The Way I See It...

...there are a few options for me and Boots to sneak into "Watchmen" next year. I've come up with about a dozen plans, but these are the three that will probably be most effective:

1. We climb onto the roof of the movie theater with the aid of grappling hooks, find out which theater it's being shown in, remove one of the roof tiles, and slowly lower ourselves into the theater. We'll do this before anyone else gets into the theater, when they're playing stupid music trivia and Coke ads, so we won't be noticed.
2. We fake being of age using beards similar in design to Maffey's Stormont costume. Part of this plan may involve creating a fantastic band called the "Soggy Bottom Boys."
3. We hire one of our friends to distract the cashiers with a showtune while we sneak in, unnoticed. (Let's hope Osama Bin Laden doesn't know showtunes).
At least one of them is bound to work, as long as the cashiers don't read my blog. This won't be a problem, since no one reads my blog anyway.
The attached pic is the new "Watchmen" movie poster designed by Dave Gibbons, the legendary artist who created the comic alongside Alan Moore, the greatest comic book writer of all time. You can check out Boots' blog for more pics from the movie. The poster depicts the murder of the Comedian that kickstarts the story.
With only six days left, it seems like I'll be spending this weekend working on the Odyssey Project instead of less important things like eating and sleeping.

So... what do you think we should do as our video's main theme. If you have any ideas, I'll be happy to write up a script. Also, we can do it at my house.

So we can do it at your house now?
Since I'm changing the theme of my blog from homecoming to mortal/immortal relationship (that should've been the theme from the beginning, but I was being stupid), we can't do that.
IMO, we should do burial rights for the dead and reenact Elpenor's death, although possibly make it funnier by drawing out drunken scenes. Theme comes up at the end, when Odysseus and crew bury Elpenor. What do you think?

If we're doing it at your house, you have to call me.

Hey, also don't mention my uncle because I'm not sure what my parents might think of me telling anyone. Item number two: do you need a ride?

I need your phone number because I can't find my student phonebook

You know what? I don't think the great blogosphere is the best place to be discussing my "uncle" (wink). I'm just glad I didn't mention his name.
