FOX Can Suck My Linus!

Well it’s official, I’m going to hunt down every FOX executive and squeeze their Charlie Browns until they cry for mercy.

Fox Screws Over Arrested Development AGAIN

I just don’t get it. If you’re not willing to promote a show properly and put it in the right time slots to get some sort of viewing, why bother with the remaining episodes? Why not formally announce that you’re cancelling the show and let another network pick it up? Is it really necessary to put it in the worst time slot possible? AD is being treated like that fat girl that Fox has slept with and is afraid to be seen with in public. AD is not a fat girl! It’s a Jessica Alba-like hot girl that has a Jon Stewart-like wit. I just can’t believe what they’re doing to this show. It’s just tearing my heart to pieces. To pieces!

When there’s nowhere left to run, is there room for one more sun?
...

As I read, I like to bookmark pages that are significant -- parts of the story which are particularly well-written and inspiring. I wish I could do the same with my life. There have been so many great moments and so many well-written storylines. I’d like to get lost in them a few more times before I move onto the next chapter.

But that’s the thing about this crazy life – all we have left is a memory and a few ticket stubs when the moment passes. You just try and hold onto these as long as you can. In the end, the easiest days to remember are the days you lived with conviction.

All hail the Bluths!

So I’ve been toying with the idea of changing my name. After so many years of being teased as the kid with the girl’s name, I’ve had enough. Ok, I’m actually not that serious about changing my name but if I was, it would have to be something grand like Magnus or Maximus (Max for short). Or it could be something obscure and unique like Yevgeny. Or how about something hip and new-age like iShake or eJones.

My sister just came back from the great north for the holidays. She spends most of the year up north teaching science, math and English to the natives. She told me that she recently had a chance to eat some moose meat and some Canada geese meat. I told her she should’ve went for the Canadian animals trifecta and have some beaver as well. I think the oddest thing I’ve ever eaten is BBQ’s chicken feet at dim sum. It actually tasted pretty good. Which goes to show that you should never judge the feet by the wrinkly toes and sharp talons. Do chickens have talons?

Unless you’ve got crazy magnifier eyes, or a magnifying glass, you may need to click on the comic above to read it. I’d tell you what it’s about but I don’t want to spoil it for you.

‘Tis the season to be blogging. I’ve been away for much too long. I’m not even going to bother apologizing because I don’t think anyone reads this anymore. I will say though, this winter might be one of the coldest winters I’ve had in my life, bar none. Actually, bar one. There was this one winter back in the 80s when I was a wee lad and we lived in Saskatchewan. It was so cold that my tongue stuck to the monkey bars in the school playground. Luckily my little sister had snowshoes on and could run like the wind. I wish I was there to here that conversation with the school janitor.

Sis – "My brother's tongue is stuck to the monkey bars outside!"
Janitor – "I'm guessing you’re the smart one in the family."
Sis – "Actually, I am. We’ll need warm water, some hot chocolate and cookies, STAT!"

The only thing I wanted for xmas this year was for my show (Arrested Development) to be saved and it seems as though Santa has made good this year. ABC & Showtime are apparently looking to pick up the series right after FOX cancels the show. If you haven't seen this show yet, pick up the dvd’s from Best Buy and watch the first 3 episodes. You’ll be hooked. The funniest damn show on tv, ever.

This just in...

Teaching Intelligent Design is unconstitutional.

I heard the lawyers for the school board members argued that the jury was still out on "science".

Sonia will be spending xmas in Japan so it looks like a lonesome xmas for me :( If you’re bored and you’ve got the crime, I’ve got the inclination.

Have a Merry Christmas and a safe holiday season everyone.

He's Made a Huge, Tiny Mistake

Holy crap, that's gotta be the longest crack high I've ever seen!

They've Made a Huge Mistake
(Gorillaz - El Manana)

I just found out that FOX is planning to cancel Arrested Development and I can't help but cry like a little girl. Here's a show that is just head and shoulders above every comedy on tv today and somehow FOX cannot seem to market it to its seemingly mass of stupid viewers. And the writers of Arrested Development have snuck in some comments into their shows alluding to this very fact -- "Why are we going after this stupid demographic anyhow?" I'm convinced that the show is just too clever for the average FOX viewer.

I'm also convinced that Bill O'Reilly has something to do with the cancellation. Maybe Bill couldn't stand the left-wing humour. Maybe Bill couldn't stand that they mentioned his name on the show. Damn you Bill O'Reilly! Seriously, is there a more righteous sounding prick on TV these days?

Well hopefully another network picks up AD and runs with the show. As for FOX, they're officially on my boycott list.

Toilet Lawsuit

Seriously, the US really needs to get a grip on these litigations. It's just a colossal waste of the judicial time.

This reminds me of the McDonald's lawsuit where the lady sued the company for making their coffee TOO HOT.

"I may have been clumsy and spilt the coffee on my groin but did you have to make it so damn hot? Coffee isn't suppose to be THAT HOT!"

I wish we could sue these people for being idiots because they cause me mental anguish.
