achhooooooooooooooooo.....oooooo

i have had what seems like 3 weeks of heavy allergies .. sneezing runny nose ... needless to say i am extra sexy lately ohhyeah baby

..... speakin of babies!!
as you may know my wife is prego... thus babies.... i had a realization the other day... when my baby is old enough to get into music my fave bands will not be around... bands like metallica who were actually around before I was born, will surly be gone, though hopefully not forgotten. hopefully they will be able to survive the test of time, but what of less popular/famous bands, like say the offspring, awesome band and yes they have been around for a good long while... but will they stay around or am i going to have to introduce my child to them with outdated cd's!! they will think i am crazy? or will they? i mean lots of kids are into rush and led zeppelin and the Beatles still. why not the offspring in 16 years? this is of serious concern to me... i am strange :)


now for a review of last weeks comics

"red" hulk 14: still have no idea who he is.... strating to not care

Teen Titans 74: WHY do they always kill off the ones i like.... first of they killed superboy, over at marvel they killed Icarus, now kid devil all my second (possably third) tier characters are falling to the waist side... good thing they brought superboy back... lesions my pain

flash rebirth 4: lot of info in one issue, i am totally going to have to reread this whole series a couple times once it is done, its beautiful though, you can love it just for the art mmm purdy

Batman the widening gyre 1: kevin smith returns to batman whooot..... since when does poison ivy want to bone batman....love the idea of ivy using pot plants to try and make batman high... classic smith humour all the way through, good story telling much better than Batman: Cacophony, which i just couldn't get into even though i liked onomatopoeia as a villain and apparently only smith is aloud to use him. so a good issue to start off his and walts second series.


thats all i got for now.... need to have a funny blog soon or i may loose Dave as a fan ;)

the never ending battle, for reason

so i am watching the daily show with Jon Stewart, and he is ripping apart fox news for the way they cover American citizens protesting government policy, when Bush was in power the people protesting were "loons" but the ones protesting Obama are great American's. (by the way my spell check doesn't recognize Obama, it wants to correct it to Obadiah)

but to me it seems that Jon is fighting up stream, he spent the entire first part of his show piece by piece taking apart there attempts at logic and showing exactly how they are now everything they once condemned , but the problem is people to the far side of ANY political view. if it be left or right, are so warped up in there own BS that logic cannot get past it.

but keep fighting the good fight jon, we are here for you!!




i have been planing to review some comics on this blog but by the time i get time to do it i am usaly a week behind on the comics i want to review, so even though i don't have time, i want to do some quick reviews. (some may be from last week and some from this)

Batgirl #1

good intro to the new (ongoing?) series, like how you don't have to wait 14+ issues to find out who new batgirl is *coughrulkcough* ended on a good clifhanger and i hope they focus on what the hell happened to cassandra cain she is one of my fave characters and they totaly have been under using her in the last several years

Blackest night: superman #1

liked it better than the batman one loved the showing of mixed emotions, which has been lacking in other blackest night series', i was wondering if it was possable to be more than one at a time. and it semed much more emotionaly drivin than the batman one.

Ultimate avengers #1

interesting, once again find out who red skull is (kinda) in the first issue, but the whole issue is one fight scene and not much depth

Ultimate spiderman #1 (last #1 i swear)

much more full and rounded story than avengers, interesting twists, cliffhangers and peter working at a fast food restaurant. we even get to see a story that could of came straight off notalwaysright.com classic parker

Invincible #65

nice warping up to past events, setting up next storylines, and character developments, seriously still in this transitional issue probably the best superhero comic in print. but i still have no idea why they bothered to increass Atom Eve's boob size... seemed out of character to me.

there you have it friends and random people who are fallowing my blog, a good decient update, i really need to do this more.

why is there a kitten in this couch

lots of fun stuff.... one had an ultrasound on friday... my baby (who is still to young to identify the sex) moves ALOT but seems to be healthy and photogenic)... it was very surreal

also on the weekend i got blinds (FINALLY) for my living room and bedroom... time to take down the garbage bag that is on my windows.

and now for the strange story

yesterday at work, we picked up a couch from a customer at around 3:30... this person has a house full of children and pets, apparently so many it makes it hard to keep an eye on constantly.
aprox 3 hours latter i receive this call.

customer: "hi, umm this may sound really strange but.... do you have my kitten?"

me: ".... WHAT?"

