We Watched

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen



This was a good movie, very action packed, tons of funny parts.....a tad on the long side though.
I have to get me one of those three wheeled motorcycles!

The soundtrack for this movie is good also, This song stood out for me:


I feel insane every single time I'm asked to compromise
‘Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways and that’s the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By that look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I’m not... not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy

Shame pulses through my heart from the things I've done to you
It's hard to face but the fact remains that this is nothing new
I left you bound and tied with suicidal memories
Selfish beneath the skin but deep inside I'm not insane

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I’m not... not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy
(You'll learned your lesson)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(But first you'll fall)
Come back again it's almost easy

(guitar solo)

Now that I've lost you it kills me to say
(Hurts to say)
I've tried to hold on as you've slowly slipped away
I'm losing the fight, I've treated you so wrong now let me make it right

(Make it alright)

I'm not insane, I'm not insane(evil laugh)
I'm not insane, I’m not... not insane

(Mother)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(Said it all)
Come back again it's almost easy
(You'll learned your lesson)
Come back to me it's almost easy
(But still you'll fall)

Come back again it's almost easy

You Never Really Know the Lyrics to A Song......

Until you sing them!
This Is Conventional Lover by Speck. This song is featured in the game Rock Band 2.
It is too funny, but catchy.
I Love the "Tap my mana" part, LOL!


Who left you hanging on that peg all alone?
You look near mint to me babe and I wanna make you my own
I wanna be your captain, my Pon Farr is a-risin'
So step on over here girl, my love is enterprisin'

Let me be your conventional lover
Let me show you some conventional love
I don't mean to boast, I don't mean to brag (ooh love long and prosper)
But I'm a man whose only issues all come in mylar bags

Let me be your conventional lover
Let me give you my conventional love
I'll give you my heart, I'll treat you nice (ooh love long and prosper)
And the games that I play only have twenty-sided dice

They're polyhedral!

Let's hit the dealer's room and get you something fine
That collectors bust of Cthulhu reminds me of how you blow my mind
Now let me take you dancing in my best Starfleet dress uniform
You'll want to tap my mana once you've seen me perform

Let me be your conventional lover
Let me show you some conventional love
I don't mean to boast, I don't mean to brag (ooh love long and prosper)
But I'm a man whose only issues all come in mylar bags

Let me be your conventional lover
Let me give you my conventional love
I'll give you my heart, I'll treat you nice (ooh love long and prosper)
And the games that I play only have twenty-sided dice

Uh oh
Saving throw!

And when we get to mating, I'll always treat you kind
I'll never bend you too far back or ever crease your spine
But there's one thing I won't promise, there's one thing I won't do
Can't leave you in the box babe, this collector is coming through

Let me be your conventional lover
Let me show you some conventional love
I don't mean to boast, I don't mean to brag (ooh love long and prosper)
But I'm a man whose only issues all come in mylar bags

Let me be your conventional lover
Let me give you my conventional love
I'll give you my heart, I'll treat you nice (ooh love long and prosper)
And the games that I play only have twenty-sided dice

Let me be your conventional lover
Let me give you my conventional love
I'll give you my heart, I'll treat you fine
And I'll make sweet love to you while we're watching Deep Space Nine

Family Game Night


We played Family game Night on XBOX with Ma & Pa this weekend.
Pa is the luckiest dice roller ever! Saturday night he wanted to play "Just one more game."
He got the highest Yahtzee score I have ever seen. (588) Or some dumb thing. He had Three Yahtzees!!!
I did manage to win one game. I only got one achievement unlocked where Pa as Soakitincider2 & Ma as guest unlocked a few more achievements.
I need to make their own XBOX profiles!!!

Things Looking Up!

Well we all need to keep thinking positive because it is so working. They called some Set-ups & a few select people back to work after one day of being laid off.
This week we go back to 5 days.
Woot for having a full paycheck!
Many thanks to those working to get us orders & to our customers for buying!!!!!!

Same Stuff Different Year

The smoke has cleared and once again I feel lucky to still have a job.
I hope these numbers are correct.....We had 315 people and now we have 125. This lay-off was the biggest I've seen at our company. (1996 would be a close comparison, but we had way more employees at that time.)
I am one of two operators left in our department. It is going to be different on Monday. I'm curious to see how production is going to run with so few experienced operators and a handful of set ups and support.
This is the ultimate do more with less scenario!!!!
Those who are left are down to 4 days a week. Today was my first Friday off and I spent it giving the kids haircuts and baths!

It seems like the end of the world right now, but I have faith that orders will drop in and that this will be short lived.
Our company has, even in bleak times magically kept going and growing......I hope this trend continues.
