YOU INCOMPETENT FOOL, GRANT! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT?!?!it's always so nice to get a good zing in. thanks, ben burgraff, for that topical delight.
oh, and it's tuesday, november 21st, and this is a brand-new installment of tiny damaged notions!
i'm in a silly mood. very tired. apologize for the lack of coherence. sentence structure failing.
dr. jam informed me that 4head studios is going to be making "beowulf - the video game." don't know what beowulf is? well, let me honestly say that you are missing out on the epic old english poem.
this thing's got it all: an archaic form of english unreadable to modern day speakers, old germanic tribes, a monster, the monster's mommy, a dragon, and a king named hroðgar. if you ask for more, you are selfish and never will receive the beauty of freawaru, nor will you slay your enemies with the naegling--it will break in combat because your might is too strong! and that's because you are selfish. you sicken me. sicken me like grendel when he attacked the heorot.
currently, there are two beowulf movies in various stages of production. one is being directed by robert zemeckis, who also did the back to the future trilogy. the other, titled beowulf and grendel, has a website which posts the latest news blurbs pertaining to the film, such as:
nothing like a good old fashioned double entendre. sounds like my latest movie review:"foot job well done: happy feet scores big in the box office!"
speaking of sexy, check this out!
so, chimps like the mature lady-chimps, eh? how risqué.you can always smell good reporting from a mile away: "Now that is certainly a thing that separates us from them and makes us superior." anyone or anything that wants to have sex with an older mate as opposed to a younger one is certainly deserving of a lower status on the earth's hierarchy-of-awesome. way to point that out, and make your older readers feel even less valuable to society, playfuls.com.
did all you reeds know that today is not only the day that historical-nobody voltaire was born, but also the day that influential and legendary (and mom of my celeb crush number 2) hollywood star goldie hawn was born?! wow!
happy birthday, you two! make sure to share the cake. i'm not buying another one.
today is also ratification day in north carolina. back in 1789, north carolina became the 12th state when it ratified the US constitution. way to go, NorCal. although my state ratified the constitution on july 26, 1788--over a year before you guys. so EAT IT!
here's an artist's depiction of that moment:
alright, reeds. that's all the time i have for today. you all have a super-amazing-to-the-max ratification day! go make your own caricature of ulysses s. grant. sounds like a great way to spend your tuesday!remember to post your ideas for this wiki-licious friday!

1. I can't wait to get the exciting new Beowulf video game. (Of course, it could never ever be as exciting as the original Old English play though).
2. My state kicks both the asses of NY and NC as our motto is, "Live free or die." Now that's intimidating.
3. If you don't have any other topics lined up, you should write about "La Tomatina," the large annual tomato fight in Spain - because I'm obsessed with it. And, it has a wikipedia page, I've already checked.