C: "yeah.. uh when you picked up my couch today, well afterward i couldn't find my kitten. so we think it may have gotten in to the couch."

at this point i am freakin out becasue we didn't exactly handle that couch with kid gloves and we left it in the truck from when we picked it up to that point, and it was HOT out.

m: "uh ok hang on let me go check...."

i run out to the truck and open the back, freakin out because i do not want to find a dead cat in my truck.....

i get on the truck and lift up a pillow and looking up at me is a scared lil kittie.

the kittie was totaly fine and friskey.

m: "yeah i have your kittie he seems to be ok"

c: "oh thanks we will come get it now"

the next half an hour was spent me trying to keep the cat in the box and getting it to drink watter... that damn cat would not stay in the box... kept trying to jump around

all this while trying to close the store and take payments... but i managed they got there cat and all was well.

feel like batman... minus the OCD

so i work in a not-so-nice part of town, and we often get the pleasure of watching some interesting things, hookers being the most common and entertaining. Normally we just watch them from afar and giggle at them when they get picked up. but this particular hooker crossed the line and came up to our store and asked our customers to *insert dirty stuff here*

lucky the customer was in good humor and just laughed it off but we can't have hookers taking our customers money so they can't pay us!!

she ended up getting into a minivan... who knows why... but then in about 20 min she was back.. strange i know.

i should also say that this lady of the night, has been "hitchhiking" out side our store every day for almost a week.

so this time she was across the street when a police car happened to be cutting through our parking lot so i ran up and told them that she had been approaching our customers, and off they went.

they caught up to her a little down the street, but luckly still with in view (hehehe) they talked to her for a while, and eventually they put her in the back of the car and drove off... i do kinda feel bad for ruining her working day, but at the same time i feel like i faught crime :D.


on the note of fighting crime, watchmen comes out on DVD today..... i hate being poor i want to watch it right now!!!!!!! whats even worse is that with this DVD i think i wouldn't be happy with the single disk edition, so that jumps the price up to 28 + tax LAME

ONTOP of that the Green Lantern Animated movie comes out NEXT week, and i need to get that so i can force my wife to watch it so maybe i can FINALY get her to see how AWESOME he is.... i seem to be CAPSING alot of words in this PARAGRAPH... hehe


so to sum up... if you have hookers giving you trouble give me a call..... and pay me so i can buy movies (there tied it all togeather)

not trying out for the pin pals

turns out i suck at bowling, i thought wii bowling was suppose to prepare me for the real world.. technically i won the first game (and by a large margin) but i only got 124... second game i lost by 1 pin i had 97 lame eh well i better stick to ..... uhh what ever it is i am good at..... i am sure i will think of something.

side note.... i actually have followers .... people i don't know even, so i am going to say thank you to you people....if you actually do read this blog feel free to comment and tell me who you are i am always up for making new friends :D

also bowling makes your muscles hurt.... stupid physical activity i might have to do more of it....someday

Harry potter and the half drunk chick

The wife and I went to see the good old potter boy on Wednesday, that's right opening night were that damn crazy!!! well last movie we actually went to the midnight showing so i guess not as crazy.

The movie was good, the book of this movie is probably the thickest book so unfortunately a lot got left on the editing floor, like potter getting kicked off the Quidditch team, Ron's cooler older brother being engaged to that chick from the other movie/book blah blah blah a lot of interesting stuff that just would not fit. it sucks but it has to be done. one thing i didn't like that they changed was harry and ginny getting together, they still kinda do, but it was done much better in the book.

The special effects were great the movie was funny and emotional at all the right parts, all in all good times.

what was not good times was the annoying trio of girls in front of us who would not shut the F*CK UP they were giggly and asking questions and one was checking her damn cell phone every 3 min, when did people get so rude? they were asked to be quiet by several different people and i almost punched them in the face..... i would of been given a medal i know it.





on a completely separate note, Blackest night started this week, Yet another cross company story from DC comics, don't get me wrong i am looking forward to this way more than i was over final crisis, but i would prefer if they did it more in the vain of Senestro corp war, were they kept the most of it contained to Green lantern and Green lantern Corps, with a couple of 1 shots here and there. this story has green lantern, green lantern corps, blackest night, blackest night, tails of the corps, a series of titles that run for 3 issues (blackest knight: superman, batman, teen titans etc) as well as having references in all dc books, for example: this weeks Titans featured a banner on the cover (a cover that has nothing to do with the internal story by the way) addressing it as a prelude to blackest night, and the story had 2 panels that reference the on coming story.

all this said, i am still excited for it!!!!!

Beware my power, or not

so they finally cast the lead role for green lantern and the role goes too *drum roll*

Ryan Reynolds

hmmm

ok I love Ryan Reynolds and he totally has the right look for Hal and i do like that he is a comic fan because you know he will want to keep it close to source BUT Ryan always plays the same character and i can't think of a serious role that he has had that makes me think he can pull it off. when i heard christian bale was playing batman i thought back to American psycho and i went "yeah he can do it"
i am a HUGE Green Lantern fan (i have the logo tattooed on my finger) so i need this movie to be good for me to be able to continue living my life a happy man.

he does get extra points for being Canadian too :D
