......why?

You don't even know what this will mean for Marvel Entertainment; I doubt anyone really does.

More importantly, Disney isn't all Poly-fucking-anna. They made some great and creepy films, such as Something Wicked This Way Comes, Tron, the POTC movies, the National Treasure movies, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and the list goes on. Not to mention they're currently doing a new Alice In Wonderland with Tim Burton, which looks absolutely deliciously insane. So with Disney's other ventures that have nothing to do with that fucking cartoon mouse, why is their acquisition of Marvel Entertainment so awful? Why would you need to burn the place down and starting over, when Disney, of all companies, is one of the few to actually support new stories? If anything, it could be a tremendous benefit to Marvel....

[rant]I just read yet another article about some whinging ponce who created a petition to demand a formal apology from the British government. See, over 50 years ago, they did something absolutely horrific to a man who did something absolutely fantastic for his country and for the world. Yep. They fucked him over in a most monstrous way. But it happened over FIFTY FUCKING YEARS AGO. No one responsible for the atrocity against this man is alive, and if they are, they certainly are not in the government anymore. The man himself died a couple years after this atrocity happened to him. So what the fuck? What's an "official apology" going to do aside from making the petition creating fuckstick and all the whiney bints who sign it feeeeeeeel better? Srsly. What's the point of all these apologies?? They're all hollow and meaningless; no one who perpetrated the transgressions is alive; none of the victims are alive; no one alive cares, unless they stand to get some money out of it; no one making the apology today cares. These are all just hollow, pointless, attention getting bullshit. It's a disgrace to the memory of those who suffered, and it cheapens every single honest, heart-felt, sincere apology ever issued.

"Whaaaaaa!!! Someone you that you don't know did something you didn't know about to someone else you don't know way back before you or your mom or your gramma or you great-gramma existed!! And ZOMG!!!1one it may have been someone distantly related to you through marriages twice removed cousins and they did something to someone who may have been distantly related to me through adoption!!! I demandz apologeeeeeeeeee (and cash, benefits, etc.) from youuuuuuu!"

Oh, shut the fuck up. [/rant]

Afternoon all,

how we all doing?

Rushing round like a lunatic, work busy, have another OU assignment in end of this week but just come off a bank holiday, managed to sneak a couple of hours out with other half for a picnic and a walk at a national trust place.

Sorry to hear that baby is kicking you round the place MsA but sounds like he's getting you used to the run around.

My bass players wife is expecting in about two weeks.

I don't know what to make of the Disney thing as not enough info, one of those modern business with fingers in more pies than you expect so probably no practical difference to how marvel runs and with the popularity of Superhero movies why wouldn't a business with large film interests not be interested in strengthening ties to source material? We'll see...

Me, I'm gonna keep myself going though this week with hope that the audition that's lined up for Sunday yields a vocalist who stay for a bit and we actually gig (it's been like three years FFS!).

I might cheer myself up by signing up for my next couple of OU courses, nice ten credit job to keep my hand in through Nov/Dec until next and final maths module lands next year!

why thank you hk and feeling shattered myself, just gone an hour past supposed study finish as approaching deadline and whilst I have got what I wanted done sorted, I still have to do enough washing up for the kitchen to be servicable tomorrow and then get up early to go to Bourne tomorrow, it's gonna be a long week.

My weekend is going to concist of an OU tutorial followed by a day of maths on Sunday as I have my final assignment in two weeks after this one. Think of me whilst you're all having fun although if mem serves, HK will be working and it ain't easy.

Once I have all this out of the way, I'm so take other half over to Cambridge for a day trip and meal (Cambridge has one of the few places my other half feels comfortable eating in as never triggered her allergies) as a surprise make up for me destroying the flat on a regular basis with both maths work everywhere and kitchen/chores not done as well as strictly I ought.

(Shoves a tub of pure Stickyooeygooey at FLT)

Knock yourself out.

I had to attempt a daring rescue last night. (Okay, not really that dramatic.. but I was tired and irritated.)

My father called at about 9:15 to say he'd lost his keys somewhere on a ride at the State Fair. He and boychild were downtown (in a not that great to be in after dark part of downtown.) and was wondering if I'd be willing to pick them up.

Sonofa...

I'd been nodding off after a busy day and was waiting for them to come home so I could go to bed. I hopped in the car, drove down to get them (narrowly avoiding some idiot who decided to try running DIRECTLY AT MY CAR, luckily he was in a white t-shirt so I saw him coming and was able to swerve into the oncoming lane.) Then finally found them and drove dad home. He said no, he didn't have a spare key, but he'd just climb through a window. No, he was sure he didn't want me to wait around to make sure he got in. So I then had the joy of driving home and trying to stay awake. It was getting close towards the end, but we made it safely. (About 10:45 now).

If he had just checked his pockets at any point before getting on the bus to go back downtown where he'd parked he could have called me much earlier, and maybe even gone back and hunted for his keys. Or if he'd just been willing to cough up the $7 for all day parking he would have possibly checked his pockets before exiting the fairgrounds. (Maybe)

So I'm awake now at 8:30, but still tired. (AHA! The coffee pot just made the "I'm done" gurgle!)

(Rummages around for a mug to put a cup of The Good Stuff in stasis just in case something's gone terribly wrong with the RL coffee.)

Great Lakes = great food! (Okay, so the barbecue you need to go South for, mostly... but still!)

Cabot's sharpest cheddars are my FAVORITE large-ish produced varieties. (We've got some awesome small-time producers around here.) Much as I'd love to continue the NY/VT cheese and maple rivalries, it's like wine. Depends on the cows and the years, but both states are consistently excellent.

Ben & Jerry's are teh awesome. We've got good ice cream stands here, but B&J have spread the goodness to the far corners of the world! (Ptooey on air filled, shrunk, crap ice cream. Ptooey I say!)

Burlington is ice cream Mecca!

Five of us managed to finish a half Vermonster once. Oh, how full we were! (That works out to 3 scoops each plus toppings. Burp.)

We should exchange microbrews. Middle Ages from here for ... well, I remember Magic Hat being good..

CT also has some good brew.

AAAHHH!!! We're talking about food and bevvies again.

I'll just finish my coffee and figure out which cake to bake for Doctroid's return. (Teh hubster is still in VA on an experiment. Delayed a week due to a busted compressor.) Boychild's helping pick out the recipe.
