Spider-Man movie news
Also from Atomic Comics' newsletter:
"Sony execs are impressed by the early cuts of “Spider-Man 3.” So impressed, in fact, that they are already talking to David Koepp, who wrote the first movie as well as the upcoming fourth installment of the Indiana Jones series, about scripting “Spider-Man 4.” It’s already been rumored that a fourth Spider-Man would feature Mysterio, likely played by Bruce Campbell, but Dylan Baker, who’s played Dr. Curt Conners in the first three movies, has indicated director Sam Raimi has plans for Dr. Conners to finally make his big turn into Lizard."

Again with the quizzes
Nice, he has always been my favorite.
You Are Cyclops |
Dedicated and responsible, you will always remain loyal to your cause. You are a commanding leader - after all, you can kill someone just by looking at them. Power: force beams from your eyes |

why am I still doing this?
I promise I am also getting a lot of work done. hehe
You Are Pop Art |
When it comes to art, you're definitely not a snob. You can appreciate the mainstream aspects of culture, even if you need to twist them a bit to make them your own. Whether you're into comics, retro pinups, or bold colors, you embrace what's eye catching and simple. As far as most other art goes, you consider it a little too elitist and high brow for your tastes! |
hahahahahahaha
ok again no shocker here. also i need to stop this but it is too addictive -DAMN YOU, INTERNETS!
Your Job Dissatisfaction Level is 87% |
Your job is a disaster - it's surprising you've lasted this long. You need to quit if you can, even if you don't have another job lined up. As far as stressful work situations go, yours is off the scale brutal. Almost any job would be better than what you've got! |
yeah, I wish!
Ok I need to stop with the quizzes but this one was too cool not to post haha
You Are Most Like John F. Kennedy |
You live a fairy tale life that most people envy. And while you may have a few dark secrets, few people know them. |
I doubt that this will surprise any of you...
So I found myself sucked in to a bunch of those addictive and corny online quizzes but I thought this one was amusing/true:
You Are 12% Capitalist, 88% Socialist |
You see a lot of injustice in the world, and you'd like to see it fixed. As far as you're concerned, all the wrong people have the power. You're strongly in favor of the redistribution of wealth - and more protection for the average person. |

I am pretty sure that our Vice President is a sociopath
Clearly the man has nothing but contempt for the vast majority of life on our planet (and one would assume any as yet to be discovered life off-world) and believes that it is his right to impose his will on anyone he chooses.
I present Exhibit A, Cheney's appearance on CNN on Wednesday:
Winders and I are convinced that at some point he is going to go all Westworld and reveal his true self:

Speaking of assholes...
So some asshat in the GA state house is putting forward a bill to make it so that companies (and the state) don't offer health insurance to workers but instead encourage individuals to buy their own. The assumption being that everyone will get paid more since the company won't be paying the insurance (yeah right!) and he used the old chestnut that "individuals and their doctors should make health decisions, not insurance companies and the government" (which might be true if I actually could see my doctor for more than 5 minutes at a time and if the insurance companies stopped behaving like money crazed scam artists) and that the invisible hand of the market (presumably the same hand that has been sending natural gas prices through the roof since deregulation) will surely drive the price of insurance down because consumers will be free to shop around.
He said this was a premptive move because the country seems to be moving to the left (or at least the middle) and he wants to make sure we don't become like those crazies in Taxachusettes and California and try to offer universal health care in the state. Criminy! The worst part is that it looks like it has a chance at passing.

Open letter to a President. RE:State of the Union
umm... seriously? That is the best you could come up with George?
You want to tax me because I have health insurance and increase the size of the army?
Seriously?!?
I am not even going to talk about your oil addiction mention, see I remember that gem from last year and we all know how hard you worked on it in the past 12 months.
Oh, by the way you might want to watch for that Jim Webb guy - you know the one who delivered the Democratic response? No? You weren't watching? Well I am sure Karl can find you a tape and I suggest you watch it because Webb is pissed and it sounds like he is looking to take you to the Thunderdome. Oh, you are Rovey aren't really talking so much anymore? Fine, I'll post it here.
Come on 2008, come on Obama [or Edwards (or both of you)].

THE ACTION 5 (and a thousand pardons)
I have been a negligent blogger lately and to my four readers I humbly apologize. I hate checking in with blogs that I read only to find that the asshat in charge has wandered away from the blogosphere in a lazy haze. So, I beg forgiveness and promise to work harder at postin weird videos, random nerdy pictures, comic book news and pissed off political rants. Also if I get really inspired I will post some photos of my trip home to DC to visit the fam.
Now without further adeu I give you...

Darius Goes West
Last Friday I had the pleasure of seeing the premier of Darius Goes West at the Morton Theater and I have to say I was blown away. Considering how many ways one can fuck up a creative project I was floored by what a truly great job the group of young first time filmmakers did. I will write more about it later but until then click HERE to read more about the film and it's star Darius Weems.

Happy (late) New Year
A certain little Lambo reminded me that I haven't blogged in a while so here we are. I want to say that I have been too busy to blog but that is probably not true. I just haven't had a whole lot to say or at least I haven't taken the time to focus my thoughts into posts consisting of linked videos, random pictures of cute animals, comic book news or political rants.
Anyway, I am back and bringing the party with this totally bitchin' gif that I found on a random Google Image search.
