2015 A to Z Challenge: I for Indiana Jones, etc.

For this year's A to Z challenge, I thought I'd have a little fun. So the theme this year is laughter. My friend, Serene Heiner, started a trend by manipulating my cover from Pushing the Wall and making it appear that I'm calmly running away from things. It's taken on a life of its own and I've got enough for each letter, with some left over.

I'll also add other things that make me laugh starting with each letter.

Letter I is for Indiana Jones, one of my favorite franchises growing up. Then they made the fourth movie and--well, I'll stop right here. I want this to be humorous, but bad movie making is not a joke. Anyway, this one was put together by Aaron Shimbeck. Thanks, man!! (He also did the one for the letter F)

Other things that start with I that make me laugh:

I is for how I start to dance every time I hear the words, "I like big butts..." comes on. This cracked me up, if you catch all the window nuances.

I is for Ice Cream, and how I wish I had a little kid so I could pull this on him.

I is for Introverts, because we rule!!! (By ourselves, ideally)

I is for Irony. Another irony? Did you know that irons are not made from iron? That makes them not only ironic, but non-ironic as well.

I is for when people told me "there is no 'i' in team," and I would respond, "Yeah, but there sure is one in win!" Well, this would have been even more clever.

I is for Darth Vader realizing what Boba Fett was really saying.

I is for all the iApple products out there.

I is for... well, IDK. This:

I is for trippy Illusions. I didn't even need to lace this with LSD or anything!

I is for the lack of Instruction manuals that come with kids.

I is for Intelligence, and the benefits at work when you have it.

I is for Intelligence, and the detriments at work when you lack it.

I is for Internet Explorer. It may get a bad rep, but admit it, it is by far the best browser to download other Internet browsers.

Which leads to I for the Internet, plus further proof that Egypt was way ahead of their time.

I is for Introverts again. I was going to put something about eye = 'I', but I think this is fine.

I is for Irony again, and it's Imitations of art.

I is for one of the most iconic lines from Star Wars. I'll just let you figure it out.

2015 A to Z Challenge: H for Holmes, Hovercats, etc.

For this year's A to Z challenge, I thought I'd have a little fun. So the theme this year is laughter. My friend, Serene Heiner, started a trend by manipulating my cover from Pushing the Wall and making it appear that I'm calmly running away from things. It's taken on a life of its own and I've got enough for each letter, with some left over.

This letter is almost coming out late. I've had a bit of a long, bad day. Long story. Just in time to cheer me up, I got another photo from Serene of one of my favorite shows (because of its sheer brilliance), Sherlock. So here I am, with Sherlock Holmes!

Also, H is for Hovercats.

Other things that start with H that make me laugh:

H is for Dr. Hedgehog, may he find his tormentor, destroy him, and find peace in his life.

H is for Hairstyles by Dad.

H is for Hair on your screen. Pick it off! It might be a chest hair or something!

H is for happiness. Okay, this didn't make me laugh, but it did make me reflect. I'm adding it here.

H is for the real life Harry Potter trio.

H is for Hairy Potter.

 H is for Hats, and how most of them come with a brim.

H is for Hate. Hehe, I laugh at his hatred cuteness.

H is for the Heroes in our lives. Thank you, brave dinosaurs!

H is for Hobbits, though this is actually an LDS religion joke. If you aren't LDS, don't worry to much if you don't get this. If you are LDS and don't get it, you need to brush up on your Tolkien.

H is for Horcruxes, and what might have made He-who-must-not-be-named victorious. Whew!

H is for Harry Potter and Hunger Games mashups.

2015 A to Z Challenge: G for Goldbloom, etc.

For this year's A to Z challenge, I thought I'd have a little fun. So the theme this year is laughter. My friend, Serene Heiner, started a trend by manipulating my cover from Pushing the Wall and making it appear that I'm calmly running away from things. It's taken on a life of its own and I've got enough for each letter, with some left over.

I'll also add other things that make me laugh starting with each letter.

Letter G is for Goldbloom--as in Jeff Goldbloom, the actor in Jurassic Park using this iconic scene where he is leading a dinosaur away with the use of a road flair. 

Now, Jurassic Park was written by Michael Crichton, so it is somewhat a smart movie. Jeff Goldbloom also starred in another special-effect heavy movie called Independence Day that isn't.... quite as smart. No, let's be honest here, it's completely stupid! Like, hooking up a laptop to a foreign spaceship (did they use USB? Just how universal IS USB?) and then creating a virus in a couple of minutes to fully immobilize its shields by uploading a virus. Hello?? That ship was half a decade old, you don't think the mothership has got around to updating their virus protection or anything? They have advanced space flight with superior weaponry and yet IT never got around to patching the mothership? What did they upload anyway to cause things to get so unstable, Windows 95?

"Hey, guys, wait for me!"

And I have to admit, I LOVE IT!! That, along with Armageddon--another dumb, stupid, idiotic, unrealistic action movie--are my two guilty pleasures in cinema enjoyment. 

Other things that start with G that make me laugh:

G is for Geek inspired keychains.

 G is for remembering that Facebook is not Google.

G is for remembering what Bill Gates said to high schoolers, "Be nice to Geeks. You may end up working for them. We all could." 

 G is for fat Giraffes.

 G is for Google again, and their colorful search engine screen.

G is for these two Grandparents, who I want to be in about fifty years.

G is for Growing up, and remembering the joy I had when I bequeathed a Calvin and Hobbes collection to my son.

G is for Guys with purses. (They aren't purses, their European!)
