i know this doesnt open for a few more weeks, but i feel safe saying, now, that this will be, indisputably, the greatest single achievement in the history of not only cinema, but of the history of storytelling! (much like don knotts is, demonstrably, the greatest actor in the history of performance)
i am committed to this, and will live the rest of my life accordingly, and will be willing to defend, with violence, if anyone dares disagree with me.

Jackson and snakes! ;D not only that, but they are on a plane! is genius too strong a woerd? no...nno i dont think so. if anything, genius is not specific enough. sure, einstein invented the theory of relativity, but could he have thought up something as glorious as snakes on a plane? no. issac newton? gravity? nothing compared to snakes, defying gravity...in a plane, with samuel l jacksin, no less. stephen hawking? pythagorous (sp)? plato? you take who you want. im taking the guy who put snakes on a plane! snakes on a plane...better than genius...a new tagline, perhaps? |

Well, I got my Snakes on a Plane T-shirt today! It has the logo with the snakes wrapped around a silver airplane. It was between that and one with Samuel L. Jackson's emortal line: "There are mothaf**kin' snakes on this mothaf**kin' plane!" A big picture of Samuel L. Jackson's head covering the f**k parts of the saying. ;D It was a tough choice, but I didn't think I could wear the f**k shirt to church.  |

wow...id like to know what bad kind of bad arbor day experience could have caused that!
i still stand by easter..hey, lets celebrate the resurrection of God on earth by...how about a nice feast? or maybe a spring correlation to Christmas, where we all gather as families and rejoice in the coming Spring as it relates to the religious thing, a new beginning and what not?
no, i have a better idea...
lets dress up in ridiculous pastel colors and color a bunch of hard boiled eggs...while there may be more foul food substances than the egg, i still find it a nasty customer. a shell which contains a sticky, runny goop. we can take care of that, however, by boiling it, making it into a slippery, rubbery goop.we then take our rubbery goop shells and do what? why, color them, of course. this is just the preparation. on the appropriate day, we will put on our most uncomfortable clothes (in my childhood, this was compounded by the fact that they were polyester. i hate polyester.) and hunt for the eggs, which are ostensibly hidden by...a giant rabbit....yes.
at our house, the rabbit left us candy, too. mostly jelly beans, but more on that in a second......i get the feeling that most peoples experiences were different from mine, but for us, we would get this bizarre candy, only to then be death marched off to 81/2 - 9 hours of church, broken only by a 1 1/2 hr break to choke down a bun ch of arid, freeze dried cafetreria food from mcl. we get home @ 12:30, knowing the next day is a school day, and we are assured of being verily exhausted b/c we'll get someting like 5 hours of sleep...and our candy is sitting there, mocking us...by the time we get to it the next day, much of it is melted masking the foil chocolate eggs nearly impossible to unwrap...
of course, we didnt really celebrate arbor day. i dont even know what day its on...or even what season it falls in...i do have to say, though...a chocolate tree would be easier to eat, guil]t wise, than a cute chocolate rabbit
yeah. i hate easter.

anothr day that kind of leaves me empty is flag day...are we just celebrating the us flag, or all flags in general? if it is just the US flag, then is it really a celebration of the flag, or a celebration of the country? if its the foemer, is it a celebration of the idea of a flag, as a kind of piece f cloth we hang on a pole to indicate something? if so, is that really that great an idea that we need to celebrate it so?
i dont hate it, really, i just dot see the big deal.
and then there's valentines day...i have been told, and i completely believe, that this one is invented, by hallmark, to sell cards. i can buy that. its really just a hassle...you feel obliged to buy something if you are in a relationship, and you feel lonely and depressed if you are not. the only people who make out well are the ones selling the stuff to the people who feel obliged to buy.
and groundhog day...all you are really celebrating is whether it s cloudy or not.
yeah, there are plenty of crappy 'holidays', although some of these arent really holidays, in the strictest sense.
