In honor of Halloween I just wanted to recommend my Top 10 Favorite Horror Movies. Scared yet? Did not think so........:)
10. The Mist: classic Stephen King, showing how people can loose it and follow a crazed zealot to even commit murder, a strange mist, and even stranger creatures. The ending is one of the harshest I've seen!
9. Scream: New take on the classic slasher flick with great suspense while poking fun at some of the classics of the drama.....
8. The Thing: John Carpenter at his best in this smart alien flick that is more about suspense and paranoia than special effects, set in the arctic wastelands.
7. The Shining: Jack Nicholson is fabulous as the father gone crazy and trying to kill his family at a resort hotel during the winter.
6. The Exorcist: Green Pea Soup vomit, demonic possession, and a girl violating herself with a cross screaming, "fuck me" to a priest.....does it get any crazier?
5. 28 Weeks Later: great new take on the zombie flick where it's no longer the slow moving, stupid zombies. These zombies are infected with the "rage" virus and go full out.
4. Saw: The first of the series really was a great suspense/mystery flick with all kinds of twist and turns and one of the greatest twist endings in recent memory.
3. the original Halloween: the consummate slasher flick in which the clinically insane Michael Myers breaks out of the insane asylum in order to kill his sister and terrorizes a whole town on Halloween night in plain, emotionless mask.
2.The Hill Have Eyes(the newer re-make): the first movie in a while to raise the hairs on the back of my neck. Craziest moment is when the shit starts to hit the fan all at once and you realize this movie is pulling no punches.
1. Aliens: not only is it my favorite sci-fi/horror flick it is my favorite movie of all time mixing suspense, terror, and action all rolled into one blockbuster movie. Favorite moment is when the Aliens come out of the wall for the first time and you realize the marines are screwed....Game Over Man, Game Over.

The Office plugs Battlestar Galactica.....Sweet!
Could not have said it any better myself :)
Dwight said he never stole time from the company so Jim watched him all day with a stopwatch to time him whenever he did anything personal. Here he's trying to goad him into a conversation....priceless

Received my new issue of GameInformer for November and had an article on this video and where the next generation in animation is headed. Pretty impressive you ask me but you can judge for yourself

The Jerk Line.....
I found this hilarious and very disturbing at the same time. Some NFL teams have been adopting a policy of having a "hot line" that you can call if there is a problem with fans while tailgating in the parking lot. Well the Cincinnati Bengals are going a step further with what is being called the "jerk hotline" The phone number is 513-381-JERK and can be reached by call or text during tailgating and games. The idea being that if people are too obnoxious or cursing during games you can call the hotline and stadium security will first issue a warning. If the problem continues fans may be removed from the stadium and have season tickets revoked, serious issues will result in arrest. I found this extremely amusing at first but then it makes me think of Nikki's recent blog "What has happened to us?" Has common courtesy diminished so badly that now we have to have a "jerk" hotline. This sounds like a good idea to get rid of the true jerks but how long before this hotline is abused just by people who are annoyed or have a personal vendetta against opposing fans. How long before this becomes common place at all sporting events?
A Healthy Diet.......
Olympic Swimmer Michael Phelps has an incredible diet based on the calories and energy he needs to compete at such a high level of swimming. He reportedly swims minimum of 5 hours a day burning over a 1000 calories an hour. Recently he spoke to ESPN about his daily diet. Do you think you could handle this daily......
For breakfast, Phelps has:
* Three fried egg sandwiches with cheese lettuce tomatoes, fried onions and mayo
* One five-egg omelette
* A bowl of grits
* Three slices of French toast with powdered sugar
* Three chocolate chip pancakes
* Two cups of coffee
That's 4000 calories!
For lunch:
* 1,000 calories worth of energy drinks
* A pound of pasta with tomato sauce
* Two large ham, cheese and mayo sandwiches on white bread
For dinner:
* Six to eight slices of pizza
* Another pound of pasta with tomato sauce
* And wash it down with another 1,000 calories of energy drinks
All together …12,000 calories a day!
