Cool Video
I saw this video in a bar in Atlanta and is has haunted me since. I spent a couple of hour searching for it (since I was unsure of the singer) and wanted to share it with my small readership.
I am shocked this was directed by Jim 1.0's favorite director:

101 Update
I have been working on this list I just have not been crossing items off on of the list. I have been spending a lot of my free time working on #20 and #82, since my home has been in disarray since March with construction related defect construction work.
Well I have started working on #96. To facilitate this I have started my very own Super Boring Blog™. I am blatantly stealing the idea from Quiana with a modification that I stole from Jim 2.0 of including a picture with each post. My own little twist is that all of the post will be added using the email feature of my phone. The major setback of this is that the phone's email totally lacks any form of spell check so my spelling and grammar will be even worse then what is found here...

Kimmel Hulk
I have no real love for the humor of Jimmy Kimmel but I must say he makes some awesome viral videos.

Bucking trends since 1968
I find this hard to believe but I liked Speed Racer more than I liked Iron Man. I found that the after-escape armor design portion kind of dragged on forever and that the final battle was very anti-climatic. While in Speed Racer, I could not take my eyes off the screen. The story was pretty week in Speed Racer with plot holes big enough to drive the Mach 5 through, but overall it was just more entertaining. And the visuals were amazing. If you get the chance you should see this in the big screen.

You should be listening to this Podcast
Radio Lab has quickly become my favorite Podcast. I recently finished listening to their first "live" show where they talked in depth about Orson Well's War of the World's. They do a great job explaining how the hoax worked and why people keep falling for the gag.

I forbid you
from NOT going to see The Forbidden Kingdom
{Poster picture removed by people that don't want their stuff promoted}
I went to see this under slight duress, but was totally blown away. I had not seen anything about this movie except the TV commercials so I was totally blindsided by what the movie actually was.
On a side note this guy looks totally like The Muther Effin LaBeouf

The Solution of all Life's problems
So the plant has a rule that you can not bring beverages onto the site in thier original containers. I am sure there is a good reason for this, but everyone that I queried had no idea what it is. So I was forced to trek to Wal-mart to pickup a sport bottle of some sort so that I could drink beverages. The only ones that I could find had a core that you are supposed to freeze overnight to keep you beverages cold. The first thing that both Scott and I noticed is that said insert looked quite phallic and pink plastic was probably not the best choice. Well on the way to the snack isle I found something that has turned my outlook on life upside down:
That is right a smiling Batman 10 oz Insulated Big Kids cup!!!!
It is hard to frown when even Batman is smiling.

Sad Paul
Holy Crap it is been a crappy last couple of days. Some of the Things that have gone wrong:
- Hair Salon screws up appointment and new stylist can't follow simple instructions.
- New haircut is way shorter then I like.
- Tickets to see Dalai Lama event at Qwest Field did not show up in time for event.
- Friday plans fall through do to the MIA
- Forgot a belated birthday present for a belated birthday party.
- Interior destruction begins this week on condo
- Face full of dust during prep for said construction cause massive sinus headache that last for two days.
- Replacement X-box 360 and Superman Returns Save Game file not compatible, so I am forced to start game over. BTW Jim is the man for finishing the game without cheats enabled.
- Work on a project that I was trying to get the customer off there ass to do before I left town finally got started today... The day I left town.
- Long drive to Spokane
- I'm in Spokane... BTW anyone have any suggestions for a touristy think to do in Spokane? It is on the 101 list but the only suggestions that locals can come up with is to go to the park. Right now I am thinking I will just settle for eating at the Original Lonestar BBQ. Mainly because it is tasty :)
- A chance to work on a fun project has come up but that means I have to write a good proposal by next Monday while working 10+ hours a day here in Spokane.
- Everything in my condo is pushed in corners and covered in plastic. This development so messed with the funk sway of the pad, that I was so unnerved that I could not sleep until after the alarm went off.
- All of the Monster Cookies are gone.
- When covering the entertainment center I must have screwed up the Slingbox, so I was not able to watch HIMYM tonight as planned. Never mind it is online :) I Heart the Internet

7. Make a batch of Monster Cookies
I promised cookies would be available for those that show up to help me move stuff this weekend and I wanted to knock something off the 101 list, so I spent the evening making a batch of my favorite cookies growing up. I could not find the recipe that I used to use but once again the internet was my friend. This one is as close as I could find to what I recall. Overall I would rate the new recipe a success.
If you are reading this at work say the secret word and give one a try.

89. Play a round of mini golf
Found out that the Niece's complex has a mini-golf course, so I gathered my foursome and hit the little links.
It was only nine holes and not in very good condition, but we had fun.

49. Visit nieces in Miami
So the reason I ended my 360 Achievement streak was so that I could visit my for amazing nieces in Miami. Technically they are in Weston but I did fly into Miami. I was able to checkout the fabulous Fort Lauderdale beach action.
OK it was an overcast February afternoon but I was very disappointed/disgusted at the "scenery." There were a half dozen women in bikinis but not a one that should have been. Plus there was a thirty-ish looking dude making out in the surf with a 15 year old looking young girl. Not something you want to see/think about when you are spending time with your four pre-teen nieces.
While we were at the beach I got to partake in something I have not done in a long time: Fly a kite.
I was shocked at how easy it was to put together and get into the air. So much easier then it used to be.

31. Earn one Xbox 360 Achievement every day for a month
January 10th to February 12th. Gain of 1,420 points in 9 games.
This was a lot of fun. It made me break out some of my older games that I had either never played or had not touched in a while.
I am total into Oblivion and can't wait for Bioware to release Fallout III.
On a side not my 360 now has it's own blog. It is mad at me right now because I am working on number 49.

38. See a Presidential candidate
I am marking this one as done, because I made a valid effort and had a good time in the process.
Today I went to the Seattle Center to the Obama rally. I went there with Danny from work and arrived at about 10 AM with the doors opening at 11. I probably should gotten there a little sooner. I have made a little map to show the line situation.
That is a lot of people.
