Repent sinners!!

Happy Birthday Mr. Cash!

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black,
Why you never see bright colors on my back,
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone.
Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on.

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,
Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town,
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime,
But is there because he's a victim of the times.

I wear the black for those who never read,
Or listened to the words that Jesus said,
About the road to happiness through love and charity,
Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me.

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose,
In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes,
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back,
Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black.

I wear it for the sick and lonely old,
For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold,
I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been,
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men.

And, I wear it for the thousands who have died,
Believen' that the Lord was on their side,
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died,
Believen' that we all were on their side.

Well, there's things that never will be right I know,
And things need changin' everywhere you go,
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right,
You'll never see me wear a suit of white.

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day,
And tell the world that everything's OK,
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black.

- Johnny Cash

Once upon a time...

Testing testing, 1, 2, 3. Yes. Still alive. I really should start posting again.

Google Calendar

2008-04-01T03:58:00.000-07:00

I must have this! :)

Google Calendar: "In combination with the kit, you can receive a new type of notification from Google Calendar, called the 'wake up' notification. This notification is relentless in ensuring your timely awakening from restful slumber.

The 'wake up' notification uses several progressively more annoying alerts to wake you up. First it will send an SMS message to your phone. If that fails, more coercive means will be used. The kit includes an industrial-sized bucket and is designed to be connected to your water main for automatic filling. In addition, a bed-flipping device is included for forceful removal from your sleeping quarters. Learn more"

There's still hope in this world!

2008-03-30T15:19:00.004-07:00

Nowadays, with all the craziness that's happening in my life, there are just a couple of special things that make me come back to my humble little blog. THIS is one of those special things. A TV spot for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Nope, is not the teaser, which I think it sucked big time. The teaser almost made me lost my freedom and made me want to curse Spielberg and Lucas (and cursing Spielberg is something I've never done). But this... this little TV spot. Just a couple of seconds to restore the magic and the belief that someone as F**ing COOL and AWESOME as Indiana Jones is still around. In case you haven't seen it, rejoice with it now. May your lives be filled with hope. Amen.

How many times can one return from the grave?

2008-02-09T05:51:00.000-07:00

I'm not dead. At least not yet. It's been months and months since I last wrote, and to be honest, even though I didn't have much time, I made quite a difference. Does anyone even reads this? Who knows. Yet, I still don't know if I write it for myself or for the world. (I guess that if it was just for myself I would buy a diary with Hello Kitty on the cover and get done with it). Who knows why we act the way we act. Anyway, the question is, what is so important that is making me write again.
Maybe it was pride. Mr. Marshmallow was just saying that this blog was officially dead.
I hate when it's not ME who decides when something's dead or not (in this case, my blog).

Do I make any sense at all? Probably not.

ANYWAY, in short, what has made me write again? The fact that I just saw Justice League: the new frontier, and it totally kicks ass. Why? Because it's just like the comic book. Oh, if only people would learn from that. (yeah, Death of Superman made me cry- but not in a good way).

The other reason would be the new poster for James Bond's next movie: Quantum of solace. I love it. Yeah, after all these years Bond still rules.

And last, but not least, I'm way way way excited about the new Indy movie. And the teaser that will be out next week (Feb 14th). I trust Spielberg... I know he won't disappoint me. He won't destroy my hero.

Yet, it seems like a sensible idea to start building a bazooka, just in case.

Besides that, all quiet on the front. I'm still as confused and clueless about life as always, exhausted, and I often wonder if I'll even get that peace of mind which I had so long ago, when things seemed more simple.

Who knows, right? As they say, only time will tell.

Let us pray, sinners!

2007-11-28T03:22:00.000-07:00

What would make Ms. Mysterious come back from death? What would make your humble, yet magnificent leader stop enjoying her days of leisure? Well, duh, of course these two pictures. Watching Harrison Ford, all dressed up as Indy, watching Heath Ledger being a psycho, creepy Joker, just as it should be, brings a tear to my eye. *sob*. Life's good sometimes. I'll keep on praying every night though, pray 'till I have no strength left, till they hear me all the way to the heavens... You can all join me. *ahem* Please God, don't let Spielberg pull a Lucas with Indy 4. Don't destroy my heroes once more. Amen. Oh and don't let the Joker destroy with a stupid gun the batplane. It just doesn't make sense. Give him a missile next time. Double amen.

Ms. Mysterious in shock!

2007-08-18T00:47:00.000-06:00

Ollie is getting married!

(this won't make a lick of sense to pretty much anyone, but I'm sure that she'll explain)

Have you ever danced with the devil by tge pale moon light?

2007-08-17T05:32:00.000-06:00

Be scared, my dear sinners, be very scared... Here's another pic of Heath Ledger as the Joker. The dude sure looks creepy. Watch more pictures from The Dark Knight here.

Sydney, beautiful Sydney

2007-08-13T07:50:00.000-06:00

Is it August already? Damn, time flies when you're having fun. Okay, here's my life so far: I moved to Sydney, lived for almost two weeks in a (funky?) hostel, spent days and days searching for an apartment with Mr. Marshmallow, 'till we finally got one. On Saturday we survived the IKEA distortion field, got a couple of things (within our limited budget), enough for our little apartment. I guess we'll soon be able to call it home. =)
Film School is getting better and better everyday. On the other hand, work is... work ha ha. I prefer to be a student - as long as I'm learning something I like and I don't have boring teachers.. (Damn you Documentary subject!!!).
I haven't exercised in a month, which sucks, but I've been so busy that I guess it's forgivable for the time being. Same thing about Shiva, I haven't been playing as much as I want to. I'll have to do something about that. Maybe sell my body in exchange for guitar lessons? ...Anyone?

So yeah, I'm totally psyched with what life in Sydney has been so far. The last year and a half it's a blur. I guess is my self preservation system which is telling me to forget crappy Brisbane haha.

Ta!

P.S. Oh, and I can't help but being TOTALLY exited by the possible titles for the new Indiana Jones flick. Check them out here.
And damn.. I just read that David Tennant might leave Doctor Who to join play Hamlet on stage? DAMN
And last but not least, sequel of the Lost Boys starts filming next week with the original cast? Yes I'm talking about the Coreys.. Yup. The world is going to hell..

It's all happening!

2007-07-29T05:31:00.000-06:00

There's so much that's been happening in the last week. I moved to Sydney, I've been looking for apartments almost everyday since I arrived, and living in a hostel, waiting 'till I finally get place I can call home. In the meantime, I'm starting Film School tomorrow!! Finally, the first step towards my dream is actually happening. I'm more than excited to see what the future holds for me.

And since I'm ranting about me, my dreams and all that crap, check the new Indiana Jones site, with new clips with one of the guys (or probably THE guy) that whose movies have inspired me, enough to start this new whole film school adventure. Mr. Spielberg, ladies and gentlemen. Enjoy!

PS By the way, I love this pic. Karen Allen,Harrison Ford and Spielberg look awesome. A couple of wrinkles here and there but still kicking a$$!

The end of a wizard's tale...

2007-07-22T00:55:00.000-06:00

It's Sunday afternoon, and Ms. Mysterious has finally wiped the remaining tears from her face. It was time to accept it; Harry Potter's adventures were over.
Yes, I've just finished reading JK Rowling's last and final book in the HP saga: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I won't spoil anything for you in case you haven't read it. I will just say it was a trip, and adventure, and that I, like many others, are happy to have being part of it, and yet sad to say goodbye to our favorite characters.
As I closed the book and all that I had just read finally sank in, it was sad to see how the magical world which I was immersed for the last day and a half, disappeared before my eyes... Reality seemed much more... real. Dumb, I know, but you catch my drift.

I still remember the first time I took a Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone in my hands. I wasn't (and maybe I'm still not ) an eager reader, but I decided to try a couple of pages of that book. I still remember how the magical world swept my off my feet by the first page. (A cat reading the newspaper?!). That was the beginning of so many adventures, that are now over... I'm pretty sure I will not forget this day, how as I read the last page, tears of joy and sadness fell through my cheeks. Yeah, yeah, I know it's a story after all, that it's all happening inside my head. But, as Dumbledore says, why on earth should that mean it is not real?

Anyway, Long live Harry Potter and his friends. I can't wait to see the rest of the movies. At least we still have that to look forward. And please, my dear sinners and muggles, don't forget to remember Hogwarts motto in years to come.
Draco Dormiens Nunquam Titillandus
(Never tickle a sleeping dragon)

You never know when you might need it. =)

Turn it up to 11! (or not)

2007-07-08T05:42:00.000-06:00

Well, Live Earth concerts are now over. No, I didn't attend to any of them. yes, I'm all in favor of saving the planet and all that. Yes, I also, LOVE concerts, music festivals and all that stuff.
I was able to watch some cool performances on the net, being my favorite venue none other than Wembley Stadium. It's official, Brits always get the best stuff.

I could perfectly picture myself jumping and crowd surfing while listening to Metallica, Block Party, RHCP and Foo Fighters, watching in awe living legends such as Genesis and yes, Spinal Tap, singin my heart out with James Blunt and Damien Rice, remembering my childhood while listening Duran Duran songs, and remembering my crush as a 8 year old with Simon Lebon ..

I'm pretty sure they were all awesome performances (no, I haven't seen them all), and that people had the time of their lives.
Having said that...

This wasn't the best of plans if you are really concerned in saving the planet.

