rawr. im a bad bad panda i have neglected certain fans of this blog. i thought only one person read this but apprently more then one person does. awesome! lets see lets see. hmmm i watched a movie called frozen. the basic plot goes. 2 buddies have an annual ski and snowboard trip a year. this one of the guys brings his gf along too. so they have to bumm an extra seat ticket on the ski lift. only in doing so they dont get counted and end up getting stuck in n the ski lift for a week. and have diffirent methods of trying to escape. pretty decent movie. gory and it works on fear. not like the boogy man type of fear just the damm i hope that never happens to me type of fear. other then that i have been playing the recently released call of duty balck ops. a wonderful game. not as good as modern warfare 2. it kind of let me down. the perks are mixed around and you dont really get a good feel from them. all my fav perks are grouped together so i dont get to really choose my favs. the guns dont have a good feel to them either. you dont really feal the attachments or perks alter the guns like they should. and lets now talk about the online spawn system. SUCKS. i can not stand spawning walking 10 feet then having 3 enemies spawn right behind me. blows. zombies is pretty fun i guess. i never really played it on call of duty world at war so i wasnt a huge fan of it on this one. i do like the custom emlem and split screen online multiplayer. it alows me to play with alot more of my pals. but anyway enough of that. i really want to goto school so im looking for a diff job. the one i work now gets me by but its a split shift and it offers me zero time to goto school so i need to look for a night job or something that can offer me the option of school. i heart computer tech. its super fun to read about. and play with. so i might as well choose that as a career path right? right! in about 18 more days i get to see someone super! gona be cool. going on a mini vaca to seattle. i dont think i have ever been on a vaca since i got out of the navy......yup i havent even left town i dont think. damm. i need to get out more mabey. i have been all over the country and world and feel that ptown and vancouver wa are probably the superest places ever. superest. that kind of sounds flammerish. screw it. so i need to clean up around the house today and play some cod (call of duty) i have to work at 730 tonight. usually my shift starts at 9 but towards the end of the year we start to slow down on frieght and our plane usually stops in san jose but they are just trucking there stuff to la and that means one less stop and that means it gets to us all that much faster. the bad news though i have to work on my one day off and learn how to do operations for hawaiin. boo to that. atleast i wont be out in the rain. ill be in an office on the phones and on the radio. i get to work with jermey hes a cool cat. just recently met him. cool dude. dont know what hes doin working at my shitty lil company. seems like he deserves better. eh. whatever. alright readers time to sign off. :) sorry it took me so long to post. been texting ;)

l4yer cake
just got done watching l4yer cake with daniel craig and the guy that plays the headmaster at hogwarts. not a bad movie at all. i guess it won some indipendant film awards. i liked it alot. i liked the filmography of it. had some cool angles and distances that they shot it from. the very ending was good too. not your typical ending. i dont want to talk to much about it cause i dont want to blow it for anyone thats going to see it. but its one of thos british movies that has lots of double crosses and triple crosses and a huge plan to screw drug drealers over that dont fully get revealed tell the end of the movie. def good flick to watch though i gave it a 7.5 out of 10. it could have had some more violence and sex. they did have a smoken hot lil brit chick in some very very tasteful lingerie. but she was blonde. i am staying late to work trucks tonight and tomorrow night so i dont know if i will be watching any movies and posting about them. still a lil hung over i might lay down for an hour and get a powernap in. righto cheerio

legion
just got done watching legion. not a bad flick at all. i didnt see it in theatre because i thought it would be just another good vs evil flick. cliche kinda stuff. im not religious at all but the story of the angels is still interesting to me. i like alot of the actors in it. paul bettany played michael the arc angel. i like him alot ever since knights tale. he can really talk. if you get what im saying. his voice just captures the audience. and lucas black is good too. i have liked lucas since the war with kevin costner and then in sling blade. hes just got that thick texas drawl. dennis quaid as a minor part in it too. i cant say much for dennis i like him as an actor but i cant say alot about his movies. another actor who had a poopy agent i guess. the bad guy i guess is played by kevin durand (gabriel.) i like him too he played in smoken aces. he never has major talking roles but he plays a good big bad ass dude. and you can see some of the physical acting in this one. he cries. lol its hard for a tough guy to fake crying trust me. chuck norris' tears can cure cancer its just too bad he never cries. lol the movie was ok. they took an easy story and stuck a high budget on it to make an ok movie. the fight scenes we not all that great. some creepy parts having to do with ice cream truck drivers and kids. like i said in an earlier post take something innocent and sweet and ad some mild creepyness and your get really creepy. overall id give it a 6.9 out of ten . ( gigidy gigidy 69) not quite 7 material. its got a wi bit of action and a wi bit of creepy. it could be a snuggle up on the couch flick if your girl is easily scared. but im going to bed i have to be to work at 4. chow chow all ;)

