Dream This morning I woke up pissed. I had a dream that left me unsatisfied. I was in a cafeteria style food joint (I can't call it a restaurant), and it was being run by a bunch of old guys. People were in there getting their breakfast, getting served, when I joined the line. I asked for a grilled cheese sandwich and a coffee. I got both. The coffee was poured into a cup, and the ole guy behind the grill make me my sandwich. Then I had to pay. I handed over a $50 bill, and got back $23 dollars change. The sandwich and the coffee was $9.90. What the #$@!? I tried explaining ... I did the math. The two old guys behind the counter, laughed at me, and told me I couldn't add. They were toying with me. They got it. They kept making me explain over and over. And each time they would either tell me they didn't get it, or they would laugh and telling me I was pulling a fast one on them. They would not give the correct change. Then, as I was arguing, the guy that made the sandwich for me, sneaks it off my plate and starts to chomp away at it, hiding it under the counter every time I look at him! I ended up with a $10 coffee! Pissed, I walked out of the joint to my car - the place erupted with laughter as I left. I got to my car, and pulled out the machine gun I had there. Then I woke up. I woke up feeling unsatisfied and pissed. My day turned out better though.

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut -- This is one hilarious movie -- but boy is it rude. It's rude beyond the point of being offensive. The movie takes the good taste filter off and amuses with humour that simulate the juvenile in us. Every now and again though, that little kid in us needs to be amused -- and this movie will certainly do that. If you're offended by the movie, it's because the adult in you is watching. The Brothers Grimm -- This was an OK fantasy movie, moving at a good pace, with the appropriate level of action and humour. The special effects were well done -- and so was the cinematography. If you missed it in the theatre, you didn't miss much however. You can catch it on DVD. The Aristocrats -- This is a movie about a joke. One joke. That's it. The delivery however -- now that was something else. The delivery was sick, sick, sick. This is an in-joke for comedians that have been numbed by jokes for us regular folk. The only thi...