I won't go into detail trying to make numbers of what the carbon emissions of the concert were. I have no idea. That's something you could ask to Mr. Marshmallow, not me. But definitely I'm not stupid (or at least not THAT stupid) to know that concerts of this magnitude are not the best way to adress the problem. How many people traveled to the concerts? How many took planes? Lots of the artists even arrived on their own private jet. Little details like that, make this whole Live Earth to be a wrong execution of a good idea.

What about making sessions with all these artists? (If you've seen Sessions at Abbey Road, you know what I mean) What about that? you record it, you transmit it through the net, create all your awareness ads and stuff. Then you could sell the whole DVD with all the performances plus a t-shirt and a bracelet or something like ONE campaign. (we ignorant but good people like that kind of stuff) Give away all the information/ awareness packages to schools. Give away the DVD on the street. Sell them for carbon credits. Plant a tree and get your DVD. I don't know, I'm surely NOT an expert, but still, there must be a better way to do this. We're so used to big music festivals supporting a cause, that we have learned to just ignore the cause and go to enjoy the music. Yeah, we feel all envirnomentalist while we're there, or we feel that we're actually making a difference by just being at the concert, but once we're back in our homes we just keep on living as it never happened.

Anyway, just ranting. Thanks for dropping by. Remember to turn off the lights on your way out. =)

For those about to rock, I salute you!

2007-07-03T22:34:00.000-06:00

My dreams are about to come true... Finally, I'll be able to say goodbye to geekness and take my rightful place on earth as a Rockstar! I will ROCK!!... sort of..

Check this footage with a bunch of guys playing the really cool Rock Band game. Admit it. You want it.

The new companion...

2007-07-03T21:31:00.000-06:00

Are you ready? So the new companion for Doctor Who in series 4 is...Catherine Tate.
.... ________ (please insert your applause or Boo. Whatever you feel like doing at this time)

Hmm...Half UK hates her as far as I know... So that's going to be interesting ha ha. Read all about it here. Of course if you have no idea who Doctor Who is well, then this post is totally pointless. Yeah, just keep doing what you're doing. Ignore me as usual. Move along.

Dooonuts....mmmmmm

2007-07-02T06:45:00.001-06:00

Yup, this Kwik-E-Mart for real. Brilliant, huh? God bless the Simpsons. Check the rest of the photos here.

Junior &...Junior =)

2007-06-30T04:27:00.001-06:00

Okay, I'm excited. This is one of the first pictures of Harrison Ford and Shia LeBeouf in action, on the set of Indiana Jones 4. Indiana Jones 4, my dear sinners! Can you believe that? Oooohyeaah... Ms. Mysterious is officially psyched. =)

The end is near!

2007-06-24T01:33:00.000-06:00

Don't you love those little moments when everything seems to fall into place? Little things like finding money in your winter jacket, or listening your favorite song on the radio, just when you were thinking of that particular song, or even dreaming about someone you haven't seen in a while and the next day bumping into him or her? Yeah... all of that is nice. Yet, is has not much to do with today's post. Not really. I just felt like writing that. Anyway, let's move on.

Sometimes, when you least expect it, a good show turns brilliant. I just finished watching Doctor Who, "the sound of drums". It was really cool. Filled with energy, magic, good performances, and cute guys. Just think about it; John Simm, David Tennant and John Barrowman in the same room?
There IS a God up there!

We still have one more episode 'till this season ends, and by the way things are going, it looks like it's going to be pretty spectacular. For the last two episodes since Jack and the Master came back I've been really enjoying the dialogues about Gallifrey, Torchwood, Rose, the battle of Canary Wharf, the Last Great War and all those little details that make us geeks happy and make us suffer and curse the heavens every time each episode ends. Bless Russell T. Davies for this season finale.
As Life on Mars DI Sam Tyler would wisely point out, it's all in the details.

Anyway, one more week 'till the end of the world! Have fun 'till then, my dear sinners =)

In Spielberg we trust!

2007-06-22T03:25:00.000-06:00

Yup, Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones, once again. Yes, they just started filming. Yes, I'm really excited. It brings back so many memories, you know? I remember freakin' out the first time I saw everyone melting as they were opening the ark on Raiders of the Lost Ark. I remember the total and absolute fear when the heart of that Indian guy was being taken out in the ceremony, as Indy, Willie and Short Round watched. Then I remember being old enough to go to the movie theater with my best friends (plus my friend's dad), to watch Indiana Jones and the last crusade... I went back and watched it for another 6 times , plus God knows how many other times I watched it back home when the video finally came out. I knew (and still know) most of the dialogues, the music, the moves, everything. God, those were the days... Heroes saving the day....

(Ms. Mysterious feels a funny thing on her chest. I guess she still have feelings after all).

As usual, I'll keep my fingers crossed, and hope this will be an awesome adventure, the last and best of them all. Looking forward to see you soon Doctor Jones!

Back in 1973...

2007-06-20T17:45:00.000-06:00

She's as nervous as a very small nun at a penguin shoot
- Life on Mars

Yeah, that's me. Nervous. What's going to happen today? What will I watch that will make me laugh, that will make my heart race, that will make me feel alive?

Let me explain. Yesterday was an great day, in terms of TV shows. I finally watched Doctor Who's Utopia, (awesome, but I'll rant about it later). The thing is, Mr. Marshmallow and I finished watching Life on Mars second season. I know, I know, this is old news for most of you, since the show ended a while ago. But for us, humble blog gods, it was a new experience. I suppose I don't need to say how AMAZING this show is. It's funny, exciting, intelligent. I won't say more. I fell in love with both DCI Hunt and DC Tyler. And to be honest, I'm not quite sure I want to watch the spin off, Ashes to Ashes, to be set on the 80's. There are things that you just have to let go. Life on Mars ended on a high note, after two seasons. Yeah, I would love to keep on watching it for years and years, but it probably would have lost part of what makes it so special. It is one of those shows that need to end. You need to end with the mystery, you know? And avoid doing the same mistake they did with shows like Lost for example, or even The Prisoner (don't kill me, just think of the last episodes that lost a little bit of what the show was supposed to be) Is not like Doctor Who that can keep going forever and ever.

Anywa, this phrase stuck in the back of my mind, and I can't stop hearing it
You know you're alive when you can feel....

How alive am I? How alive do you feel now? How much of our lives we spent sedated, just following a routine, pretending we're living?... I feel I'm in a coma, and the only time I see light is when my mind wonders beyond the limits of this life, beyond the confinement of the years, the hours, the days of life, beyond the limited space we fill, beyond the rules, beyond what life should be. I guess I mean, when I dream. I've always been convinced that at night, we leave this world and live a second life in other realms... A life much more confusing maybe (is that even possible?), but definitely more interesting. I'm ranting uncontrollably now. You see? That's why I stopped blogging. I can't control any of my ideas, and most of them make no sense at all. Hopefully no one will read this, and I won't be sent to my padded cell. I don't know, I guess I'm just tired from looking life from the outside. I guess I just have to find a better way to make this the dream world, the life over the rainbow.

Anyway, I'm off now. Enough ranting for one day.

I'm filming in the rain (8), what a glorious day, and I'm happy again (8)

2007-06-07T05:15:00.000-06:00

The euphoria is wearing off now... Two nights ago I was part of a film crew. Nothing fancy, just a short film. But still... It was quite an experience. I started last Sunday. We would be working from 5 pm to 5 am. Could I last two days like that? Working under the rain, freezing, just trying to follow instructions, trying to learn, while I pretended I didn't suck that much? Would they kick me out of the set as soon as they realized that I had no idea what I was doing?

Well, I survived. I lasted long enough to hear the most awesome words you can hear while shooting: "It's a wrap!"

I started out as Gaffer. I had no idea how to do it properly. But nothing exploded, no one got electrocuted. So I guess I wasn't THAT bad. (I was bad, but it could have been worse). On the second day (which I ended up arriving to the apartment at 7am), I started as gaffer, but since a lot of people failed to go, I ended up being Assistant to the DP (Director of photography). The man knew what he was doing. He was really good. I wasn't. At moments I thought he would wrap a cable around my neck, and just let me hanging there, under the rain. But again, I survived.

Now I'm dying to do it again. You see, all my life I've loved watching movies. To be honest, half of my conversations are about that. The other half about music. So... what if someone could actually do what he or she loves? What if you could actually be part of something great, that will probably survive the test of time?

Music and movies, my dear sinners... For me, those are the things that define the beauty of each generation. Or the horrors. Or the fears. Music and movies can tell the truth... Of course we're talking about the real pieces of art, not just ANY movie or song. I know...there are tons of thing that can do that. Tell the story of a generation I mean. But for me. those two things are the most direct, easy way to connect with humanity. With the future, with the past.

And no, of course I'm not saying that the short film I worked in was that important. It was good. And that's fine for me now. It might be the beginning of a whole new adventure... and if it's not, I'll still have the memories of yours truly, Ms. Mysterious, standing in the rain, soaked, freezing, holding the clapper in her hands, and thinking , "damn, it can't get better than this"
=)

Stuck in the seventies? Like Super suits? Love Timelords? It's all here!

2007-06-02T04:46:00.000-06:00

Hmm... Got some time to spare? Dying to see some videos from the upcoming Iron Man flick? Well, here you have them. No, you won't see Iron Man flying, or closeups of Downey in the suit, or anything particularly interesting... But it's better than nothing. You get to see the helmet up close though.. and it looks PREEETTY COOL.

