Appetizer: Name one thing that made you sad this week.
Let’s just say, I’m likely funeral-bound tomorrow and we’ll leave it at that. Safe trip, Mr. H.
Soup: What was the last object (not person) you took a picture of?
Before we left Canada last weekend I took a photo of the deck stairs my father and I built together. It was nice working with the old man on something after so many years. I don’t think my parents realize how much having this house means to me. The fact that they’re already talking about how much they can sell it for was my first clue.
Salad: Who do you talk to when you need help in making a decision?
I try to make good, quick decisions and then stick to them. I loathe prolonged indecision and I try not be guilty of it myself. Another personality trait which was forged working in student bars. But a good one, as opposed to the penchant for drink and the encyclopedia-esque knowledge of hip-hop lyrics. One quick unrelated thing – watch this. And here’s another bunch of gallery additions.
Main Course: If you were a weather event, what would you be, and why?
I’d be a Willow Wisp. There was a strange cartoon I used to watch when I was a kid about this group of animals that lived in a forest. One of the characters was Willow the Wisp – and I eventually asked someone and figured out what the heck it was supposed to be. It’s like a bog gas pocket that burps up from the ground when it gets cold and many people throughout history have mistaken them for ghosts. And Michael Moore.
Dessert: Suggest a website that you think your readers would enjoy visiting.
I link to interesting sites all the time. As do all “bloggers” – so this may be the most redundant quizzlet question to date. Can’t you ask me more questions about movies, you silly little freak? Sigh… Let’s divert this question to the readers. This should be a trainwreck of inappropriacy if ever there was one.

I hesitate to talk about it for fear I will somehow jinx her health, but it’s the truth. She quietly and bravely dealt with the painful treatment for months, and it’s all just a bad memory [...]...
- Friday’s Quizzlet: There Goes the Scotch Appetizer: What was your favorite cartoon when you were a child? I used to love Saturday mornings and remember that Dungeons and Dragons, The Smurfs, G.I. Joe and a bunch of others were always on my dance card. But the 70’s version of Spider-Man was my very favorite. I still remember every word of the fantastic [...]...

It’s like NetFlix for the geeks who are worse than movie geeks. I’m not ashamed, however. There’s nothing unhealthy about coming home on a chilly fall evening and battling a Rhino from the [...]...

Two things. Safe trip to Mr. H, and well wishes to all the clan is in order. Secondly, when goonblog gets off the ground, I will suggest it to everyone.
We will work on it this weekend.
speaking of weird old cartoons, and interesting links, this site is a goldmine of nostalgia for anyone who watched TV Ontario in the 80s. i’ve linked directly to a couple of my favorites (you may have to copy and paste)…

Holy shit, Dan. I used to watch the bejezus out of both of those. Jeremy!!! I sent them to my sister and we’re having a laugh right now.
Oh my God. I am dying right now. Passe-Partout, The Edison Twins and DR. FUCKING SNUGGLES! Ha ha ha. Thanks again, man. Blast from the past.
i know… when i found that site i almost lost it. and i also realized how much frickin TV ontario i watched when i was a kid (worst example – i actually knew all the words to the theme from dear aunt agnes). so many memories…read all about it, with that freaky duneedon? the math patrol (with “his highness lord minus”)? barbapapa?telefrancais! it’s gold, jerry, gold.
and if they ever come out with ‘jeremy’ on DVD, i’m buying the whole damn set.
That’s wierd… I suddenly began whistling the theme from the green forrest thursday afternoon on the 15th hole of the don valley because of this aggressive bird that seemed to be alerting the entire forrest to my uncontrolled tee shots.
