Doctor's Stethoscope

No caption necessary.

#Jason

I know Wrath of Khan is widely regarded as the best (and it probably is), but for whatever reason, whenever I sit down roll on some Undiscovered Country, I always find it so gosh darn enjoyable.

I sometimes sit and wonder if #OffRoad is the best game of all time.

#WatchMojo didn’t even have #2001 as an honorable mention for best movie of all time #WTFMate

#WashingtonDC was great. I ate at #Popeyes three times! Oh, and I saw some other stuff


These were the best I could do, prior to the eclipse, holding my iPhone up to my binoculars. #Supermoon #SuperBloodMoon #CountdownTo2012

M-O-O-N that spells eclipse



Haha Cholesterol Control Act #QuantumLeap


Taught the kids some #DoubleDragon


Anyone want to go halvsies?

#IHadADream I was a major mob boss (think Tony Soprano). The FBI made a surprise appearance at my house to search the joint (they do this all the time). I smugly said, “feel free to look around all you want” as I pretended to not be interested and I sat on the couch reading the paper (do they still make “papers”?). Anyway, I always kept the place “clean”. They truly were never going to find anything, except . . . for the sledgehammer that I would always keep in plain sight, leaning against the wall, just daring them to examine (but they never did). The head of the sledge hammer was crimson in color, due to the dried blood that I intentionally don’t clean off.

New Logo

I still remember seeing #Scream at the movie theater. I must have been about 15, the perfect age for the #WesCraven classic. #Rip

Ziggy, the supercomputer from the future in #QuantumLeap (10 years into the future which is now our past) could operate at a Trillion floating points per second, which is actually pretty right-on for where computing ended up being (although we are now way past that). But I found it funny that Ziggy’s Random Access Memory was one Jiggabyte.


Another one bites the dust


Why does my inbox keep getting cluttered with emails about something called clutter?

They guessed the date wrong in #IAmLegend . . . idiots.  I see now how #BatmanVSuperman will entangle with #SuicideSquad . . . clever DC/WB. #WillSmith


Every few years I see a movie that has me hooked in the first few minutes or even seconds. The last one I saw a couple years ago was #SoundOfMyVoice then this weekend I saw #ExMachina

My biggest beef with Back to the Future Trilogy was when Doc first poured the beer into Mr. Fusion, then dropped the can in. Why didn’t he just drop the can in there in the first place? #glaring #CompletelyRuinsFranchise

One of the benefits of having a project at 15th and McAlister . . . this is only blocks away #31Flavors


And by the way, #OscarIsaac is about to blow up

#IHadADream I was being chased by the biggest Transformer in the universe. Mark Walberg kept calling him “Biggie”. He called him that, not because he was big but because when said Transformer died, we were all sad, Puff Daddy Style. It turned out Biggie wasn’t really trying to kill me, because when he took human-form as Gary Busy, he tried to inject me with Sodium Pentothal.

Public Stewdity

#JadeGarden now accepts #Bitcoin
 


Finally saw #GoneWithTheWind . . . don’t know why they say THAT was the best movie ever? #CitizenKane and #WizardOfOz were each ten times better


#AlwaysMakesMeLaugh


#FlashbackTo1889 I knew #BoJackson was good at baseball. The dude defied gravity and ran along a wall in one of the most memorable defensive plays of all time, not to mention he had been rookie of the year. He wasn’t too shabby with the stick, 30+ homers and 100+ ribs in a season. Four consecutive homeruns in four consecutive at-bats. All-Star game MVP . . . the list goes on and on.  I remember once asking my dad if Bo was as good at football as he was at baseball and my dad simply said “He’s better”.


Remember that TV wrist watch from the Dragnet movie?  Circa “too long ago for that kind of technology to actually exist but it did”



McDonalds employees won’t go outside before 5:00 AM to change their drive-thru menu from dinner to breakfast items because it’s “not safe for someone to be outside in this neighborhood before 5:00 AM” They tell me this while I’m outside before 5:00 AM


#JosephGorgeousLevitt was on an eppy of #QuantumLeap. Pretty sure this was pre-Angels




Me and boys have been playing #SuperMarioBros3 nonstop for weeks. I’m convinced, now more than ever, that it was truly the best #NES game . . . maybe (you can’t make me fully commit to something like that)


#JasonDay breaks Tiger’s record at Whistler’s Mother

#IHadADream it was zombie apocalypse. Everyone from the neighborhood came to my house to bunker down for a last stand. I sent my Jonah, My 8-year-old son, to the store in the pickup truck by himslef. I think we needed Doritos.