So, what have I been up to this weekend? Not much... YET. Tomorrow in the afternoon I'll be helping out in a short film, here in Kangarooland. I'll be a gaffer. No, I have no idea exactly what I'll do. So, if you happen to see the news and you find there was a fire, due to an electrical problem while students filmed a short in Brisbane, Australia, think of yours truly. Oh yeah... it's going to be quite an experience hehe =)

WHOA! I just realized something. I won't be able to watch Doctor Who tomorrow night!!!!!!!! DAAAAAAAAAAAMN IT!!! For those of you, innocent creatures who haven't tasted the pleasures of life, Doctor Who is THE sci fi show. Cheesy, kind of stupid sometimes, but a hell of a ride. I could live watching that, TORCHWOOD and Life on Mars for the rest of my life. (ok, maybe not THE rest of my life, but you get the idea.) God bless the BBC!!!

Enough with the useless ranting now. See ya later, sinners.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away...

2007-05-26T05:51:00.000-06:00

The date: May 25th, 1977. Many people's lives changed on that day. Star Wars was born. It was out there. The fantasy, the magic, the way we could see movies, or even live our lives, would be change forever... I could start ranting forever about all my Star Wars related memories, but I'm pretty sure no one wants to hear them haha. So I'll just say one thing. Happy Anniversary Star Wars!!.. May the future be bright (I'm sure you'll have a future if you just NOT include stupid kids and gungans). Let's wait and see what Lucas has in mind. 'Cause he has something in mind and he'll say it in the Star Wars Celebration IV event in LA. I still have hope, SW will find it's way again.
Later, sinners. And...Do I even have to say it? May the Force be with you.

And you think you're so clever, so classless and free...

2007-05-23T06:35:00.000-06:00

I've had this song stuck in my head all week long. Great song by John Lennon, great poet of our times. Oh, and Green Day decided to make a new version of the song, which I must admit is not bad at all. Anyway, that's beyond the point. The point is that I just love the song, and the lyrics say a lot of what I've had in my head lately...

WORKING CLASS HERO

As soon as your born they make you feel small,
By giving you no time instead of it all,
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool,
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
Then they expect you to pick a career,
When you can't really function you're so full of fear,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV,
And you think you're so clever and classless and free,
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.

There's room at the top they are telling you still,
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
If you want to be like the folks on the hill,
A working class hero is something to be.
A working class hero is something to be.
If you want to be a hero well just follow me,
If you want to be a hero well just follow me.

Tonight, she writes again...

2007-05-20T08:11:00.000-06:00

I haven't posted anything in almost a month. In fact, I've hardly written anything at all. No ideas, no stories, no diary entries, no ranting about TV shows, no pseudo creative moments, nothing. Maybe I'm just afraid of feeling. Of failing. Of no one listening. Of no one believing, not even myself.
I'm writing now, and it doesn't really makes sense anything I'm saying, does it?...
Maybe I should just pretend everything will turn out fine. Maybe I should keep believing that this is just one of those low times in someone's life. Maybe I should just believe in anything, in everything. Even in myself.
Maybe I should just DO something about it. Maybe I should try harder. If I don't, maybe I should just let it all go, and let everything die. Maybe nothing is meant to make sense from now on. Maybe the truth of the world or of myself finally caught up with me. Maybe tomorrow I'll wake up from this imperfect dream. Maybe... Maybe...

Join Dumbledore's Army!

2007-04-24T17:53:00.000-06:00

I can't wait to see this movie. Just check the new international trailer (a little bit different from the first one that popped up on the web), and correct me if I'm wrong, but it just looks awesome. Yeah, the book wasn't that good, basically because it was too bloody long, so the magic of the movies is that they can skip all the boring bits and go straight to the cool stuff. Oh, if only life was like this... :P

Behold, the Joker!

2007-04-23T06:06:00.000-06:00

Yup, that creepy dude it's (in theory), Heath Ledger as the Joker. No, it's not an official pic yet, but I think this is the real deal. Toootally creepy. It's official; Ledger's Joker will give me nightmares.

Meet Smith and Jones

2007-04-01T06:35:00.000-06:00

After a long, endless week just counting the days, hours and minutes 'till Doctor Who's new season, I finally got to see the new episode "Smith and Jones". Sadly, it wasn't that good.
First of all I have to admit that it was hard for me to say goodbye to Rose. She represented the common people. The underdog that was stuck in an uneventful life, waiting for a miracle to happen. That miracle was the Doctor. He basically saved her from her life, and showed her the everything she could become.

So now we meet Martha Jones. Freema Agyeman seems really nice, don't get me wrong, my problem on this first episode is with her character. Martha's an upper middle class medicine student. Besides the normal annoying situations most people have to deal with their families, her life seems to be running smoothly. She's smart and when the Doctor meets her and realizes that, he treats her very much as his equal. Now, there's nothing wrong with that, but, putting aside the fact that the Doctor is a Timelord, 900 and something years old and has an amazing brain, well, it's kind of hard to believe at first glance. With Rose, he respected her, even loved her, but you could always tell that he was aware of his limitations as a human. On the other hand, Rose taught the Doctor how to enjoy himself, how to trust people and even how to forgive himself in a way for the destruction of the time lords. There was an knowledge exchange between the both of them. They filled the gaps. That's why the relationship was so perfect.

I know it's too soon to be certain, but by watching the first episode (episode which in theory introduces the new character as much as possible), I asked myself, what is Martha's character bringing to the relationship? They defined she's almost as smart as the Doctor. She wasn't THAT shocked to learn that he's an alien. She's not getting saved or anything, she's just hanging around with him. On the other hand, the Doctor seems quite past over Rose. He seems calmed, not the tortured soul we saw on the last Christmas episode, or even the previous seasons. He seems healed and in control of his emotions, so why the hell would he need anyone? What will Martha's role be?

So yeah, I was expecting a little bit more in this episode. Let's face it, we love watching aliens and ghosts and how the Doctor saves the day every time (except this time, when he just managed to disconnect some cables and wait 'till the Judoons send everyone back to earth..huh..), but what we really makes this TV show unique are the main characters. How the deal with problems, how the connect with each other, even though one is an powerful alien and the other a common human. We need to see how the Doctor deals with pain, and loneliness, because that is what makes it more real, and that's what makes us connect. And then we want to see that flawed alien kick everyone's butt, and save the world day after day, with the help of a primitive, yet special human companion.

I know, I'll wait and see the relationship develope. And yes, after all my annoying ranting, I can't wait to see the next Doctor Who's episode. Damn. It's going to be a long week again.

Galactus, Bond and Indy walk into a bar...

2007-04-01T04:59:00.000-06:00

Finally, some cool stuff to rant about. Here we go:

Galactus voice in Fantastic Four: the rise of the silver surfer, will be none other than James Earl Jones. Oh yeah. Just imagine Vader with someone else's voice? No way. So yeah, he will give a little extra to the FF2 movie. Things are looking promising. No, it won't be a masterpiece, but at least I guess it will be really entertaining.

John Rhys Davies will reprise his role as Sallah, Indy's best friend, in Indiana Jones 4. Plus, there's a rumor that Cate Blanchet's character is Willie Scott's daughter. (Remember Kata Capshaw in Indiana Jones and the temple of Doom? Yup, that's Willie). That might be interesting.

And last, but not least... there's a rumor that Timothy Dalton will have a minor role, but important role in next Bond movie... It seems Judi Dench's character will die and Timothy Dalton will replace her as M. Daaaaamn. I love Dalton, but Dench has definitely being the best M ever. Let's wait and see what happens.

UPDATE: All of the things you just read, are just part of someone's twisted mind. It's April's Fools day. And I fell for it. Damn damn damn. ARRRGH. Hello, my name is Ms. Mysterious and I'm an idiot. *sigh*

Muggles, rejoice!

2007-03-31T06:12:00.000-07:00

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows -This beauty will be the last cover you'll ever see from the Harry Potter saga. Try not to cry. Not just yet. The time is coming to say goodbye to our favorite magician. Do you think he'll die? Will he beat Voldemort, survive and ultimately become a porn star? Any thoughts?

Meet my friend Tony

2007-03-31T06:04:00.000-07:00

Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, ladies and gentlemen. Yup, this is the first pic from the Iron Man movie, currently being filmed and to be released on May 2, 2008. Oh yeah. =)

I CAN'T ....TAKE IT.... ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2007-03-21T19:42:00.000-07:00

8 DAYS
25 HOURS
18 MINUTES
For DOCTOR WHO!!

DAMN DAMN DAMN! And I couldn't help it and I watched the second teaser and and.. DAMN! DAMN DAMN!! It's so fracking cool. And something weird happens. And I just ruined that for me. If you want to see what I'm talking about, click here. Otherwise, avoid it.
Is it March 31st already? Where's the Tardis when you need it? WAHHHHHHHH!

RISE!

2007-03-10T20:11:00.000-07:00

Sweet ...

I have an appointment with the Doctor

2007-03-04T15:19:00.000-07:00

Rejoice, sinners, for HE's returning! On march 31st, we'll finally stop suffering and have our Doctor back! Yeah, yeah, I'm talking about Doctor Who, who will return with his new companion (sniff sniff), to make our lives much more fun and interesting.
Just a couple of weeks, sinners... In the meantime, you can watch David Tennant's and Freema Agyeman Doctor Who's video diaries here and here.

