Notes
- Bought 3 DVDs the other day for $45: There's Something About Mary (Collector's Edition), Can't Hardly Wait, and Happy Gilmore. This increases my DVD collection from 4 to 7. Now I need to either get a DVD player or hook up my computer to my TV, so I can watch them on something bigger than a 14" screen.
- I guess you can't expect much out of high school kids, but the employees at Best Buy are either really stupid, ignorant, or just liars. I was looking at the PS2 display, and I asked the guy there if he knew anything about the newer models that do progressive scan and have remotes and stuff. It would be one thing if he just said "I don't know", because I'd understand. But then he had to start saying stuff like "oh, that's just misinformation, don't believe in that". Since I knew I wasn't talking about "misinformation", I was like "hmmm.... are you sure, because I've heard about this and read about this from a bunch of different sources". So he paused, before continuing on with his little "that was just misinformation, you should ignore it" spiel. Man... stupid employees piss me off. The reasons left to shop at Best Buy instead of getting everything online are getting fewer and fewer.
- Does anyone else think that the whole country is getting Punk'd by Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore, and Bruce Willis? That's my theory, because I just don't think that Ashton Kutcher is really dating Demi Moore. For Demi and Bruce, it benefits them because they are both in Charlie's Angels 2 (albeit minor characters), and the added publicity probably translates to higher earnings from the movie. For Ashton, it benefits him because he likes to punk people, and what could be bigger than punking an entire nation that is hopelessly obsessed with celebrity couples?
By the way, doesn't it also seem convenient that Justin Timberlake started seeing Cameron Diaz a few weeks before the opening of Charlie's Angels? Kind of like a couple months ago, when Colin Farrell was seen with every hot girl in Hollywood just as his movies were coming out. Maybe Cameron D is using JT for publicity. But hey, I'm sure he wouldn't complain too much about being used.
- A couple people have told me that Terminator 3 is entertaining, so I want to see it. Too bad I don't think anyone would go with me, it may end up having to be one of those "Loser Rentals" for me. I'll add it to Blue Crush on my LR list, of DVDs that I will probably end up watching alone on some Friday night in the future.
Oh, and I can't believe Arnold Schwarzenegger might run for governor in California. Even worse is that people there might actually vote for him. I mean, have they not seen his movies? He's not even good as an actor, how can he possibly be good as a governor? And when he talks, the Unintentional Comedy of it all has me laughing for hours. Can you imagine him giving a speech about some political issue and actually expecting anyone to take it seriously? "Up and at-dem! Up and at-dem!" "My eyes! The goggles do nah-thing!"
