Rented a George Carlin DVD tonight. Always good to see his material. The particular one we picked up was a best of compilation type deal which was mostly material of his I hadn't seen/heard. Highly enjoyable.

Oh, and I now have every episode of Futurama on DVD. Very nice.

Quote of the YesterDays: "Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun."
- Ash

Granger was the first to get the character but nobody got the original quote ("I ain't that good").

Quote of the Day: "People said I was dumb, but I proved them."
-?

Pretty much the same excuse for yesterday's lack of postage as Sunday's. There shall be a regular post tonight though as even though Granger is here another night, I've no work so I'll be able to post before she's sleeping on the floor.

Stay tuned!

PS - Quote's still open.

Crazy day at work today. It was extremely busy 90% of the day which meant I hardly got to read any webcomics at all! It's just not fair!!! :P

It did leave me pretty tired out though and the remainder of my motivation for the night was expended on Beyond Good and Evil (getting pretty close to the end now).

Now I'm going to watch some Farscape and then do the sleep thing.

Quote of the YesterDay: "Who betta than Kanyon?"
- Kanyon
Hbaka was able to fill in the blank on this one. Bravo to him.

Another odd Quote of the Day: "Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun."
-?
This quote's pretty damn easy so to get the point you also have to tell me what the line was originally.

Working at a call centre has had some weird side-effects on me. For instance, whenever I pull up to a drive-thru window I have the urge to say "Bell Tech Support, Trevor speaking. How may I help you?". I'm not quite sure why but there's a connection in my mind between answering a call at work and ordering at a drive-thru.

I never feel the urge to answer anything else (including regular phone calls) this way, so there's something specific about drive-thrus. I think it may be the knowing your about to start a dialogue and just waiting for your cue. The cue is different for each but they both have a sound starting without your doing anything cue.

I think it's probably just a matter of time before I fuck up and ask a drive-thru employee how I can help them.

In watching stuff related news I watched a golden episode of MST 3k yesterday. It was an Ed Wood film (if you know who that is, you know the quality of the movie without needing to know anymore). The movie was called "The Sinister Urge" and it was about a smut operation and the police trying to shut it down. There was some great stuff. My favorite scene had to be when the police were explaining to a citizen who thought the police should be focusing on more important matters how seeing and/or being involved in smut leads to all sorts of crimes (up to including murders). The scene were the cops said that people were more adversely affected by (and addicted to) smut than the were with drugs and/or alcohol was pretty sweet too though. Ah, good ol' 50s morality.

Quote of the YesterDay: "Well, there's no problem. If you have a gun, shoot 'em in the head. That's a sure way to kill 'em. If you don't, get yourself a club or a torch. Beat 'em or burn 'em. They go up pretty easy."
- Sherrif from Night of the Living Dead
- Hbaka seems to have known this quote and if he'd named the film and given a vague description of the speaker I probably would have given him the point.

Quote of the Day (today you've just gotta correctly fill in the blank): "Who betta than ________?"
- ?

Obviously the blank had to be there to make the quote somewhat challenging.

Hey, it's my 250th post!!!!

To celebrate I shall show my l33t counting skillz by counting all the way to 250! Exciting, no?

Bet you thought I'd do something to mix that up or make it interesting in someway, didn't you?

Quote of the YesterDay: " This strange mixing of minds may be the greatest single service ever performed for humanity! Let's go, but, inconspicuously, through the window."
-Batman

I love this quote because Batman says it after he and Robin make a big fuck-up when rehydrating the dignitaries. In classic Batman form he writes it off as a good thing but then he suggests they get the fuck out of there before anyone else notices.

Quote of the Day: "Well, there's no problem. If you have a gun, shoot 'em in the head. That's a sure way to kill 'em. If you don't, get yourself a club or a torch. Beat 'em or burn 'em. They go up pretty easy.

Update: Oooh, I just noticed that Futurama: Volume 4 is being released today. Time to complete the set.

There was no postage last night because Granger was crashing at my place (her Baptist thingee didn't start till 1 o'clock today but she got to Moncton yesterday). I figured she probably wouldn't like it too much if I turned on the lights and started blogging away while she was sleeping on the floor.

YesterDay's quote is still open and will be until I post again tonight. Bustin's guess was incorrect so feel free to make your own (or another if you're Bustin).

Yesterday while on a break at work I happened to see a preview for "Open Water", this is the first and only time I saw a preview for it but apparently it's playing now and has something to do with sharks.

I found it highly amusing that one of the quotes they used to play up the movie said something along the lines of "The best shark movie since Jaws". Now Jaws is an excellent movie but the quote isn't saying that the movie is as good as Jaws, just the best shark movie to come out since Jaws. Now can anyone actually name a shark movie other than the first Jaws movie that was actually good? Sure some of them are campy fun but to the best of my knowledge there are no other shark movies that are even 'pretty good' so saying this movie is the best shark movie to come out since Jaws isn't exactly high praise.

Quote of the YesterDay: "Snakes. Nature's quitters".
- Homer

Yume came close on this one as it was Homer who said it but it was actually from the Haloween episode where Homer's horoscope said he would die (and may receive a compliment from an attractive co-worker). I'm surprised nobody picked up on that.
