    Try now. And already losing $100 million so far 

    Haha. I just had to look it up.  Other than seeing a preview for it months ago, I haven't heard shit about it.  At a small budget of $100M, that's quite a feat to fail nowadays but I wouldn't put any cinematic failure past the ability of Peter Jackson.

     

  2. Hyperion...just the first two books. Better suited to an HBO limited series. Scorsese wanted to make a stand alone movie out of the priest’s tale.

    To the White Sea. Book about an American soldier who crashes on the coast of Japan during WWII and has to cross the country to where he can be rescued. Coen brothers were attached years ago but it never moved forward.

  3. My oldest had a concert recital at a church tonight.

     

    My 6 yo: why is there a giant doctor symbol?

    Mrs brown: that’s a cross.

    6 yo: a what?

    Mrs brown: Jesus died on it.

    6 yo: some guy died right there?!? Did he fall off?

     

    A few comments later...

    Mrs brown: this is a church.

    6 yo: a what?

     

    At least she’s a cute little heathen.

    It's really strange, it's pretty dry here once the cold air hits, too.

    I did a chimney of briqs and it opened right up within 10 minutes. Weirdness. There is a small part of the gasket where the lid lining is stuck to the base lining near the hinge but that's it. No way that was holding it together so tightly. 

    What was your last cook? You may have melted the gasket and when you closed it the last time, it sealed together when it cooled.

  5. "Lisa, I saw a woman who looked like you with different hair but now I see you with your same hair and I guess it wasn't you"

    "I don't wish you would die, but.....it would be nice"

    "I'm a materialistic nonsense type of guy"

    That line is from poultrygeist. She was a Median. 

    "Is Greg here today?" - at 3 pm after not seeing Greg the entire day (Jimmy sits next to Greg)

    "I bring bearing gifts"

    "You want one of these nurture valley bars?"

    Did Adam and Eve weave the fig leaves in their pubes or something?

    Becca, you missed a very informital meeting yesterday

    My brother and I were so extoked. 

    I woke up this morning and I thought I was having a heart attack, cause it hurts right here (points). Right around the heart area. 

    I fixed that work order and now it looks like a Paul DeVinci painting. 

    If you're quick and in a hurry fast you should probably not take your time

    You know what word I like? Vulva.

  6. Agreed! We bought an outfit for our grandson for Christmas. The page on Amazon looked good. Then I went to check the tracking and when it would arrive. It's from China. Not just made in China but being shipped direct from China. ETA is by January 17!!!! It is being shipped via "China Post", the equivalent of the USPS. We've bought something else and when (if) it ever arrives I will ship it right back to China and get the refund.  

     

    A lot of the non-brand name clothing is made on demand in a Chinese sweatshop and shipped direct. The clothing manufacturers realized they could cut out the middle man (US stores) by doing this. It takes a month to arrive but it’s the exact item you’d buy here but at less than half the cost.

     

    We’ve bought a ton of kids clothes that have shipped direct from China and the quality has been top notch.

    At the very least, let them make as much money as they can on their name and likeness. Even the ones who never make it in the NFL should be able make money off of their collegiate fame.

    Yep. You don't get shit for playing but if Nike, Oakley, Trojan Magnums wants to sign you to an endorsement deal, go for it.
