SEWER PARTY
ok, now that that advertisment is out of the way (and really, more than an ad, it's a direct command from whatever diety you decide to worship. that's right, the ancient sumerian god of rain wants you to get jiggy with it at my place on saturday. and if you think you're too old to come to the party, then, my friend, i hope you are know what you're really doing), let's talk about some random stuff.
yesterday, i mentioned the movie driven. now the question i propose is this: after getting an oscar for rocky, this is what sylvester stallone's career is reduced to? i'll give him deathrace 2000, demolition man and judge dredd. but this? this is what the plucky underdog rocky and the most upright citizen ever--rambo--is reduced to? i've lost my innocence.
i've spent almost 4 years in new england. and in all this time, i am still surprised by the number of people in new england that don't like seafood. back in minnesota, where we just have freshwater fish and nothing like what is available out here, people love fish and fish type products. but here, i'm amazed by how many new englanders don't like scallops (which, when wrapped in bacon, are near orgasmic), lobster or shrimp. of course, i am also amazed by how many people don't like their vegetables. i mean, i don't claim to have a very healthy diet, but i love my veggies. give me some nice fresh greens, oranges, reds, whatever the fuck color they are genetically modifying food to these days, and i'm a happy man. i know, i know. taste is subjective and some people don't like some stuff as the other person. but wouldn't liking more kinds of foods be an evolutionary advantage? i'm not picky and i like it all. i'll have a much easier time foraging for caloric intake that satisfies me. score one for me!
ok, time to geek out to star wars II: attack of the clones
