Flux opperates on 1.21 jigs


May I present Flux, the newest member to our little family.


Flux enjoys eating flies, eating his own tail, purring LOUDLY, head butting, scaring himself with whatever he can find, and plotting to gain access to the restricted areas of the house.

He's pretty slick about that last one. The first couple of times he tries the direct approach, where he just decides that he's going into the bathroom, and walks right in. At which point he is removed and told no. Phase two of his ingenious plan is to use stealth. Where apparently if he moves slowly enough then I won't be able to see him, as if I'm a T-Rex or something. Or at least, that's how it works in his world. In our world, he is removed and once again told no.

His final attempt is by far my favorite. Flux will position himself at a safe distance from the door he wants to access but close enough to where he still has a clear view of it. He waits patiently for someone to open the door for themselves, and then he makes his move like a bolt of lightening. With a loud pop (which can only be the sound barrier yielding to his awesomeness) he takes off in a blur of gray and muscles his way into the door using brute force.

He hasn't tried this yet with trying to get into where we store the food, but then again, he could just be doing all of this to keep us occupied while he works on his true plan. That devious cat.

1.21 Jigawatts!

Today we bring home the newest addition to the family. Flux. Right now his cat carrier is kinda boring, but keeping with his name sake.... that will all change.....

I won't post any concept pictures or anything, but I will say that if he reaches 88 mph in that thing, all bets are off.

Something from left Field

Last night was a sort of "Fend for yourself night" as far as dinner goes.

What did my wife have? Two portobello mushroom tops with spinach and cheese.

And myself?

Microwaved skyline chilly, 7 fish sticks, and three doughnuts.

Yeah, I win at being healthy.

Ima gonna eat my gold medal

For those who wonder if we as a society are losing our freaking minds.....

Wonder no more:






When the officials wreath the athletes with their medals at the next Olympics, I think they should say "Congratulations, do you want fries with that?"

Dang it Fandango....

Movies.com used to be my major source for mainstream film info. Ratings, reviews, even upcoming buzz. Notice the bold there. Yea, you know where this is going to end up.

Apparently movies.com was bought by Fandango and then "incorporated" into the "fandango family." And by incorporated I mean completely tossed from the car as it barreled down the interstate doing 125 and revamped to be nothing more than a slightly different looking portal for Fandango. Click just about anywhere on that site, and you end up at Fandango.com with a tiny banner reminding you that Fandango is now Movies.com's pimp.

The short of it? Movies.com is now useless. It's nothing more than some homeless guy hanging out front yelling at you trying to convince you to walk into his trashy bar and spend $9.00 on a beer.
