I finished the rest of season 2 and the Children Of Men series for Torchwood. The latter was quite impressive, as it seemed to forget about being campy and just told a nice, depressing story. RIP,

I caught the first few episodes, but couldn't really get into it. Oddly enough, I'm watching a show that's even less impressive: Torchwood. Think the X-Files meets Angel, with a bit of homosexuality thrown in. I'm a quarter of the way through season two, and while it's watchable, it's not anything that you haven't seen already. I loved Torchwood, the series 2 finale is pretty shocking, and the recent Children of Earth miniseries is pretty ballsy. I have to admit that the second half of season two is picking up quite nicely. death and rebirth made for some pretty interesting teevee. There's a fair bit of camp, and the women are a bit dodgy (is it just me or is Gwen totally unattractive?), but it hasn't been horrible. It's just that it seems like the whole premise of the show is based on bits from other shows.

And the Cubs squeak into first place in their division today. I must remember this moment, in case doesn't last.

Let's see, today was the first Friday in ten or so odd years (barring holidays and whatnot) that I didn't have to make a mortgage payment. It's quite nice. And I started holidays less than two hours ago. I'm not going anywhere, I'm just gonna be lazy, maybe have some non-tobacco cigarettes and play video games. That's not till Thursday, though, the missus is leaving town for a week then. Does Nihilus remind anyone else of Chris the Jedi Killer?

I Go Blind - Hootie and The Blowfish.

Step Brothers. For probably the fifth or sixth time. It's just too dumb to not get caught into it, I guess.

Watch Wonder Woman as well, Aristes. It's a good waste of seventy minutes or so. I thought it was pretty well done.

How did you see it? Its not out until the 28th I'm not supposed to say, Oerwinde. It violates forum rules.

Green Lantern : First Flight was pretty good, too. It moves pretty quick, I'll be rewatching it soon.

I just finished watching the animated Wonder Woman movie that came out a few months ago. It was quite impressive. I'd have to say it fares much better than its Marvel counterparts.

Is that her kid Kor? One of 'em, yep. How many does she have? A whole school bus full. And we're not giving them back!

Blindness. Um, everyone goes blind, then it switches to a little Lord Of The Flies for a while. Kind of a 'meh' movie, although it did have some potential.

I'm still boxing with Fight Night Round 4. I'm finally in the top six of my weight class, and after some pretty rough matches against the middle of the top ten and pretty much all of the boxers ranked up to twenty, I've scored consecutive early knockouts of the fourth and third ranked boxers. I'm about to challenge to number one contender, then hopefully get a shot at one of the three middleweight titles. Or I could get knocked out again.

Is your daughter partially or completely cutting off your air supply in that pic?

Is that her kid Kor? One of 'em, yep.

Yep, she looks just about anime-ish.

a picture from this weekend Edit: and yeah, my fiancee is quite hot.

December is rat's ass nasty cold in Canada. Here's a pic of the ring!

Thanks guys. I honestly can't remember the last time I've been this happy. We fight from time to time, but I really can't think of anyone else I'd like to spend the rest of my life making up with. We haven't set a date yet, but we've discussed waiting two or so years to build up a little bit of equity so that the monthly bills don't smother us. That means we'll probably be married in December.

I'm totally messing with you, Oerwinde. I'm getting married! The preceding story was entirely true, except for the temper tantrum. And the bit where she shot me down.

She had a good idea what was gonna happen, and decided to shoot me down in front of both our immediate families, plus the parents of my brothers' wife. I should have known. When I went to cook my first hotdog of the night over the fire pit, I noticed that nobody brought any 'real' hotdogs. And by 'real' hotdogs I mean just a plain old regular hotdog. Somebody brought some interesting weiners that contained onion and cheese. Another person brought some smokies. There was a package of all beef ones as well. Even garlic sausage was on the meat plate. But was there any good old fashioned newspaper and weiner flavoured hotdogs? **** no. Mom had barely enough time to walk the forty feet to the house to appease my temper tantrum, and sure enough it's starting to rain a little. There was a 90% chance of showers forecasted for the day, yet all morning and afternoon it was incredibly hot and sunny. Not like, Texas hot or anything like that, but hot nonethless. For northern Canada. But as soon as I saw the sky out west over my parents acerage I figured it wasn't gonna be sunny no more. And did I mention that I had killed a spider that dared enter the sacred circle of hand laid bricks at my dads firepit? Not twenty minutes earlier?

I don't think either set of parents would have appreciated that, Wals. But lol, nonetheless.

Wish me luck tonight, you bastards.

That and the opening scene with the military experiments were the funniest parts of the movie.
