Part II: What ya gonna do?

Daytime TV does suck. Big time. I've noticed that quiz shows seem to be getting dumber and dumber. How is this a hard question: "How many children are there in four sets of triplets?"

That's a real noggin-scratcher.

Today was completely unproductive. I have gotten nothing done. I thive for the stress caused by the "crunch" that only procrastination can bring. Either that, or I'm a complete idiot. Take your pick.

I watched A Bridge to Far this afternoon, it was a part of the 2 DVD pack I bought this weekend(the other one is Paths to Glory by Stanley Kubrick). I started thinking about that whole greatest generation thing, and about something Kurt Vonnegut wrote(and I'm going to paraphrase it, I'm too lazy to look it up): Movies about WWII will always be made, because the Nazi German uniforms were so fashionable. It's kinda true, if you think about it. They do look like some serious badasses. Which brings me to my favorite quote about Hitler from the movie Tao of Steve: "Hitler did a lot of things, but don't you wish he would have stayed at home and smoked pot?" I guess you really have to see the movie(for the context) to get the whole quote. It's not the greatest movie ever made(the Hitler quote is pretty much the highlight), but if you can sit through it, look for that quote.

Tomorrow, I'm going to try to not use any parenthetical notations(like this one) in my blog. We'll see who rusts first!

Ok. I've got to get something worthwhile done today, or I'm going to get really pissed at myself. At least do some dishes, or clean the cat box, right? Something small and non-back-hurting? We'll see.

Did I mention that my little brother is getting married? How cool is that?

Like I said, a senile hiccup. I am really looking forward to it, though.

Back to work!
