William Shatner is the best!  You’ve got to love an actor who doesn’t take himself too seriously.

 

So funny!  Parks And Recreation has improved so much.

The Road

Pretty intense movie starring Viggo Mortensen. God, I hope my family and me are not around if the world ends up like this movie.

Rep. Barbara Lambert, a freshman Democrat from Milford, CT, is playing spider solitaire in the photo, while Rep. Jack F. Hennessy, a Bridgeport Democrat who has served in Hartford since 2005, is playing regular solitaire.

Nothing else need to be said.  These jokers really should not stay in office for more than two terms.  No more career politicians!  This photo just makes me sick.  The guy sitting in the row in front of these two…  he’s on Facebook, and the guy behind Hennessy is checking out the baseball scores.

This photo has been identified as being real by the Associated Press (AP).

Best Commercial Ever

Best commercial ever? I think so! I’d buy anything from this guy. I don’t even need a mobile home and he got my interest! LOL!

White House communications director Anita Dunn says former Communist leader Chairman Mao is one of her favorite philosophers.  This bothers me.  Why Mao?  Mao is said to have been involved in the murder of over 70 million people while establishing his communist regime.  What’s wrong with historical leaders from our country such as George Washington, Ben Franklin, Martin Luther King, shall I go on? This stinks. Bad.

This is exactly the way people here in North Carolina act when there is a light dusting of snow! LOL hilarious!

Disney’s A Christmas Carol Train Tour came to Spencer, NC on October 9th and 10th and we got a chance to see it.  My boys and I arrived in Spencer on rainy Saturday morning around 11:00 am.  The train was parks in front of the North Carolina Transportation Museum in downtown Spencer.

Disney's A Christmas Carol Train Tour

Disney’s traveling advertisement for Jim Carrey’s motion capture feature is a pretty decent day’s adventure if you have about two hours available to spend waiting in line.  There were so many people!

The crowd of Disney fans and curious folk to see the Disney train

The line did move fast and the crowd of people were well organized in good Disney fashion.  If you have been to Walt Disney World, you know how well Disney handles large crowds and is able to move them pretty easily.  We were immediately told by a Disney Cast Member where we could find the end of the line.  The line was divided into three roped sections.  A sign at the end of the line (or the enterance to the first roped section) stated that the wait time to get on the Disney train was two hours!  Immediately I thought that my two boys would not be able to take such a long time in line, but I decided to take the chance.  Luckily, the line moved pretty quickly.

There were even Christmas carolers dressed in 1800 outfits!

I saw this message posted on the back of one of the Disney Christmas Carol Train box cars.  What is not supposed to be humped?  My mind is always in the gutter.

What am I not supposed to hump?

What am I not supposed to hump?

After a two hour wait in line, we are finally going inside the Disney Christmas Carol Train!

The wait was worth it!

The wait was worth it!

There was a place in the train where you can get your photo taken and morphed into a Christmas Carol character.  Here are the results:

After visiting the Disney Christmas Carol train, we went across the street and ate lunch at a nice little hamburger joint called Our Place Cafe.  I had chicken salad on toasted rye bread.  It was really good!

Here is the inside of Our Place Cafe located in downtown Spencer, North Carolina.

On our way back home, I decided to head up to Burlington (which is near our house) and go to the Starbuck’s near Elon University and pick up some groceries at Lowes Foods and a movie at the Redbox kiosk.  The boys and I had a pumpkin spice latte.  I love those drinks!

Quinn Dahle is a really funny comedian.  I like him.  Conan really had a great show last night!
