It’s a dismal afternoon as Sharkboy stands on the train platform, his arms encircling his utmost love: 600 VHS videos with such titles as Monster Lake!<\/em>, Pirannha II<\/em> and Biker Werewolves from Arizona<\/em>. Nazi guards are all around him, insisting he make a decision on which tapes he is going to keep and which must leave him.<\/p>\n “Schnell!” they bark.<\/p>\n Tears well up in his eyes. Will he let Food of the Gods<\/em> go? Or will The Swarm<\/em> meet it’s untimely end? He must choose<\/em>! *<\/p>\n This weekend Sharkboy and I remodeled the office so I could fit my computer in there. Remodeling meant taking down the 600+ videos he had up along one wall and trying to cram half of them back into an Ikea cabinet and the other half would go into storage. It was sickening to see him get more and more frustrated.<\/p>\n Sunday night I spent an hour on the phone with Linksys trying to get XP to talk to the wireless router. Last time I did this, I spent 3 calls to support before realizing that I was on a 2.4G phone and thats why I couldn’t connect.<\/p>\n The office is far from done. And my monitor dominates my tiny desk but all should be righted in the next couple weeks.<\/p>\n * Please note, I have never actually seen <\/em>Sophie’s Choice. Consider this a re-imaging of it for my blog entry purposes.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s a dismal afternoon as Sharkboy stands on the train platform, his arms encircling his utmost love: 600 VHS videos with such titles as Monster Lake!, Pirannha II and Biker Werewolves from Arizona.
