Best Movie Ever

I don't generally take time to watch (even less to talk about) movies, but here is the link to what is quite possibly going to be the best movie ever... http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/nacholibre/internet_lg.html
Maybe it will just be the best movie this year, or maybe it'll be alright. Just watch the trailer already! Smurf out.

Yesterday

I'm too busy to actually design and build a time machine, but I have come up with a more practical approach. I had been thinking about this for a little while, then I saw Superman again recently and it just reaffirmed my idea. It all has to do with the rotation of the Earth and the International Date Line. If you were to go from east to west along the Equator, traveling just fast enough to go around the Earth in 24 hours, once you hit that dateline you're in yesterday. The only problem is that it took you 24 hours, so it's really just today again. But let's speed things up a little bit. Head the same direction, doubling your speed, go around the Earth in just 12 hours. Now you have gotten to yesterday halfway through the day. Ya, you've missed half of the day, but you get a whole extra half a day. And face it, the afternoon and evening is probably what you want to repeat anyways. It is also important to note that if you work your way closer to the North or South Pole, this trek around the Earth will go considerably faster. Of course this can work in reverse as well. Say that you are really looking forward to "Mission Impossible III" like I am. Just get on that plane and head from west to east, before you know it the Summer will be here and Tom Cruise will be kicking some... well I don't want to give anything away, but it's a sweet movie!

It was really just a trickle, but lo and behold, the people have spoken. Seriously though! Do you all think that a blog page is for holding your own personal conversations? Perhaps the first one or two responses to my previous blog had something to do with the blog, then you guys went off into never-never land! Here's an example:

Edwardo writes: I think that yellow is an underapreciated color, which tends to get a bad wrap due to a cetrain fluid that it is associated with... Discuss.

Ben Responds: (in the comment section) Yes Edwardo you are right on, I couldn't agree with you more, personally I like yellow and I painted my car yellow last weekend.

Nathan Replies: Cars are so coool, one day I'm going to buy a car.

Natedogg Replies: I was just outside and it's straight-up dark outside, what's up with that?!

Now, I must first say that I have absolutely no idea who Nathan is, and I think I know who Natedogg is, but that's a subject for a whole other blog. Do you get my point though? If you want to talk to someone you know, give him/her a ring. If you want to use up space on my blog page, read what I write, think carefully about what I've said, compose two or three rough drafts, and then if you truly think that you are worhty feel free to respond.

Now That's What I'm Smurfing Talking About...

No one seemd to get the smurfing point of my last smurf of a blog! What I'm smurfing trying to say is that "smurf" is one of those smurfy words that smurfing works wherever the smurf you want it to. As fans of the smurfing show might recall "smurf" is a a universal word. It can be used any smufing way you want to smurfing use it. Here is a good smurfing example:

Papa Smurf: Where the smurf are you off to Smurfette?

Smurfette: Well, I'm just looking to go the the park and have a smurfing good time with Brainy, alright Papa Smurf, and anyways, what the smurf do you care? You're not even my surfing "real dad" anyways!

As you should clearly smurfily see, "smurf" works in everyday conversation, and I'm sure all you smurfing nice readers will be using "smurf" as smurf often as possible.

Now, please make some smurfing comments!

The Science of Blogging

Blogging is an exact science. My favorite inexact science is psuedochemistry, but that's a topic for some other time.

To blog correctly one must take into account a variety of factors, least of which is not boyancy. Boyancy is only slightly less important than surface tension. Suface tension is dependent on atmoshperic pressure, therefore making atmospheric pressure jump to the top of the list. Whithout atmoshperic pressure, there would be no blogging.

Newton wrote that the reason he was out there in his orchard was in preperation of that weekend's blogging. If it's good enough for Newton, it's good enough for me.

Blogging for Apples

I was so excited to discover that I could actually blog online.
My earliest memories (and fondest by far) are of blogging for apples.
It was usually around 13 degrees outside, and someone had the great idea to throw some ice-cubes into the apple bucket just to "keep it interesting". There I was with my head submerged in a bucket of water, ice and precious apples, searching for just the right one. I don't even like apples and never will. Is that a piece of gum? No flavor left, keep searching! Finally, there it is the perfect specimen; round, bright red, juicy, I can't feel my ears anymore. Well, blogging for apples is done, it's time to go on that hay-ride.
