Being Productive…

So I tried to make good use of my time today. Some may argue that my time was not made of good use. I spent a lot of time blogging, checking on some things online, participating in online forums and watching webisodes. That is how I spent my day. I sent some e-mails to friends, researched the Nintendo Wii, updated some of my paid PPP posts. Those would be the posts for which I have already received the money. I added a blurb of disclaimer information to each of those posts. I think at this time I can take them down but they have become part of this blog and I am not looking to sever those posts from the main body of the blog just yet. There are some opportunities that I really liked too, like the Photography Corner, the Beach Cruisers and many others.

At PPP they are doing a rap smackdown between Posties. The funny thing is that many posties are mommy bloggers (Not that there is anything wrong with that, some of those blogs are great.) and people who are as geeky as me. So imagine that in the next rap world tour. See I just made up something that probably doesn’t exist like a rap world tour. Anyway it is a very tongue in cheek smackdown that was started by Ted and then Ted called out one of the more prolific Posties, Colleen, and charged her with laying the smack down on Chad. Colleen gave Chad the business and charged him with smacking down Julie, the Postie Bride from the PayPerPost Wedding. I think Chad charged Julie with Smacking down Amy, the top earner at PayPerPost, she’s got almost $3500.00 in PPP money so far. So they set this up as a video and video response chain on YouTube. It is funny stuff.

I also caught up on what other Posties have done with some of the recent video opportunities. There are some fun and talented people out there who are very creative.

I caught up on The Office deleted scenes which were very funny. I also watched the Pilot Episode of the Fishbowl with Bill Maher, there are 12 episodes from this season to watch and they should be very interesting.

I also finished making the bowling video. I have all the pictures and the videos with the transitions all laid out, it is rendering right now.

Well, I have caught up on all things Internet for now, I’ve got to put up a few posts and then hit the bed for some sleep. Seeing as I had to pay for Internet Access today, I was going to make some good use of it. I have a feeling that tomorrow will be a long and unproductive day for me. Let’s hope that I get home when I am supposed to. Which will be 6:00pm. Fun stuff.

While waiting for the bowling video to render I watched a little bit of the TBS show called My Boys, not to shabby a show. You can watch the full episodes online.

Last night Monday night TV was really good.

This didn’t go up till today. I didn’t want anyone to miss it.

How I met Your Mother – Wayne Brady guest stars as, wait for it…. Barney’s brother. They are not brother’s from another mother, they are brothers from the same mother, who in the flashbacks wasn’t the best role model. It explains a bit why Barney is how he is. Wayne Brady is actually Barney’s gay brother and the episode was hilarious. This show gets better and better. I loved the dynamic of the two of them on screen as brothers. Then Barney becomes an uncle because his brother, the gay version of Barney has come out as… Monogamous. This crushes Barney’s world, he has nothing against gay marriage, he is against marriage in general. His quip about if the gays begin to marry than the straight people will follow the trend and marry too and spread their monogamy everywhere. It was very funny. The most priceless was when Barney’s brother and Barney were arguing and Barney’s brother said there is going to be a baby. The way Barney’s defenses were shattered was fantastic. The flash forward to the wedding and the baby in the suit was great too. And Marshall’s love for fruity drinks was classic.

How I met Your Mother – It was a great episode. I loved the discussion about the differences between singles and couples in a club/bar. I thought I was an old fuddy-duddy because I was getting old, apparently it’s because I’m part of a couple. Who knew? Once again I say it … This show is… wait for it… Awesome! So, Suit up!

The Class – More interaction among the cast, that was very good. A happy ending for Richie and Lina, also good. Some hope for Nicole and Duncan again good. And Ethan’s tentative arm on Kat and quickly removing it was great. They are really going to work that storyline for a while. I liked the episode a lot.

The Class Great episode. I think Richie is too cute! And the scenes with Ethan and Kyle and Holly when Kyle was relaying messages between the two – it was too funny!

Heroes – Rewind 6 months. We learn so much about how things happened. How Nathan’s wife ended up in a wheelchair, who Sylar is and how he got started, Why Eden works for Claire’s father, what happened to Hiro, A little of Matt, Who Jessica was, that is a more and more interesting power of Nikki’s. I learned last night that DL used to be on Buffy, he was one of The Initiative.

Heroes – This was a good episode. The promise of learning who Sylar is was a bit of a let down – we really didn’t learn a lot about him or why he is killing those with special abilities.

CSI Miami – Caine stands at oblique angles. He does it some more, and he does it a little more. He overuses one’s name again and again. I pretty much forgot what the episode was about. Yes, I remember now, it was about a soldier killed in Iraq, accidentally, but then deliberately covered up by the man who shot him. When are people going to realize that Caine will find the truth. He had some line last night that he likes to use over and over but I forgot it. I’m sure he will say it again next week.

CSI Miami – Well, it wouldn’t be much of a show if people just confessed when they saw Caine come into the investigation, now would it, Drew?? Geez!
Seriously though, I like this show. Drew and I have a blast making fun of Caine’s little idiocyncracies – like standing at funny angles, looking anywhere BUT at the person he is addressing, using people’s names like they might not know he is talking to them. It’s fun.
