The Seventh Seal

Alright, I just finished this movie last night and am a little confused.

Ok, I initially thought the knight was just trying to evade Death as long as he could, thats why he challenged him to the game of chess, he probably figured that there is no way he could win anyways. So as we proceed more through the movie he meets up with several other folk, like the actors and the smith & his wife.


SPOILER ALERT if you haven't seen it and want too... so don't keep reading.





Near the end of the movie, it shows the knight playing chess again with Death, but now Death will have checkmate in one move, but as they go, the actor guy and his family are sneaking away. So my interpretation is that the knight knows he is screwed, but has a chance to distract Death and allow the actor and his family to elude Death. BUT at the very end when Death visits everyone else at the knights castle, he ends up taking everyone that was there.

So what did they do to be taken away?

Was it the simple act of being associated with the knight?

Was the smiths wife taken because she ran off with another guy?

Why was the knights wife taken, but was only in about 5 min of the movie?

I need some help with this and will be consulting the internets for some answers...

In the same fashion as the Beastie Boys when they made "Awesome; I F*****n' Shot That!" , Daft Punk threw out a bunch of video cameras to concert goers at one of their ALIVE 2007 shows and put together an amazing video of their mix of Harder Better Faster Stronger/Around The World... damn... I wish I was there.

Steven Seagal - Energy Drink Maker Guy

While visiting the local Wal-Mart, I noticed a can of energy drink with a pic of Steven Seagal on it. So I told my wife we should buy it as a fun present for her brother. So we did, but never gave it to him... lucky him.

I decided to give it a try and see if it was any good and here are the results:

It's not.

I'm betting its probably the Goji Berry and Cordyceps... whatever those are.

The funniest thing though and probably the most confusing, is a little item at the top of the can that says "Asian Experience Energy Drink".


What does that mean?!? If I drink this, I will know what it is like to be an Asian with energy? First, it tastes like ASS... and no, I don't taste much ass, but if I did, this would be it. Also, if thats what it feels like to be Asian, I dont want to be. I was wired and shaky all day, I feel for those people that feel like this every day of their lives.

Next up is a lovely little quote on the bottom of the can that shows how much knowledge Steven Seagal has when it comes to energy drinks AND it shows he is angry ALL THE TIME:


There ya have it... I just did a energy drink review for everyone and didn't really mean to do it.

I saved the can so I can show everyone how hardcore I am when it comes to energy drinks, Rockstars have nothing on Mr. Seagal.

Beastula has been smitten!

Thats right... my wish has come true!

HiLlArY LoSt... 3rd place! HA! w00t!

Hopefully this momentum continues... BUT we still have 11 more months of this crap to endure.

I am an avid listener to NPR since I have a somewhat long commute to work and its all they talk about. You know it is a slow news day when they start reporting on what the canidates ate at a state fair... WHO CARES. Alright, so if they chose a deep fried twinkie, that means they are not going to pull out of Iraq, but if they chose funnel cake, they will... I guess it makes sense.

I heart Fridays. The second best day of the week, since you get to look forward to the first best day of the week which is Saturday. The worst day of the week is a toss up, its either Sunday or Monday. Sundays suck because you know you have to go to work the next day BUT Mondays suck ALSO because you are back at work and the weekend has ended.

Another thing I heart is Daft Punk... I cant get enough of it, either can my kids. Its all they and I listen too. I just hope my wife isnt too sick of it, I know she enjoys watching the kids dance to it though.... which reminds me of a childhood memory. I'm not exactly sure how old I was, maybe between the ages of 5-10, my dad would always cook a delicious breakfast on Saturday mornings. As he got started, he would always put on some kind of music, Michael Jackson's Thriller album was always a family fav, which is odd for my dad, but anyways... The one song that we loved the most was Funkytown by Lipps, Inc. My brothers and I would just get down with the funky sounds and dance all over the front room to this song... So it gives me the warm and fuzzies to see my kids doing the same thing!


Have fun, hold the fort and keep the home fires burning. And if I'm not back by dawn... call the president.

FINALLY

Iowa caucuses are today... FINALLY. I dont usually follow these things, but I am sick of the Presidential primaries. I'm done hearing these grown up people bicker like little school children... "I'm cooler than you", "You smell like butt" blah blah blah... Hopefully i'm not the only one that feels like this.

JUST GET IT OVER WITH DAMMIT!!!!

My only wish right now is for Hillary to lose horribly.

Happy New Year! and some junk...

Hi.

It is here.... 2008, a nice even year. If you add up all the numbers it equals 10, so all you conspiracy people figure that one out and let me know if there is some wierd end of the world apocalypse thing that will happen soon, so I can get ready.

Anyways, Hi again.

Since its a new year, what better time to think about doing something good. My plan, along with my wife, is to get hot and sexy (she already is, I have a long way to go) for our family vacation to California. I'm figuring about 30lbs by April, which is totally doable, as long as I actually do it. Now that is has been written, let it be done.


Winter sucks.

Bye.
