The Perfect Pyos

I've started rather late this year with presento-pyo collecting but the constant fear of being jobless and a recession contributed to questioning whether there'd even be a Christmas this year.

The good news is, I'm still excited about Christmas because I have the Office Treat ideas all sorted out and stores are displaying lights and everything festive.

Oh, and I started buying a few things. There's a lot of cool things you can get with $20.00. It's quite nice.

The hunt for presents led to the discovery of two of the most awesome present ideas for a couple of you guys.

Here's one from www.tshirthell.com that's tops for Bunji (tops...t-shirt. Ha.):

For CLEE:

A little something to make the Apple Iphone appear awesome because it sure as hell isn't now, and I'm not just talking about your cracked one either, I'm talking about all Apple Iphones and Ipods.

I especially like that picture of the frying.

As we all know from one of my slogans, bacon makes everything (taste) better.

Currently listening to: "Your Eyes Open" by Keane.

In your heart you LOVE APPLE and the iPhone and iPod...

Wrapping in in bacon-designed cases is just topping on the case for you...

Do you know that the iPhone outsold Blackberry and it de-throned the RAZR as the number 1 selling phone in the US?....

Don't worry.. your secret (your LOVE for all things Apple) is safe with me.

(oh, any negative response will be taken as EVEN MORE LOVE for Apple)

(any positive response will be taken as your continuing LOVE for Apple Inc.)

(NO response will be taken for DEEP love for Apple)

(response negative, positive or other - from anyone other than you will be takes as ongoing LOVE for Apple Inc.)

(neutral response will be taken as TOTAL LOVE for Apple)

Poor, poor little CLEE.
Your delusions and smuggery are even worse than I thought.

I do feel sorry for you.

Dear Beetchie,

Since you won't be my sugar momma when you are making money, you can just buy your own iphone and ipod touch your damned self.

This Week's Obsession (s): June 2012

Wallander. Alright, so my obsession with Tom H. has not ended at all and has worsened to the point where I watched "Midnight in Paris" in fast-foward and have been traumatizing H1 and I myself almost every night for the past 2 weeks by watching "Wallander". In doing so, we've discovered a great crime drama and have more reason to obsess over the fantastic Kenneth Branagh. He's amazing as if that even needed to be said. Beautifully filmed (a beautiful setting in thanks), traumatic (I said it again because it is) and one very blonde, curly-headed Magnus who is constantly getting yelled at (well, he's...not the smartest, so...yeah) makes for a great series built on some stellar performances by K. Branagh. Season 3, where are you?

Luther

Some where along the way, I was reminded that I had to start watching "Luther". It's been on my radar for a while but I just never took the plunge. I don't know why. Stupidity, perhaps? Yeah, that seems likely. But luckily I started watching and while (like "Wallander") I think there's some predictability to it, thanks to the brilliant, intense acting job by Idris Elba and the very dynamic relationship between Luther and Alice; an amazingly soundtracked series and so much bloody murder, there's always a joyful sense of torture I give myself by watching the series. I miss Ian though, I have to say and have found a new love for Justin but I'm crushing a lot on Alice. Ruth Wilson is just uber creepy in the role and I love her. I'm making my way through Season 2 now but again, Season 3, where are you?!

Sherlock

Well this was actually a last month sort of obsession but as you can see, there's an entire British television viewing trend going on here. I've never denied my love for everything British and this BBC series by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss solidifies everything incredible about a well-written British drama. Hell, it's just incredible television no matter what the country. Sharp writing, Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch with updated visuals and feel make this one hell of a ride. I can't praise Benedict and Martin enough for their brilliant portrayals of Sherlock and Watson. The dialogue is quick and the sequences are fast-paced and again, so very clever that it is staggering. It's a brilliant show that once more...has me waiting for a Season 3. I sense conspiracy!

The Legend of Korra

Oh Look! An American made show! And a great one at that. Picking up 70 years after The Last Airbender, I had my reservations but really, why would I be hesitant? It is made by the same creators and my fears were completely unfounded. I mean, I miss Sokka and Toph but with the amazing Lin Beifong (Toph's daughter) who kicks major ass all over the place and a really strong cast of characters backed by some amazing voice-actors, this show is a must watch for everyone. MUST. WATCH. No fillers and action sequences that require rewinding because they're just so good, and a story so engaging that I am going to be cursing next week after the 1 hour season finale. Cursing. And crying. For Season 2.
