GENETICALLY BACK FROM THE MOVIES

Writing this just as I came back from seeing Ghost Rider. I enjoyed the movie. The special effects were cool and I liked the humor of the film and the touches of Western elements. It was worth seeing on the big screen alone for the scene of the two Ghost Riders racing across the desert. I think this film very much like the Ghost Rider comics is about visuals. Cage did a great job with the character of Johnny Blaze and I do hope they do a sequel because of the same reasons I wanted Fantastic Four to get another second movie in that with the origin story out of the way they might just have the chance of doing something interesting. And from what I have seen of Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer they just may pull off a very good sequel.
I wanted to see Pan’s Labyrinth but it is already out of the small theater near by which carries smaller films so I will have to buy that when it comes out. Still lots of movies I want to see this year, the list containing-300, Transformers, Spiderman 3, Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer, Harry Potter: The Order Of The Phoenix, and probably some I’m forgetting.

I was visiting one of my churches the other day. The one who will drive me broke one of these days, Best Buy. Nothing new Doctor Who DVD wise but March sees the release of The Sontaran Experiment and The Invasion on DVD. Really looking forward to The Invasion. Also coming out in March is the 10th Doctor novel Made Of Steel. Probably order that through the local B&N.
Also coming out in Doctor Who merchandise that month from Big Finish Audio are Renaissance Of The Daleks, Horror Of Glam Rock. And from Big Finish Books Short Trips: Destination Prague. I wonder if I could order those through B&N? Anyways, I need to start keeping up with new releases because I’m already way behind in Doctor Who books and have a couple of already released DVDs to pick up for my collection.
Enough about one of my addictions.

Hit 1000 + words into the novella Sunday night. I added to chapters from writing I did while at work.

On our way home from the movies we almost got into a car wreck when a SUV driver decided he wanted to be in a lane which Heaven forbid had another vehicle there. Then on the drive back also we found out one of Wave’s neighbors died in her sleep. Sad, Wave said she was really nice. Interesting this is that Wave’s families dog daily went over there every day to visit them and now the little dog is very sad.

Written Sunday night while Wave watched SVU,

WAVE COULDN'T THINK OF ANYTHING FOR THE TITLE

I have taken it easy at the pay the rent job over the weekend. The past couple of weeks I have worn myself out working the 6th and 7th day of my work week but I’m feeling much better this Sunday. I’m still tired but that’s ok. Before I was feeling really sick by Sunday. And the good news is I have next weekend off. We are making plans now on what to do with the two days like Pinky And The Brain late at night in lab. Wave’s The Brain and I’m proudly Pinky.

Now responses to Comments:

Robin,
I have always wondered why it never came up before. I guess only in sci-fi did you ever see the possibility of astronauts cracking up. I think I would though. I would be seeing space out there, looking out into nothing, and then start thinking about what if this bolt comes lose or that bit does not work right? To be honest though I am the person who when they sit him by the emergency door on a airplane my first thoughts are, ‘Pull it. Open the door Brian…DO IT! DO IT!’
As to the anti-Copernican thing. I was sitting reading it thinking there is no way this is real but we both know how crazy some people are in this world. My whole thing with saying I do not believe in black holes is just my way of saying I think most of science and history are based off faith and facts and thus are theories and not proof of anything. In my eyes science and history are just as much of a religion as any other. But that’s just me. I do not even believe we all exist in the same reality. That a very long conversation though if you get me started.

Hey, the Oscars are tonight. FUCK THE OSCARS! I’m going to see Ghost Rider. Don’t care about the reviews. If I’m entertained than plot be dammed. Superman Returns had lots of plot, so much they should have thrown some to the side. I liked the movie but did we really need a mini-superman and what is the next movie going to be about, more Superman stalking that family? Who else felt a little creepy about that? I did.
Oh, yea, FUCK THE OSCARS! I mean how can you have any respect for a awards show that basically ignores large groups of movies. One and only one example. Three animated movies and all three are American productions? Fuck that. I guess they gave the award to one Anime film a few years ago and now do not ever have to do that again or even nominate one. And don’t get me started on how they ignore comedies and action films for the most part for the big awards.

Any interesting news today?
Nope.

I want one of these. We have a lot in common. Though he looks more like Conan than I do.

The novella is going well. Finally got a good sit down writing session last night. Mostly been writing on the fly over the past couple of weeks. I finished of the Preface, a little Moment section, and Chapter One. Hopefully tonight I can get in at least 1000 words into Chapter Two. I have already written bits of all of the Chapters up to Chapter 10 but now I am really diving into them. I can not wait until I get to 10 and find out then where the story will take me for the next couple of Chapters if not until the end of the story.

Written at the pay the rent job,
