Captain's Log:
Another slow day at work. Hardly anyone came in today, because they wanted the four day weekend. Who can blame them?
I am very tired for I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean 3 last night at the 12:03 showing and the movie is 2 hours and 45 minutes in length. The movie was very good, except that the storyline jumped around a lot and was slow at first. Personally, I liked Spider-man 3 more than POC 3, but they were both good. The theater that we were in last night was especially warm and I started to fall asleep during the film. Of course, the end leaves the storyline slightly open so that if they decide to make a fourth movie, they have a story already in place.
Last night I finally finished Harry Potter 5, so that is my third book of the month and twenty-fourth of the year. I dropped it off today and picked up the sixth book. I have already passed my page total for 2004 in the first five months of 2007; I have read over 10,500 pages this year.
I was not busy at work today, so I read up on the subject of Scientology, because there was an article about Tom Cruise and his cult in the news the other day. That is a very messed up belief system. Apparently, a creature known as Lord Xenu threw these alien creatures into volcanoes and then when they died and their souls left their bodies he sucked them up into a giant floating vacuum. He then preceded to brainwash them with a movie for 36 days that fed them misinformation and confused them. After the 36 days, he released the thetans (alien souls) and they latched onto human beings, creating human confusion and becoming the cause of all disharmony in the world...
So, all humans have to do now is pay money to be audited with an e-meter to detect one's thetan level and try and reduce the disharmony and confusion in each individual. With each thetan that a person conquers they "grow" more in the "religion" and progress through the OT (Operating Thetan) levels (1-8; 9 is unachievable right now apparently). I guess only L. Ron Hubbard was a OT 9 and no one else has been one since. Scientologists also buy into reincarnation of a sort and believe that they have lived countless previous lives. During their audits, all these details of previous lives and occurrences are recorded with the Church of Scientology.
Other religions are anathema to these followers. Christianity, for instance, is viewed as evil and avoided at all costs. Unbelievable.
The believers of this cult also hunt down those who have slanders or disrespected their beliefs. Here are a few documented cases: Operation Freakout, Fair Game. Also, they have no problem blackmailing those who have left the church so that they do not tell the true story of the extortionists who seek to steal your soul and lead you astray into this outright lie.
Now that this is published online, I will invariably be hunted down and silenced by a zealous member of this erroneous cult full of lying fags. For full details on the horror that is Scientology see this article.
I believe that I will be done for today. Angering one crowd of maddingly, misguided morons (note the alliteration) is quite enough for now.
Later,
Lorimer

Yes, I am still horribly upset that the Chelsea fags won last week. I have calmed enough, though; that I feel it is alright to post another message.
I saw Shrek the Third last weekend with my father and brothers, and it was hilarious. Some new locations Shrek, donkey, and puss in boots travel too offer a great many new opportunities to play off of the medieval theme used throughout the series. I will not write a full review here, for it would spoil the movie for those who have not yet seen it; however, it was worth seeing.
Tomorrow, the biggest movie of the year opens at 8:00 EST. Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End promises to top its predecessor in the box office and may even break the record set by Spider-man 3 a few weeks ago.
I read another 150 pages in HP5 last night to reach page 675. Only 195 to go. This book is taking forever.
I have visited the beach two days in a row now, and the water is actually getting quite warm. The wind has been strong this week though, so it is not the best beach weather, because sand blows into your face the whole time.
My Xbox has not yet been banned from Live, but I expect it will happen anytime. I am prepared to cope with the lose of Live should Microsoft come after me. I do not know how soon I will get another console though. Marc had a good idea. He went out and bought a used core system and then transferred his hard drive. That is probably what I will do eventually, when I get The Ban.
I went to Sam’s Club the other day and bought enough napkins to last me the rest of the year and well into 2010…it is a package of 1320 napkins, and then when I got back to my house I found another package with 250 in my cabinet. I am ready for anything now…
It is not generally known here in the States, but The Office with Steve Carell actually got its start from a BBC version which started back in 2001 and carried all the way through 2002… The BBC version last only 12 episodes, but someone here in the US took the idea and actually made a good show which has aired 50 episodes and will be started its fourth season next year. The BBC version is not very funny at all, and I am very glad that the show was well made here in America.
Time to go…later,

May is passing quickly and the Wade graduation is almost here. I only have six classes left and then I am done teaching—at least for a few years. I will continue to be the AD, but I am going to stop teaching so that I can concentrate on my own degree and get it done.
Manchester United plays the Chelsea fags tomorrow in the FA Cup final, so if I do not post anytime soon it is because MU lost and I am so angry that I do not want to write something I will regret.
Apparently, Microsoft has started banning people from Xbox live because of the firmware update. I just have to remember not to play any burned games for the next few months and I should be ok. This also means that I cannot play my new Spiderman 3 game, but so be it. Unfortunately, Marc was the first one I know to fall. Chris should be next. I am determined to resist and remain safe for as long as I can. Only time will tell if the MS Nazis learn of my altered state and seek to annihilate my live privileges.
Since my last post, a month ago, Spider-man 3 was released in theaters and broke every opening weekend box office record. I saw the movie at midnight, Friday morning, and I thought it was great. Venom was awesome and the CGI was excellent. The Sandman was alright, but I think that they could have found a better villain. I cannot wait to see what villains they decide to use in SP4, which comes out in 2010.
Shrek the Third was released today; however, I have not decided whether or not I am going to see that movie in theaters. Next week, I will be going to see the newest and last installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean. I cannot wait to see how they end that trilogy.
None of my favorite authors have released books recently, so I have been trying to catch up on a few books I have lying around the house. I have only two books left in the Ender series, which are excellent. The 24 Declassified book that I read was alright. It was fast reading, but the timeline the author used in the book was bogus. It could have been better. I will be reading the second one, because it is written by a different person. Hopefully, he is a better writer. I also finished reading the first book in the Emperor series, which is awesome. Those books are great, and I will definitely be getting the next three to finish the series. The author, Conn Iggulden, came out with a new book last month called Genghis, so I will be reading that as well when I am done with Emperor.
I believe that will be all for today. Later.
