Wow, now I’m at a dozen weeks of this summarizing stuff.  Should I summarize the summaries?  In Sumeria?  Or some Mary should do it for me?  or maybe some marryin’ fool?

LOLcats Summary

Really, these are the best of the week.  Go visit them yourself!

Movies seen

• Kickin It Old Skool - Even I will admit, pretty cheesy.  But I loved watching it.  Story is about a 12-yr old breakdancer that hits his head during a routine, goes into a coma and wakes up 20 years later looking to revive his Funky Fresh Boys to get his girlfriend back and best his old rival.  It actually had a few tie-ins to Breakin’, one of my all-time favorite 80’s movies.  For one, it had Christopher McDonald in it - you may remember Chris from Breakin’ as Special K’s talent agent.  Secondly, the choreography for the movie was done by none other than Adolfo “Shabba-Doo” Quinones - he was Ozone from Breakin’ as you might recall.  Lastly, Jamie Kennedy (the lead guy who got in a coma), during his “retraining” tries to do this thing with a broomstick that’s right out of Breakin’, major props to Michael “Boogaloo Shrimp” Chambers.
• The Contract - decent movie, worth the time.  I would probably say that about any movie that Morgan Freeman is in.
• The Secret of NIMH - I absolutely cannot believe I haven’t seen this movie.  I’ve known about it forever and just assumed I’d seen it.  I feel Don Bluth animation is second nature to me - from loving Rock-a-Doodle to spending all my allowance playing Dragon’s Lair (and Space Ace, of course although not so much), to the animation sequence in my all-time favorite movie Xanadu, and of course several of my other favorites such as Pete’s Dragon and The Rescuers.  I feel better now that I’ve seen it and now I can answer the trivia question of “what does NIMH stand for?” if I’m ever asked.

Story

We’re driving on the vacation and our daughter comments that she has to use the bathroom.  Jaden, 5, ever the curious one, asks “do you have to go poop?”  We all laugh a little and she says “no.”.  Then he probes a little deeper and asks “do you have to go pee-pee?”  More snickers from the car and she answers “yes, Jaden, I have to go pee-pee.”  A few seconds later the brilliant Jaden notes, “but you don’t *have* a pee-pee.”  The car erupts.

The “banzai” one is my favorite. It almost seems staged or Photoshopped because the cat is so perfectly captured in mid-air.

I dunno, the “Dude, wait, what?” one still has me chuckling. But you reminded me of a semi-waking-dream I had last night of something I could do on my blog, and that had to do with photoshopping. Mainly of me feeding my ego by photoshopping my face in various humorous or awesome situations. I think I’ll start on that today for the first-of-the-week post. I’m cheating a little because I’d already done this specific photo before, but I can see it being a series. And then others can photoshop themselves into the same photo (I’ll post the original) and it’ll be a sensation! Then I woke up.

Oh, and an alternate caption for the “Invisible Sandwich” one would be

OMG it was THIS BIG lolz

Kids crack me up. Well, funny critter pictures do, too, to be honest. Today? You’ve given us both! Thanks!

Sue, you’re welcome. This morning, Jaden told me about his dream last night while we were waiting for the bus. He said something about Chex Mix and his sister and ants in his room. That reminded me to check in his room for any spilled Chex Mix