Halvsies

#ProudDad



The red square rules us all












My taste buds exploded seconds before my head exploded


I know me an Matt had this conversation literally 20 years ago, but think about #MichaelBeihn and the quadrilogy. If I was stranded on an island #TomHanks style, and I could only take 4 movies with me, I think the 4 might be T1, Aliens, Abyss, and The Rock.



Anyone want to go halvsies on a Lily Camera #Lub


20 years later and I’m still not sure whether Clarissa’s pet alligator was supposed to look fake or be fake. Clear cut comic genius in either interpretation.


I’ve got a fever and the only prescription is more Peña


Anyone want to go halvsies on a sensory deprivation chamber? #Lub


Hootie from Hootie and the blowfish is coming to Topeka! Do you think blowfish is singular or plural.


Thanks Tom

#IHadADream there was a “salt and pepper” colored bunny in the bath tub. So I scooped him out with an inflatable bucket on a stick (I wasn’t about to get no rabies). As I headed for the front door, I noticed that it was actually a brown bunny and a black skunk that had morphed together as one. Then, before I got to the front door, the two animals split apart, returning to a skunk and a bunny. I flung them onto the front porch and quickly slammed the door shut, quietly thanking God I had not been sprayed by the skunk. Then Isaiah opened the front door and grabbed the skunk by the tail and started swinging him around. I started to yell for him to stop, but I was paralyzed with fear. I was so scared I could feel myself starting to wake up and I was once again trapped in that familiar in-between state where I was both lying in bed and standing in the living room watching a skunk get terrible-toweled. I tried to yell in both places, but I couldn’t.

When I saw this sign . . . I could hear in my head that song from #DieHard when they opened the safe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-8tMD77bvI



Dusted off my copy of Volcano and watched it with the kids. Thought it was funny that they had to make #AnneHeche in her 20’s look like a sophisticated scientist so they gave her reading glasses because every 20-something I know needs reading glasses. I know, I know, I shouldn’t make fun of a film that tackled such tough issues as divorce and racism . . . and this:
What the heck, it’s youtube clip day I guess https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6u5nfoTCMgE



How many different times in how many different movies can we see Bruce Wayne’s parents killed? #BatmanVSuperman

Me and the kids dug out the old #8Bit this weekend



You ask for miracles Theo I give you the FBI #DieHardOfTheWeek

I like pretending to shop at the produce section of the Kwik Shop so I can cool off. 110 heat index amiright



Saw McFarland, USA. It’s by far the best cross-country sports movie, I’ve probably ever seen.

#heathledger was probably the best ever, but he didn’t pull off the eddie haskell grin quite like #jaredleto



Trailer for #JoyMovie looks weird but also a heavy dose of #JLaw so sign me up

No caption necessary . . .

#IHadADream that my favorite store was going out of business so I kept waking up before my alarm (in real life) so I could go shopping before it closed for good.

#Amazon to the rescue. #QuantumLeap


I almost accidentally bought this on #Amazon . . . for obvious reasons


Wait, I’ve seen this guy before. #Overboard


Speaking of . . .


I’m ready to coin this as the “Russell Carpenter Trilogy” not to be confused with the man whose is actually #RussellCarpenter . . . that’s unfortunate

Speaking of Carpenter, #Watchmojo rightly has #Halloween as the No. 2 #JohnCarpenter movie of all time. #TheThing


#WayToGoDude


#FanTheory of the Week: Raptor trainer, #ChrisPratt is the grownup “That doesn’t look so scary” kid from Montana


Just read #TheGirlOnTheTrain in three days. It was a lot like #GoneGirl but it started slow and finished strong instead of the other way around like Gone Girl. Can’t wait for the movie

#Ecto-1 Need I say more


Why is the Double Cheeseburger so much better than the McDouble? Kent’s still right . . . It’s the Cheese!!! The Cheese!!!


So me and the boys are binge watching #QuantumLeap and in an episode that aired in 1990, Al tells Sam he was watching #SuperBowl Thirty in his present time of 1996, which was obviously “the future” to us viewers in 1990. He described it as a thrilling game, and mentioned that the #Steelers are down by three in the 4th quarter. So I looked up Super Bowl Thirty, which, remember, took place over 6 years later. It was a thrilling game. The Steelers were down by three with four minutes remaining in the 4th quarter . . . is anyone else scared?

Seriously, they randomly picked a future super bowl, guessed that the Steelers would be good, guessed that it’d be a good game, and guessed that they’d be trailing by three in the fourth quarter!

Seriously!!!

Is it blasphemous to say Golden Oreos are better than a regular #Oreo

#IHadADream I was roaming around with a cop who’s armed but when entering the Asian Mob area of town, he must disarm or the snipers will get him. Good thing he speaks Mandarin. I needed electricity to brew a cup of coffee with a portable coffee maker. So I went to the campground restroom. It was winter (so the restroom was “closed”)
