There is a movie about to come out called Apollo 18. I don't know what it is about, but my guess is that Tom Hanks and Kevin Bacon have wrecked the spacecraft for the 18th time. I don't understand why NASA keep letting them go to space. Bruce Willis and a bunch of oil drillers messed up their shuttle less than Hanks and Bacon did. 13 is the only one of the Apollo movies that I have seen. It's possible that different astronauts wreck the shuttle in each movie. I hope that this time Ben Stiller is one of the astronauts who does not make it back from space alive.
Of course I could be completely wrong about the plot of this movie. Maybe this is the 18th Rocky movie, and acting coach Carl Weathers has finally gotten top billing. Apollo died back in Rocky IV, so either he will be boxing in heaven or will be a boxing zombie. I think either script could work. Zombie boxers would explain why Mike Tyson ate Evander Holyfield's ear.
This post really took off once you hit Rocky
ReplyDeleteYou are so sunny!! You know, my girls learned about Tyson and Holyfield on Phineas and Ferb, and Rachel talks about it all the time--to the point that I sometimes think I should be wearing protective earwear.
ReplyDeleteI wish my blog were ever this funny. You are a hero.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if ears taste like Deer Dawgs?
ReplyDeleteIf ears tasted like deer dogs, everyone would be eating them. Moma loves to eat baby ears, but then, she used to be a boxer.
ReplyDeleteThis was ready to publish on Tuesday, but I didn't want to post two days in a row, so I scheduled it for Wednesday. For some reason that did not happen. Every time I checked my email that day, I was distraught that the post was still without comments. As I contemplated suicide for myself and/or my blog, I checked to see if the post had been published. Of course it had not been. Those dark hours of grieving for my lack of comedic ability were wasted. I survived that fit of depression thanks to your timely comments once the post was finally published. My self worth is based solely on the positive feedback that I get here. No pressure.
Dude, my agent knows I don't like sequels( X Men First Class was not a sequel) so I was not up for Apollo 18. I was pumped about doing the 13th edition of the Apollo series because Ronny Howard signed on as the director. Also, there was great writing for example:
ReplyDeleteJack Swigert(KNB): So long, Earth. Catch you on the flip side.
Marilyn Lovell(Kathy Quinlan, Oscar nom): No, Henry! Those people don't put one piece of equipment on my lawn. If they have a problem with that, they can take it up with my husband. He'll be HOME... on FRIDAY!
Jim Lovell(Tommy Hanks): We just lost the moon.
Jim Lovell: Houston, we have a problem.
Jack Swigert: Uh, well, if anyone from the, uh, from the IRS is watching, I... forgot to file my, my, my 1040 return. Um, I meant to do it today, but, uh...
Fred Haise, Sr.: I know why my numbers were wrong. I only figured it for two people.
Jack Swigert: Maybe I should just hold my breath.
Anyway dude, you get the picture. The 13th edition of The Apollo series was considered the best one. 13 was up for nine Oscars and won two.
Hey, you can do six degrees of me in three degrees, Dude, Spuds, and The Oracle Of The Pig.
Dude,I wish I could have seen the look on Spuds' face when you wore his Big Lebowski t shirt. Thanks for helping me with the joke.

"Moma loves to eat baby ears, but then, she used to be a boxer." That may be the funniest thing I've ever seen in print! So glad you didn't end it all!!
ReplyDeleteI view your blog fifteen times a day and yet I still cannot sleep. So you need to change your qoute on your profile to causing insomnia one page view at a time.
ReplyDeleteI may not leave a comment each time, but the 450 blog hits each month should help your self worth and count as positive feedback.
In the immortal words of Mac Sandlin: Dang, playa. You are firing on all cylinders. That bit about Moma and the ears and being a boxer=comedy gold.
