I remember many years ago, I started reading this book, called Wizard’s First Rule. I instantly fell in love with it. I loved the story, I was totally immersed. I instantly fell in love with the characters, and the storyline. I loved almost everything about it. It was sad, it was happy, it was just exciting. So I picked up the next book, and so on and so on. Terry Goodkind, the author of the Sword of Truth series (starting with WFR), finally ended the series this year. The last few books were not quite as gripping or sensational, and frankly, I felt that they ended too soon. Almost as if Mr. Goodkind wanted to just end it already and probably pursue other things.
So when I heard they doing a tv show about the books, I was ecstatic. I enjoyed the speculation of who was going to be what role, and so on and so on. And thusly, Legend of the Seeker was born.
Now, after the bump, there are spoilers. There are spoilers for both the TV show and the books. So if you don’t want to be spoiled, don’t follow. If you don’t really care, then proceed.
Once again, the title has nothing to do with the post, however, it’s definitely one from one of my favories movies of all time.
More importantly, I had to make a post here to move my hijacked post down from the top. obviously it’s no longer my birthday. And thanks to everyone who came by to wish me a happy birthday, you guys are awesome!
There’s not much to say except right now, since 11/13, they’ve release the new expansion for World of Warcraft, Wrath of the Lich King, and we’ve been playing wow for a while. So please, leave a message at the beep!
Danalyn here hijacking Yoshi’s blog, yet again, to wish him a happy birthday.
Many of you may not know this, but Yoshi is old. I mean, really old. It’s that damn asian blood keeps him looking young and spry at the over-ripe old age of 61. That’s right, folks, Yoshi turns 61 today.
Who knew, right?
So, please leave tons of comments to blow up his inbox today! Tell him how young he looks for his age!
Okay, so he’s not really 61…but he’ll get there sooner than I will, so there!
Ok, so it’s late, and I can’t sleep. Instead I sit at this computer wondering what I could do. Insomnia is a killer, I tell you. Hopefully the doctor comes up with something. I’m sure it will require the use of some drugs. I heard him mention Ambien. I wonder how that will work with me. I asked him about my blood pressure, and he first started out with this cheery tidbit. That many diabetics go throughout life without any complications, any issues, and that’s that. Then there are those where everything that could go wrong with having diabetes go wrong. Call it malignant diabetes if you will. That’s what I have. He tells me I’m unfortunate, I just call it Karma. I must have been a really bad person in a prior life. Then he proceeds to tell me that I have what’s called resistant hypertension. It’s a real term, honestly.
So yeah, my health is pretty much crazy right now. And you know what, that’s really only the beginning. There’s so much going on, I’ve got information overload right now. And honestly, these post titles are turning out to be coincidentally about fire. seriously! If you’re not sure what the title post is from, it’s from a musical episode (the only musical episode) of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. (Once more with feeling)
It seems that I’ve chosen the fire thing as a theme lately trust me, this is not intentional.
As is usual, the title has nothing really to do with this post. Perhaps if there is a message, please cherish everything you have in life, and by god, all the little things make up all the big things. Cherish them all.
The other day, I was talking to Danalyn, as usual, and of course, she was working because she just works too much. Therefore I had to do her a favor and show her a pretty fun video. What it started out as was all the weird shit the Japanese people do on tv. There are other videos I found that I won’t link here because, eww, they were weird. I think I will never be the same again after watching those. And I don’t plan on it again. But there’s this one Japanese Celebrity who totally kills me, known as “Razor Ramon“. You can probably take a look at the wikipedia page I just linked, but honestly, you just can’t see how funny he is until you actually see him in action. Video after the bump. Hoooooooooo!!!
No I promise you that the title of this post has nothing to do with anything political or this post whatsoever. It just happens to be a quote I like from one of my favourite movies. See if you can guess who said and what movie it’s from. If you get it right you’ll get my eternal respect. Don’t cheat now.
So, while surfing the net, I came across this interesting thing, 18 shirts you should NOT wear to meet your girlfriends parents. I’ve got some good t-shirts, but these are definitely not the type to wear to meet the parents. I don’t think even I would wear those to Meesh’s parents house now. LOL There are a few t-shirts I’d like to have for myself, however: warcraft t-shirts (thanks cybr) and this one (thanks Jules).
I think I’ve managed to link pimp quite enough of people today.
So anyways, once in a while I like to throw this one unknown song thing out there because someone might know what it is. It’s been on one of my mix tapes since the 90’s (more like the 80’s) and I just can’t remember where I got it. It really frustrates me and makes me angry, because I cannot for the life of me remember what it is. So please if you recognize this song and know what it is, please please please let me know what it is.
As for the title of this post, if you saw the most recent Hulk movie with Ed Norton, you’ll understand.
[edit] thanks to ocB, I did try out Tunatic but it said song not found.
[edit2] if you wish, could you please spread the news? The more exposure I get for this, the better off we are. :D
Well, it’s Halloween. Somehow it seems like this holiday has lost a lot of magic for me, mainly because I’m diabetic and I really, really loved the candy. But it doesn’t make this holiday any less fun in other ways. According to the wiki how to, the Sarah Palin halloween costume will be one of the most popular ones this year. I think that’s pretty funny. I’d like to see a bunch of Sarah Palins running around trick or treating. That might be pretty damn funny.
On a totally different note, over at girlrobot, I saw a most awesome and funny video, called “First Asian guy”. It’s a pretty well put together song about going out with your first asian guy. And as girlrobot point out, how hung up asian guys are on being so unpopular with non-asian women. Are we really that hung up? Probably. :P Not to mention, this guy is really very good. Video is after the bump!
No, not here. I forgot all about it. Over at Danalyn’s. She remembered that it’s free for all friday and opened it up. Meanwhile, I’ve forgotten all about it and hopefully I’ll remember it for next month. Although I have to admit, will people even be blogging on the day after Thanksgiving? Anyways, take a visit over there, make a post. You’ll most likely be reading a post from me there.
Also if you haven’t already, check out the web comic, A Little Scary. Tomorrow, (yes Halloween) you get to find out what Stan’s costume is. I don’t know about you but I’m highly anticipating it.
You know how in Japan they have really strange things in their pop culture? Yeah, well I know this is old but I was talking to Danalyn today and had to share with you this funny thing that just popped into conversation. I was telling her that for halloween, I plan on being Hiro from Heroes. I figure all I need is a sword and to go around saying “Yatta!” Which of course brought to mind, Happatai. So anyways, Danalyn sent me the “Yatta” song and I just had to watch the video again, and share with you, my lovely readers, this video. Video after the bump!
