Harry Link Dump Pottrer and the Too Much TV

Haha Hitler eating watermelon. Oh internets, you are so clever!

Bush pardons Leonard Peltier! Well, not really, but Reason tricked the shit out of me anyway, sneaky bastards. This is the fellow I voted for President in 2004. He has been wrongfully arrested in federal prison for over 30 years with no chance of parole or anything. The least that stupid fuck Bush could do is pardon him. Bastards.

Just yesterday I caught a trailer for a movie that captured my bloodshot eyes - 'Special' - the trailer is available here. This is the kind of movie I think I could adore; except, as has been pointed out in the POETV forums, we know know the beginning, middle, and end of the movie already. Someone's review described it as 'donnie darko meets superman' - I can bite into that.

A Real Cunt,No (I.E. Anne Coulter) finally is forced to shut up. Haha, stupid, worthless woman. Hope you enjoy having your mouth closed for once.

Giant trained rats will soon take care of all our troubles. I don't know about you guys, but I approve of our furry new overlords. Oh wait, it's just to have them get blown up on land mines? And sniff out cases of TB? Well shit, count me in!

True Blood had it's series finale last night. Since it just got added to the dictionary, I'll say 'meh'. It was OK. That's all I'll say. For an HBO show, it really lacks everything I want to see. Yeah, there is blood, but not HBO blood and violence. Yeah, there is sex, but not HBO sex. And acting? C'mon, the only one worth a damn on that show is the guy who played E.B. Farnum on Deadwood. (Which I will finish tonight. After clockwork..damn, another excellent show that could have gone on and on.) Everyone on the show is a whiney bitch. And when they introduce new charactors, they are all whiney bitches. (I.E. New vampire chick? 'Look at me, I'm suddenly a bitchy whine-box!' Really? C'mon!) So, if you want to see a semi-decent vampire show not aimed at pre-teens (I'm looking at you, Twilight!) check it out - the whole season is available on the tubes in different places. Don't expect decent HBO quality or you will be disappointed; but if you want something that is at least quasi-entetaining with a cajon feel and really, one of the best intros to a show since Dexter, check out True Blood. Otherwise, save your time for watching re-runs of Who's the Boss.

Speaking of TV shows, I watched the first episode of Firefly last night. Again, 'meh'. I'm no fan of Joss Whedon, but I want to give this show a chance, since I do love Sci-Fi and I hear it's brilliant. It's gonna be hard to upset Battlestar Galactica as 'Best Sci-Fi Show Since DS9' but...I'm open.

Fry-Day

So this weekend is Town Hall for Flipside - come out and see themes and people and shit. I'll be there, Brother Hole will be there, all your friends and enemies and others will be there too. With booze. Oh yeah, it's at the warehouse, starting at 1:23 on Saturnday. Be there, or be square!

Then after that is Fun Fun Fun Fest, with the Dead Milkmen! Seriously. Totally can't wait to see my favorite band play live for the first time. Excitement! Pleasure! Awesome!

After that there is a party. Somewhere. There must be! Don't you wish you lived in Austin?

Sonic Hedgehog gene controls brain development. (I can't make this shit up.)

True Blood has started to become watchable and enjoyable. (It only took 8-9 episodes)

P.S. This week and most of next week I'm using most my free work time to finish my studying for my broker's license. So after then I'll have better posts. Maybe.
