Thanks Doc for reminding me ( pointing it out, rubbing my nose in it, whatever.)

We Watch Movies: Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Amazing, Del Toro has created an astounding universe for Hellboy, which we sort of saw in the first film, but in The Golden Army you get thrown in the deep end like a medieval witch trial. A little back story, in a flashback to 1955, as told by Prof. Broom to an adolescent Hellboy (whom is convinced that Howdy Doody is a real boy) and we’re set to go.
Favorite scene; the Troll Market. Damn, it’s like every extra creature from Labyrinth and Dark Crystal that didn’t make the final cut is in there. We plan on seeing it again just to check out all the details and goings on in the background. Creature effects for days.
And Doug Jones is still the most amazing actor who’s face you’ve never seen.
Can you believe that Ron Perlman is 58? Selma Blair is a lot more fleshed out as a character this time around, not so much the shrinking violet from the first film; more confident. That’s hot. Go rent Feast of Love and Storytelling; she’s *totally* naked in them.
The Wii Fit - I predict a headline from the future: Nintendo Saves an Obese America.
This thing is so cool that it sizzles. I was a little skeptical at first ( silly me, I should have know better - I’m a huge Wii fanboy and should keep the Mario Faith ) but we were able to score one at Game Crazy in San Bruno ( kudos to those guys, best customer service ever. Game Stop; you SUCK!) and Court set it up yesterday. If you have a pulse and/or an internet of your own, I’ll go ahead and skip the details. You know what it is and what it does. But I had no idea how well it does what it does. Talk about unintended consequences; I broke a sweat with the original Wii Sports games, but the Fit just might make me even more sexy than I already am. Side note: the Fit may increase Court’s sex appeal but we have to be careful - she’s already hot - increasing her attractiveness factor could be dangerous - we don’t want the universe collapsing into a sexy singularity.
Wii Girl ain’t got nothing on my baby. But she’s indicated that if I post the video of her doing the hula hoop exercise that I took last night… I will regret it. We’ll see. I have powerful means of persuasion.
Oh and my Wii Fitness Age: 35! Suck it entropy!
Nerd girls are hot. They come in many flavors. Court is a comic nerd, science, art and lit geek.
And then there’s Becky.
Rebecca is a math and physics nerd of the first water. I’m pretty sure she’ll be famous someday for solving some unsolvable equation, discovering a new GUT or she’ll disappear in a lab experiment gone awry and then return with super powers. Something like that.
Anyway, she has a fascination with the number five and already has geek ink to prove it.
Her latest:

Dude, you had a Turing machine inked on you.
That’s so geek I can’t even begin to approach it.
Talk about MIT street cred.
You win one (1) internet.
