Kurt’s Blog: Shame on Those New York Parents

The new poster for “Catching Fire” is out…if you want to see it, text PHOTO to 77000!

This is Despicable

Apparently, some New York moms have figured out a way to cut the long lines at Disney World…umm…they are hiring disabled peopl to pose a family members so they and their kids can jump to the front of the line.

“On it’s a Small World, the other kids had to wait 2 1/2 hours…my daughter only had to wait one minute”…bragged one mom.

That ticks me off.

This Though, Not Despicable

Detroit has finalized plans to erect a 10-foot-tall Robocop statue in the middle of the city. Yellowstone, Grand Canyon…Robocop statue. So many great sights (and I’m totally being serious here).

Toy Story News

Toy Story is huge at our house….both our kids looooooooooooovvvvvvve Toy Story…(except for Toy Story 2…Zurg is scary apparently). Was excited to hear that they’ll be doing a Toy Story Halloween special in October (obviously). AWESOME!!

Bill Hader Leaving SNL

It happens every few years with Saturday Night Live…one of their best actors leaves the show to pursue movies. Someone always comes along to replace them…but the depature of Bill Hader is a bit disheartening. His impressions were incredible…and Stefon is still the funniest thing SNL has done in the past 4 years. Bill Hader

The Saddest Series Finale Ever

It came from one of my favorite TGIF shows while I was growing up…Dinosaurs.

Oh, how did that series end? Oh, just with Earl Sinclair ruining the Earth…and they all die at the end (well, it pretty much shows the dinos demise)…

So, a comedy show loved by 12-13 year olds ends with the Sinclair Family stuck inside their house…as the snow begins to imprison their home? Real uplifting.

 

AWESOME is as AWESOME does!