Yo sinners... he did it

2007-02-22T05:48:00.000-07:00

Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!

- Rocky Balboa (2006)
Is Stallone a good writer or what?

I FINALLY got to see Rocky Balboa. They are finally showing it in Kangarooland (yeah, almost 2 months later after they released it everywhere else), and maaaan, it was worth the wait. I just loved it. I'll say it in a few words: Stallone is an amazing writer. Really. 30 years have passed since the first Rocky, and he still knows perfectly what each of the original characters would say in any situation. The characters have grown, they're older, but still, they're as alive as the first time you saw them. They're old friends you didn't know how much you missed until you saw them again.
Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. I know, I'm ranting, in the middle of the night, about a hero, a made up character, that is just so frackin inspiring that I just have to write something about him. About how I met him again after so many years, and how he inspired me, one more time.

Everyone thought Rocky was going to be a flop. That he was crazy, but as Marie tells Rocky, It doesn't matter how this looks to other people. If this is something you gotta do, then you do it. Fighters fight.

Stallone did it. And not just he pulled it off, but he ended Rocky's story on a high note. For that Mr. Stallone, I salute you. Thanks for giving us a hero, one last time.

Crazy for Trucks

2007-02-12T05:31:00.000-07:00

And talking about guitarists, I was completly hipnotized by Derek Trucks, currently touring with Clapton. Yup, he was on the list of the 100 greatests guitarists of all time by Rolling Stone magazine in 2003 (being the youngest of the list btw), and now he made the cover, along with John Mayer and John Frusciante, in The New Guitar Gods article. The guy works magic using his glass slide. Check the guys jamming together here.

Got me on my knees!

2007-02-11T16:17:00.000-07:00

You see that person in the picture playing the guitar? Well, that non other than Eric Clapton!!!! Mr. Marshmallow and I went to his concert last week. The guy, and all of his band are just amazing. The best moment? Layla, of course. Sorry, can't help it. Anyway, hail Mr. Clapton!!

All hail the big red cheese!

2007-02-11T04:30:00.000-07:00

How wickedly cool was this comic? Shazam! - The Monster Society of Evil by Bone creator Jeff Smith is exactly what the character deserves. Since everyone and their imaginary friend has already written about how good this comic was, that and the missus hasn't read it yet, I will refrain from spoiling this issue. But do yourselves a favor and read it... The artwork is light and fantastic, while feeling magical as well as just a little bit creepy, not too much though, just enough to make it really enjoyable. I'm babling I know... :)

So if Warner Bros does decide to get off it's butt and actually make a Shazam movie, this is the comic that they should be looking at, not, the really, terrible, awful, and so far, not fun at all, Trials of Shazam, which, I hope, disapears from the face of the earth as soon as it is finished, and we get someone like oh, say... Kurt Busiek to retcon the whole thing away.

So, to summarize:
Shazam! - The Monster Society of Evil : AWESOME
Trials of Shazam: AWFUL

p.s. I promise to fix the blog soon :)

Nothing's going to change my world (8)

2007-02-05T16:04:00.000-07:00

Nothing like the promise of a good movie to make you keep believing in tomorrow. Check the trailer for Across the Universe, with Evan Rachel Wood, John Sturgess, Eddie Izzard and even Bono (which is probably less than a minute in the movie, but what the hell)

Imagine Moulin Rouge in the Vietnam War era. That with a dose of fantasy a la Big Fish. I guess. Okay, I have no idea what to compare it to, just watch the trailer!
I have the feeling this will become one of those very special movies in my life... We'll see.

Thoughts of a confused Ms. Mysterious

2007-02-01T21:09:00.000-07:00

Nah, today I'm not in a dramatic mood. I've had my share of depressions this week. It's beautiful rainy, Friday, and I was reading this interview made to Roger Waters, Pink Floyd's main writer from 1965 till 1985, when he left the band. Anyway, the guy gave a concert a couple of weeks ago, and reading his interview I came across this:

“Maybe it’s because when I was 29 (...) I realised that I wasn’t in some kind of rehearsal for a life that was going to start at a point in the future. I suddenly got that it had already started, that we only have one shot..."

I don't know, I guess it just hit right on the spot. The thoughts I've been dealing with, the rage, the fear, the sadness, the frustration. That phrase defines it all. I've always felt as if life hadn't started yet. I felt that I had all the time in the world. Time to chose my path, time to learn new things, time to succeed. And suddenly I realized, after 29 years that that's not the case. I was still deciding what I wanted to be when I grow up, and I realized I'm all grown up now. And I wonder, have I lost that ONE shot to do something with my life?

I've been struggling with myself, with the world, trying to decide if I should keep on believing in second chances, in fresh new starts. If I should think that dreams come true no matter how old you are... That you can always make up for your past mistakes. And reality has been pulling me down. I haven't lost faith completely, but I'm close. Some days are better than others I suppose. Today is one of those days that I just allow myself not to think. Just for the weekend, I hide in my make believe, perfect little world where I'm immortal, where time doesn't exists... There's nothing to haunt me there, not until reality catches up with me, on Sunday night.

What's killing me all the time is that phrase, that phrase that I can never get out of my mind, that just echoes from the depths of my brain, that will haunt me 'till I die;

There's nothing worst than wasted talent.

(From DeNiro's A Bronx Tale)

And to realize, that whatever talent I have, or had, has been wasted, it just destroys me. Over and over and over again.

So, is there hope for everyone? No matter their age? No matter their past mistakes? Can you truly start from scratch and become someone different? Better? Will you be able to do it? Will the world give you a chance?

Anyway, I guess today was a good day to rant about this. I just had to take it off my chest.
Have a good weekend my dear sinners, wherever and whoever you are...

Mischief managed!

2007-02-01T20:47:00.000-07:00

It's official, my dear sinners: Harry Potter and the Deadly Hallows, will out on July 21, 2007. Yup, this is the seventh and last book EVER from the HP saga... That's 'till J.K. decides to get even richer by allowing other authors to keep on writing books about Harry Potter, just like they did with the Star Wars saga. Hehehe.
How I'd wish to be in London by the time the book gets out... So, if you're living there and you're not inviting me... Cruciatus!!
Damn you damn you! Nah, just kidding. Who would want to listen to J.K. Rowling read some chapters of her book, or to watch witches and wizards in line outside the bookstores, or even ride the Hogwarts Express? Not me!
*sob*

Yo ho

2007-01-28T15:23:00.000-07:00

Oh, I really miss Captain Jack. Is it May already?... sigh. Anyway, check the new pics from Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's end.

Mexico! Mexico!

2007-01-24T15:55:00.000-07:00

Ms. Mysterious read who the 2007 Academy Awards Nominees were, and couldn't help being proud. Five Mexicans were nominated this time. FIVE! First time in our history!
Best Movie - Babel
Best Director - Alejandro Gonzales Iñarritu (Babel)
Best Screenplay- Guillermo Arriaga (Babel)
Best Foreign Picture - Pan's Labyrinth
Best Supporting Actress - Adriana Barraza (Babel)

Plus Best Film Editing and Best Musical Score- Babel (yeah, neither of those guys are Mexican, but they had a Mexican Director, so we'll include them in the post ;))

It's good to know that someone is making something out of their lives... Anyway, time for Ms. Mysterious to rethink her life. Again. And again. And again.

Mr. Bellamy

2007-01-22T16:54:00.000-07:00

Matt Bellamy, kicking a$$ in BDO. Yup, he's my future husband (although he doesn't know it yet):P

Ms. Mysterious' day out

2007-01-22T15:35:00.000-07:00

Tuesday morning and Ms. Mysterious is still sore after spending a day under the unforgiving Aussie sun, jumping and shouting and singing with all her might. Yup, I'm talking about the Big Day Out Festival, that took place in the Gold Coast this last Sunday.
What can I say? It was awesome and terrible at the same time. I'm not an expert on music festivals, but I'll compare this one to my previous experience, year and a half ago, at the Austin City Limits...
....
Now that I think about it, the hell with comparisons! I'll just go straight to the point' BDO's organization was pretty bad. The had this "barricades" that were totally useless, plus just one entry point (and exit) to the area in front of the stage (the mosh area). There were two stages, one next to the other, and as one band was playing, the other stage was getting ready for the next band. That doesn't sound like a bad idea, but if you were watching one band, you couldn't go to the stage next to you. You had to go out the same way you came in, a tiny passage, which if you think about it, it's a really dangerous way to control the crowd. Mr. Marshmallow and I were "in line" to get inside the mosh area to watch the Killers, and subsequently, Muse, but after being almost 50 minutes stuck without moving, under the sun, thousands of people pushing and screaming wanting to get in, (some of them getting really violent after being drinking for half of the day) we decided to get the hell away from there. 30 minutes later or more, the organizers decided to finally tell the people that there was not room left in the mosh area. Thank you dear organizers! Duuuuuuuuuude! That's one of the things that you have to be able to say in time, before people start almost killing each other.
Anyway, to make the story short, we got a good spot close to the stage, on one side, just in front of the second barricade. (It was really good, cause I could really see the show.. no big guys in front of me heheh). Anyway, Ms. Mysterious was more than happy watching MUSE. They are absolute gods. Really. What better way to start the show than with Knights of Cydonia? (yup, one of my favorite songs from their last album). They kept on going with songs like Starlight, New Born, Supermassive Black Hole, Hysteria, Map of the Problematique, Invincible... to finally wrap it up with Take a bow. Matt, Chris and Dom where superb. Period. And, yeah, I must admit that the one that really gets your attention is Matt Bellamy... That guys knows how to play. DAAAMN!

