Secret of Monkey Island Gifs

So I was digging through some old discs and found these gems. I got these off the interwebs many many moons ago. Enjoy!

Some Harry Potter 'questions'

There are plot holes so large you could drive a truck through them. Here are a few in 'question format':

• If Fudge would not believe Harry in the Goblet of Fire that Voldermort was back, why not just look into his memory (like Harry and Dumbledore do on many occasions to many different people's memories)?
• Why didn't Harry just kill Voldermort on the many occasions when he had the chance? Harry knew what the score was and that nothing would end till one of the them was dead.
• When Harry and Dumbledore apperate back at the castle after Dumbledore is weakened and they heard others coming (and Dumbledore seemed to already know what was going to happen)... why didn't they apperate back out?
• That bothers me too. Dumbledore always acted as if his death was apart of a plan and you never really knew if he died or not cause of the way he kept talking. In the end he did die and for no apparent purpose or plan. It was kinda dumb.
• If the luck potion and the timeturner were both so powerful why weren't they used at REALLY critical moments of Voldermort's rise? For that matter why didn't Dumbledore keep the Sorcerer's stone (or a potion of it) too?

I understand these were 'kids' books written by an a first time writer but there were some big holes there...

Funny things my mom says...

• DW-40 = WD40
• UBS = USB
• On the line = Online
• Matt = Nathan

Friday Thoughts

• You know, Harry Potter is all bunk... Given the description of what 'types' of people go into each house JK Rowling jumped the shark when she made Hermione (obviously should have gone into Ravenclaw), Neville and Ron (should have been Hufflepuff) go into Griffyndor. BUNK.
• Harry's aging in the movies disturbed me too. They really should have made an effort to make these films closer together.

Spring is in the air

• I got Poison Oak REALLY bad on my arm last week and it is only now finally going away. (slowly). It happens every year when I do the first yard work of the year.
• In May Chris and I are running a KickStarter project for a board game we are making called Rise of the Rock Star. Go check it out.
• I'm working all the way up in Brideport now and won't be back in the metroplex (proper) until October. The drive is a beating.
• Home Depot's appliance department has really shrunk lately. We went to blow a couple of grand there the other day and we couldn't find ANYTHING we liked, there was little to choose from.

Friday Thoughts

• I figured it out. If you look at the history books you will find Democrats were the race-hatin' whites who fought desegregation. Eventually human rights won out and there was nothing Democrats could do to stop it. HOWEVER, in their defeat they figured out a way to keep those races beneath their jack boots... government assistance.
• The Democrat party began with the hand outs in the name of 'kindness', keeping an already beaten race dependant on their 'white overlords'. In the guise of helping they have reduced a race of people to dependants.
• Meanwhile the Democrats paint Rebublicans as heartless when Republicans simply want more people on their own two feet (having jobs, paying taxes, etc).
