Just ask yourself, "What would Ron Swanson from Parks and Recreation do?"

Myself responded, "Who from what now?".

I'm with Zeek.. who is this Ron person??

I'm reminded of the incident of Annie and the pinata. It was her 2nd birthday and her mom bought a pinata. Well it hung around the house for a week and Annie played with it and had tea parties with it etc. The day of the birthday dawns and the pinata is strung. Annie is in high spirits and happily thwacks the pinata... then it breaks. Annie bursts into tears sobbing " friend friend so so sorry" and gathers up the broken pieces and insists on bandaging them back together. Pinata then attends rest of party as honored ( if somewhat injured) guest.

So, I don't know if I can count that as a planned trip. Not a lot of planning involved.

Same here except minus the Thor and "work". Stupid Summer decides to show up for a few days then turns back to Spring facilitating an allergy induced cold. This morning we got to watch Sea Hawks circle then land at the high school as part of a community disaster preparation plan.

I wanted more action personally. It seems to be a common problem with the marvel produced movies. They spend a long time building up the tension and not so much time on the cool fight scenes.

It was still a good movie though. They balanced the humor well and the story was good enough.

I would guess that this is due to super-hero scale action scenes being really expensive.

but...but...I want it. That whole money thing is their problem. Maybe they could save some money by not making it in 3D. I wasn't impressed by that at all. I actually wished I was watching it in 2D. They didn't even tell us on the ticket it was 3D. grrrr and on top of that I got Green Lantern and Captain America tickets from the same comic store. So, they're probably all in 3D.

I once made a few pairs of anti-3D glasses by swapping the lenses on two I had laying around. I never did get around to trying them out, but in theory... they'd have been perfect for times such as that.

I kinda enjoy 3D films... but since the recent fad they've just been throwing it in anywhere they can. It's often less than impressive.

Oh and meh I doubt she's gone yet. Which is good cause she's kinda cute.

My guess is that when Ted said it ended badly in that future scene that we still have more of that coming. Wouldn't be surprised if she chains herself to the building or something.

I heard someone say recently that the average school year is just about half the days in a year. If you only count days where you're actually in school. So, weekends and holidays are taken out. Sorta weird to think that it really is only half a year.

That is really weird... it feels like 2-3 years long( I'm sure to the kids too)

My personal fav misconception about teachers is that we get paid year round for 9 months work. We're on a 9 month salary. Some teachers elect to have their paycheck spread over the 12 months, but we only get paid for 9..

Hey what was your favorite activity at the end of the school year??

Watched it. Made me want to kick a puppy at the end. I'm getting close to giving up on this show.

Didn't they more or less promise the wedding would be the end of this season. Now it looks like they're pushing it to be just a glimpse of the future that will still be at least a season away.

And Nora is 1000x worse than Zoe. If they keep her and Barney together for any extended period of time the whole thing is going to be a disaster. Changing who Barney is will kill the show as well.

A baby isn't going to help anything either. They are really running the show off a cliff as quickly as they can. Grrrrr what a mess.