stir of echos
so im watching stir of echos with the kevin bacon burger. my buddy told me it was decent i dont even rember it coming out so i will give it a whirl. pretty creepy so far. but anyway......my work is getting called left and right by diffirent airlines for redirect support. which is awesome cause we are getting adenoff and a ton of other planes that no one else can support. the bad news is we dont have the manpower for it. but what the hay. im thinkin about going to school. dunno yet. some people are supporting it some say its prob not for me. i wrk a ton and stuff. i dunno im thinkin bout it. lunch is ready. i will leave a review.........
.........wow that movie was better then i thought it would be. kind of the cliche ghost movie. ghost gets murdered or what have you and seeks someone out to uncover or avenge the death. but i like kevin bacon hes a pretty good actor. he hasnt made a ton of good movies. i guess he kind of got screwed he should have got a dif agent. and his son in the movie was good for the part. a super cute kid that can be creepy without even trying. and the wife was hot too. some brief nude scenes. lol but i have to get to work soon so you are stuck with the brief review. i give it a 7 out of 10

movie and beer. lots of beer
after a stressful day i want to drink myself to sleep. im starting off with beer and clash of the titans. ( the trailer for inception is on so cant wait for that to come out on n flix im never turning that one in.) anyway i never saw clash in theatre because it looked like it would suck. the trailer was awesome with the song and the monsters and the guy from terminater. but. it just looked like it was put together like crap and all the 3d movies coming out are shit. i hope tron isint. anyway ill watch that and give a review and then i will watch the invisible. its about a kid that gets the shit kicked out of him and then he discovers he is invisible or something. ill give it a whirl. alrighty afrodite. okie dokie. " heeeeerrreeeee weeeeeeeeeeeeeee.......go!" joker from batman..................................................................
.......oooooooookkkkkkkkkk. i ve got some drinking out of the way while watching this clash of the titans mess. there are so many good actors in this movie wtf. this movie could have been huge. it could have been great. i keep comparing it to lord of the rings or star wars or even harry potter (dont judge who doesnt love harry). it could have been that big but they didnt push it. it has so many good actors in it. they should have lengthened it out to a three part series like those movies. why ? because it allows alot better character development. it makes it so you become attached to characters and feel what they feel and get this huge pit in your stomach when they die. this movie was so rushed. you had no way of attaching to any of the characters that die. you cant relate or get to feel how the main character feels cause it all flows to fast. i think they tried to make the main character play a diffirent part then he was meant for. i think he could have played the part definatly. i just think the director did it wrong. ugh. it could have been a great movie but they ruined it. lol anyway onto the next one . anyway since im missing angela in a horrible way right now, im going to watch shes out of my league. i think they should make a movie called shes married and lives 2 states away. jk jk. im drunk i think. its been a while since ive drank/ its a good thing im a great typer. this could have come out jumbles. anyway onto the movie.............
.....omg. a very good movie. cute and funny. i just about died laughing at his friend having to shave his balls. thats good stuff. and when his other friend that is a ramp agent at the airport (my job) takes the huge pipe wrench out of his bag tug to bash the plane ( my dream) just funny as all hell. and by the way you know the scene from office space where the beat the crap out of the fax machine. thats the equivilent of what a ramper ( thats what we call ramp agents that load bags and cargo into planes and stuff) wants to do to a plane. i would love to take a 767 or dc8 apart with a sledge hammer. lol anyway. it was a very cute and funny movie. very well put together. im not to into blondes so i cant say much for the chick. the scene where shes in her bra and panties made my jaw drop mostly cause im drunk. i love the friends he has in the movie. they are hillarious and the mimick most of the friends you have in real life. just to an extreme. but anyway.......good movie............soooooo how about that die hard. guns and bullets and stuff. man i need to.....man up. dont worry i think t hat was the only chick flick in my queue. i thought 12 ing when i drink is bad.....trying to type is worse cause you cant understand the suttle vocal nuances or sarcasm and stuff. and i cant write for shit. lol ANGELA! sigh just had to say ur name. alright im going to bed i have to be to work in like 6 hours. fuck i hate taking naps lol i have to quit staying up late. .dammit i have to stay late at wrk tomorrow too. i hate thinking about work. i took a nap today and i had bad dreams about late planes and loading malfunctions. i def need a vaca or something. its horrible. anyway i hope all is well. pat the beags on the head

been a while again
man i have been so busy lately i want to apologize for not posting. i havent watched too many movies lately either. hawaiin airlines has been keeping me very busy. last week we had a cabin pressure failure and mechanicle issue that had me working 20 hour days. work sleep thats all i did last week. and i didnt do much sleeping. and then monday this week i get to work to load and push out a plane, and notice a giant hole in one of the wings that night crew neglected to tell anyone about. apperently on landing they hit a huge flock of birds and it ruined most of the right side of the plane so i pulled another 17 hour day. bleh and winter is on its way. its never fun to ramp at the airport in the winter. and the beggining of dec they are taking our huge awesome easy to use bagroom and giving us a small crappy impossible bagroom. i have a horrible feeling about that. its my job to make sure the flights are out on time. and its goig to be incredible hard with what they are asking me to do. man oh man. but on the plus side im putting record amounts of cargo out on the flights and an awesome ontime record. they are talking about sending me to south cali to help train some of the ramps on how to kick ass at loading hawaiian. the bad newsos i think i heard oakland was one of the citys. but its in south cali, mabey i can get some people in trouble down that ways. but its up in the air i dont know if its for sure yet. once again im sorry for not posting. ive been reading alot. and missing alot. but not posting . shame on me. 12 seconds is going away. ...... boooooo! i guess it had its hayday. alrighty i need a nap i have to go back to work soon. all work and no play is making mikey a very dull boy.

