Speaking of, what's the deal with the pee splattered all over in the restrooms at work?!? It's inconsiderate fellas, just plain inconsiderate. (That makes you guys want to do it even more, right?)

Bella smokes the Chronic!
You will want to visit Good 'Ol TMZ to see pics of Kristen Stewart hittin' the pipe.
Hey- I don't care what she does, but it is always fun to see celebs caught in the act. And in case you have forgotten already, Kristen Stewart plays Bella in the new movie Twilight, which I reviewed recently.

Twilight, 2 Virginal Vampires out of 5
Well, first I would like to preface this review by saying that I did read the Twilight book series (except for the last book). I really enjoyed the first book in the series, the one the film is based on. That said, the movie is not nearly as enjoyable as the book was. If you had to choose between either the movie or the book, please pick the book. I actually encourage all the 3 of the RMB blog readers to read the first book in the series.
OK, now onto the movie review.
It started off good, faithful to the book and then somewhere the train derailed horribly. The supporting actors in this movie couldn’t act their way out of a paper bag. It was quite sad actually and for a good part of the movie the audience was laughing (and not because this was a comedy). I really, really wanted to like this movie. And I thought that the trailer conveyed that the film was well done. But, the trailer tricked to me. The screenplay was poorly adapted and a lot of the dialogue was unforgivable. An example; at one point Edward, our main hero- the brooding, handsome vampire, takes Bella (the female lead) and tosses her on his back as he prepares to fly out of the window- but before he does, he turns around and says “You better hang on you little spider monkey”- WHAT THE FU… no really, What The Eff- where did that come from? I sure as hell don't remember that line from the book, and if you don't think it seems corny, then I implore you to watch that scene of the film and not laugh.
Edward, played by Robert Pattinson, did an OK job. At times I thought his line delivery was wooden and uncomfortable, but I do give him an A for effort. He is quite dreamy so I might be going too easy on him. Bella, played by Kristen Stewart, does a much better job. She was more like the way I imagined the Bella character to be.
Everyone else pretty much sucked. Well, the kid who played Jacob (the annoying soon-to-be werewolf) was actually alright. I thought I would hate him (because I did in the book) but he did a good job in the movie.
Anyhow, if you did not read the book, then do not see this movie- save your money. If you did read the book, then take a chance and see the movie- if only to compare and contrast the characters from the book. If you are a teenage girl, then go see this movie right away- did I mention that Edward takes his shirt off in the film?!?
This picture is for you Brandie- I will admit that Robert Pattinson is really hot, especially for being so damned pale.
OK- ridiculous supporting Actor number One- The blonde guy, that is Peter Facinelli, he is actually 34 years old, but he looks like he is 23. Anyhow, he plays Dr. Cullen in the film and he is supposed to be Edward's (and the rest of the vampire clan) adoptive father! I know Dr. Cullen is young in the book, but I pictured someone more like Patrick Dempsey- where he is still good looking and young, but not so young that it would be weird for him to have a 17 year old son!
Here is an example of Bella being a Spider Monkey...
Ridiculous supporting actor number 2- this guy! I don't know his name, but i do know that if Justin Timberlake and Edward Scissorhands had a baby, it would be this kid. Oh, and his acting is atrocious, just really, really horrible. Most of the laughter in the audience came when he was on the screen. The chick kinda looks like a young Sandra Bullock...
And, here is a still from the Prom scene in the movie. Can Edward resist the tempation to bite Bella? Read the book and find out! (but dont find out from the movie)

Casual Fridays
I wish we could wear jeans everyday, not just Fridays. Why does The Man hate blue jeans so much?

What do you call a Soft Drink?
I say coke, Jesse says pop, although I have never heard him actually say it. He just explained that he doesn't say 'pop' around me because I will make fun of him.
Whatevs...
Who the hell says Pop anyways?

Lost scheduled to return Jan 21st!!
Yay! a date set in 'stone' so now I can mark my calendar for the return of the best show on TV, LOST!!!
From Variety:
ABC is back in the “Lost” biz as of Wednesday, Jan. 21.
The fifth season of the fantasy-mystery skein will air Wednesdays at 9 p.m., after airing on Thursdays last season. The current occupant of the Wednesday 9 p.m. berth, ABC’s sophomore season drama “Private Practice,” will be relocated when “Lost” returns, ABC said Friday.
ABC is expected to make more Wednesday sked changes in the near future given the weak perf of 8 p.m.’s “Pushing Daisies” and 10 p.m.’s “Dirty Sexy Money” this fall. “Private Practice,” on the other hand, has been given a full-season order.
“Lost” will bow Jan. 21 with two back-to-back segs 9-11 p.m., preceded at 8 p.m. by a clip recap show.

Batman's biggest villain
I saw Batman again yesterday at the Imax theater. Palin is scarier than the Joker.
How to Woo that Special Girl
It's how Jesse got me!
Hey Mark, I think Jesse can get you some of this from the lab.

Look Jesse, it's Hedgewig! (not the owl from Harry Potter)
Inside Joke, but again, still universally funny I believe. This hedgehog is so very disappointed in you... so very disappointed.
Went to Indy today
We went to Indy today and drove through the area by the Speedway; if you've been then you know the area is dodgy to say the least. I think I saw this guy at a bus stop while waiting at a red light- or maybe it was a relative...

YES WE CAN!! Obama 44th President of the United States
After watching the election this evening and just now listening to Obama's speech, I am incredibly happy and optimistic about the future of the United States. I have never been so elated about an election result as I am right now. I hope you all heard Obama's speech because it was truly inspiring and uplifting. I also feel a sense of awe that I am a part of something so historical and so monumental. This is a defining moment of history and we get to be a part of it.

Amazon tackles "Wrap Rage"
What a great idea! Amazon.com is working with companies to eliminate those horrible clam shell cases on products and the twist ties and excessive plastic packaging on toys. This isn't just a great idea to help frustrated package openers but it is a great idea for the environment! They are replacing the bad plastics & waste with recyclable cardboard packaging that is easy to open. I really hope this catches on and everyone starts changing to this style of packaging. Who hasn't had to open a toy for a child only to find that it is sealed in the package like Fort Knox?! Seriously... the way toys are wrapped up and tied 20 different ways is ridiculous.
Way to go Amazon.com!
Here is a video link that shows a side by side comparison of the regular packaging vs the new packaging- it's pretty cool.
