I have always admired the works of Improv Everywhere. You know, the No Pants on the Subway people in the news recently? The U2 on the rooftop prank seen on VH1 Best Pranks? Well, their newest gig was Frozen Grand Central Station here. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwMj3PJDxuo] My point in all this is that I have ALWAYS wished that there is one like that for Los Angeles area so I could join them in the madness. And guess what? They just started an international community for folks to start a group anywhere. As of last night, I joined the cause. And this morning,...

This weekend flew by at warp speed. Well, as it should as I was on board the Enterprise. Hehe. I will put the picture of our group on the bridge of NC-1701-A…that’s the Kirk-Spock Enterprise to you…up as soon as I could clean all the specks off of my scan. The Star Trek Tour was quite fun. The price is a little steep for the experience but yeah, it was really entertaining. The group went to Gaffey Street Diner for a huge lunch. Then later on, Erik, Brandon, and I followed our inner 13-year-old’s lack of better sense and saw...

As we were watching a documentary on a few ways that humanity could come to an end. You know, massive volcanic eruption. Nuclear War. Global Warming. That kind of thing. They mentioned asteroid collisions of the worst kind. Me: I’d totally go wait right there where the asteroid is going to hit. I’d rather having us die right there on the spot than ending having to eat each other…you know, not in a sexual way. Brandon laughs. Me: I mean, seriously though. I don’t want to suffer through the whole aftermath. I’d rather go with the first blow. Brandon: And...

The second giant storm is heading to the Southland. But today, we have a break. The sky is super blue and there are actually fluffy clouds out. Gorgeous. Our plan is to be outside for a bit, see Cloverfield, and get grocery. But my major goal for the weekend is cleaning my “den”. I started nesting sometime at the end of the day at work yesterday. My cubicle has looked like Kansas after a tornado for the past few months. I finally cleared things out. On Monday, I have to bust out the dusting cloth and 409 and REALLY clean...

That was the Golden Globe???? Kind of ironic that I got all of the winners long before the “official” telecast on NBC ever caught up. And also ironic that the Matt Lauer’s Dateline special didn’t interview any winners. Heh. Now, my predictions. With HFPA, my theory is to pick something less Hollywood-y. They seemed to go for that more than Oscars which has become a lot more of a popular contest than anything. But even that theory didn’t really work for me this year.  As for television category, I mostly guessed blind because I don’t have HBO. I’m just...
