WE made it!!!!

We got into Houston last night @ 8pm Central time. The flight was a bad one. it was a commuter flight with only 3 rows of seats. So we got to sit on the engines at the end of the plain. We had 4 hours of drone that made us deaf!! we stayed at our aunt's house and today, we are at the sisters-in-laws for Christmas. It has been cool weather and i am glad. I will try to post tomorrow about our farther travels...
Caio!

Burnning cars...

When I was still in my teens, we would go over to Louisiana and go to some great clubs. Having said that, I will now tell you a story.

I was 19 and in college, SFASU. I experimented with many drugs and stuff like that. One night in the dorm room, my roomie and I were pouring Everclear alcohol into a green 7-Up bottle and setting it on fire. the fumes would burn at the top of the bottle. it was neat. Anyway, I was in Louisiana at a club called Club Fizz. we were in the parking lot waiting for a friend to come out and get us. I happen to have a 7-Up bottle and some Everclear with me, so I started doing the fire thing. it was cool and pretty as I was frying. well, I set it down and talked to my friend in the back seat. I had sheepskin seat covers on the front seats and a lot of paper under the passenger seat. I drove a Plymouth Sundance (later called the Flamedance) red interior and white exterior. I picked up the bottle and lit it again, it shot flames out and scared the shit out of me!! I threw the bottle down and the burning liquid caught the seat cover on fire, it quickly started to burn up the interior and the bouncers pushed the car out into a grassy field as flames shot out of the window. The fire department came and doused the car with water!! I was scared of how I was going to explain this to my parents at 4am in the morning... Well, we drove the car home with a wire frame of a passenger seat home. The insurance people totaled the car out and we purchased it back for $5000 and had the interior redone. I drove the car without a passenger seat for about a month as we bought one and it was getting recovered with material that matched mine. I put a lawn chair on the place of it for a while!!! Very funny! I drove the car until the summer of 1992 when I bought my Acura Integra. Two years later, I saw a car burnning on West Loop 610 in Houston. It was a rainy night and very late. I did not see any cops there...

I got the Flamedance in 1989 as a graduation present from my grandparents. What hell I put them through...
I love the dearly and I am going t see them in about 2 days!!!
BOB has now left the building...

New Movies...

Well kiddies, I hope that in the New Year, 2007, we have some better movies than what we had this year. Only a few come to my mind that were funny and worth noting that I saw in the Commonwealth 20.

Funny:
1. Talladega Nights
2. Beer Fest
3. The Pink Panther (very good remake IMHO)
4. You, Me and Dupree

SCI-FI/Other:
1. Da Vinci Code
2. Failure To Launch
3. Last Holiday

I watched on DVD - The Benchwarmers, Iceage 2, Stick It, Good Night and Good Luck, Syrian, Jarhead, SAW1&2, ALL THE STAR WARS movies, The Island, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, The Family Stone, Cheaper By the Dozen 2, The Girl Next Door.
Several series that I watch include: Nip/Tuk, The Shield, Rescue Me, Big Love, Deadwood, and The Wire

I need and plan to watch X-Men III as I have it and several others including the Bevis& Buthead 3 DVD pack set!!! and Invader Zimm 3 DVD set, also Capote.


I plan to purchase "SAWIII" when it comes out as well as "A Scanner Darkly" and " The Woman in the Water" (I am a BIG M. Night Shyamalan fan) And lots of 1970s and 8os TV series have come out: Jason of Star Command, Jonna's Arc, D&D, Just to name a few.


I just hope that the Fantastic Four 2 with the Silver Surfer will be good as I thought the first movie was a good one. We need some franchise to fill the gap left by Star Wars and LOTR ending.

I will try to post over the next week, but my mother's internet connection is very s-l-o-w.
So it might be sporadic, but I will try. If not, Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

Christmas

I am at work and all i can think about is going to Texas for Christmas to see our family.  we leave on Christmas Day and will return on the 31st as i have to work on the 1st of January, 2007.  This year has just flown by me.  It is also nice, i might add, to have been able to stay in a house for a WHOLE year!!!   No moving for us this time around!!  Chelsea is 13 and we promised her that we will stay put until she graduates!!

 

In Texas, we have to see a lot of people in a short time!!  All of my Wife's family, all of my family, a few friends and several other people.  We are gonna pop fireworks in the night of the 29th as that is when we are having Christmas with my maternals.  I love me some fireworks!!!  Well i will try to post more before i go to Texas.

 

CAIO!!!!

Let teachers and priests and philosophers brood

over questions of reality and illusion.

I know this: if life is an illusion, then I

am no less an illusion, and being thus, the

illusion is real to me. I live, I burn with life, I

love, I slay, and I am content.

(Robert E. Howard, Queen of the Black Coast, Weird Tales, May 1934)

 

This just sucks the big one!

5 million of our older Americans have not signed up yet for their
Medicare, Part D, drug plan------they are old and confused.

We are NOT going to grant them an extension.

However, 12 million illegal aliens are in our country and we are
going to allow them to stay, protest, procreate, receive support
monies, attend schools, avoid paying income taxes, have our
teachers take 300 hours of ESL(English as a Second Language)
training at our expense, etc.

WE MUST REALLY DISLIKE OUR OLD PEOPLE......
OR WE MUST REALLY LOVE TACOS!!!

Don't forget to pay your taxes......
12 million illegal aliens are depending on you!
