420: Celebrating Pot

420 means pot and tomorrow is Marijuana Day. So I figured that I'd talk about pot aka Mary Jane aka Marijuana.

Now I don't smoke pot at all, but I don't mind those who do. I've seen some people who smoke pot and they are very well adjusted. In fact, they can hold jobs and have relationships. This idea that Marijuana somehow is the cause for people being stupid is just wrong.

I find it funny, though, that people consider celebrating pot. I could understand if they were celebrating the legalization of the drug, but that hasn't happened yet. I am not going to stop them from celebrating because they aren't harming anyone and are just having a good time.

Finally, I don't think the Marijuana should be illegal and am surprised it hasn't been legalized yet. Actually not really surprised because some companies would see their business drop if pot was legalized.

Have a Happy Marijuana Day tomorrow, my readers!

S&N: The Change 1

I opened my eyes and saw that Samara's arms were still around me. She was the only one I would fully trust to be by my side in this war against The Net and its Machines. Getting up slowly I looked out the window and saw that the end hadn't happened yet and the birds were singing a merry tune.


I started to hum a pop song and decided to go downstairs to make breakfast for us. Karma, the secret organization against The Net, had teamed me up with Samara and we had quickly become lovers. Something about being comrades was the reason I had found for becoming so close. Seeing my Mickey Mouse waffle maker I decided I'd use it.


"You're using that piece of crap again, Naz." Samara said and I smiled. My full name is Nazilla but most people consider that a mouthful.


"Yes, your girlfriend is being young again." I said and cooked us some waffles.


She sat at the table when I had both of our waffles ready. "You know if an Elemental came here they would reconsider you being part of Karma." She said and took a bite.


"Yeah, the highest people in Karma would really visit here. Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire would all come here." I replied. "Why don't you try and find a Machine with a soul?"


"If I do that the war might be over very soon." She said and we both nodded.


After we finished eating we got out maps and plans. We spent over an hour figuring things out.


"So what is this death wish about?" I asked.


"We're attacking a small The Net outpost. It isn't too big, but sources say it's part of a new testing facility for The Net." Samara said.


"Yeah, but why us?" I asked. "I know at least one other team that's closer to that location than us."


"The other team is probably doing something more important and I think they've had a kid."


Nodding I looked at the map. "Maybe after this is all over we can adopt."


Samara smiled and we kissed. After that touching moment I got ready quickly. The elation I felt from her made me know I could fight anything when she was around. The Net would go down and then we would be together until we died of natural causes. Dying of natural causes was something anyone in Karma wanted.


"So who's driving?" I asked.


"Me." Samara said.


"Come on, with a few drinks I'm sure you'll sober up to the idea of me driving."


"You buy after the fight."


"You're on." I smiled and got into passenger side of the car. "Netty and its Machines are going down!"

Statue of Liberty Stamp

Now there are messups by people like me who don't really have an important job. Don't get me wrong, informing people about movies and entertaining with my stories are things I enjoy doing. However, if I get something wrong, people wouldn't be surprised. And, by people, I mean the majority of people.

A US Stamp was recently released of the Statue of Liberty. Now this wouldn't be making the news (nor would I be talking about it) if it was of the actual Statue of Liberty and not a replica.

Yes, people whose job it is to check those mistakes missed it. When I fact check, I look at imDB or Wikipedia (and sometimes do a long Google search like I did for my The Terminators review). But, I assume, these people are supposed to do lot longer for fact checking.

So, to anyone whose job is highly dependent on fact checking: Do your job well because not all people are idiots.

Extras (Part 2)


In this set of extras I show you a deleted scene, an alternate take, and bloopers!
