2003 BAFTA Awards

By Rifleman | Published: February 28, 2003

Thursday night, I settled in to watch the four-day-old 2003 BAFTA ceremony on BBC America. Considered by many to be a good indication of what’s to come at the Oscars, I consider it to be a cheap imitation of the Oscars. Wait, that’s taking it too far. It’s more of a cheap imitation of the [...]

Footloose

By Rifleman | Published: February 27, 2003

I have a new hero and his name is Ren McCormack. For my Theater Appreciation class, I was required for a grade to attend my school’s performance of the musical Footloose. First let me say this, if Junior College musical theater doesn’t restore my faith in the arts, then I don’t know what does. Now [...]

Mr. Rogers vs. Stomach Cancer

By Rifleman | Published: February 27, 2003

“It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood…Hello, children, welcome to my neighborhood. I’m just going to change out of my coat into this nice comfortable cardigan. I suppose I should make sure it’s comfortable, because I’m not going to be changing clothes anytime soon. And I’m going to go ahead and take off my shoes, [...]

Damn Ice Storm

By Rifleman | Published: February 27, 2003

Wednesday was my second day in a row sitting at home thanks to the lovely ice storm that enveloped the DFW Metroplex over the last few days. So, after a long night of working on the website and watching Sex and the City Season Three on DVD, I’d done what one simply must do on [...]

Hump Day

By Rifleman | Published: February 26, 2003

Wednesday, otherwise known as hump day, is quite a misnomer. I can’t remember the last time I did any humping on Wednesday or any other day for that matter. If I really wanted to get some humping, I suppose I could go out back and see if my dog would jump on my leg. That [...]

Grilla from Manila

By Rifleman | Published: February 26, 2003

I bought a George Foreman Lean Green Bean Jeans Fat Fighting Grilling Machine the other night. (One has to wonder if Joe Frazier and Muhammed Ali had collaborated to produce this product and perhaps had it been produced in a certain Asian country, would it be the “Grilla from Manila”?) For the grand sum of [...]

Blackjack

By Rifleman | Published: February 25, 2003

I just got done playing a few hands of Blackjack over at Yahoo! Games. Blackjack reminds me of one the greatest films of all time, Swingers. This movie taught me the most important of all life lessons, always double down on 11. All this talk of Blackjack makes me want to take a trip over [...]

Ballsack and the Little Japanese Schoolgirl

By Rifleman | Published: February 25, 2003

Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress, not to be confused with Ballsack and the Little Japanese Schoolgirl, which is a bukkake site I saw a banner ad for. I think. Or maybe I’ve just had too much teabagging on my mind–err, too much tea to drink tonight. Japanese tea. From a vending machine. That sells [...]

Appreciation

By Minotaur | Published: February 25, 2003

So, Rifleman got first crack at the blog, I suppose I’ll give it a shot. Today was a day like most days. I started off my day by going to my Theater Appreciation class. My class has been broken into groups to adapt fairy tales to perform for school children. My group has been assigned [...]

The Beginning of Something…

By Rifleman | Published: February 25, 2003

Well, I guess this is the first edition of the something so wrong blog. Is edition even the right word? It’s more of a journal (from the French jour anal, for Rectum Soup). So I guess entry would be the right word. Or bowl. (Unless you’re reading this in more of an appetizer sense, then [...]
