FIFI'S THOUGHTS
3/8/2009 7:22:40 PM
THEY HAVE A LOT OF NERVE STEALING MY SLEEP WITH THIS DARN DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME
Allright I'm a bit cranky this morning because well I lost an hour of my beauty sleep because of this daylight savings time change. AND UNLIKE MOST OF YOU BECAUSE I'M A WAITRESS I HAD TO WORK TODAY. Anyways since I'm now working the morning shift I had to get up early AND IT WAS LIKE PITCH DARK OUT THERE, NO SUNSHINE AT ALL. GRRRRRR BECAUSE LAST NIGHT WAS SATURDAY NIGHT AND I WENT OUT WITH MY BOYFRIEND BIFF TO WATCH A LOUSY LATE NIGHT MOVIE I WENT TO BED A LITTLE LATE LAST NIGHT AND IT SEEMS LIKE I HARDLY GOT ANY SLEEP. I MEAN SIX AM WHEN I HAD TO GET UP FELT JUST LIKE FIVE AM BECAUSE OF MY 'BODY CLOCK' NOT BEING USED TO GETTING UP AN HOUR EARLIER. Why the heck do they even have this darn daylight savings time? \It made sense during the War or when they had that 'Energy Crisis' during the 70s but today I don't see why they can't keep the darn times the same throughout the whole year. It almost makes me want to move to a place like Hawaii (If only I could afford to live there) where they don't change their clocks twice a year.........
You people happy that 'Mumbai Millionaire' won Best Picture? It was a good movie but I was kind of hoping 'Frost/Nixon' took the Oscar......
Speaking of recent movies I saw skip 'Crossing Over,' I guess the movie deals with immigrants but there's so many substories and so much confusion it was just hard to follow.
The next movie I saw 'Harvard beats Yale 29-29' which is shown in the local art movie theaters, well let's say it actually made me feel inferior being a Quincy Grad watching a movie with a bunch of braniac Ivy League alumni who have like an average IQ of 150(probably twice as high as say the average IQ of the audience who saw 'The Watchmen') but the movie itself was kind of drab. I mean the players were actually talking about some nondescript football game 40 years ago in which Harvard made a miracle comeback being down like 16 points with a little over a minute left to tie the score with heavily fsvored Yale.
I'M SORRY BUT WHO REALLY CARES IF HARVARD TIES YALE EXCEPT THE SNOTTY STUCK UP ALUMNI OF THESE TWO SCHOOLS. PLEASE YOU'LL NEVER EVER SEE HARVARD, YALE, OR ANY OTHER IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL COMPETING FOR A BCS CHAMPIONSHIP...THAT TITLE WILL ALWAYS BE RESERVED FOR SOME YAHOO SCHOOL WHERE PLAYERS TAKE CLASSES IN ADVANCED FINGERPAINTING. I WANTED TO KNOW HOW MANY FORMER PLAYERS WHO WERE NOW SAY CROOKED WALL STREET HEDGE FUND BILLIONAIRES OR RAN THE STATE DEPARTMENT OR THE CIA OR WERE IN BUSH'S CABINET OR ARE CURRENTLY IN OBAMA'S CABINET OR EVEN WHO RAN A FORTUNE 500 COMPANY THAT MAKES CABINETS.....
BUT NO THE ONLY 'CELEBRITIES' I SAW WHO PLAYED IN 'THE BIG GAME OF 1968' WERE HILLBILLY ACTOR TOMMY LEE JONES (OMIGOSH HE WAS FUNNY IN THE MOVIE AS HE IS IN REAL LIFE. YOU PEOPLE REALIZE HE WAS AL GORE'S ROOMMATE AT HARVARD? TOMMY LEE SAID THAT AL KNEW HOW TO PLAY 'DIXIE' ON THOSE OLD PUSHBUTTON PHONES WHICH WERE JUST COMING OUT TO REPLACE THE ROTARY PHONES IN THE LATE 60S), YALE QB BRIAN DOWLING BECAUSE HE WAS THE INSPIRATION FOR THAT GOOFY 'BD' JOCK CHARACTER IN GARY TRUDEAU'S LIBERAL DOONSBURY COMIC STRIP. TRUDEAU WAS A YALIE IN 1968 AND I GUESS DOWLING WAS THE BMOC AT YALE BACK THEN, AND FINALLY CALVIN HILL WHO HAD SOME DECENT SUCCESS IN THE NFL WITH THE COWBOYS, AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT FATHER TOLD ME, HE PLAYED IN THE NFL BEFORE I WAS BORN.....
