It's Getting getting Hot hot in Cali

California is on fire.....really.

Sheez.

Vulcans - not the Roman kind

So Caffeinated Muslim wrote about she made a reference to Vulcans (well a specific Vulcan) and her friends (who by the way are not geeky) did not know what a Vulcan is.

--- If you want the whole bit of what a Vulcan is please refer here: Vulcan Wiki page - It's not the best, but it's the easiest to get the idea of it.

Anyways, so I wanted to put this out to my fellow co-workers.

What is a Vulcan?

I got:

- why don't you Wikipedia it?
- Toucan Sam?
- something from Star Trek? (Which I would like to let you know that person cheated.)

Oh and my friend Lam first guessed it was a god of a religion. Which she is correct. (Roman Mythology - Vulcan)

Anyways I digress, Bushra really put it right that you can't assume people know about Star Trek.

I didn't know that Vulcan was also a Roman god. (There are too many Greek/Roman gods for me to remember and this is why I would never be good with a polytheistic religion.) And there are people out there that don't care for Star Trek. And there are people that don't care for either. (see all my co-workers).

So I guess it comes down to what kind of geek are you?
(apparently none of my co-workers are any kind of geeky. sigh.)

Get Carried Away

The tagline is cheesy. Probably 75% of this movie was pretty damn cheesy. But I enjoyed watching it nonetheless. I think it was for the fashion which the show is known to have ridiculous fashion.

Bird in your hair? A giant flower on your shoulder that takes up half your body? Oh well I mean there were some nice things, like the shoes. :)

I mean really I guess I have no soul because apparently there were many girls who laughed and cried at the movie.

That's right I am a jawa.

Le sigh.

I Am A Stabbing Robot

So recently, I've been addicted to the show '30 Rock.' I haven't been getting much sleep because I've been watching season one on dvd. See this is why I don't watch shows via dvd. I end up watching the whole season in a day and I end up feeling like a zombie the next day because I didn't sleep. In lieu of sleep, I watched 30 Rock.

Anyways, it's great writing, a great cast, and all around quirky. The cast isn't young and beautiful, they are all off-beat and have impeccable delivery.

Some of the best lines I've heard ever are from Tracy Morgan's character Tracy Jordan.

"Live every week like it's shark week."

"I am a stabbing robot."

"I love this cornbread so much, I want to take it behind a middle school, and get it pregnant

"Always dress like you're going to be murdered in those clothes."
Those are some of my faves.

If you haven't seen it, I don't want to give more away so I'll just say watch it. It's one of my new favorite shows on TV.

Oh, how I heart you TV. [hugs]

Atonement

After an awesome day of celebrating my friend's bridal shower, I came back to finally watch Atonement. I have been meaning to watch it but I never got around to it.

So, I have decided after watching this movie that I don't want to watch any more sad movies. It's okay if a movie has sad bits in it, but it must not end making me feel depressed. That movie was all in all very depressing making me feel like I just spent 16 hours watching a Korean soap opera that ended poorly for the beloved couple. Why be sad? Why watch movies that are just going to make me feel sad? I don't feel any more enlightened from the movie, I don't feel like I learned anything new or at all. So that is my conclusion. NO MORE SAD MOVIES. Yay.
