Best Episode Ever

After viewing this past week's "Entourage" I figured it was time to compile a list of the best episodes ever (for Entourage, this is very close, if not, the top) Here are my results of the work in progress:

5. Saved by the Bell: Episode where Zack and Kelly break up at the school dance but profess to be friends forever, just for the sheer comedic value of watching some of Mark Paul and Tiffani-Amber's worse acting moments ever.

4. Different Strokes: The bicycle store episode, nuff said.

3. Beverly Hills 90210: "Donna Moss Graduates" is up there, but I think when Steve "loans" his car to the girl with the bra top in the hopes she would play with his stick shift must come in at #1.

2. Seinfeld: Don't make me choose (although my favorite bit is probably when George pulls the golf ball from the great fish....(Jerry: "Mammal"; George: "Whatever")

1. The Cosby Show: When Dr. Huxtable decides to teach Theo about "real life" and makes him pay rent to his landlord, played brilliantly by Keisha-Knight as an old woman (really showed her range as a thespian)

Ooompa Loompa

So I am at the movies on Saturday night and decide, as all Americans do, this is the perfect time to purge on some good old fashioned candy crap. Of course I went for the sour patch kids (despite the woman professing there were only sour melons, eventually she dug down and found some kids--pays to flirt with the nice candy lady) Anyway, it has come to my attention that when we were small, these bags of candy contained at least twenty five pounds of candy, and now...I think there were about four kids in the entire pacakge. What gives? Are the packages getting smaller or are we getting bigger. (Note that the soda sizes are still growing at an alarminly exponential rate-- so that I was able to enjoy my diet coke jacuzzi well until Tuesday)

Popping My Blog Cherry

So like many others in the world I have nothing to say but feel like it must be said anyway, so welcome to my little blog in the forrest of life. Stay as long as you like and let's see if we can't make this world a little better one post at a time. On that note....

According to yesterday's CNN:

A U.S. Pentagon invention could make air combat resemble a battle scene from the movie 'Star Wars' with a laser so small it can fit on a fighter jet, yet powerful enough to knock down an enemy missile in flight...But the Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency reckons it has solved the problem by merging liquid and solid state lasers to cut the size and weight by "an order of magnitude", according to its Web site.

Is it just me, or wasn't this the ending to the Val Kilmer classic, "Real Genius"?