SO IN A NUTSHELL 'HARVARD BEATS YALE......' WAS LESS ABOUT WHAT BECAME OF THE PLAYERS AND MORE ABOUT WHAT ACTUALLY
HAPPENED IN THE 'BIG GAME' WHICH I COULD REALLY CARE LESS ABOUT BUT THEN A LOT OF FORMER HARVARDIANS AND YALIES WOULD SAY 'BOOLAH BOOLAH BOOLAH' TO ME AND TELL ME THEY LOVED THE MOVIE BECAUSE THOSE PEOPLE ARE SO STUCK UP ABOUT THEIR PRECIOUS ALMA MATERS. ACTUALLY ONLY YALIES GREET EACH OTHER WITH THE TERM 'BOOLAH BOOLAH BOOLAH' I HAVE NO IDEA HOW HARVARDIANS TALK TO EACH OTHER. AT LEAST THE 'YALE MAFIA' WHICH HAS DOMINATED THE PRESIDENCY SINCE 1992 HAS ENDED. OMIGOSH THE CURRENT PRESIDENT IS A COLUMBIA GRAD, SISS, BOOM, BAH....THAT MAY EVEN BE WORSE.....BEING A YALE GRAD SURE DOESN'T GUARANTEE QUALITY...I MEAN CLINTON AND BUSH ARE ALUMNI? PLEASSSSE....MY FAVORITE PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME, RONALD REAGAN WENT TO SOME SMALL LITTLE HICK SCHOOL CALLED EUREKA COLLEGE.
NOW A MOVIE YOU PEOPLE MAY WANT TO SEE IS 'EVERLASTING MOMENTS,' A GREAT SWEDISH FILM ABOUT A LADY WITH AN ABUSIVE, HARD DRINKING, PHILANDERING HUSBAND AND SEVEN KIDS WHO LIVED ABOUT A HUNDRED YEARS AGO AND, AFTER WINNING A CAMERA IN A LOTTERY, AND BEFRIENDING A KINDLY PHOTOGRAPHER, LEARNED TO BE A WELL KNOWN PHOTOGRAPHER HERSELF. JUST A GREAT STORY EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A LITTLE BIT ON THE LONG SIDE. I SWEAR, BESIDES BIFF AND I, I DON'T RECALL SEEING ANYONE WATCHING 'EVERLASTING MOMENTS' WHO LOOKED UNDER THIRTY, AS OPPOSED TO 'THE WATCHMEN' AUDIENCE WHERE IT'S RARE TO FIND ANYONE OVER THIRTY. DO PEOPLE JUST USE MORE OF THEIR CEREBERAL CAVITY AFTER THEY TURN 30?.....NEXT WEEK I'LL TELL YOU PEOPLE ABOUT 'THE
WATCHMEN.' LINES WERE JUST TOO LONG THIS WEEK. ONE MORE THOUGHT ON 'EVERLASTING.....' FOR ONCE IT'S NICE TO SEE A SWEDISH FILM THAT DOESN'T DEAL WITH PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN COMMUNES, SIT AROUND NAKED IN A HOT TUB, AND DO 'NOOKIE NOOKIE' WITH ALL THEIR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS ALL THE TIME.........
I'M SORRY I'M A BIT NOSY BUT THAT'S MY NATURE.....AT THE RESTAURANT WHERE I'M A WAITRESS I OVERHEAD TWO PEOPLE OBVIOUSLY GOING OUT ON A BLIND DATE...THEY WERE BOTH LIKE MIDDLE AGED AND DIVORCED....ANYWAYS HE SOUNDED SO 'LEFT BRAINED' I'M SURPRISED HE DIDN'T TALK TO HER ABOUT HOW MANY 'WINGBEATS' HIS FAVORITE PET HOUSEFLY MADE PER MINUTE....JUST SO DULL.......AND SHE WAS SO 'RIGHT BRAINED' I TRULY WONDER IF THERE IS THERE IS ANY TIME DURING THE DAY IN WHICH GIVES HER VOCAL CHORDS A REST...JUST SO TALKATIVE AND NOTHING THAT COMES OUT MAKES SENSE...IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A SUCCESSFUL DATING EXPERIENCE TRY BEING MORE 'WHOLE BRAINED' PEOPLE.......
SPEAKING OF BEING TOO RIGHT BRAINED I GUESS I CAN ALSO GET TOO ABSENT MINDED....AT 'HARVARD BEATS YALE.....' I WAS PUTTING IN QUARTERS IN THE PARKING METER AND A DISTINGUISHED LOOKING FELLA POINTED TO A SIGN THAT SAID IT WAS FREE TO PARK AFTER NINE PM......HE THEN WALKED AWAY AND SAID 'BOOLAH BOOLAH BOOLAH', A FORMER YALIE, AND I LOST THREE BUCKS....MORE THAN ENOUGH THOUGHTS FOR NOW.........
