Dare Devil

These observations are not mine. I am just re-posting them here and agreeing with them:

- Seems going blind not only heightens your hearing and smelling and all that, but it also can increase your ability TO JUMP 50 FEET IN THE AIR and to stop combination locks with your palm.
- When someone who can't miss is throwing broken glass at you, be sure to remember that all you have to do is do cartwheels and nothing can hit you or your legs as you're stretched out flipping backwards.
- When billionaires have disagreements and one wants to retire, always understand that one of the billionaires is entitled to hire a crazy guy to kill him.
- I liked the part in the cathedral where Daredevil was played by a cheesy computer generated cartoon.
- Just as they had told us years ago in ChiPs, you can stand on a motorcycle without it wobbling, turning or slowing down.
- If your father gets killed and you decide to dress up in leather and become a super hero girl, be sure to stab the real hero in the shoulder and get killed 10 minutes after you start your new super hero career.
- Ben Affleck plays a blind guy damn near as good as Val Kilmer.
- Daredevil can't hear kids who are cowering and whimpering in the shadows just a foot away from his legs.
- Blind people can make perfect DD shapes with flammable liquid...it's one of those gifts.
- Although Ben Assleck is great when he's laughing, trying to get this guy to act dark and mysterious is like trying to your ass to wipe itself.
- Wasn't Elektra supposed to be beautiful...oh, wait, how can you hire somebody that's right for the part when you pay Movie Hunk Of The Moment 20 mill to look pretty on a poster.

Last nights dream had me being a part of a "Very Special" episode of "Full House Goes To DisneyLand", only with Crystal (my Fiance') and Brittany (my Niece) added in to the fold. I seemed to be in the "Uncle Joey" role during this show, and the dream progressed like a sit-com normally does; splitting in to three different stories that are re-visited at regular intervals. Danny (that annoying guy who used to host "America's Funniest Home Videos") spent all his segments of the show looking for some sort of special shot-glass that could only be found in Frontier Land. Jesse (the one who got married to Rebecca Romain-Stamos) thought he was there to play music, but ended up being a janitor. And during *my* segment, Crystal made a speciaol Disney-Wish for me that I could be a Disneyland Hotel Concierge for a day!

In the end, Danny found his Shot-Glass, Jesse got to play "California Girls" in front of a huge crowd, and the peple at the DisneyLand Hotel were so impressed with me that they gave me a permanent job! Then Brittany said something really funny, and the episode ended, and I woke up.

Now I'm going back to bed.

I am not a steady viewer of "Smallville" by any means. I watched the first two episodes, decided it seemed a bit too much like "Dawson's Creek", and never bothered to get bac in to it. Then I heard reviews that said it was *good*, but relied a bit too much on the stale "Freak-of-the-Week" pattern, so my interest waned even further. But tonight was an episode I could not miss.

Tonight, Christopher Reeve was re-introduced in to the Superman mythos.

Just by using those 5 opening notes of the Superman March from the films of the 70's/80's, they got me all choked up. It was truly a beautiful thing, and they've hooked another viewer with this little stunt (as long as they don't use the "Freak-of-the-Week" formula too often).
