“I don’t know what to say, the monkeys won’t do!”
everyday glory, games, monkeys!, movies and TV April 3rd, 2007Tuesday – 03 April 2007
Another bright, shiny morning in the Land Behind the Zion Curtain. The morning begins – as all mornings should – with a cup of frozen mocha goodness. Two shots. Selah. The race with the road monkeys wasn’t bad, but it was amusing: As I was getting onto I-15 from the I-215 interchange, I watched as four monkeys attempted the impossible (at least according to modern physics) – They tried to put themselves into the same space at the same time. I noted this to coworker John and we came up with what I think would make good copy for an UCBD ad campaign on “How To Be an Ass-Monkey to Your Fellow Drivers”:
Drive offensively among others before they drive offensively unto you.
Of course, there would be ads for “How To Be a Sensible Driver,” as well. Or we could just take it on faith that people have a modicum of common sense. Or would that be giving them too much credit?
There was no game last night. Instead, I hung out with Frankie and watched 24, an episode of Homicide and Hustle & Flow. I hadn’t seen Hustle & Flow before… and I can’t figure out why I waited. It was a good movie. Very good. Terrence Howard – and the rest of the cast – did an excellent job. This is the second Craig Brewer movie that I’ve seen in the past month or so… and I have enjoyed them both.
The Scales of Justice
Last night, The Hand of Nefer-Tem led a small team into The Hollows for a couple of missions against The Council and some Trolls. Beatings were dispensed. Justice was served. The missions also advanced the missing Kheldians storyline.
…and I’m a short way from Level 20. Which means that I need to start thinking about Costume #2, which will again be civilian clothes. I haven’t settled on a look yet, but I think that I might go with something more casual and possibly a little more ethnic, in keeping with Nefer-Tem’s background.
