My mother didn’t birth no fool

Men named “John” are not prone in movies to do stupid things, unlike our counterparts doomed to childishness when being named “Johnny”.  The whole matter of the foolish additives to my most noble of monikers makes me want to seek audience of The Queen…or something…had to have come from her Isle.  Can’t imagine the Germans having anything to do with it.

Us ‘Johns’ are known worldwide.  Try translating “Johnny” in any language…doubtful there’s a single one to do it justice compared to ‘ours’.

And we aren’t dumb enough to look twice at red doors on white backgrounds…let alone enter them…without pushing someone else to go first and get eaten by the bogeyman.

Because in the real world, THAT’S what REAL JOHN’s do!

Strange…

Sleepy Hollow from Redbox seems to have some odd copy protection.  While it plays normally in DVD players in the home, it comes up with a ‘Region’ error in Windows 7 media player.

Haven’t seen this before since I usually like to ‘try’ and ‘backup’ things.  Below is the picture quality of ‘something’ from a handheld’s perspective.  (Now to keep from jailbreaking the thing, lol)

Is that a carrot in your pocket?

With the heat index beyond 100F lately, my younger daughter has been very obnoxious. Our complex has multiple pools, she ‘must’ go to a certain one due to temperature.

She also ‘had’ to go shopping for carrots, I ended up getting a 5LB bag to ensure I’d have some for an upcoming meal for ourselves. Myself, I only had my camera for taking stills, it’s not as good as full digital camcorders…I’ve never done digital camcorder reviews here, so I’ve never had the need to invest in one for blogging.

Eventually I might get a handheld videocamera, but for now I’m working on my photography.

I’m also working on my Vulcan Neck Pinch, the classic one. Since it’d be illegal on humans and I’d have to register my hands as a weapon, I figure if nobody reports me to PETA, I’m safe here.

Bumps in the road

Off of one of DEVO’s pieces of artwork…somewhere.  I found it rather inspiring.

Why…and how…do architects use ‘French Curves’?  Who decides when and at what angle to make a swoop?  Are they shaped sexually?  And if a woman’s shorter, does it change the swish and flick?

I haven’t ridden a bicycle in years.  A motorcycle less.  No strike that, I did this decade…I forgot those 20 mile trips to work…and twenty mile trips back…through foothills.

Flat areas with lots of buses is nicer.  Except when it’s hot…or it’s cold…or it’s raining cats and dogs.

I hate fleas.  And ticks.  And puppy dog tails without the puppies.  They rank right up there with spam commentors trying to anchor URLs…that don’t even exist!

What’s up with that…people that don’t believe in themselves…that will only follow through if they can get so many people to let their spam through?
