Apparently, this is a Chinese produced film that was intended for a western audience so they wanted a well known western actor in the lead role. I imagine they had to roll up dump trucks full of money to Matt Damon's front door to get him to sign on.
A bunch of Chinese industrial kingpins, backed by the government who thinks it might make China likeable if they flood the world with propaganda, have decided to go into the movie business and are spending tens of billions of dollars on it. Hollywood happy to sell-out. The Chinese are willing to shoulder big losses on these flops too since it is a patriotic national initiative with government sponsorship, so expect to see a deluge of crap this over the next decade no matter how bad they are.
A few of my friends went to see it yesterday. I was invited to go but declined and from what they told me after they saw it I saved myself some bucks. Here is what some of them told me after seeing it. I told them all the movie looked pretty awful in all the trailers I saw for it. I admire their dedication to go see this for us. They are all brave man.
Dirty, uncivilized white man goes to China and learns the errors of his ways through exposure to superior Asian culture, becomes the hero and tries to save the day. The uneven plot, which gets pretty stupid at times, doesn't help and saying Matt Damon was miscast for this is an understatement. He doesn't look comfortable in the fantasy setting and whatever accent he was trying to use disappears after about 20 mins into the film. Just wait for it on Netflix or whatever.
It's Dutch but self explanatory. Only funny for people with the mental age of 15 that giggle on "He said a naughty word!". Like me. And now I gave the video away. Oh well.
Now, something actually worthwhile. A great sketch about Danish. It's in English.
Sold! You know are the proud owner of part of Sean's journal. That was fun last night. Chocolate moose *sp* was good... I misspelled it and its too early for my brain to care yet....

My favourite random language facts are both in French and Spanish.
In Spanish, the word for a fish is 'pez'. But that's the word for a fish that's swimming around and still alive. If you go to a supermarket or restaurant and buy fish to eat, it's called 'pescado'. Which is a past participle of the verb 'pescar' meaning, 'to fish'. So pescado is 'one who has been fished'.
In English, most of our words for meat are from the French - pork/porc, beef/boeuf, pullet (archaic now)/poulet - while the names of animals that give us meat are mostly Saxon in origin - cow, swine, hen, etc. Because after the Norman invasion, the French nobles were the ones who ate the meat while the Saxon peasants were the ones who raised the animals.
What is "funny" Is that some words their sounds in italian or french and spanish is weird to other countries. For example A words to them might sound like a cuss to other countries and only by the sound and not by the meaning.
We are a weird civilatation
I still think the candies when I hear PEZ though "smiles"
In french (which is my birth language and main one) there is a lot of words that are pronounce in english weird, at times I hear my roomate trying to speak french and it looks liek they are suffering from the jaw loll
Meduse is the french word for jelleyfish, its pronounce 'mayduz' sort of, don't really know how to 'pronounce' write but its as close as I can think of.
I love seafood and I love the sea so a lot of things formt he sea I loved to learn who they are said in english, since my friends are anglophones and when we go to restaurants they ask to have the menu in english I got to adapt lol
Scalop -petoncle, squid-pieuvre, shrimp-crevette....only thing i find hard on here tho is the fact that I can't put the 'symbol' on top of the letters that are with it. Like in meduse the first 'e' would have a symbol in petoncle the same, its like a bare that points forward. Not sure if you understand what it means.
As for spanish I tried to learn it, I loooooooooooove that language but I failed, only know a few words but I still love to hear it speak, its so beautfiul, sounds like a song when spoken :)

