your bag in the first place". Well I pretty much had to because I couldn't take my bottle of Shampoo or Lotion with me on the plane because they were more than 3 oz. So when I spoke to the Baggage Clerk, she tells me that my bag is probably on the next flight from Shreveport and that it won't come in for another half hour. I had gotten a feeling that the airline (mostly on how the Check In Agent was acting) was going to separate me from my bag before I had left Shreveport. So after waiting around the airport for another hour, my bag finally did come in on the next fight. So when I open my bag at home there is a nice little piece of paper inside.
"Notice Of Baggage Inspection
To protect you and your fellow passengers, the Transportation Security Administration is required by law to inspect all checked baggage. As part of this process, some bags are opened and physically inspected. Your bag was among those selected for physical inspection"
Well I hope they had fun going through my dirty underwear. Did that incident really bother me? No, not really. It's just that ever since that Day, I'm always "randomly" hassled in one form or another when I take a plane ride.
Back Home In Texas
After 2 weeks of being in Shreveport, I'm finally back in home in D/FW. But I'm sure there are still some folks out there in the world who are still out of town and miss their home. So I'm dedicating this song for all of my fellow Texicans who are still far and away. Texas Song by Ms. Sandy Cheeks, the little squirrel who lives under the sea.
Shreveport Trip
As the end of my Shreveport days comes to an end, I got my sister to take me for a bit of site seeing around the Downtown area. So we took care of some personal errands first and then we head off to look around. We couldn't do to much walking because she's pregnant, so we just wound up eating lunch at the "San Fransisco Oven" on the "Louisiana Boardwalk" which is basically just an Outlet Shopping Area.
After that she took me to her former workplace which part of was an Art Gallery called "Artspace". Currently they are displaying an art exhibit of "Meet the Robinsons" on the first floor and on the upper floor there was a gallery of Photos and Paintings. The artworks that caught my eye on the upper level was the works of Shawna Atkins. Her art looked like it was straight out of a Nightmare Fairytale. I took a bunch of pictures of the exhibit, but because my sister's computer doesn't have a photo editor and I don't want to put anymore super large pictures up, I'll have to post the rest of them when I get back home sometime over the weekend. So for now have a look at the few I posted today.
Rise of the Silver Surfer – Movie Review
Mildly Recommended
The Fantastic Four return in another made for T.V. movie Rise of the Silver Surfer. This film was in no way bad, it was just O.K and I suppose that's good enough. It was definitely fun to watch and the young ones will certainly get a kick out of it.
(Spoilers)
Rise of the Silver Surfer starts off pretty much where the last one did. The 4 are now Celebrity Heroes who get way more attention then they want, well at least for Sue, who just wants a normal life. Even Sue and Reed's wedding becomes a media circus and to top it off, it gets interrupted by the Silver Surfer, who is preparing the Earth to be destroyed by a huge space storm. What the Surfer also does is accidentally resurrect Victor Von Doom. When the Human Torch confronts the Silver Surfer, it causes his molecules to become unstable and this gives him the ability to switch powers with the other 3 team members.
After the first attempt to capture the Surfer is blundered, the U.S. government enlists the help of Victor Von Doom to help the 4 in capturing the Surfer. Eventually they figure out the Surfers powers comes from his board and that they need to separate him from it. Once they separate the Surfer from his board, the Surfer not only becomes useless, but as Reed predicted, Doom turned on everyone and took the Surfers board for himself. And that leads to the climax of the film, which really made the movie for me as this was one of the most exciting endings I have seen in quite some time
Some of my personal feelings on the Rise of the Silver Surfer. I liked the chemistry between the four heroes, this film has great character moments. What was up with Dooms pussy voice, you'd figure it would have been a bit more menacing. I did like the final battle between Super Human Torch and Surfer Doom. The greatest crime of the film was the white-ification of Jessica Alba. She's cute the way she is and I don't see why they need to give her blue eyes and blonde hair, it just didn't look natural. They should have just kept her the way she is, ethnic. Bottom line, Rise of the Silver Surfer is worth seeing, just check your over-zealous fanboyism at the door or I doubt you will enjoy it.
