27 Days

27 things that can be accomplished in 27 days.

The first items that popped into my mind, and I’m unsure of its source, was to sail a boat to Iceland. Why? I have no idea. But that idea gave me pause. 27 things that need 27 days.

27. Sail a boat to Iceland.

26. Grow cat grass.

25. Surf fishing.

24. Ride a horse.

23. Fly a kite.

22. Rock Opera.

21. Space Opera.

20. Power nap.

19. Shake stalkers.

18. Techno Tuesday.

17. Two Meat Tuesday (buy the book – or download it)

16. Math test: if a single item is $0.89, and the blister three-pack is $2.98, what is the cheapest way to purchase three of the items?

15. 300

Saw the movie ‘300’ and it was, well, sort of good. Pretty good. Worth every penny of that admission price. I’ve got but one quibble, there’s decapitation, part way through the film, and that one, it’s an important beheading, the stump doesn’t properly spurt blood. Maybe I’m used to Kill Bill, or Monty Python’s Black Knight. Or whatever.


As I understand it, the movie was based on a comic book, excuse me, Graphic Novel, and as such, both play fast and loose with historical events. Doesn’t much matter, though. The nature of the film, the way it was constructed, it all lends an ink-stained feeling to the visual presentation. And for that? It’s a great movie.

14. What kind of a fool would stand on the edge of the lake in the blowing rain, watching carp frolic along the shoreline.

Mr. Park Ranger came by, “One of those guys over there said they saw a spot on the tail of those, claims you’re in the best place.”

Best place for carp. Not even big carp, just sexual-frenzy hormone-enhanced carp doing their mating thing, rolling and roiling around at the shoreline’s muck. Hey, one man’s trash fish is another man’s treasure.

Yeah, so what kind of fool would be at the edge of the lake instead of inside, correcting the problems with the audio on the weekly video?

12. Running gags are only as good as my attention span.
