Robin Hood: Men In Tights

Ok...
I am happy and pissed at the same time.
I have been searching for this film on DVD for a long time now.
I saw it at Walmart today. I HAD to buy it.
The first thing I thought was "How did I miss the advertising for this?"

Although, I was slightly disappointed at the lack of special features, but I was happy to have it.

I got home and decided to check up on it. Turns out, it got released last year.
So, of course, my first reaction to that was, "How did I miss the release?"

Hmm... Oh well, all is well now.
Fantastique!

Russian Invasion


Those of you that left Picklefish early missed out on a visit from an old friend....
Ania.

It was a happy reunion.

Sleeping Requirements

In order for me to sleep, two things must be true.
There must be some form of constant airflow.
There must be some form of ambient noise.

Remove either of these, and I usually awaken from any slumber I may be enjoying.

Well, this happened again this morning. For some reason, my neighborhood lost power around 4:30ish. I woke up to see my fan slowing gradually to a stop. My ceiling fan provides both of the above requirements. Turn off Matt's fan, and Matt does not sleep.

I never did figure out what happened. I suppose I could have walked down the road to find out. I kept hearing sirens. I just figured that perhaps someone wrecked their car into a major power structure or something.

Anyway, after a while, and just before dawn, power was finally restored. It had one half-second spurt around 5ish. I tried to sleep, but it just was not working out. Luckily, the power was eventually restored. I finally got back to sleep.
Whoo hoo!