Anyway, after that we left BDO. And yeah, even though we were not really happy with the organization, acts such as My Chemical Romance, John Butler and Muse, made the day worthwhile. Anyway, Rock on, sinners. Let the music fill your lives and souls.

See you all later.

BDO!!!

2007-01-20T05:46:00.000-07:00

No one's gonna take me alive
The time has come to make things right
You and I must fight for our rights
You and I must fight to survive

- Muse (Knights of Cydonia)

Oh yeah.. A break from reality. Tomorrow's Big Day Out!!! Time to have watch perform some of my favorite bands such as Muse and My Chemical Romance... Who knows? Someone might even adopt me as their groupie! *Ms. mysterious smiles thinking of the possibilities...*

Back to square one

2007-01-18T15:34:00.000-07:00

Three continents in one day and a half, and I'm finally back in Kangarooland. Don't mind the crappy food they offer in certain airlines, or the lack of space (and oxygen) that you have to put up with for hours and hours during your flight. No, no, there are far things worse than that. Your BUTT. Yes, my dear sinners, your beloved Ms.Mysterious suffered a severe desbuttisation (yes, that's an invented word, so sue me) . Anyway, it's been almost four days since I got back, and it's time to get in the ring again.

I wish I had a perfect plan, but that's not the case. I watch my friends back in Numbtown and I'm so proud of them. They've found their place in this world. They have stability that I just can dream of having. Yeah, yeah, I know nobody's life is perfect, but still, it helps a lot to have an idea of what you're good at, and actually being able to do it.

This year I'll be 30, and everyday that passes I feel more like a teenager. Lost, but at the same time, living in a world full of possibilities and opportunities. I still believe I can be anything I want to be when I grow up, but the thing is that, I'm all grown up. Can someone about to reach her thirties still dream of being someone else? Can we start all over, leaving behind all the mistakes from our past? Who decided that you're too old to dream and to reinvent yourself over and over again?

Anyway, just ranting on this beautiful Friday morning... Have a nice weekend my dear sinners. I know mine will be great. I'll be going to the Big Day Out, and watch the performances of Muse, My chemical Romance, Jet, the Killers and much more... Hehehehe. Who knows? Maybe I'll become a groupie and travel around the world. In this world, there's only one truth:
Anything can happen.

Round 2 - Minus 1

2007-01-12T20:25:00.000-07:00

One day before I leave Numbtown... Winter vacations are almost over for me, and it will be time to get in the ring, once more. What will the next year bring? Will it be as hard as the last one? Will overcome my fear and my problems? Will I finally DO something with my life? Or will it be the end of a dream, of an era, of a relationship?
I have no idea what's going to happen, but in the meantime I have just three words:

BRING IT ON, motherjumpers!

(ok, those were three words and an extra bizarre and diplomatic one to say mother#$%) :P

Thanks for the music...

2006-12-31T00:33:00.000-07:00

I've reached a conclusion: Life is much better when it has a soundtrack. Music keeps you company in both the good and bad times. This year, lots of albums helped me survive. But don't worry, since I'm too lazy I'll just tell you my top 4 (no order in particular):

Muse- Black Holes and Revelations
My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade
David Gilmour - On an island
Wolfmother - Wolfmother
Pearl Jam - Pearl Jam

Why these albums? They just reached me in the way I need to be reached at the moment. They filled my soul. Period. And why top 5 and not top 10? Well... If I did 10, I would keep on going with 20, or 30. There were so many good albums, so many songs that just get to you at the right moment. The Kooks (inside in/inside out), Keane (under the iron sea), The Strokes (first impressions of earth), Arctic Monkeys (whatever people say I am..), Gnarls Barkley (st. elsewhere), The Killers (Sam's town), John Mayer (continuum) and so on...
I can't wait to keep discovering new artists, new music, at the same time I go back and listen again and again to legends such as Bowie, Led Zeppelin, Jeff Beck, Johnny Cash, Pink Floyd... The list is endless.
Anyway, as I said before life tastes so much better with the music. Hail to all of you, oh musical gods and sinners! For remembering us that life must be lived with one thing above all:
Passion.

Sweet dreams, sinners. Ms. Mysterious' time to go to bed...

Nothing like a Christmas with the Doctor...

2006-12-30T10:32:00.000-07:00

Merry Christm...what? It's almost new year? Damn. Okay, I've been busy, you know? Someone has to eat all those delicious sweets! Anyway, I know it's kind of late, but better late than never. I hope all of you had a good Xmas party, got a lot of gifts, love and yummy food. Having said that... DAMN YOU if you got to see Doctor Who on the 25th!
Don't mind Ms. Mysterious and the fact that she can't watch it because she doesn't live in paradise city (That's London, or any place in the UK for that matter). Nooo, Ms. Mysterious had to use her magical powers to get her hands on The Runaway Bride... But since it's Christmas (or was), and I watched it last night, I'm in a very forgiving mood (yeah, that means I'm not going to turn you into a mouse or something- yet)

So, I LOVED watching Doctor Who again. I missed the Doctor, and the episode was a lot of fun (not the best episode ever, but still, fun) Having said that... I MISS ROSE.
WAH WAH WAH

Don't worry, I'll get over it. It has just been 6 months since we said goodbye to that awesome character *sob*

Don't worry, I won't get into details. I guess by know you've probably read a couple of Doctor Who reviews, (or you have NO idea of what I'm taking about- one of the best sci-fi shows ever, sinners!) so, I'll save myself for the next season - that btw, starts in March *sob*. But I'm not THAT sad. We still have Torchwood season finale, with sexy John Barrowman (and yeah, the show is getting better and better), and soon we'll have Sarah Jane Adventures!

So, I guess next year won't be as crappy as this one haha. We'll have plenty of Doctor Who's world to keep us company during the dark times.
...
Okay, just kidding, it wasn't THAT bad, it was just so damn HARD!. Still, there's hope in the future. Sunrise comes after a dark night, right?

Nice to meet you, Mr. Silver Surfer...

2006-12-22T12:47:00.000-07:00

Don't deny it; It DOES look promising...

No, you are not going to get rid of me.

2006-12-21T12:28:00.000-07:00

I know, I know, it's been a while since my last post, but I've been quite busy, traveling from Kangarooland to Ninjaland, to Numbtown. (Loong story) But yeah, I've been so busy, that even when I finally got the chance to watch Casino Royale, I didn't even post anything about it! And that, my dear sinners, is unforgivable. Don't worry, I won't torture you with another review on the movie (I know that by this time you've read tons). I'll just say that BOND RULES. (and yup, we like Daniel Craig without t- shirt)
Huh.... I guess that sums it up. Now we can go to the next topics in hand.

- JK Rowling announced the name of her seventh and last Harry Potter book (Ms. Mysterious cries). The book will be called Harry Potter and the Deadly Hallows. Nope, we still have no idea when it'll be published. *sob*

- Fantastic Four 2 teaser seems to be... good. Yup. Amazingly enough, there's still a chance the movie will be way way better than the last one (hey, and I DID have fun with the first one). So, let's keep our fingers crossed.

- If you haven't seen the Transformers trailer drop everything you're doing and watch it NOW. It looks soooooo cool. I like the whole Terminator look the movie has. It's Michael Bay, at least we know it will be entertaining.

So, I guess that's pretty much it for the time being. Only a couple of days left 'till Christmas, and you know what that means. No, no, I'm not talking about the food, the parties or the gifts. This goes way beyond that. This is something more. Christmas is all about...
DOCTOR WHO!!!
Wheee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hehehehehe. Ok, I'll burn in hell for that. Catch you later sinners.

18 days, 2 hours, 5 minutes

2006-12-06T15:45:00.000-07:00

Just 18 days for Doctor Who, sinners!!!!!! Check the official website for some cute and useless Christmas goodies hehee. I WANT DOCTOR WHOOOOOOOOO!!

2006-12-01T22:06:00.000-07:00

Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down

Lazy Saturday afternoon... Ms. Mysterious watches. Ms. Mysterious listens. Ms. Mysterious hails the man in black.

The fantasticar!!

2006-11-30T15:42:00.000-07:00

Yup, it looks niiiiiice. Hey, I did enjoy the first movie (please don't throw rocks at me). Yes, it could have been MUCH MUCH MUCH better, but at least it was entertaining and not pretentious as Superman Returns. Plus they got right the relationship between Johnny and Ben, and that my dear sinners, makes bearable anything else. Anyway, I still have hopes in FF2. Let's keep our fingers crossed. Again.

2006-11-29T19:22:00.000-07:00

Robot Chicken - Giraffe

I'm addicted to Robot Chicken now, dammit!

RAVING RABBIDS!!!!

2006-11-28T17:03:00.000-07:00

You HAVE to watch this video (Rayman Rabbids attack). Oh yeaaaah, this cute and dangerous creatures are from Rayman Raving Rabbids, one of the new games for Wii!
Gotta love them. Can I have my wii NOW? Please please please please?

UPDATE: For those of you that are REALLY lazy, here's a direct link to you tube. Happy now? WATCH IT, Sinner! Though I warn you. It might be addictive.

