7.7.07...luckiest day of the year? Yeah, right.

Everyone on the new has been gushing about 7.7.07, and how it's the luckiest day of the year. Normally, I'd agree with them, but not today, because my monthly bill came today [all you women know what I'm talking about...maybe a few of you guys as well]. Now, how is this the luckiest day of the year/century for me?

If someone asks how I spent my 7.7.07, I'll say, "With a heating pad on, hopped up on caffeine and ginger tea." Ginger tea, by the way, is the nastiest crap I've ever tasted!

Oh, another thing...that STUPID Always slogan: "Have a happy period." The packages are even flowered now. Question: since when are periods a happy thing? I cramp. I bloat. I'm crabby. I mean, come on.

Seinfeld: Best show in the world. Period.

Seinfeld is the best show in the entire world. The best show there ever was, or ever will be.

I never watched it while it was on the air, because I was too young to get the jokes and such. My mom is the reason I like this show, and she got me seasons 1 and 2 on DVD one Christmas.

I was hooked.

Basically, it's a show about nothing, and that's what makes it so funny.

Here is a website with Seinfeld quotes from all 138 episodes that I found to be rather interesting: Seinfeld quotes

If you have never seen this show...get the DVDs! Or catch it on reruns. You won't be disappointed. :)

your body is a wonderland...

...and apparently, there's a place called Wonder Land too.

Interesting.

Got me to thinking about odd town names, so I looked it up. Man, I was amused...they have some for each state [be prepared for some reading]:

I looked up some of the towns, and most of them are either ghost towns, or very tiny towns. For example, Eek, Alaska only has a population of 280. That's almost my entire graduating class. Weird.

All my life I equated "small" with the town I live in, which had 4,000 at one point.

Nickelodeon and Saturday morning TV nostalgia.

I was watching Fairly Oddparents on DVD, and I got to thinking about all of the Nickelodeon shows I used to watch when I was a kid, and ones that I loved. Here's the list, off the top of my head:

1. Rocko's Modern Life
2. Ren and Stimpy
3. All That
4. Roundhouse
5. Are You Afraid of the Dark?
6. Legends of the Hidden Temple
7. Clarissa Explains It All
8. The Adventures of Pete and Pete
9. The Angry Beavers
10. Double Dare
11. What Would You Do?
12. Hey, Dude!
13. Salute Your Shorts
14. Wild and Crazy Kids

Then I got to thinking about other shows I used to watch:

1. Ghostwriter
2. Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?
3. Beakman's World
4. Pee Wee's Playhouse
5. David the Gnome (I still know the theme song!)
6. Sharon, Lois, and Bram's Elephant Show
7. Fred Penner's Place

Ah, good times. :)

rabbit, rabbit.

Once again, happy first of the month.

I wish you luck in the coming month...

P.S. My real name is not Brandykins, by the way...just my nickname. *laughs*
