Hopelessly LOST

by Pilipo on Jan.30, 2009, under Personal

John Locke will do what John Locke has to.

John Locke will do what John Locke has to.

So season 5 begins and Phillip for one is NOT disappointed.  The producers made a statement at the end of season 4 that more questions would be answered than asked in season 5.  So far they appear to be keeping their word.  I will not spoil anything for you if you are behind, but I have to say that John Locke is the ruler of the Universe and is likely in league with the Chuck Norris.  Thus he will do whatever he has to do to win.  Winning in this case means protecting the island and if you have to die to make that a reality…       so be it.  This guy gets so much stronger as he gets older he makes Benjamin Button look like a second rate Forrest Gump clone…   wait Button was already a second rate Gump clone.  More on that later, but for now if you have a pulse and are not caught up to current episodes then heed my warning:

JOHN LOCKE WILL DO WHAT JOHN LOCK HAS TO.

And that may include destroying you and the ones you love if you do not get onboard.

I was raised by Nickelodeon

by Pilipo on Jul.28, 2008, under Personal

This Sunday we stayed in bed all day and upheld our “Bad movie Sunday” ritual.  This ritual general consists of finding a flick with Lou Diamond Philips in the cast list (lead role?  EVEN BETTER!) and snack on Dorito’s or “Death by Chocolate” ice cream while occasionally napping.  It really is the greatest thing ever.  Well, this Sunday I got a wild hair to look up an old cartoon I used to love on Nickelodeon as a kid.  Unfortunately, I could not find it, but I did find this:

{Apparently some suit somewhere didn’t like this video being viewed…   I am currently searching for another copy.  I will keep you all posted.  Both of you}

After watching the dozens of intro’s captured in this amazing clip, I thought of dozens of other shows and movies that are a part of my nostalgic past.  After having a good laugh and exhausting ourselves by jumping around the room screaming about how thrilled we were to rediscover our past, my wife and I considered just how much TV viewing that really was.  And just in the 80’s! Remarkable.  I was basically raised by Nickolodeon.  Don’t get me wrong.  Nick was a great dad.  I just feel a little guilty that I got more excited about finding these clips than I have been since some time around Christmas of ‘89.

Anywho, I plan on getting as many of these as I can get my digital hands on and I’ll post as much as bandwidth allows.   Hope you enjoy.