HP 5 teaser trailer!!

2006-11-20T16:45:00.000-07:00

Finally, here's the teaser trailer for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah!!! Everything just looks AWESOME. *Ms. Mysterious performs her happy dance* Just 233 days, 6 hours and 17 minutes to go, sinners!! :P

10 seconds! 10 seconds!

2006-11-17T18:04:00.000-07:00

Less than 10 seconds of the new HARRY POTTER traileeeeeer! Ooooh this is going to be good. The kids are all grown up, ready to fight Voldemort. Even though this is not one of my favorite HP books, I can't wait to see the scenes with Alan Rickman, Gary Oldman and David Thewlis. And the fight at the end of the book?! Priceless. Oh yeah, things are darker for Harry... =)

It ain't over 'till it's over!

2006-11-16T05:27:00.000-07:00

ROCKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Daaaamn, I'm dying to watch this movie (yeah Rocky Balboa it's his name sinners! Bow to him!) Yeah yeah yeah. Watch the new and final trailer ever!

Something wicked this way comes (8) - Part 5

2006-11-16T05:16:00.000-07:00

The first HP 5 teaser poster!!! God, choosing Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort was just BRILLIANT. Anyway, get ready for the teaser trailer that will premiere this weekend with "Happy feet". No, I refuse to watch a movie about dancing penguins. I'll just wait for it to be online ..muahahahaha!! OH YEAH. Something wicked this way comes (8)!

Patience sinners, He's coming...

2006-11-14T16:27:00.000-07:00

Hail Bond! Just a couple of days 'till we see Casino Royale. In the meantime, rejoice watching all the trailers of every Bond movie ever made in the last 45 years.

Not enough? Check these lists of the best and worst Bond girls over the years. Personally, I don't agree with some of their choices, such as Carey Lowell, aka Pam Bouvier (License to kill) as one of the 10 worst. She could fight, shoot a gun, fly a plane, and she even saved Bond a couple of times. What's not cool about that? On the other hand, Tanya Roberts aka Stacey Sutton (From a view to a kill) surely deserves to be no. 1 as the WORST and most annoying Bond girl EVER. Totally useless.

And what about the 10 best Bond girls? Michelle Yeoh aka Wai Lin (Tomorrow Never dies), Carol Bouquet aka Melina Havelock (For your eyes only) and Famke Jansen aka Xenia Onatopp (Goldeneye) definitely should be on the top 5... Yeah, I love Bond girls that are not just damsels in distress. So, sue me.

Anyway, have fun watching that, plus all the extras you can find...
Soon the wait will be over. Hold on sinners, Bond is coming soon.

Mr. Marshmallow's very own pic of Eddie Vedder, at last night's concert. Yeaaaaah!

Lazy Sunday morning...

2006-11-11T17:43:00.000-07:00

Ms. Mysterious' just woke up after watching last time an AWESOME Pearl Jam concert (the second one in a year, since last November I saw them back in Mexico), so I'll be a Ms. Mysterious of few words today:

- As you probably know, the new Spiderman 3 trailer's out. Looks promising...
- Jack Palance died. Creepy dude, rest in peace.
- The next Superman movie will be called: Superman: the Man of Steel. No, I'm not eager to watch it after the Returns fiasco.

- Saw Flags of our Fathers the other day, and even though I love Clint Eastwood and the movie has some really amazing scenes (it's impossible not to be touched by the last scene on the beach), I got to say that the film doesn't cut it. Amongst my complaints, the main ones lay on the edition, which is inconsistent at times, and in the story, which doesn't lead you where it should... Anyway, watch it and decide for yourselves.

Aaaand... ahm.. that's it. I'm to tired to think of anything else. Oh and one last thing: I'm thinking of changing my name to Mrs. Vedder... What do you think about that?

Jim Carrey should really consider stop doing all those crappy comedy movies and do some serious stuff. For me his best works have been The Truman show, The majestic and Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind. His next movie is The number 23, and by the look of it, it might be one of those cool Carrey movies. Watch the creepy trailer!

You know his name...

2006-11-04T18:26:00.000-07:00

Bond, my dear sinners. Watch the new video, with Chris Cornell's song, "You know my name"
I'm still a little undecided whether I like this song or not. It's not the best Bond song, yet is not the worst. I would have used more metals to emphasize the classic Bond theme, but that's just me. Yup, I'm a sucker for Bond. Anyway, can't wait to see the mooovieeeee! Bond Bond Bond!

Wii came, Wii saw, Wii kicked some a$$!

2006-11-04T16:43:00.000-07:00

Ms. Mysterious reporting from Down Under. It was a dark night, and Mr. Marshmallow and I were on a secret quest; to be the first in Brisbane to play the new Nintendo Wii. We arrived to the secret location, where there were other 35 lucky bastards, just waiting for the moment we would all be lead to the magic room...
Finally the wait was over. We signed some papers promising we wouldn't take pictures or video, we sold our souls, and arrived to a room with 8 Wii consoles. It was time to play! Our first game was Wario Warez: Smooth Moves, and it was the perfect way to start. The game it's really silly (but it's one of those games that will be awesome to play when everyone's drunk at a party- sadly not me), anyway what was impressive was the way the remote (wiimote!) responded. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
So, to make the story short, we played from Tennis, Bowling (from Wii Sports). Air Hockey and Duck Hunt (Wii Play), and Excite Truck, Zelda and Wario Warez. The one that I like the most was Tennis. It's sooo much fun. Yeah yeah, I know Zelda rules, but you're talking to someone that's never finished a game. EVER.
In all Nintendo gave us a fun night, filled with games and yummi food. I would have liked a t-shirt that said "I played Wii and you haven't", but I guess I can live without having one. Thaaaanks Nintendooooooo. Can I have my Wii now? Wii sports and wii music? Pleeeease?

About my birthday...

2006-10-29T15:34:00.000-07:00

Twenty- nine years old. My first year far away from home. I can't lie and say I didn't miss my birthday parties. But what the hell, this year wasn't bad, it was just different. I did some of the things I love the most; kicking people, watching movies and being with Mr. Marshmallow. So, I guess I can't complain, can I? It was pretty good... although the day after I began with my pseudoanalitycalmood, thinking about my life, and the things I haven't done this year. Goals I haven't reached, or worst yet, how I have no clear goals. How sometimes I feel more lost than ever. How I have no idea who I should be by now. What to do when you need some words of wisdom? In my case, I just read again a birthday card one of my best friends sent me. It said:

"may you always be yourself, keep struggling with that existencialistprone- dorkycomicstripfan- hardrockdrumvibratingrebel within you so you can always keep wandering for more, so you never settle and never never grow up."

So yeah, maybe that's who I am. A 29 year old girl that will never settle. That has no idea what to do next, 'cause there are so many beautiful things in life that she will always be looking for more. And more. A girl that enjoys geeky things that according to society, she should have stopped loving a long time ago.
I'll keep on dreaming, and hoping, as if time stood still, and as if every breath wasn't bringing me closer to my last... Do I have a Peter Pan complex? Maybe. I guess I'm just a wanderer, always trying to find the perfect sunset. The perfect moment. The perfect dream.
And yeah, sometimes I have to admit that I look around and seems that life's against me. My strength leaves me and I just want to give up. And I think of nothing else, but a single word: Simplicity. Keep your life simple. Love what you do. Do what you love. Never stop dreaming, even though as we grow older our paths seem to get darker and the world thinks we don't deserve to dream anymore.

So, have I bored you yet? Huh, I remember now.. NO ONE reads this blog! Hehehe.. Whatever. I guess I just wanted to rant for a while. See ya around, sinners! And thanks to my friends, for loving me just the way I am ( you know, sexy, smart and humble) :)

...forever young, I want to be forever young...

Wii are going to play Wii!

2006-10-29T02:20:00.001-07:00

Die of envy.. I just received a phone call from Nintendo (Kangarooland) and I've been invited to the WII PARTY!!! Yes, my dear sinners, Mr. Marshmallow and I will be playing Wii before anyone else here in Australia. WIIIIIII!!!!!!! I'm a lucky bastard. I'll keep you posted ;)

Go Adama!

2006-10-28T03:31:00.000-06:00

Okay, lots of things to write about, so little time. Forget about my birthday or about my thoughts on life, the universe and pizza, and let's just start with what really matters: Battlestar Galactica. Really, if you haven't seen this show, start watching it NOW. Last week's episode (Exodus pt 2) had one of the best sci fi battle scenes EVER. Adama and the Galactica falling through the atmosphere, fighting the cylons, and trying to save the human race? AWESOME. God, I wish I had seen that on the big screen. That's how you do a battle scene! Take that Lucas! Frak it! At least watch the whole Exodus Battle. I can't wait to see the new episode. (My kingdom for bandwidth!!) And yeah, I should have written this post a couple of days ago, but I've been busy, so sue me. Anyway, got to go now, Halloween party tonight. Gotta buy myself a chainsaw. Later, sinners!

US bans Vegemite

2006-10-23T16:38:00.000-06:00

Finally, some common sense! Read the article here. Sorry to all the aussie dudes that actually like vegemite. Having yeast extract with my toast is not my idea of a tasty breakfast.

Bow to the Lord of the Strings!

