the red party

I hear a lot about socialism these days, and it's all because of the President-elect, Barack Husein Obama. Endorsed by the capitalist turned philanthropist, Warren Buffett, Obama is a no good Marxist who's only goal is to take the hard earned money from "Joe the plumber" and redistribute it to...well - Joe's half brother, Gary the electrician.

Bush's Administration has done nothing but good for this great nation, from the day he was elected: taking the longest presidential election on America's dollar, Homeland Security, Katrina, pushed equity into the markets, met with world leaders to establish regulation in global markets,$700 billion bailout, taking over private banks in a crashing economy, helping the farmer with agricultural subsidies, pork barrel politics, just to name a few. Now in the waning days of his presidency his administration is pushing for "midnight regulations". All to protect the American citizen from ourselves and leave a lasting impression. What an amazing President.

Obama says he wants to extend the unemployment benefits. He says that America needs to work for bipartisanship. What a crock. Sure he looks to noble republicans for advice, but is he really taking their advice or just doing what he did to win the votes and hearts of a new generation of Americans - lie! There are hints that he will look to drill offshore America where it is currently banned, which is maybe the first step to progress, but I bet he will just keep pushing for "alternative fuels". He is such a socialist. He is probably going to implement federalist programs to try and bring America out of this recession, something a Kommie would do.

So dont stop supporting the Red Party just because we have a new blue president-elect.

The
done.

Jimmy Stewart female-ized

Well this has been quite an exciting day. Im happy with the way that the election turned out. Im not going to lie though, I would have loved to have Hillary 08 in there, but Im not too picky when it comes to politics.

I woke up early (7:30 pacific) and got a good jump on the situation around the country. I was anxiously awaiting the early morning election day coverage, and it popped over to Sarah Palin voting in her home town. The cameras were in a frenzy as they caught glimpses of the not unattractive Governor/PVP. She walked into the city hall where she got her start in politics, I can only imagine that was somewhat nostalgic for her, voted, and walked out. She had to walk about 200 yards from the voting precinct before she could answer any questions for the press. The cameras rolled as she and her husband strolled hand-in-hand through the cold, snow packed parking lot. I assume there was some line or "X" because they stopped on point and began to answer questions. I watched in anticipation, as I have not been able to witness the stumbled over sentences or mundane blathering of the once beauty queen first hand. As her lips parted I was more taken by her choice of words, and especially the delivery. Palin has been known as the "hockey mom" throughout the campaign and has rashly been accused as someone who has no political experience, and I wont disagree. I despise McCain (see previous post), but I love Governor Sarah Palin. I grew fond of her, despite the rumors of her absolute moronic behavior, when she appeared on SNL. What a good sport.

But as she stuttered through her simplistic sentences I could only think of one thing - She is Mr. Smith. She has no formal training in political grammar. She isn't all put together. She doesn't have tons of experience. But she does have a vision. She does have a desire to help change this nation. She can gain a lot of experience in four years. Why not have two historic presidential elections back to back. What do you say...Palin '12?

Thats my two.

JT's "cry me a river"

Im sick of the economic crisis. The Government has definitely screwed the consumer, mostly because of the fed mortgage/lending companies raping the everyday American giving it the old college try to succeed and somehow get ahead. They screw up and try to fix it with duct-tape (Im going to blame the baby boom generation for this, and you should know that I am anti-baby boomers. They are the prideful, money-hungry, destructive, savage, selfish, capitalist, old farts that are destroying this country. It shocks me that they will watch this country fall to shit, blame someone else, then try to rape the person they just blamed...and they regard themselves as the greatest generation.). Repairing a boat by pulling up other boards.

But the economy is not as bad as everyone says it is or as the American consumer feels it is. Sure we are spending less, but thats because we were spending a shit load. Its like Jerry once said about maximum strength meds, "I want you to figure out what will kill me, then back it off just a bit." Americans were finding out what would kill them, now they are backing it off a bit. Good.

Those companies failed because of the scandals and false reportings; because of the greedy CEO's that were going out with a bang (or golden parachute). The federal government, a.k.a. baby boomers, saw the dollar signs of the ballooning housing market and rode that bitch until she was dead. Stole her purse. And decided it would be best to skip town. Well Johnny "Utah" Law caught up to them, and now they are trying to bail their own asses out on the cash they stole from the dead hooker.

