Very Nice

Man Oh Man, this is a wonderful day. The temperature was very nice even though I spent most of it inside sleeping (I worked an overnight). A sweet 82 degrees with the morning bring a little chilly, but very nice.

A good day to remember the fallen of September 11, 2001.

Football Player or Track Star?

A new original TV series from the Sci Fi Channel. It stars Eric Johnson (Formerly of Smallville), who plays Flash Gordon & Gina Holden (Final Destination 3), who plays Dale Arden. This show starts out similar to the original TV series and the movie except instead of a famous quarterback, Flash in a big track star (cross country or marathon). They still end up in a small war with Emperor Ming (John Ralston) of Mongo.

Gordon's main goal is to find his father, who most people believes is dead, but he feel is still alive after learning about his life's work from one of his colleagues, Zarkov, played by Jody Racicot, (Final Destination 3 & Night At The Museum). During this adventure he also makes an ally of Baylin, played by Karen Cliche (Mutant X & MTV's Undressed). Baylin is a former assassin of Ming and knows her way around Mongo, so she serves as a great asset to Flash.

Like most Sci Fi original series, Flash Gordon is action packed with a quirky side of comedy. I think some folks will be a bit disappointed by it because it take a completely different turn, but it is good enough for me to continue checking out.

Peep it if you have the chance.

Look at my lists

Hey folks look to the side of this blog site and note that I have listed all of my blog sites. It is a lot huh? A few are based on category and others are just there.

Examples:

TiVo Luva: is my blog about shows that I watch. I will talk about shows I checked out & decided to keep or drop and shows I am currently watching & will comment on it from time to time.

Wilvie Reel: Is similar to TiVo Luva except it is about movies that I have seen in theaters or in a player (VHS, DVD or computer).

Operation Shrink: This is powered by a site called SparkPeople, where I use as a strong tool for loosing and maintaining weight. So this blog is basically on my adventures in attempting weight loss. You should check out SparkPeople if you are interested in weight loss.

In Othello's Words: This blog is just entries from my mobile phone (Othello) via text. These usually will be short and will only be about the bizarre things I encounter while I'm away from a computer for a long time and want to post them right away.

The other two on MySpace (My Domain) and Yahoo 360 (Rarely Used) are just there. I actually rarely use them, but check them out once in a while to see if anything new is blogged there.

Of course, this blog site (Sure As Butta) is used for almost my everyday experiences.

So there you go. My new list of my other blog links. Check them all out if you like. It's nice to have readers.

4 Stages To Victory

This is a great show brought to us by G4 (formerlly Tech TV). The basics to this is show is that 100 contestants head up to Mt Mydoriyama to compete on the Sasuke. An obstacle course split into 4 stages.

Stage 1 usually has the most obstacles and the most people eliminated. About an average of 85% on contestants fail before the second stage. Stage 2 has less obstacles, but is more difficult.

The first 2 stages usually has a time limit, but Stage 3 does not. This stage usually focuses on balance and upper body strength. Once they make it through hen they have the final stage where all they do is climb the massive tower which looms over all the other obstacle. It is a lot of fun to watch and a lot of the contestants are pretty interesting. Check it out on G4 at 5pm & 11pm (CST).

We Like You

So my night at work got so much sweeter when I got my annual review from my manager. It was probably the best review I have ever gotten on any job. They are extremely pleased with my work and they have future responsibilities in store for me. Of course I am more so looking for a promotion and more money, but I will work with what I get for now. We are working on getting a promotion by the way.

I was so happy and excited that I was singing and bobbing my head the rest of the night. We shall see how much of a raise HR will give me based on my review score.

Tha Schwartz

Just got home from a day at the Fort Worth Museum of Science & History. Our first stop was the Star Wars Exhibit that showed some great models of some of the buildings, vehicles, and people. One of the impressive things they had was an interactive activity where you would try to maintain one of three scenarios on the planet Tatooine; maintain the production of the moisture farm with Luke's Aunt and Uncle, conduct a secure business system at the spaceport Mos Eisley, or lead the Jawas in various business transactions out in the Dune Sea. I did the Spaceport scenario and didn't do very well, but it was fun & interesting.

We couldn't spend too much time there for we had to head to the planetarium, where we learned a bit more about outer space. I was fun, but was as short as the planetarium show we saw at Dallas Fair Park last year.

After that we headed over to the Cowgirl Museum, where we saw some nice stuff about cowgirls past and present. We saw a 10 minute movie about the history of Cowgirls, show about the everyday life of a cowgirl, and saw a few models and brief stories of famous cowgirls including Annie Oakley.

Over all the day was very nice. When my mother-in-law comes down later in the month maybe she and the girls will go back to the museum to check out the Cowgirls.

New Blog

I am one of many proud owners of a TiVo, and man do I love it. This blog is for me to give my opinions on TV shows. I am not an expert. Just an avid TV watcher. I will have different ratings and here the descriptions.

KEEPER: shows I intend on keep on watching.
BUBBLE: shows that I'm not sure to keep or drop, but will hold on until they fall to Keeper or Dropped.
DROPPED: shows that I just stopped watching because I lost interest (they are not necessarily bad, just not TiVo worthy).
OWNER: These are shows who fall into the elite and I intend on buying when they release on DVD.
UH...NO: Show that I don't even give a try because they see totally uninteresting.

I will blog as often as I can so keep in touch.
