As you may know, I'm an urban-dweller. Oak-town is one of the most urban environments a young dude can reside in. Still, a dude such as myself needs to get into tha country once in awhile. Luckily, there iz like heck-of redwood forest in my hood. They even gotz a sweet ride for tha peeplz all up in that forest's bidness. I likes me all kinds of transport - scraper bikes, sweet lowriders wit hydraulics, hooptie ridez, Escalades... you get tha idea. Of all them things, my all-time favorite is when I roll up on a smoove choo-choo. Awwww yeah!
There is an amazing episode of "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" coming out this week, of which I've seen a preview. Neil Patrick Harris as the villainous "Music Meister" is simply brilliant. I had no idea he has such a fantastic singing voice. I think it is premiering on Cartoon Network tomorrow (Friday, 10/23, 7:30 p.m.) night.
I've been watching this because Ethan is obsessed with CartoonNetwork.com, and turned me on to this preview, which I viewed a couple of days ago with him.
Truth: I was stunned to hear that President Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize this year. I mean, has he actually done anything worthy of the Peace Prize yet? I think not. Which makes one wonder why he was awarded this most prestigious prize. I've heard pundits say it's because of the promise that he shows. Okay. I kinda get that, although I don't agree with it.
What I think is that we of the isolated United States of America have seriously underestimated how much the rest of the world absolutely despised President George W. Bush and his policies. And they are so ecstatically happy that his administration is no longer in power that it's possible the Nobel Peace Prize would have been awarded to any U.S. President who followed GW Bush. Yes, I believe the sentiments were that strong around the world.
