Favorite Conversation

This is my favorite conversation I've ever had with my friend Ashley. Or anybody for that matter:

Ash: Mike, have you ever even seen a real vagina?
Me: Yeah, I saw yours like 2 hours ago remember?
Ash: Oh yeah.

Michael Phelps

and I TOTALLY need to hang out. Nice choice on the RooR!!

Ichi the Killer

Here's a doozy for y'all. It's become one of my favorite horror movies. From the acclaimed Japanese director Takashi Miike the master of Japanese horror/torture/insane gruesome cinema comes Ichi the Killer. Actually it came out quite a while ago but we in America just don't have the guts to watch this kind of stuff in theater. Of course being the Japan nut that I am I fell in love the first time I watched it. I've always admired films that seem to have a super human quality to them but no super human powers. The characters are obviously human but traumatized at childhood or had some sort of fetish for the unusual sending them onto a path of life that creates more than your average man. I won't ruin the story, actually I couldn't come close to describing the awesomeness of the movie but the overview is a yakuza foot soldiers master has gone missing and he will stop at nothing to find him. It doesn't contain much culture as most great Japanese films do but if your a fan of gore, horror, torture, yakuza, self mutilation, terror, revenge, and the insanity that Japanese films are so famous for then you will enjoy this movie. Even if your not too big on all that jazz you should watch it anyways!! Enjoy.

I can't wait..... for Liev Schreiber

There haven't been any movies that I've felt thrilled about seeing in theaters lately. For quite some time now actually. The last movie I saw was the new Batman movie The Dark Knight. It was a well done movie but I'm not much for action films. I was hoping it would be a little more comic bookish. But there are a few coming up around May this year that I will definitely be willing to fork up 10 bucks to see. Here's the ones I'm aware of thus far.

The Watchmen


Angels & Demons


Star Trek


X-Men Origins: Wolverine


I know Hugh Jackman is a total stud beefcake, but check out Sabertooth being played by Liev Schreiber..... WOOF!

Blah Blah Blah

So it's superbowl day today. I guess I should be a little more excited since the Cardinals are gonna be there but, blah. I'm way more excited that my aunt is making a bunch of football food and bought me beer. I'm definitely not going anywhere tonight, especially if they win. The streets are gonna be full of psychos!! Tomorrow's Monday and I have to start looking for work again. I've decided if I need to take a pay cut to find a job that is NOT dealing with assholes and getting yelled at by people over the phone that is what I'll do. No more coming home from work wanting to kill people, no more abusive assholes that use me as their whipping boy, no more adults that act like spoiled children, NO MORE! I just can't deal that kind of behavior. Plus I have some legal matters to deal with this month and don't need anymore stress.

On a happy note it was my Birthday on Thursday. stayed at home with family and ate a chimichanga from Macayos. De-lish. I really didn't feel like going out and doing anything. Not that I have any money to spend anyhow, but I had a nice relaxing Birthday. 3 more years and I'll be 30. Oh god....

Just finished watching Shogun the TV series for the 80s I believe. Very good. If you haven't seen it or read the book by James Clavell I highly suggest it.



In the meantime I've been catching up on old podcasts that have long since been abandoned, but if your interested in hearing some humor, politics, rants, and just general good listening please visit them. I plan on having a podcast and blogroll added to my sidebar within a day or so. Just check out the links.
