Hello people of the free (and/or not so free, as it may be) world!
Good flip, did I just type 'people of the free world?' Wow. That's not like me. Anywho...
My current place of work, The Chateau Pomije (
http://www.cpwinery.com/) has gotten some new buisness cards, which I say in their just delivered box in the waitress station. Oh yes. Fun new busisness cards. Professional typeset and font, wonderful little backround illustration, and a nice little slogan. I'm going to focus on the slogan here. By going to the site, you can see that we are marketed as
fine dining. Well... Our slogan doesn't really fit that. At all. In the slightest way. No, our slogan's message seems to say...
Hooters. Now that I'm driving you crazy with anticipation, I'm going to give you the slogan... "P..." Wait. This calls for italics.
"Pick me, squeeze me, make me wine." Thank you very much. Now, that could be called clever. But it could also be called obscene. Just a little bit. Ok, so a lot-le bit.
Alright, on the the next order of buisness... My birthday was last Saturday. September the 24th. I am now... Well, I really don't need to tell all of you, come to this of it. Anywho, I got stuff. Thanks to all of you who gave me gifts. I would blabber on about them, but that's what thank you cards are for, and gift cards, cash, and clothing are not things most of my readers will care about. Though the gift card, other card, and money are great. And so is the wool sweater. And the pants.
But you other readers, you didn't give me gifts (NO HAZEL, I'M NOT HINTING AT ANYTHING SO DON'T COMMENT SAYING THAT I AM!), might be interested in one of the gifts I recived. A DVD copy of "
The Hitchikers Guide to the Galexy." Yay! I'll give you my personal review. The movie, as I already knew from seeing it in theaters, was fantanstic. Funny, unexpected, inconsistent, pointless, and loveable. Oh yes, and there's Marvin. We all love Marvin. As for the special features... All I've watched of yet are the Deleted Scenes (stupid), Really Deleted Scenes (stupid-er), and the Additional Guide Entry (taken from the book and thus, unorigonal and not a big suprise as it was labled to be). But the movie was good, and that's all that matters.
One of the previews has me rather excited as well. No, it's not
FlightPlan, though that looks good. It's
Narnia.
Wow. WETA Workshop (the people who worked on
Lord of the Rings) are at it again, with the help from Disney (who's been getting better with movies like
Pirates of the Carribean. It looks good. Very good.
Anyway... I'll blab more later. For now, I'm done.
Signing off.

In response to your hint, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Yeah, okay, that wasn't a hint. I'm totally convinced...yeah, I am.
Nice to see a post you actually wrote, and I don't mean that sarcastically, I like reading your writing.
