Happy Father’s Day, Dad
Posted by Sunday on Jun 21, 2009 at 8:11 pm in Daily SpaceTo demonstrate both the science of genetics and what I have to endure in the category of “emails from my dad,” here’s one I received just this hour, in total context, unedited:
Waching on Scifi channel:
Beowulf (1999) starring Christopher Lambert (man-crush time!).
Weapons Master of medieval Castle in unnamed realm gets killed by evil trans-dimensional gooey-skinned monster.
Funeral scene (cremation, bonus points for no stupid burial):
Sliding body into fires of Eternity, much chanting.
One last look at nice old guy’s face … then … ZIP UP PLASTIC BODY BAG!
WTFF?
* Extra bonus points: most of music track is awesome techno shit! Fuckin’ nice touch!
quag reviews.heh
Addendum: And the goddamn zipper was PLASTIC too, didn’t even bother with a wrought-iron one.
(FYI: That first word I typed there is Germano-Gothic for ‘watching’ … I’m a cunning linguist!)
BTW: Hammered with at least 30 screen-flashes during movie that on 7-7-09, Scifi Channel officially becomes SyFy Channel. Tag line on each splash-screen read: “SO MUCH MORE!” Yesirree, like more James Bond SyFy movies… laughed so hard I spit out some precious pizza. Don’t worry, I picked it up and ate it.
The other day, I noticed that you look just like your dad. You also look just like your mom. Genetics can offer us the sweetest of gestures sometimes.
