My job is not so bad...

Harryhausen and Inigo Montoya?!?! Your job ROCKS!!!! All I did today was explain to someone why they should use a smaller grip on their sword. And of course, since they are a rank beginner, they know more than me and they went for the larger grip. Sigh.
You guys hiring?

Did you get an autographed copy? What's his book about?

I couldn't confirm the Mandy Patinkin sighting. Sure as hell looked like him. If it was him, he was in disguise with a secret wife with two young bairns in tow. So, all things considered, it probably wasn't him. Which halves the coolness of my job, alas.
Still Ray was there. New big coffee table book, The Art of Ray Harryhausen. Autographed, of course. No discount for Pixar employees, but hey, the money's going to Ray, so you gotta cough up. Sorry about the Inigo thing. I was sure it was him.

Pacific Coast Championships this weekend and one of my lads won the epee and one of my lassies took bronze in the foil. I can hardly wait to find out what happens tomorrow!

Where are they taking place?

I would do vile things for an 8x5 of a Harrryhausen skeleton signed by Mr. Ray.

...What happens in Vegas...
...and I would also be happy to kill someone of Ray's choice to get one of his "Jason and the Argonauts" skeletons. Of even the Colossus of Rhodes brass warrior dude. Harryhausen ROCKS!

Eight Shaolin disciples showed up at work today. Some of them has some really rare styles: dog fu, scorpion fu, toad fu and duck fu.

I have it when the Shaolin's show up unannounced.
So much for the flickr badge idea. Dammit

And that duck fu master would have owned me then quacked about it. It was way too humiliating a prospect for me to even think about.

...if you defeated the toad fu master, would he croak?
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

The toad fu master can lay on the ground with his inner arms, inner forelegs, inner thighs, belly and chest all touching the ground, and then pop up into a backflip or a double kick and punch, and then land again, all coiled in that prone position again. I thought it was funny when I was watching it. Then later, I pondered the physics behind it and decided it was freakin' impossible.

That's one hell of a frightening description. Video. Need to see video.

Been There Done That. This is so old news. Didn't we see this in the documentary Stephen Chow made called Kung Fu Hustle?

I confess to having not seen Kung Fu Hustle. Is that a Bob the Builder episode, or Thomas the Tank Engine? If neither, I'm out of luck altogether.
