"Edibles" LJ Food Blog Re-Awakens

Michelle and Caileigh both requested I add a post about "stuff to do with Kraft Dinner" to my old LJ food blog, and now I imagine, I'll have to get that puppy up and rolling again.

I've got a newly perfected blueberry oatmeal muffin recipe to throw out there, a few good ways to make traditional lasagna rock out of the park, beets to be pulled form the garden and messed with, plus a home-made chicken noodle soup to be perfected.



For today, it's KD college cooking. I'll do an… Continue

CHER + VEGAS = JOY

So about two weekends ago i went to las vegas to see Cher at Caesar's Palace. Not only was she AMAZING and looked great for however old she is (affiliated with TXF and aging fabulously, do you see a pattern emerging here scully?) but



SHE SANG "WALKING IN MEMPHIS!!!!!!!!!!"



Kids. For reals. I got up out of my seat and danced. Danced like a crazed monkey. Danced like I was Gene Kelly incarnate. She rocked it. No mention of the show, but YOU KNOW. YOU… Continue

You, Me, and Brangelina's Hair.

I’ve been sitting here, pouring over research, dull, dull, dull research in hopes of stumbling upon a moment of brilliance, one of those great factoids that hoist a project to its next level. Not much to pass on unless you wanted to know that the number one feature North Americans admire about its most popular public figures, is hair. America is obsessed with hair. Jennifer, Bennifer, Brangelina, hell, Hillary too. Not one survey lists a single uttered phrase or personality trait as their… Continue

The end of some .... the beginning of others.....

Yes, and with the change in weather comes the end of summer and my 'XF year' or more appropriately, my 'I Want to Believe' year.



Yes, we are experiencing the end of summer here in BC. Oh, we may get another sunny day or two, perhaps a week even, but we have had the switch. One day we wake up to cooler winds, and they are cool despite the number on the thermometer, and we all know; we've had our summer.



Ugh.



I can run in 90 degrees, but this cool wet stuff… Continue

Observations on a Clear Day

People who find joy/pleasure/fulfillment in saying shitty things about The X-Files [and all it's components] are obviously: a) not getting laid, b) not ever getting laid and c) sad.

That's all folks!

Thank You

Frank Spotnitz has the most infectious smile and it seemed to light up the whole place. His genuine enthusiasm was delightful and if the fans weren't Frank fans before this day, they are now.

So Sucky

So yeah not even a month after the movie premiere the movie was officially pulled from the theaters here. The closest theater to me thats still playing the movie is like almost 4 hours away. Just goes to show how sucky Michigan is and how unloyal the fans here are. Except the few of us who did actually see it more than once. Grrrr it just perturbs me a bit. Stupid theaters and stupid people hating on the film. Those who 'need' to fit in with society. So very very lame!

If you think you've REALLY SEEN the movie...

Then do i have a post for you!



I've been discussing the movie with fellow Big-Lighter Marlene and decided to post what we've been talking about regarding IWTB. I would love outside opinions regarding the following points. I've been hesitant to post earlier, because of the complexity of this discussion, but I think enough people are out there to have detailed opinions. Here goes!

The Pinoy X-Philes Just Can't Get Enough

August 12, 2008 - our 2nd day in our X-Files Photo Exhibit, and we are getting number of people who are visiting in our exhibit. I told them they can take a picture for it is the purpose of that photo exhibit.



I was waiting for my other PXP members to arrived from the meeting with Fox/Warner Philippines, when I saw one of our oldest members, Batchie who came for the The X-Files: IWTB premiere night hosted by C/S (Crime/Suspense) channel. When I mentioned that we are not sure if the… Continue

Arrivals

First off, I should admit that I'm a dinosaur. Not literally, mind you, just in the sense that I never have go tthe hang of some of the technology my kids use like they were born to it.



I guess there were. Born to it, that is.



For example, though i know and can use my mac with ease, cell phones and cameras confound me.



Particularly cameras. I have never mastered the art of holding it at arms length and snapping those candid shots everyone under 30 seems to do so… Continue

Fan stuff, 'the' shirt and almost ready to go.....

Final preparations aside, the street has been transformed from a regular carrier of commuters, sightseers and shoppers to the glitzy glam of a red carpet extravaganza, waiting for our heroes to show up.

Pinoy X-Philes - Who Are We?

We are fans of The X-Files from the Philippines. "Pinoy" is a colloquial Tagalog term for a Filipino. When The X-Files was first aired on our local channel, it made a big impression on the Filipino viewers, especially because the show dealt with paranormal phenomena -- a subject close to Philippine mysticism.



Our group was formed in 2003 when four small, Filipino fan groups of The X-Files collaborated for the first ever Philippine Science Fiction and Fantasy… Continue

On our way to Malibu

We spent a long time waiting for the bus.

A very long time.

While Marcella read the article in the TV guide we found (there is no longer a print edition of this in Canada), I sat with my ears plugged. I did not want any hints of what might be in the film, and she couldn't help squeeing at times.

my review - in German

Wie die Einspielergebnisse bisher leider beweisen ist The X-Files - I Want To Believe (im Deutschen Jenseits der Wahrheit) kein Film für die breite Masse. Was sie außerdem beweisen ist die Tatsache, dass Menschen leicht zu beeinflussen sind. Kaum erscheinen schlechte Kritiken, schon bleiben die Kinobesucher aus. Kaum wird für einen Film kein gigantischer Apparat an Promotion aufgefahren, mit theatralischen Fernsehtrailern und aufwändigen Plakaten, die einen regelrecht anschreien, schon wird der… Continue
