New Summer Movie Trailers

Works a little slow this morning (just like your mom) so I 've been able to check out some new movie trailers. If you haven't seen the new Indiana Jones trailer, than you must already dead.

First up, Iron Man

Iron Man Exclusive Trailer

Add to My Profile More Videos

It looks like alot of fun. Unless reviews totally trash it, add it to the list.

Second would be The Love Guru, a new one by Mike Myers.



I'm a little iffy on this one even though I've been wondering what he's been up to. It's kinda funny and might have some potential, but I might need to see another trailer and some reviews to make a final decision.

GOB III on Conan

I rarely watch Conan, but last night I happen to stumble on to Will Arnett. It was great and made me want to watch Arrested Development again. I think this needs to be seen, and as luck would have it, it's already on the internets. Enjoy

Part 1



Part 2

Dunking

Read a pretty good article in SI today, (yea the magazine....yea they still have that, if only for the swimsuit issue but still) and it had a pretty sweet article on dunking (basketball, not your mom). Linky Here (which brings me to another point...why do I subscribe again?)

Still, there's a great shot of a Vince Carter jam in the olympics that I have not seen until then...er now....whatever tense it's suppossed to be in. I think it's bloody fantastic! (bloody? what the hell are you British now?)

The aftermath of that dunk is arguably better than the dunk itself.

Carter first garnered national attention for his high-flying brand of play during his three years at North Carolina. NBA renown came with his novel "elbow dunk" to clinch victory in the 2000 dunk contest. But international acclaim would follow months later during America's run to the gold medal at the Sydney Olympics, where his eye-popping dunk over French 7-footer Frédéric Weis became known worldwide as le dunk de la mort ("the dunk of death").

How fucking awesome is that? The whole country made fun of that guy, which is really bad since the French themselves are the ass of many jokes (you see what I did there?). To be the ass of the jokes by the people that are constantly picked on...well there's not much worse than that.

Here's another dunk they mention in the article....Baron Davis dunk over Kirilenko in the 07 playoffs. Nasty.

Go HERE for more sweet dunks...all linked in one place. Nice job.

This is....Greatness

I can't stop laughing at this.

What's Scarier?

Option A:

News Story



Option #2:

Definetly need to see this.

Does Judd Apatow have a name for his movies like Kevin Smith's View Askew Universe? He needs one. This time Freaks and Geeks stars Seth Rogen and James Franco are back. I'm curious to see which other of the Apatow crew show up in this one.



With The Dark Knight and Indiana Jones, this should be a another great summer for movies.

Stonebriar Sheraton Hotel

Just about complete... for now. They'll do Phase 2 later this year where they add another wing to the hotel (6 or 7 stories), a convention center with a pool on the roof and a parking garage.

Exterior Shots






Guestrooms







Some shots of the 1st Floor public areas.
Obviously they are still not done with the light fixture. They've since finished the fixture and added furnature since I first posted (2-22-08). I'll try to get an update.

They call this the "Link" area. It'll have computers on it.
Pictures of the Kitchen



Ugly carpet in the meeting rooms.

Picture of the ceiling in the meeting rooms

Pictures of the reception desk and the marble top.

Count'em

Call these optical illusions (Illusions Michael...tricks are what a whore does for money...or candy) if you will. It took me a while, but I think I've gotten them all.







(By the way, I think the last one was the weakest of the bunch)


See what you say? I'll post the answers in the comment section soon, just incase you're completly lost.

Thomas Goes to the Bathroom....Hilarity Ensues

Soo let me get this straight. A "meskin" abortion clinic is a Honky buffet?
I had not seen this one until recently. I laughed. I'm actually a little creeped out by this one...
Well this should save me the 8 hour drive.
I wonder if they card.
This one's hilarious to me...and it's also how I refer to rough toilet paper ever since.

This one's only funny if you know our Superintendent Jorge. Apparently the field thinks he's some sort of ninja turtle.

This post reminds me...I really should put up some completed photos of the hotel. Stay tuned!

Sarah Silverman & Matt Damon

Because I needed something to make me laugh on a Saturday that has started out shitty.



By the way, it's borderline (so's your mom) but it's probably not safe for work.

Go On...Laugh

You know you want to...even that last one is funny. Jesus will forgive...it's what he does.

DeAndre Jordan

Check out his slam...it's the first one.
From last last Saturday's game versus Colorado.




F'in sweet.

Daaaaayum, this hobby is expensive.

...and no, I wouldnot say I'm a nerd. I'd say I'm more of an idiot for spending all that on video games. Small difference I know, but still, get it right.

Apparently I like to play games

You're impressed aren't you. Yea...you know you are.
Actually, my list isn't very big (It's a good size!!!) If you'd seen some of the lists I've seen, you wouldn't think it's that impressive.

Highlights from the Cowboy vs Eagles Game

PICTURES

Editor's Note (Hey, that's Me!): This post would be alot better if I could just save the pictures from the slideshow and post them directly on the blog....but my bow staff skillz don't translate very well.

Funny Little Email

"To all of you who may be a little sensitive:

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2008, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere. Also, this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee.

For those of you who are 'thick skinned':

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!"

That made me laugh. Thought it might do the same to you. Nothing like some office humor, eh?

I also just realized that I need update the blog a bit. Seems Iv'e got about 25 posts sitting in "draft" form waiting to be published. Damn, I've got to pick a day and just update the damn thing. I've let it slide long enough. I'm sure my eager readers are as tired as seeing that Orbitz commercial on the front page as I am....you Liiiint Lickers.

Not really. I don't think I can get tired of that commercial.

What the hell is it?!?!

Finally, a little more footage on this movie. Looks like it could be pretty good.

Editor's Note (Hey, That's ME!)I really should of posted it when I first found the link....instead of Feb 2. Which reminds me, what the hell did the groundhog see this morning. Off to CNN.

Surprise Muthaf*&ka!

Color me impressed. ( I think you have to buy the big box of crayons to get that color. You know, the one with the sharpener.)

I like this

It's easy and fun and yet hard to master. Worth your while if you're bored at work.

Bloxorz Get the block to fall into the square hole.

Play this free game now!!

Now...I wait

Received just before 3 at the McAllen factory (or whatever) with no way to keep track. It's radio silence time, set to last...who knows how long. The service.xbox.com site still is f'ed. I doubt I get some sort of shipping confirmation email or tracking number since I didn't get one for the coffin.