over the top (1986)
sooo today after i did some shopping at walmart i came home had some chimichongas and watched over the top with Sylvester Stallone. first off shopping was great. i do these undercover audits of my cargo side and my cheap ass company pays me in walmart giftcards for doing them. which arent bad i love walmart they have everything. but im so broke after rent gas and groceries. these gift certificates were a life saver. its wierd how when i had roomates i could afford to spend money on dvds and cds and useless crap and eat out. now i grociery shop and buy sponges and airfresheners to make my place smell like clean linen. whats happening! i bought new towels and ziplock samich bags and a neat dish scruber. gosh. i did splurge for a 24 pack of beer though when i was grocery shopping so i still have my dignity. but anyway onto the movie. sylvester cannot act whats so ever so its hard to take his movies serious. but this is another movie i watched as a kid on the floor next to my dads recliner. ARM WRESTLING MADNESS! they should totally make a sequal to this one. bring arm wrestling into a mainstream sport.lol im not saying im any good. but i have beaten my share of strongmen and in some drunken photos some strong women too. i love the movie. another one of my classic year i was born movies. i know im young kinda. anyway to my reader(s) lol what good movies came out when you were born?

the karate kid (new one)
so i watched the new karate kid with will smiths kid and jackie chan. i liked it. jackie is really getting old. and you can totally see bits of will smiths attitude and demeaner in his son. its just funny to listen to the kid talk and here will smiths attitude. a cute flick though. i saw some flaws in the special effects and stunt punches but a cute movie. i went and saw it at the discount theatre for 3 bucks and i brought the parents with. i used to live right next to them but now i moved all the way across town and my ma does not like it one bit. im her lil premie. and the only boy. so she has attachment issues. she cried so much when i joined the navy behind her back. poor mom. so i try to go over for dinner every sunday and watch some football with the old man. my dad and i's relationship is wierd. we never spoke really my whole life. i think we went camping once alone together and didnt say anything the whole trip. when i left for the navy he was sleeping. when i left for the middle east i think he woke up that time and gave me a handshake. its not tell recently that hes wanted to talk and hang out and stuff. i dunno wierd. i hope hes not dying or anything and not telling me. i like it though. its fun to watch football with him and drink a beer with him.

Love
i read something the other day that kinda got in my head alittle. a very depressing piece of literature. all about love. the 4 letter word that makes or breaks alot of people. ive heard alot of complaining about love. some people cant find it. others take it for granted, some simply have no problem with it. some people kill over it. some people kill themselves over it.some start wars over it (helen of troy) the dictionarys definition for the word love is " a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person." another person. not a thing. i guess i can not love movies. only like them alot. anyway. what do i think love is. i think love is an attachment or need to share yourself with someone else. you can love your friends because they make you laugh they listen to your ideas, they encourage you, they like you for who you are, you have many things in common. if that person wasnt in your life you would feel bad. you wouldnt have anyone to joke with. you wouldnt have anyone who gets your inside jokes. you would have no one you can relax and be yourself with. you would have to be prim and proper with people who arent your "loved" ones. i think marriage love is finding that one person thats your best friend. the best of the best of your friends that you dont want to lose. so you get married and your together forever. i dont think sex has alot to do with love. its more of a biological thing. hormones phermones and not to mention it feels good. who wouldnt want that. when you find that one person you really love, you want to share your whole life with them. thats true love. imagine if you will, you go on a beach trip, you have a picnic, collect shells watch the sunset, build a bonfire, look up at the stars. or go camping, roast some smores, cuddle up in the tent, wake up to fresh air and some beautiful quiet scenery. or lets say you go on a cruise to some distant islands, some beautiful place. or mabey you just goto a really good movie that leaves you stunned it was so good. now imagine you did all that all alone. not a single person to share it with. when you talk about it or think about it no one else can relate, cause no one else was there with you. you were all alone. it sucks. you have to have people you love. you have to have that one someone you can share stuff with. the people i hear most complain about love usually have someone. imagine going to work talking to co-workers then the min you come home you dont speak another word until you clock in for work the next day. imagine having no one to invite you out for drinks or go shopping or watch football with. imagine having great grand ideas and no one to tell them to. imagine being a good honast hard working person and not having anyone to be good honast and hardworking for. imagine being so anti social you notice you have little to no conversational skills. you have stuff to say, you just say it in your head and when it comes time for you to speak you come up with 1 word replys. imagine having no one to buy christmas presents for. imagine having no one to kiss on new years. imagine never having to accept a birthday gift. love is all around alot of people. some people take it for granted. love is.......a bitch lol. people just want to share there lifes and be important to someone. no one wants to be just shadows and dust (gladiator 2000) now go out and loves someone lol. this is depressing.
