friday five

up-movieMovie: Up.

I don’t usually go see cartoons either, but go see it. I forget how much I love films that are brilliant and innocent.  I’d love to see an animation win best picture.


Viral Video: Magical Martial Arts

(Comment on this please.)




Quote: Jon Acuff

“When you watch “Jon & Kate” and say, “That could never happen to me” the devil does the robot.”

Article of Clothing: Foot Cages

The question isn’t “are these still okay to wear?” because they never were.

Request: a standard goldendoodle puppy

But I don’t want to pay $2000.  The bigger the better.  Anyone have any leads?  Or $2000 I can have?

    That video can’t be serious. It’s ha larious, but I don’t think they meant to be.

    I am some what of an expert when it comes to kids and kid entertainment with a positive theme. I am such an expert you might even say i am a scientist in the matter. And as a scientist let me just say, this is quality children focused entertainment that will definitely change lives. Unfortunately little “butt cut billy’s” self esteem never did recover from his traumatizing debut into film, but that seems apparent. Most often that which would push an adult to drugs, or seems the result of drugs, tends to be good clean fun for the tots. This award winning film should be a lesson to us all about how easy it is was to sell things in the late 90′s. http://www.amazon.com/Magic-Martial-Arts-Soke-Kubota/dp/B0000E1QUM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1244210459&sr=8-1

    And unfortunately the director had a somewhat long road of recover involving ancient dance techniques and she never did direct again. http://www.marshascarbrough.com/

    The movie UP was amazing I went yesterday with my niece and nephew, and I was very surprised at how much I loved it.
    I have hated the Jon & Kate show since I saw the picture of her belly with 8 kids in it.
    I never like those “foot cages”
    GoldenDoodles are awesome but most things that cost 2 grand are. Just go to the humane society there are thousands of awesome pets that need a home.
    The video, I will not comment I am just running away and I do feel like a winner!

    Acuff’s Jon&Kate quote was brilliant. And i was happy he wrote that post because i was about to and then i didnt have to.

    i am so embarrassed to admit that i wore those mandals for a summer. if i could go back in time and punch myself in the face, i would, and then I would try to blow up the swan station with the Jughead bomb so i never wore mandals in the first place.

    - Hopefully going to see “UP” with the fam tomorrow.
    - Can’t comment on the Video because my Safe Eyes filters You Tube.
    - Foot Cages, if we can recall the electric car and make them all disappear, why can’t we do it with these sandals??
    - we are looking at getting a “Labradoodle” awesome

    I only needed to watch about 30 seconds of that video before I Favorited it in YouTube. Gotta love those off-the-wall retro videos.

    And amen on the foot cages. Let those feet go FREEEEE in Juh-esus Name!! (you gotta do your best Benny Hinn impression when you say that)

    As much as I agree that foot cages have been, are, and always will be wrong, Crocs are just so much worse. When I was a retail intern, I wasted valuable hours of my life circulating a memo around the mall about how they get sucked into escalators and mangle feet.

    There is no escalator in your garden, take the stupid things off.

    Since when do villains actually DIE in kid’s movies? As sweet as it was, at times Up was pretty brutal

    I just watched the magical martial arts video…..and am pretty sure I just had my first experience of being "high"……………what the heck was that?!