I have been watching the news about the biggest Dam in the USA and how it is about to burst open. America should take a page from our rivers play book. In Canada we bullied our rivers into submission decades ago. They know that just one false move will get them wrapped up in a pipe and buried forever.
It's a tossup between lack of repairing the infrastructure and the shit ton of rain we in California have gotten. It has seemed to be storm after storm since January, and it's still not letting up, as we expect more storms to roll in this week. California water systems just aren't built for the pounding we've taken, as we rarely see to this much rain. I mean, we were in a pretty bad drought, and I want to say the last six months or so, we've gotten half of the state out of it. That's a lot of rain needed to accomplish that feat. Far more than can really be accommodated. Plus the lack of money that went towards repairs. People have been warning about the possibility of the spillway failing for years and nothing had been done about it. So, I mean, if this is what it takes to get the government to wake up, then, well, it sucks, but sometimes bad things have to happen to open peoples eyes. I'm hoping things don't fail completely like many think they will, because I have friends who live in Oroville, where the dam is, who would lose everything if it flooded.
The government has had a specific approach to problems. "Kick the can down the road", has been the main approach to "dealing " with so many important issues here. Lives should not be lost or people lose all they have because of a bunch of idiot paper pushers in government.
I am crying a little today. If the dam breaks, my favorite grower will lose his crop of GSC. I want to scream at people. I love that grower, he is magical lol.

So I stopped all the pain pills I was on that I never abused but it was time to get off that shit. The dreams on that stuff. You close your eyes and it's like the tunnel from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, although more abstract. I think I gave birth to a new Elder God in my mind when I actually managed to sleep. (If a giant, rotting, black dragon appears out of the sand in the Sahara and starts turning people into amorphous slug-people that gather humans for his mass consumption, while breathing insanity inducing plagues from his mouth: I'm sorry.)
Vivid dremas for sure. I told you to not see that many horoor movies before bed and lessen the chocolate "sneak stealing some hidding it in her shirt"
Give it time love soon the side effects from the pain pills will leave your system and your dreams will be calm again. You are so strong and I am so very proud of you.
Happy V day my sweet love!! Thank you for being in my life and being next to me in every step we take holding my hand and smiling to me!! I always be by yourside!! Forever!!
I love you so much deep and strong!!
Go Canada!

So, word is that now when American's travel overseas some are claiming to be from Canada and wear jackets with the Canadian Flag on it. There has been an increase in sales on Canadian appeal that has our flag on it. I suppose this will last 4 more years.

It's very simple, I am with someone. Taken. I am not going to cyber with you. I am not going to engage in sexual talk with you. If you come at me with this I will not respond. If you want to be my friend these are the simple rules. I like making friends here. But I will not cross these lines I have set up for myself.
People should be more respectful towards you both. Everyone on this site knows that you're in a committed relationship since you both make it known with your kismets. (I mean if that doesn't make it any more obvious that you're with someone, I don't know what will.) However there always has to be that one person who has to overstep their boundaries and not be respectful to you both. They should really be ashamed of themselves.
Its not only about us bit tp every sing;e couple in here. Even if someone singe had put that they rent interested on cyber and sexual comments that should be respected but not all people have common sence and the do not use their brain to see that the cause problems.
I know in my heart soul and mind where my heart belongs too and i am comminted to him only "snuggles to Dakotah"
I told ya being a hottie is going to bring ya trouble lmao. You are too damn sexy for your own good. But I will film you and the goddess for n extra fee. Just don't mind the heavy breathing in the corner :}

I posted a month or so ago about Mr. D. A duck we found or I should say found us. We asked around the neighborhood and checked with vets because he clearly was a pet. We found his owners who are away for a few months and the person who was watching Mr D said he did a great escape. It was decided that Mr D would stay with us till his owners returned, so he wintering with the Injuns. I made him a stall in the barn all his own which he loves but we let him in the house about every day ( after we lay down a lot of plastic on the floor, ducks poop a lot). Any ways where is a picture of Mr D taking a swim in the tub which he loves to do. He likes the water a little warm.
I think that mr D will do the trip from His owners house back to you every six months or so. How the birds change places to go to warmer ones. Mr D will do that from one house to the other. Something like from his house to the vacation one and back.
I can see the horses and wonder dog expecting him every time.
Bu nonetheless he is one lucky duck to fall on you love. He could froze to death with these outside temperatures if it wasnt for you. Duck popsicle.