2006-10-19T17:22:00.000-06:00

Sinners! Rejoice yourselves with some Mexican talent. Check Luis Othon's songs here. He's into funk and rock, but he won't stop there, he'll entertain you with some really cool lounge grooves. He just started uploading his songs, so give him some time to build up his collection. Yup, he's a God. And yeah, I'm his groupie. Band aid. Whatever. =)

Yahoo Time capsule..

2006-10-17T04:53:00.000-06:00

"You and what matters to you. Preserved for eternity"
Leave your mark, whether it's a picture, a video, a comment, a list of things you love or you hate, a letter to your kids or to your long lost love. Anything. Be remembered. Be part of it.
Do I need to say more? Just read everything about it here.
Will anyone see it a hundred years from now? I don't now. I want to think that yeah, someone will take the time to read everything, to learn about the past. And perhaps they'll look at our stuff, our thoughts and see that we no matter the time they live in, no matter the place, we all care about the same stuff. We all share the same dreams, the same fears. We all crave for love and hope for better days. And most of all, we all want to make a difference. We all want to be remembered.

So hurry up. You only have 21 days to contribute. See you areound, sinners.

2006-10-16T17:17:00.000-06:00

Thanks Adrian ;)

Puedquito is so happy now...

2006-10-16T04:51:00.000-06:00

PIGGIIIIIEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!! Cute flying piggies =)

Music, half naked guys, and walking toasters

2006-10-14T20:41:00.000-06:00

It's official. I got my Big Day Out tickets.. wohooo! So let's see what the future awaits for Ms. Mysterious and the loyal Mr. Marshmallow. In November: Pearl Jam and Billy Joel. January: Muse, My Chemical Romance, Jet, The Killers, etc. February: Eric Clapton. Not too bad for a boring Mexican girl. And I'm just warming up, sinners...

Besides that, nothing interesting has happened really. I've been watching Smallville, which has turned booooring, but I'll keep watching just to see how many times they take the shirts of the sexy characters. Yup, that's all they've been doing lately. Last episode eeeeveryone took it off. (an no, they were not at the beach) Hehe.. so yeah, at least Ms. Mysterious is entertaining herself watching half-naked sexy guys, cause the idiot plot is getting dumber and dumber everyday. Having said this, I want to see what will they do with Ollie.

On the other hand we have Heroes, which is becoming one of my favorite shows of this season (let's see if they can keep up with the good stories), and Lost, entertaining and confusing as always. But the best of all is Battlestar Galactica. Really, if you haven't seen it, and your craving for a good sci-fi show, with smart plots, deep and complex characters, and great performances, this is it. It doesn't get better than this sinners...

Anyway, Ms. Mysterious gotta go. See ya later, sinners.

Dos - Deux - Ni - Two - Dul- Due

2006-10-11T16:19:00.000-06:00

And I guess our favorite number today is...
NUMBER TWO!!!

*applause*

Let me explain:

In exactly 2 months I'll be flying to Tokyo with my dear and patient Mr. Marshmallow, where we'll spend a great week there, and then we'll be heading to Numbtown to see my friends and family again .. Yeah. I have to admit that I miss my people. Some of them at least hehe. Although I guess I also miss pizzas. And cachiburros. And chamoyadas. And granielotes. And my gym. Damn. And hochos. And Mexican candies. Did I mention pizzas? =)

What else? In exactly 2 weeks it's my birthday. It'll be..Different. Lonelier? Nope, I won't do a party. I've never done parties in my life. (okay maybe when I was a kid), but I'll surely miss the good company of my friends. And the tacos. And the birthday cake. And the ice cream. And cleaning up after everyone has gon.....HEY! I won't have to clean anything! I won't have to wash dishe...
...
huh, though I do have to clean up and wash dishes every day now.
....
.....

WAHH! I miss being lazy! (yeah I know I still am, but I want to be even MORE) Oh, the weird decisions we make in life. As Bilbo used to say " It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to."

So what's this post about? Oh yeah. Number two. Ahm.. I have 2 eyes! and 2 ears! and 2 arms! 2 plush toys! You see, number TWO holds the secret of the universe! Okay, okay, let's get serious now. So again, what's this post about? I don't know. Maybe it's just one of those days when I think about my life here, and the life I left behind. I wonder what will happen when I get back. Will I want to go? Will I want to stay? Will everything be different? Will it be the same?

One thing is true. I don't regret coming here. And I apologize to Rob for stealing some his words of wisdom, but as he said, this is just another adventure. Yeah, sometimes it's hard, and sometimes everything just...clicks. What does the future holds? Nooo idea. But then again, that's what makes life interesting, don't you think?

My mom said I could!

2006-10-08T00:55:00.000-06:00

Ou lala! I think I like French commercials.... hehe... Enjoy.

It's punishment time!!

2006-10-07T20:55:00.000-06:00

Tito Ortiz vs. Ken Shamrock, for the THIRD time on October 10th. Who do you think will win this time? No idea what I'm talking about? Well, my dear sinners, enjoy yourselves by watching the first two massacre...ahm I mean fights, between these two Ultimate Fighting Legends.

Yo, sinners!

2006-10-06T17:49:00.000-06:00

GREAT poster, and yeah, this is one of those movies I can't wait to see... I saw the first Rocky almost 15 years ago, and I think I was too idiot to understand how good it was. But alas, I grew up a little bit, (and whilst I'm still an idiot but on a different scale) I watched again this year and maaaaan how I loved it! It's an awesome movie. And yeah, Stallone has lost his way since then, but I'm still confident that this will bring him back. Remember, it ain't over til'' it's over, sinners!

Conference Bike to the rescue!

2006-10-06T06:03:00.000-06:00

A tricycle pedaled by 7 riders? I want one!!! It just look as something that came out of The Prisoner series. Stupid, I know, but I just loved it. Just check it out =)

A feast for my eyes...

2006-10-05T06:56:00.000-06:00

I finally got to see the 300 trailer.
...
WOW.
It just looks... beautiful. Sorry, there's no other word that can describe it. The visuals are just amazing. The colors, the shadows, the lights. Even though lots of stuff is CGI, it just looks right. They're showing you a new, different, magical, barbaric world. It looks creative. Powerful. Sublime.
If you haven't seen it, watch it NOW.

Once again, Ms. Mysterious has spoken!

Sinners confirmed for Big Day Out 2007

2006-10-05T00:21:00.000-06:00

Oh yeah, oh yeah. Ms. Mysterious is one with the universe now. Finally, it has been confirmed that Muse, My Chemical Romance, Jet, The Killers and Tool have booked for Big Day Out, festival that yours truly will attend on January 21, 2007. Where? The Gold Coast, Kangarooland, of course.

Violent Femmes, Evermore and Eskimo Joe are some of the bands that are also playing in the festival.

My favorite? Muse of course! Though I have to admit that I can't wait to see My Chemical Romance, Jet and the Killers (even with their new so so album).

Let's rock n' roll, mates!

Ms.Mysterious smash puny humans!!

2006-09-29T19:58:00.000-06:00

Today I had my second Hapkido grading. AND I SUCKED BIG TIME!! ARGHHHHH!!! Yeah, I'm angry. First of all because even though I'm not a goddess doing my techniques, sometimes I must admit they're not that bad. But today they SUCKED. And one of the reasons is that my partner in the exam was someone I never practice with. Besides being a white belt (believe me or not that may affect), he's also pretty elastic, which makes it more difficult to adapt the techniques. (And just for the record he's a great guy, I'm not complaining about him, I'm complaining about the fact that I HAD to do it with him).

I know what you must be thinking: If your techniques are good, they're supposed to work with everyone. I KNOW THAT. And I totally agree with that notion. At the same time... I'M a fracking yellow belt in hapkido! I'm still learning to adjust my techniques to people different sizes. I'm not doing so bad with people that's bigger than me. But put me someone my own size and Ms. Mysterious is in a lot of trouble. Damn damn damn!!!! I never train with that guy! I know sooner or later I could adapt my techniques to use them on him but not in less than 5 minutes! Not in my exam. Damn damn damn damn.
Yes, Ms. Mysterious is not happy today. Grr.

Oh yeah...

2006-09-29T05:45:00.000-06:00

Robert Downey Jr. will be Tony Stark. Iron Man. Do I need to say more? =)

Fotus primerus!

2006-09-25T16:42:00.000-06:00

Yup, the first Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix official image, published by The Scotsman. Having said that, you can find more pics here. (No idea how long those have been there) . I love how they want to make us suffer, showing us pictures almost a YEAR before we can actually see the movie. Plus, the teaser trailer comes out next month, which will make Ms. Mysterious curse the heavens and try to build a time machine to speed time 'till HPOP premiere...
O, what the hell, let's enjoy. =)

2006-09-25T02:52:00.000-06:00

Where no sinner has gone before..

Funny how I could't stand Will Ferrell a couple of years ago. Now, I can't but laugh with all the stupid things he says. Oh, and that trekie moment in the interview.. PRICELESS. =)

Casinooo Royaaaaaaleeee (8) (8)

2006-09-21T05:31:00.000-06:00

Behold, sinners, here's Casino Royale's opening title song , performed by Chris Cornell (Audioslave, Soundgarden) The sound quality is not perfect, but it'll give you a good idea of what to expect in this new Bond movie. Personally, I'm still deciding if I love it or not. I don't hate it, that's for sure. Maybe is not the best Bond song ever. Let's just remember the glorious Live and Let die by Paul McCartney, Nobody does it better by Carly Simon, Goldfinger by Shirley Bassey, or even Goldeneye by Tina Turner. And yes, I also loooove License to kill by Gladys Knight. Not a classic maybe, but it's so damn good! (plus it was the first Bond movie I ever saw in a movie theater so sue me)
Anyway, thinks are looking good for Casino Royale. Go Mr. Bond!

