Lord of the Rings! Finally went to see this last night! After watching the mutants of Austin come out of the woodworks to see this movie, I must say that ISN'T the best movie of the last couple years as some have put it, but definately in the top 5. The casting was perfect, action was unbelievable and Elf chicks are hot (see Liv Tyler). The computer generated special effects were top notch, I mean, it's not like I see a Cave Troll everday, so I know it's not real. Talk about some Middle-Earth badasses: Stryder and Legolas. There were too many scenes to mention on how cool these guys were. Just see it. (Although some have had regrest about it [cough cough CARROZZI cough cough =P])

Here's a picture of POTG, The General and I outside of Mandelay Bay in Vegas. I think this was our last day there. Over the Christmas break, I think I'll finally post all the pictures and tell all the tales of Vegas. Basically, we squandered hard earned money on slot machines until our fingers went black, our eyes went red and then the sounds of Vegas drowned us till we fell asleep.

Phillipino lady almost had me cornered...! A couple weeks ago, this Phillipino lady down the apartment complex asked if I was Phillipino. I said no, but my sister-in-law was, so she hands me a flyer about some Phillipino Pride Day down at the Capital and urged me and my family to go. I forgot all about it and now, it's so hard to get back to my apartment because she always sees me and bugs me about missing it. I have to sneak past her so I don't get molested, but today I was almost caught. When I slowly krept down the stairs, she pops her head out the screen door and was about to say something when her phone rang. I took the opportunity to haul ass, but I felt like those kids in Jurrassic Park with the Raptors behind them..

The EYEZ of Texas. I'm sick of that place they call California. Funny thing, the last night I was there El Presidente' (A Japanese Warlord) of the Company invites me to grab dinner with him and two of the visiting Engineers from Japan. I say why the hell not and we go to this Italian Restaurant where the H-Dog orders up glass after glass of Merlot. I'm already on edge because it's The President of the Company i'm breaking bread with, so the red wine helped me from saying anything stupid...or so I thought. Close to the end of the meal everybody starts pulling out their money, but El Presidente says he's got it. I swear, I heard a gong being hit and both the engineers bow their heads to El Presidente' muttering beautitudes to his glorius existence, while the H-Dog is sitting there with a shit eating grin on his face. Something like, "I got you next time bro." came out of my mouth. I either thought of saying it, wanted to say it or actually said it. Hopefully he didn't hear it, because it was loud in there.

Anyways, San Jose International was packed. It took me nearly an hour and a half to just get through the ticket line, where I was then put on standby and didn't know if I was gonna make it back to Austin yesterday. They found me a seat towards the back of the plane, next to the bathroom. I was suddenly in charge of answering this question from other passengers: "Is anybody in there?". Hell if I know, I haven't been counting. Sheesh.

Getting ready to swing into Cali.. Another week, another dollar in the Golden State. I plan to make the most out of this trip, which includes:

1.) Taking the hotel towels, silverware (they booked me in a room w/a kitchenette..!), coffee machine and coat hangers.
2.) Order as many Pay-Per-View movies as I can and stick it to the company.
3.) Turn on any item that requires electricity to tax the already overburdened California Energy Grid.
4.) Sleep.
5.) Eat food.

Wahoo.

So much slumber, so much sleep. Dude, I'm still tired from Friday. I got approx. 4 hours of sleep Friday night then had to wake up early and do some stuff before I headed out to San Antonio for GRADUATION FEST 2002. The entire event was from 12:30 PM to 5:00 PM. As we were sitting in the rafters discussing the differences between Hell and a Graduation Ceremony where you only know one person, my ass fell asleep. But anyways, trivial things. The Jake's grandfather fell ill Friday and is still in a coma. He tells me that he is responding well to the treatment and still don't know the exact nature of the problem is. I hope he recovers soon, which i'm sure he will.
