"Happy Tree"

America loves Bob Ross. America loves happy trees.

My friends, Mac, David, Long, Dave, Owen & Ximena entered the Alamo Drafthouse's Filmmaking Frenzy called "Pimp My TV".

Hollywood has been pumping-out movies with a TV theme. They have made The Dukes of Hazzard, Get Smart, etc. For the "Pimp My TV" Filmmaking Frenzy, they were supposed to create a trailer for a TV show that should be made into a movie.

My friends created an AWESOME movie. I loved it. To view their entry, check-out this link. You will not be disappointed. It is fantastic. It is a great way to spend 5 minutes. I have watched it 3 times and laughed each time.

After you watch it, do 2 things:
#1) Join the Filmmaking Frenzy community by creating a user ID and password
#2) Give the video 10 stars

Today's Word:
like dogs and cats

Today's Picture:

Aaaawwwwwww... what a bunch of crap.

PugPuggy discovered a cat in our backyard the other day. There was no cuddling. There was barking. There was staring. There was back-arching. But there was no cuddling. In fact, this is what it looked like:

The cat was probably a little bigger than PugPuggy. I assume the cat belongs to a neighbor. But PugPuggy was defending her territory. She walked back and forth on the porch, barking at the cat. The cat never took her eye off of PugPuggy, but also never ran. They had a good 20-second stare-off.

PugPuggy, how did you feel about the cat?

I see, PugPuggy.

After about 20 seconds, the cat ran off over the fence. PugPuggy chased-after the cat, pretending she was the one who made the cat leave. But, truth be told, PugPuggy never bothered the cat. She only watched the cat. PugPuggy likes to watch.


The cat is one of many of PugPuggy's enemies. PugPuggy's list of enemies includes:

5) The Cat (not all cats, just ones who come in our backyard)
4) The doorbell
3) Trick-or-treat-ers
2) The Roomba
1) And PugPuggy's ultimate enemy: the Vacuum Cleaner


Something PugPuggy inwardly hates: getting dressed up in costumes. She does not bark. She is not agitated. She is just annoyed. For example, check-out the Valentine's Day garment that was lovingly made by Megan's mom for PugPuggy:

The face says it all.

In Summary: The Cat is PugPuggy's nemesis, my dog talks to me in my head, the vacuum is the source of all pug misery.

DO NOT WANT

PugPuggy is much more passive in her "Do Not Want" moments.

Here is a picture of PugPuggy doing her best "do not want" in a dinosaur costume.

Today's Word:
Friday the 13th

Today's Picture:

Happy Friday the 13th, everyone.

I think the picture above is from Part 8? ... maybe, memory fails me.

Last night, I saw a special screening of the new Friday the 13th. The guy who plays Jason, Derek Mears, was at the screening. Les went to the movie with me. It turns out that Derek & Les know each other. Derek is a member of ComedySportz in Los Angeles. Derek performs with my friend Andre. Andre & I were members of the same class at ComedySportz Austin. He is my long-lost twin brother. Here is a picture of us together:

Yes, that was a few years ago. I was young back then.

Andre made a public access TV show of which I was a part. It was called TV Junkies. I think the episodes are still out there. Andre is a very talented & funny dude. I wish he was still in Austin, but if he is going to make it big, he needed to go to LA. I am happy for him... and I will get to say I knew him "back when".

Friday the 13th was exactly what I hoped for... fun and more fun. I had a blast at the movie. The movie itself is exactly what you want from a Friday the 13th movie. Derek is my new favorite Jason. Derek re-enacted a killing with Zach (from the Alamo). We missed the kill because one of the projectors blew... no big deal, that stuff happens. I sure wish it would have happened during Marley and Me, but oh well. Zach MC'ed the thing very nicely... he smoothed over the awkward situation like butter on roadkill. Yes, "butter on roadkill" is a compliment.

If you like the Friday the 13th genre of movies, you will like this one. Enjoy your time at Camp Crystal Lake. Go see it.

In Summary: Jason Voorhees is friends with Andre, I was young once, Zach is like butter on roadkill.

Today's Word:
perfect chick flick

Today's Picture:

Really? Dirty Dancing is the perfect chick flick? Am I the only one who remembers the dirty doctor and the abortion that goes wrong? Does the perfect chick-flick involve a mid-twenties dance instructor of questionable character seducing an upwardly mobile teenager?

I carried a watermelon and its name is APPALLED!

In reality, I love Dirty Dancing. The hardest thing about being a guy and admitting you love Dirty Dancing: revoking your "Man-Card". Yet I put my masculinity on the line for anything made by "The Swaze". Roadhouse - love it. Red Dawn - love it, too. Point Break - bad ass. Grandview, U.S.A... ok, so I don't love everything PS did. But Patrick Swayze was a big part of my childhood.

This weekend, I am taking Megan to see a chick flick. It is Valentine's Day weekend, so I thought it appropriate. Right now, I am thinking My Bloody Valentine: 3-D.

I kid, I kid.

But I am going to see the new Friday the 13th movie tonight. Hooray for Camp Crystal Lake.
