  99. In four weeks I will have finished my fourth year living here. That does not make me happy.
  100. If New Coke (guess my misspelling!) had been popular, then, to me, the new Star Trek movie would have been like New Coke. It's sweet and sparkly and is similar to the original, but it doesn't have the richness or complexity of the original. I enjoy the new one, but I don't get the same satisfaction as I do from the original. Maybe it's because I grew up with it, but I'm not so sure.

I'm not wearing any shoes either, and standards should indeed be standard.

AE said...

Before I finish reading this: GI Joe needs a sequel..

choochoo said...

I need new shoes, too. But what I really WANT is one of those big moths.

geewits said...

I guess I'll forget about my sequel for The Big Chill then. On another note, you need to man up and tell your doctor about the runaround bullshit and try another med. Never stop at one. It took me at least 4 tries but now that I have the right one, the side affects of the wrong ones were well worth it. I believe in you.

ticknart said...

Jazz -- And yet they aren't, so whey do we still call them standards?

AE -- Why does it need a sequel?

Choochoo -- What would you name yours?

Geewits -- Just because I can't think of any movies that need sequels doesn't mean there aren't any good possibilities for them.

And, for a while, I'm going to be a child. I'm tired of being run between two different doctors who won't communicate with each other and smashing me between them and making me feel worse because I don't know what to do. Also, the payment to see either one of them right now is too much to do on a regular basis.

AE said...

Haven't laughed so hard in a long time ... Only a few major complaints about the movie ... and would have LOVED it when I was 8.

ticknart said...

I didn't think you were supposed to laugh at the movie. Glad you enjoyed it, though.

I have never thought that there weren't any need in large starting capital.
Nowadays, I feel good, I begin take up real money.
