Ran into a bit of technical difficulties with the site tonight. I pretty much deleted the entire page. I tried to recode the whole thing by memory, but I’m not sure if it’s perfect. I think I fixed most of the problems though. I won’t really know for sure until I get back to my computer. If you see anything wrong with it, tell me and I’ll change it. That would be very helpful. I know the comments aren’t working, but I don’t know the code for that. No one ever left any comments anyway. I don’t know why I bother.

It’s a good day for the Eagles. Somehow the lowly Lions beat up on the Rams. Strangely reminds me of last year however when the Eagles got homefield advantage in the last week of the season when the Packers beat the Bucs. We still have to win 3 games. 3 big games. And playing the winner of Dallas vs. Carolina is not going to be fun, let alone any of the teams that made it this year. I wish there was a crappy Falcons team to beat up on this year. Something tells me Seattle isn’t making it to the NFC Championship. But when it’s all said and done, the Eagles are destined this year. They’ve chipped away for the last few years, and finally they’re the team that’s due. They battled out of their crappy start, and now sit atop the conference as the team to beat once again. The eagles saved the day in the Return of the King, and the Eagles are going to save the day for Philadelphia this year. But only time will tell. E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!

I can finally post again. After days of nothing but crazy MP3 sorting and organizing and renaming and adding and subtracting and multiplying and dividing and other functions, I think my Zen XTRA is finally ready to do its job. It’s filled to capacity with MP3s; only has 36MB free right now out of 30GB. My eyes have been put through a test, my mind has become weak, yet I will now be able to listen to 6500+ MP3s whenever I want. Sweet sweet technology. I took this bad boy into the car today. I spent more time deciding what to listen to then I did actually listening to stuff. And that was with only maybe 75 albums on it. It’s gonna take some getting used to, but I welcome it with open arms. Or at least the palm of my hand.

What a day… What a day. Christmas is always the fastest day of the year. Well that and your birthday. Between those two days, I feel like I lose 2 days of my life a year. That adds up. They’re normally good days though; however as always, things lose more of their amazingly awesomeness every year. Today was a good day. I got a bunch of stuff. I can list them all here, cause this is my page. Let’s see:
Now I gotta figure out what I’m doing with the stuff. I spent all day working on the MP3 player. Man, it’s tougher than just putting MP3s on the player. I’m still in the process of reorganizing all my MP3s, and that’s taking a long time. I spent practically all day doing it so far. I got most of the full albums done, and that’s a large chunk, but I have to figure out what I’m doing with all the single stuff. I also got to weed out all the crap. What I’m left with is 6600. Luckily the single stuff is only about 1700 songs. Damn. 1 by 1 it’s gonna take forever. What the hell, I got all week. Or until Monday. ::sigh::

Merry Christmas.
And happy eventual 7th night of Chanukah.
I know nothing about Kawanza or know anyone who celebrates it. Sorry.

I just watched Mitch Hedburg on Conan, and it made me wonder how good it would be seeing him live. He had some new stuff, but he also reused a lot of older stuff. For a casual fan he’d be hysterical, but for a gihugic fan such as me, he’d just be very funny. Comedy must be tough to come up with all the time. You have to be very observant with crappy stuff that happens all the time. Me and Mitch would be good friends. We should meet sometime. I’d be like, “Hey Mitch”, and he’d be like, “Hey person I do not know yet”. That would be funny. After that little conversation, I really think it would be cool to meet him. He’s gonna be in Vegas in mid-January, but I’ll be gone by then. That’s how things always work. When I’m in Vegas, he’s in the Philadelphia area, and when I’m in the Philadelphia area, he’s in Vegas. Maybe if we were better friends, he’d be able to do shows in the general region I would be in at the time. That’d be very sweet indeed.
It’s late. I should go to bed. But Jennifer Connelly is gonna be on Last Call, and she’s hot. I think I’ll wait up. Wait, here she is. Awesome. He brings his guests out right away without me having to hear his bs. She’s looking kind of old and worn out, but I think she just had a kid. She said she was breast feeding the baby back stage. That ain’t cool. That ain’t cool at all.

Lets see. I went to bed at 12:30 and woke up at 4:30. Left for the airport at 5 and got to the airport by 5:30. I was through the metal detector within 15 minutes, and was at my gate well before 6. This left me quite a while to wait for my 7:50 flight. Then we get on the plane, and have to sit there for an hour and 20 minutes because some stupid meaningless light was broken. We finally took off around 9:15, and it was the normal flight. I read Men’s Health, FHM (I got a new calendar), and some more of the Silmarillion. Maybe this time I’ll get further into it. It’s so interesting; just hard to read. Boy I’m tired. I took a little nap this afternoon, but I’m just a bit exhausted. Oh, and I’m so bored. For some reason, the Internet is so boring when it’s not on my computer.

It could have been the greatest movie I have ever seen… Yet I don’t know if I could ever watch it again.
The ending was… Too happy… Too sad… Too much to take in. AND I KNEW WHAT WAS COMING. As I watched everything fall into place, it just hit over again over again like waves crashing down on my chest. I couldn’t breathe; I couldn’t stop clenching my hands. I was told I couldn’t stop shaking my leg. Yet I do not remember. It was the best movie I have ever seen. Because combined with the Fellowship of the Ring, and The Two Towers, I don’t know if anything will ever match it. That’s how they have to be looked at. Sure they were released a year after one another, but they are a single movie. Filmed together, just as they were written together. As one. I don’t know if any movie ever had such an impact on me as what I just saw. There are just a lot of things I do not know right now. So much has flown through my head over the past hour. It ended at 1:00, and I’m still in a sort of shock. I mean a movie I have waited for for so long has come to an end. It’s as if I am saying goodbye to a part of me as I write this post. I don’t know if many people will understand, and I’m not sure if the movie will have such an impact on everyone else who witnesses it, but I know there are others out there. Others who heard about this movie many many years ago. Before the intensive filming began. Hell, before Elijah Wood was cast as Frodo. I remember. And there are more who have waited since they read the books for the very first time. Children who are now adults. But for some of us, it will all feel the same. Completion. That’s how I feel right now. Complete. As complete as I have felt in a long, long time.
It was hard not to cry during the end. I was told many people were leaving the movie in tears, but I could not figure out why until I was there. Maybe moreso than watching the events of final chapter of the movie in front of me; I cried because it was done. There was no more waiting. Nothing left to be done. Sure, I can wait for The Hobbit… And I will be waiting. But this was the first. And it did not disappoint. I don’t think I ever waited for a movie as long as I waited for this one, but I have waited for others. And they all failed in one way or another. They all let me down. But I thank Peter Jackson for everything he has done. He did not try to make a quick buck. He tried to live up to Tolkien, the master storyteller, as a master director. I did not see many other men crying… Maybe just one, but that was because I couldn’t stand up for 5 minutes, and they had all gone by that time. Sean Astin… You have a way of breaking me. First Rudy, and now this.
We arrived 2 hours early, and waited. And oh yes, people were staring. About 5 minutes after we got there, some guy who worked there came up and asked us if were waiting for the 9:30 and we said yes. And then he gave us a look, turned around, and shook his head in disbelief. I mean we were waiting in line beside people waiting for the 8:30 showing. But we had the best seats in the house. Because they were my seats. Amongst my fellowship. And I don’t believe I’ll ever forget it.
