Santa came early

and he took a dump.We're on the Naughty List.

Grettings from Philly, Pa. Actually the smelly present by the tree is from my brother's new pup "Stitch". He's 50% pug, 50% Jack Russell terrier, 100% Speedy Gonzalez.
Poor Stich must have gotten confused by the Christmas tree and thought it was just as good as the ones outside.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year

Wildcards?

Wow. I wrote them off two weeks ago but here they are.

Goodbye Peter

Where's Rostov?

Well I finally got around to watching this fine piece of good, aged Norris cheese. Sorry about keeping this for so long, Devo.
I'll return this to you soon [ along with 'Boat Trip' --another fantastic piece of garbage]

The film is pretty easy to follow...I guess... since I was watching this during work hours. Basically I looked up every five minutes just in time to see Chuck use a grenade or roundhouse kick somebody. But that's all good.
King of movie baddies, Richard Lynch, decides that he and his merry band of evil international scum are going invade U.S.A.--starting with Florida. Unfortunately Rostav [Lynch] has Post Traumatic Norris Syndrome because he tangoed with ex-CIA agent Norris before. So Rostav wants to kill Florida resident Chuck before he can be satisfied with successfully invading U.S.A.
Which to me says bad management right there. Can't get the job done if you've got issues. "Norris issues"
But nobody on his team complains , and soon they blow up a nice wholesome [heavily populated] neighborhood. [pic below]






<--Next is the big shootout in a great [filled with disposable people] Mall, which I loved.




This is where Chuck saves a bunch of annoying school kids on a bus.These kids were all singing "Row Row Row You're Boat". What? It takes place in 1985! Back then I was riding school buses and we were singing Quiet Riot songs. Stupid lame wholesome kids. So anyway, the terrorist stuck the bomb to the side of the bus . Chuck uses an ol' Bugs Bunny "switcheroo " trick. He quickly yanks it off and drops it into their car. KA-BOOM! That's all folks.

Finally, our armed forces start fighting back and this is where the budget went. But we really can't win until Chuck kills Rostov. And he did.He blew him up real good.












I just like to mention that one of my favorite things in the movie is the pet armadillo that Chuck has. He must have picked it up before Fla. Because I don't think armadillos are indigenous to Fla. But that little sucker is cute --and they are from the sloth family not possum. I want one.

classic SCTV

One of my favorites. The idea of Walter Cronkite doing Dialing for Dollars is a great idea. Rick Moranis is the psycho caller. I miss Moranis. He needs to get back into films.
