Seen or read something funny lately? got a clever joke?.....it would be appreciated......:(

Sorry you're feeling low. I probably shouldn't post here since I also feel somewhat low. I'm not sure why, I haven't really felt right since Friday night. I mean, it was a wild night but I'm a little surprised that I still seem to be recovering.

About the best I've got is that my bike brake repair job a couple hours ago went way faster and more smoothly than I'd expected. We'll see what happens when I get it on the road in a couple hours.

But, otherwise, yeah. Nothing, really. I've been down for a couple of days, myself.

The Lookout is a great movie; that made me happy for a while this weekend.

i have a day off...that's good news

sure, he's cute now...but he's going to be the most vicious killer known to man when he grows up

He's going to viciously cuddle his offspring, is what he'll do. (http://animals.timduru.org/dirlist/bear/PolarBears_02a-Mom_N_Baby-Sleeping.jpg)

Quite the buzz on it.....hope I can get over the 3rd Rock relation....;)

I'm so glad I've never seen that.

I've seen three of this guy's movies now, and he's the real deal.

I'm sure,what's funny is that I was surfing the void this weekend and there he was in "Angels from the Outfield",the hype on the new movie made me hover for a minute.....kudos for making the transition from child to career actor,without doubt....

[abcdefz]

"Angels from the Outfield"



(!)


Wow. I haven't looked at his back catalog at all.


Yeah, I don't think he's quite good enough to get me to seek out Angels in the Outfield. :D

[MC Moot]

Just played a hand of "Go Fish"....feeling a little better for it,taking a 4 year old in a game of cards will do that for a guy.....think I'll go back for a round of "Old Maid" and take his last Spiderman sticker.....:D

[abcdefz]

You can use a line from The Lookout:

"What? You want me to let you win?"

[wanton wench]

my pneumonia is gone :D

the sun is out.

its been rumored that i might get a raise.

[MC Moot]

and I turn 18 in exactly 30 days.

ahhhhhh.....

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.

[MC Moot]

my pneumonia is gone :D .

That's very good news,although my understanding is that once you've had one you become more succeptable to them....nice to breathe though,eh?

[abcdefz]

Nice.

Especially congrats on the pneumonia being gone. That shit's miserable.

That's true. I used to get walking pneumonia every year for three to four months at a pop. Awful stuff.

i dont think i would live through 3 or 4 months of pneumonia. it was so horrible. so you say "used to" does that mean you dont get it every year now? if so, why? what have you done to prevent it? i'm curious. this is my second time in 3 years so i'm a lil concerned.

[p-branez]

i finished with classes today.
getting drunk asap.

thanks everyone!

hey, guess what? made it through to the interview stage! :) just found out now. agh, so excited! the weekend i wrote the script report (this was the first selection stage - write a script report on one of their projects) was a pretty shatty weekend in all, and i thought i was too emotionally zoinked to do it at one stage but hey, turns out it worked!

i think i will bury the news in here and not make a dedicated "OMG WORKING TITLE FILMS OMG MOVING TO LONDON OMG BECOMING A FILM PRODUCER ONE DAY" thread until/if i get to the final interview stage. which would be after this. so, yeah!

london. next thursday. me, being interviewed. oh shit, i better find something smart to wear! i think i'm going to use "well, a-z said that this film was..." as an answer for something.
