I wish I could get these guys for my new years party...

My mom was disturbed to see me laughing hysterically at this sketch when I was a kid, enjoy!


Happy Birthday Mom!

If Quentin Tarantino couldn't get John Travolta to star in "Pulp Fiction", would he have hired the other sweathogs for his movie for the price of one Travolta?

100 Hours...Our latest film race entry is available for viewing online, it is entitled "Right to Privacy" and you can watch it here..I can't upload it up to youtube until the film race people are done with it. I'm in the movie as a peeping tom who gets bound and tortured by wearedna. My sister makes a cameo as does ianmichael. I think they are counting how many hits the page gets, cause on January 11th, 2010 they are going to announce the top 20 movies, where they will probably have a proper screening. So, go ahead and check it out and support my underground film gang.

So, this is Christmas?...And what have you done? Well, I got shit-faced drunk with friends and family. At first there was the holiday party that started out as a house party but devolved into a block party. It started at my house, where the clan was getting together for cake and beers, The next door neighbor (also another relative) decided to throw a surprise kegger, all of their peoples showed up and then there were two houses full loud drunk Cubans. The party virus spread to the rest of the block when all the holiday parties started to blend together, even my neighbor Mike and his gang of octogenerian world war two vets showed up. Around ten pm-ish I had my fill of dancing little kids and drunk parents I headed off to life_of_brian's house to catch up on shit. demonsthenes, neuralstate and ianmichael showed up to spread some holiday cheer and watch a little MST3K with us. It was a more subdued affair, but we had our shits and giggles and everyone drunkenly drove home safely.

So, this is a Hangover?...Christmas Day was probably a preview of my New Years Day. I woke up around 3pm with a hangover, as did all the clan. Over the holiday, the gift of the year seemed to be bottles of wine. Each of the drinking age inhabitants of this house got several bottles to themselves via gifts from various friends and family. I probably cleared through two bottles of Merlot before 6pm to cure that hangover. My sister could probably open up her own personal wine cellar.

Last Wrap up of the Decade...What can we say about the Aughties? It was one rough decade. It starts off with a stolen election, then the towers of babel collapsing, followed by the economy and a two-front war. Much like the 2001 and 2010 movies, this decade was only enjoyable if you were on drugs. At least we got a black guy elected president. This was the decade in which I transitioned from a wild 20 something into a stoned 30 something. Personally, it's been a rollercoaster for me, it started with success in New York City and then a crash landing back home in Miami. But I guess, there are worse places to crash land at. Miami ain't so bad. The money sucks but at least the weather is nice. Hopefully, the next decade brings you and yours much luck and happiness. Signing out officially for this decade, this is Daniel Noel Gonzalez (seriously, I'm too old to be a ninja, I might change the user name in the next decade) heading off into the next clusterfuck of a decade...

**2010: 500 Episodes In One Year
As the title suggests this is a challenge to watch 500 episodes of TV-shows in one year. The only rule is that if you watch a certain episode more than once in a year you can only list it again if you haven't already listed it for that month.
* rewatch
