My blogs are boring??????

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

um... well I just will have to fix that...

YAY!!! for the Matrix!!!

saw the freakin' 6am showing - now how about that?

alright so maybe that's just stupid, but premieres are fun!

And ok so it got butchered by some critics but I really liked that movie... And I learned 2 things in the process too!

1) It is not a good thing if you enter the theater when it's dark outside and leave it when it's light.

2) I am definitely glad they made the whole trilogy

why am I glad? It's simple:

- we would have never known how the story ended, since the first one didn't conclude it
- if you watch the second 2 movies within 12 hours of each other (highly recommended) you realize that when you watch them together, they make one really awesome movie.

so sure there were some cheesy points, but on the whole fabulous.

Ok so I will have my 3rd article this week in the daily tomorrow, and I must tell you - its a snoozer. Seriously seriously boring. Its all about salmon and now I love salmon but if you hold a 4 hour conference on the evolution of salmon and then expect me to make that interesting, that's pretty impossible. So naturally to amuse ourselves, my editor and I placed a couple of fish puns within the story.

This whole boring story thing has me thinking. And since my blogs are apparently boring too, I decided to share my thoughts with you all.

Top Ten Story Ideas for the Daily

10) why the Matrix is sooo cool
9) has anyone ever found out how many licks it takes to get to the center of the tootsie pop? An analytical analysis.
8) Gorillas and handcuffs - where did this connection begin?
7) the evolution of salmon

haha just messin with ya

7) the necessity of slacking off
6) Killer squirrels created in UW lab - fact or fiction?
5) Paranoid schizophrenia - the symptoms
4) Hypochondria - the symptoms
3) All you ever need to know about plucking ducks
2) 6am premiers - when good ideas go bad
1) I have a blender

Alright I have something to confess... I recently became engaged... to this guy named Joe. Now I know some people have issues with his current career of shoplifting minimarts. And I am sure that you don't approve of the fact that he has another wife and kids, but he said that he would leave them for me. And of course there is the alcoholism and drug abuse... but we are in love! How can that be wrong?

An ode to tagboards

How you affect me
How you choose to insult me
To call my blog boring
And quote the Daily

Sure there are moments
Oh the laughter you cause
And then there are times
when the language makes me pause

Oh if bad words were a crime
And I had the authority
To remove all those words
and replace them with a "beep"

Oh wait never you mind
I do have that power
If only I had thought of it
and didn't waste that hour

Of course then again I hit
My head once more last night
My car door shut on it
And so came my luckless plight

But I pause once again
For I truly do believe
In the first amendment
And for all speech to be free

So insult me all you want
Use the language that will scare
children and conservatives
I advise you to beware

So here is to tagboards
A fine thing they are
Now I must run off with Joe
Who I met at a local bar



And I am done.