Like I was saying, the dollar is up. Way up. But America is in panic mode so we are holding to that little greenback like Lane Frost on "Red Rock". Gas is under $2 in some parts of the country, but we are still pissed. This shit is not happening again. The Gov's dont care because Exxon posted its highest gains ever for the last quarter and the bailout passed. I feel like Bill Haverchuck. Every American is Bill Haverchuck. When will it ever stop. Im hoping that the holidays will help.

my life sucks

Well folks I hate to break it to you, but this blog has no fancy title that is secretly refering to some hidden meaning of something that was once better, but the title speaks for what my life is...currently. I suggest you just not read this one.

I wake up and go to work. I work a twelve hour day. I come home and sleep.

Man how can so many people do this? They get into a rhythm of this crap. Well I refuse. I swear to you. This time next week I will have good news to bring to the masses. I dont know what the news will be, but I will bring it, and it will be a change that will domino into something bigger. Im not promising a huge change right now, but I am promising change. This is a change you can believe in. Hmmm. That has a jingle to it.

So right now my life is slowly unraveling, well there was a big unravel tonight. After a super shitty week and some serious hours that I thought I would never be doing, after that situation where you put work before your loved ones...you know. You always see the situation in the movies...the dad who is working so hard so that he can get ahead and provide a better life for his family, but in the process he misses his kids tee ball games and ends up screwing everything up. Well I did that with my relationship. Then I blew up. (little L Im sorry)

Im just realizing that as I was getting this whole big ball rolling, I decided that I was going to work smart, but somehow I got lost. Im just working so freaking hard now. Too hard.

Im sorry about this crappy rant, but you dont have to read it.

Roman Holiday

I know that many of you are excited about the title thinking, "Is he really going to blog about a movie that is good?" But let me tell you first hand...no. Im writing because I started working on a kiosk. It has only been two days and it is very discouraging. I have no spare time, hence the "holiday in the title" and I have to just keep reminding myself, as cliche as this is going to sound, but "Rome was not built in a day". So with those two little self help reminders I just might make it folks.

2 days = 2 sales

At this rate we will be hundredaires by months end.

The CDC is in the house

Let me set this up for you...Its a rather upscale party, like the fundraiser that Bruce throws for Harvey. Classy people having a classy time when suddenly someone interrupts with a crash. Guns pop and really grab attention. The earsplitting bangs echo throughout the expansive corridors, and immediately set the guests on edge. A man...a man who lets his visage, demeanor, and eerie smirk precede his witty, wicked tongue. A man who resents his unpopular reputation with the people, or resents the people for their objectionable opinions. This is me.

Quarantine was awesome. I am a zombie movie fan. Im like a kid in a candy store when Im watching zombies dance across the screen; whether they be slow and rythmic or speedy and sporadic, I just love them. The critics were all mingling at some cavalier party, naysaying this film, and I'm busting down the doors with my rat-a-tat-tat.

This movie is a remake of a mexican film Rec, I assume named after the "RECord button", but was perfectly initiated. The Dowdle's were flawless. They did The Poughkeepsie Tapes. A film that is also dedicated to mutilation and horror, but on the slighty more psychotic side. The camera work for Quarantine was still raw, but they kept it somewhat professional as to not cause any migraines and/or people from spilling their lunch. The sad thing is that this movie will be torn apart by the critics, and hashed out as unoriginal rubbish. I completely disagree. Its brilliant. Its admirable just for the fact that years after The 28's, BWP, The Ring, and Descent they could create a horrifying scene. Complete carnage is brought before the audience, and its beautifully portrayed in only half light and half the frame. Some of you may feel the back of someones head is not that frightening, but who didnt want to see what was behind her? Who didnt want to see what was in the attic? Who felt comfort in seeing her step into reporter mode?

I jumped. I did. I sat in awe as the camera slammed into faces, slid on the floor, and built an insane amount of tension with just a flicker. I was so anxious that when the camera turned off, I felt my heart skip, and when it captured the impossible, it jumped. This is a movie that reminds me of those good modern horror movies. It has gore. It has carnage. It has derangement. And at the same time it allows the imagination to fill in the blanks, like when the elevator closes. Imagination is thrilling and powerful and frightening.

So this film is like the party and it is not fun, but scary. And I have to disagree with this party so I appear as some stranger, a menace, terrorizing lives. Oh the horror. The terrifying, unabashed destruction of everything. Isnt it wonderful.