With their secret identity revealed, can their lives be the same?

2006-09-16T18:52:00.000-06:00

Yup, that's us... We've decided to reveal our faces to the world :)

Completely remastered

2006-09-12T17:35:00.000-06:00

I want a new Ipod Shuffle. NOW.
I'm still reading about the new apple improvements. I'll rant a little bit more about it later, but in the meantime, you can check Steve Jobs presentation. Oh, and enjoy the new improvements in itunes! (Ms. Mysterious just about to install it). I'll rant also about that later ;)
Peace!

This is for you, Rob!

2006-09-10T22:52:00.000-06:00

Yeah! 'cause you're dangerous and and blond...(damn, you're not blonde).. and your blue ey.. (damn, no blue eyes) and.. Okay okay, you know I use ANY excuse to put a James Bond pic in my blog. Hehehe! MUACK! Today I proclaim this day to be ROB's DAY!! Go Rob, Go Rob!! I will watch some more Bond pics in your honor. I am that nice. =)

Taking over the world, one continent at a time.

2006-09-10T22:20:00.000-06:00

First America, then Australia, now Europe... Bonne voyage, Rob! May the winds take you to a better place, a place where you can drink wine as water, and where you can feast with endless types of cheese. May a baguette be your sword and best companion, and may you learn new, exciting words such as "Menage a trois".
Remember, whenever you need us, we'll be right here in THIS place that never ages, that knows no boundaries, that knows no time. Our beautiful, beautiful blogsphere. (Although you can always use email, call us, send postcards, or even send smoke signals. Any kind of message is greatly appreciated and will be answered. And if you manage to get rich soon, you can always send the jet for us =) )

MUACK!!! Have a great adventure!

Love from Ms. Mysterious, Mr. Marshmallow, Mighty Pulgoso and Omnipotent Puedco. =)

O, the joys of being a geek without a life..

2006-09-08T06:27:00.000-06:00

Finally, something is happening in the world. Yeah, yeah, I know that things HAPPEN on every day basis, people live, die, countries are at war, pizza prices go up, but let's be honest;This blog has never been about deep thoughts, depressing problems or political stuff (although I must admit, I've had my dark moments). No, this blog is about the things that make us feel alive, things that we love, things that makes us want to jump in joy, makes us want to dance or even to kick someone's but for making stupid decisions about things that are important in life, such as movies, comics, music or TV shows.

Anyway, our favorite shows are coming back soon, so today let's start with Battlestar Galactica, that even though the third season starts 'till October 6th, we have the weekly webisodes, to prepare us to what it could be the best season yet (I'll keep my fingers crossed). Go here to watch webisodes 1 and 2.

So what else is coming our way? If you like watching characters that are cool bastards, HOUSE(season 3) started this week. Smallville (season 6) is coming on September 28th. It will be interesting to watch where the show is going, plus, I can't wait to see Ollie's portrayal. (They better make it right, dammit!). JJ Abrams' Lost, will be back on September 27th. Will history repeat itself? Will this be the beginning of the end of a good show, just like it happened with ALIAS?

Anyway, enough ranting for the day. Ms. Mysterious is tired and needs to get some rest in order to be strong and healthy to watch all these shows. (And I'm not including Doctor Who, 'cause it's still a little bit far away... *sniff*)

So good luck, sinners. Start making your bets. Which shows do you think that will suck this season, and which shows do you think will survive the test of time and geekness?
We'll see..

I'm counting the days, Mr. Bond...

2006-09-08T06:13:00.000-06:00

YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!! Rejoice, sinners, and watch the new Casino Royale trailer. Enjoy the awesome stunts and a sexy and convincing Daniel Craig, in what seems a great rebirth of the series. GO, BOND!!!

He died doing what he loved

2006-09-04T01:54:00.000-06:00

Steve Irwin, better known as the Crocodile Hunter, died today (Monday) after being attacked by a stingray, while filming a documentary on the Great Barrier Reef. Now, THAT SUCKS. God, I'm in Kangarooland! He's the closest thing that they have to a legend or icon! The dude was crazy, but you gotta admit that it was pretty amazing all the stuff he did. Plus, he reaally enjoyed what he did. How can you not have some respect to a man like that? He followed his dreams and enjoyed every minute of it.
Anyway, it's a dark day in Kangarooland...

So long, Mr Ford

2006-09-01T07:28:00.000-06:00

I know it's kind of old news for all of you who spend your days and nights surfing the net, but Glenn Ford, better known as Pa Kent from Superman: the movie , passed away last Wednesday. He was 90 years old. I'm pretty sure that every person that watched Superman, loved his portrayal of the moral and loving father of Clark Kent. It surely broke everyone's heart when he dies in that farm in Kansas. But believe it or not, he is the lean man in one of my favorite movies of all time, The Four horsemen of the Apocalypse. If you haven't seen it, now is a good moment to do it. A story about the IIWW, family, love, and how you can't just close your eyes to what's happening around you.
Anyway, goodbye Mr. Ford. You did well.

Like father, like son?

2006-08-31T17:52:00.000-06:00

I just read something about the Doctor Who series that maybe I shouldn't have read. Daaaamn. Well, if you're a big fan and don't want to know what the rumors are for season's three finale, STOP reading.
...
Ready?
Well, rumor has it that... Doctor Who has a son.
"Doctor Who bosses have found a way to prevent the much-loved Time Lord from dying out. By giving him a son. ... A source told the Daily Express: 'Since there are only two regenerations left, the BBC needs a plan to make sure the show can carry on. Last year in one of the episodes it was hinted that the Doctor had a child following a doomed love affair with someone from a forgotten planet. Russell will unveil his big bombshell that he really is a dad in next year's series finale."
How true is this? Outpost Gallifrey think it's nonsense. Guess we'll have to wait and see!

Jack's back!

2006-08-24T05:59:00.000-06:00

Hehehe... Don't you just love good movies? =)

Ms. Mysterious wants to be a band-aid (or win the lottery)

2006-08-23T06:44:00.000-06:00

No, not groupie. A Band aid. (Just watch Almost Famous if you have no idea what I'm talking about) Oh, sweet old times. Last year I went to the ACL (Austin City Limits) with Rob, and had a great time (even though he almost dies of heat exhaustion). We were able to see and hear great bands such as Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand, Arcade Fire, Kaiser Chiefs, and The Decemberists. Back then I really didn't care much about most of the bands. Maybe I wasn't so informed about the latest bands back then. Or they were not what I was listening at the moment. Or..whatever. The thing is that a friend of mine was bragging that he had tickets for this year's ACL. I didn't hate him until I saw the line up:
MUSE
John Mayer
Tom Petty
Gnarls Barkley
Massive Attack
Flaming Lips
Ben Harper
Aimee Mann
etc, etc..
...
Did I mention that MUSE is going to play?
...
...
WAHHHHHHHHH!!!!! You have no idea how I'm dying to go to a concert of those guys. It had been a while since I fell in love with a band in this way. (And yes, I have to admit that I even have a crush with Matt Bellamy (vocals and guitar)...He kind of reminds me to The Doctor. (Yup, I'm hopeless). Anyway, I'll keep my fingers crossed, because rumor has it that Muse will come to Kangarooland to play in Big Day Out (pretty big music festival, or so they say). In the meantime, Ms. Mysterious is getting ready to buy her Clapton tickets on Monday morning. I definitely need to win the lottery or something if I really want to go to all the cool concerts that arrive to town.I already have tickets for Pearl Jam and Billy Joel, but I had to control myself and not buy for Queenryche.. *sniff* Anyway, Praaaise the Looooord for we have good music coming to town!

Yup. That's me smiling.

2006-08-20T02:01:00.000-06:00

Eric Clapton's coming to Kangarooland (8) Oh yeah, oh yeah! And there are rumors that David Gilmour might come too (8) oh yeah, oh yeah!!
*Ms. Mysterious performs , once more, her secret happy dance*

Fly me to the mooon (8)

This week has been boring. No interesting news. Yes, I know there's a world out there's chaos and there are sad things happening but I never *feel* like writing about any of that. Nope, nothing to rant about really. Nothing to complain about! (just that I'm chubby, but I'm still on denial, so I won't talk about THAT) Damn, I don't even feel like complaining about my life.
....*sigh*...
Oh I know! I could talk about the three new planets that we'll have to learn their names that are part of our galaxy!! Yeeey!! So yeah, now we have the planets Charon, Ceres and UB313. Yup, UB313 is NOT the official name. It would SUCK if that was the best name they could think of. Is just as if you had Harry, Larry and ZT400, or Huey, Louie and FR987, or.. Okay you get the idea. I know, I know! Let's name the planet! Hm.. I would name it... Planet Yourname. Or Planet Chocsundae. Or or or.... OKAY! I'm bored! Mr. Marshmallow almost killed me because I couldn't recite the nine planets in order! It's been a WHILE since I got out of elementary school, you know! I tend to forget things! But alas! I know them now! (Ms. Mysterious spent 3 minutes refreshing her memory, after Mr. Marshmallow threatend to break up with her)
Men! * sigh* And yes, this was a lousy post.
