Hello once again to all my loyal readers!

Sorry I took so long to write a new entry, damn addictive Wii eating up all my downtime. It didn't help that i was dumb enough to buy a new game: Lego Indiana Jones, the Original Adventures. Yes, I was dumb enough to buy another game for my Wii.

I always was a fan of the Lego Star Wars games, so I decided to rent Indy at the video store. I ended up playing it a lot. I enjoyed it so much, I nearly forgot to return it! So, I decided to get my own copy to keep, and I haven't regretted it. It's a fun game to play. It is especially fun if you love the original movies. The cutscenes were hilarious. I dare you not to laugh at the moment where Indy tries to fake out the Hovitos by showing them a rubber ducky. I used to have a rubber ducky. Dad got it for me when I was five. Do I still have it? Ah, I'll have to look around for it. Knowing me, it's probably tucked away in a drawer or something. I tend to throw things in drawers and forget about them.

I liked those Star Wars games because they required you to think and solve puzzles. And Indy is no different. It's a lot of fun solving the puzzles and unlocking all the hidden treasures. I got all the mini-models on Raiders of the Lost Ark, and now I'm working on getting the ones in Temple of Doom. Believe it or not, Steven Spielberg himself considers Temple to be his least favorite of the Indy films. I can imagine why. It's good, but it doesn't have something Raiders and Last Crusade had.

On a different note, I had watched the Oscars, and I was so happy when Heath Ledger won Best Supporting Actor for The Dark Knight. Me and Dad saw that movie, and it was awesome! I saw it again with the rest of the Liberty Legion, and we had a blast. Vince nearly got us kicked out of the theater when he cussed really loudly at the scene with the big rig.

I was happy that Ledger won it because superhero films have a history of being snubbed by the Academy (If I had my way, Superman would've dominated the '77 Oscars), but because his Joker was awesome. Incredibly creepy and cool.

My Dad often compares Heath Ledger to James Dean. I can see why. He's a big movie buff, which is something I ended up inheriting from my pops. Aunt Gina says I also inherited his stubbornness. Hey, it's not my fault I wanted to be a wrestler like Uncle Kyle. I like to kick ass, and I'm no kitchen whiz.

Oh, and this year marks the 35th anniversary of Blazing Saddles. One of Mel Brooks's best films. It is a funny movie. I was saddened when I learned of Harvey Korman's death. In case you're wondering, the late Mr. Korman portrayed Hedley Lamarr. Hedley, not Hedy Lamarr. But hey, it was 1874, he could sue her! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! And in that film, Mongo showed he was more than a big strong dope: he was a wise man.

Gotta go, got more treasures to pick up with Indy and the gang!

(Subj: Not my fault)

Hey, I had to say it when the Joker flipped that big rig, man. That moment didn't win the "Holy &$^%" moment at the Scream Awards for nothing!

You got a point, but you still didn't need to do that.

Hey, Christy! Did you unlock the Ancient City?

- Anna

(Subj: Re: Unlocking stuff)

Yeah, I did. Having trouble getting all one million studs. I can't seem to get that blasted mine cart to move.

Have a character grab a torch and put it to the back of the cart. It'll make the cart rocket away.

Okay, thanks Anna. I'll do that.

Ha! I loved that movie! I saw it with the other New Mutants and we had a blast! Lizzie Guthrie had a fit when she heard the language in it!

And you are right, Christy. Mongo is indeed a wise man: "Mongo only pawn in game of life".

Yeah, that movie's not for the PC. But it makes it even funnier.

Mongo indeed is wise. We are all pawns in the game of life.
