Hello all you thing-a-ma-jigs, watchamawhoozies, and general whozie whatzits. I am here to tell the tale I’m supprised didn’t get onto CNN. The giant hold up at Orlando International. I was on my way back home from Disney World with Broke Hoedown, when our flight was delayed several times. When we arrived at the gate, I played on my ipod, Broke Hoedown watched CNN, and then over the intercom spoke, “Attention flight 1502 passengers, there is a slight wheater delay due to lighting near the ramps, this should clear up in just one minute,” we sat there for 15, 20 minutes, maybe even half an hour. Then, storm cleared up, and we could board, when we found out the flight attendants had left the plane. we sat in the gate, for another ten minutes. When all the passengers finally got on board, the pilot discovered a minor mechanical issue, which took up 20 minutes to half an hour. I’m no mathematician, but that sounds like over one hour. This scenario hit all over the country! Detroit, Sacramento, those are just examples. I met some people who had this happen to them. We missed our connection because of it. And if you think thats bad, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet! A dozen and a half people all went to customer service to complain and get hotels and such. The customer service worker didn’t know how to handle this. Neither did anyone. At first we tried just getting another hotel, and we couldn’t! When a flight by united was delayed by weather, something out of their control, you get a pink coupon for fourty to sixty percent off. When it is delayed do to the crew or the plane, it is thier fault and they give you a free room. The computer only said that weather was the problem. If it had only been weather, all of us would have made our connections, but instead we had to pay for a hotel room! It was crazy! We couldn’t contact the pilot or any of the crew, so we had to pay! Word spread fast across the airport. I met someone coming from Detriot who had heard about the Orlando flight, and I was waiting for the hotel shuttle! I am never flying united again!
‘Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull’ Review, with a bonus review of ‘Iron Man’
Hey all readers of my blog, I am here to review the latest two blockbusters, ‘Indiana Jones and The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull’ and ‘Iron Man’. We’ll start with Indy. In the new adventure, Harrison ford is back to his old tricks, as Indiana Jones. This time, he’s teaming up with Shia LeBeouf, Ray Winstone, John Hurt, and Karren Allan as they play (in order) Mutt Williams, Mac Hcale, Proffeser ‘Ox’ Oxley, and the return of Marion Ravenwood. During this, They must battle Kate Blancett As she plays Irina Spalko, in their quest for the final crystal skull. I must admit, it was sad that so many actors had passed between ‘Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade’ and the most recent movie, thus cutting out so many Characters, but I think that it was worth it, to see my favorite new actor, team up with my favorite classic. Best quote: Indy: Don’t call it a snake!
Now, for the ‘Iron Man’ review. Warning! This has sort of spoilers for the first five minutes of the movie! In ‘Iron Man’ one of the most beloved super heroes comes to life on the movie screen. In this ‘Marvel’ classic, Tony Stark (played by Robert Downey Jr.) has been captured by terrorists, causing him to do something very drastic, that the rest of the company disagrees with. he assures them that this large gap will be filled with his new invention, which he is keeping a secret. Thus, is born, the Iron Man Suit. Accompanying him in this movie is Terrance Howard, playing Tony’s friend in the military, Col. James Rhodey Rhodes, Jeff Bridges, Tony’s right hand man, Obadiah Stane, and the secretary that Tony can’t tie his shoes without, Gwyneth Paltrow, as she plays Pepper Potts. Best Quote:Pepper: What’s your social security number?
Tony: Five.
Pepper: Just five? Your missing a couple of digits.
The Watchamacallit Hates Watchamacallits!
Hey, you probably assumed that I had previously eaten a Watchamacallit, but I hadn’t. Now, I have just recently had a watchamacallit, and it was horrible. It was really flaky, and had this odd flavour that you just can’t describe. Its like a mix of one of those cliff bars, rocks, frosted flakes, coated with fake chocolate. I advise all readers to not purchase any watchamacallits, and instead, when you are buying candy, buy your favorite Hersheys candy, to try to get rid of the watchamacallits.
I SPACED!
Hi everybody, sorry I haven’t posted in forever. But now I’m back, and I’d just like to know, I have been offered a segment on a podcast that may be coming soon. I don’t know any details, because none have been settled yet, but I will be on the podcast. I’m afraid that it will be about disney for any who don’t want me to talk about disney, but I will bring in my special views. When this is released, I will tell you, and link, but for now I’ll just link to the site that gives news about this upcoming podcast.
Now You Can Get To ABC Easier Than 123

Re-A Neoscam?
OK, first, I’d like to say, when you are posting on thread on a message board or are replying to an e-mail, feel free to type in a new subject, it will make you fell 1337.
Secondly; I’d like to say that in order for you to understand this you will have to have read A Neoscam?
Now that you’ve read, A Neoscam? (sorry about that bit of inside advertisement, its my best post yet.) I’ll get down to what this is about. I had stated the problem in A Neoscam?, but I forgot to state the major way to get rid of the NC Mall. The idea is to get the number down. “The Number” is the number of items sold at the NC Mall. Do what ever you can to get that number down. My way is to get you do start your way. I have a friend who is trying to alert the boards. Do what ever you can. If you need ideas, just neomail me at Grim01 or tell my friend Mosbyh177 that you read my article and need help coming up with an idea on how to bring the number down. The most direct way is to leave a comment on this post. Good luck, We’ll All Need it
Marry Poppins Inspired the Hippies!
Hello and Welcome back to The Whatchamacallit. I have the most interesting fact today. The other day, I was watching Marry Poppins, and I noticed that when they went to the bank, the bank owners tried to steal the children’s tuppins. I realized that the ‘man‘ was restricting the liberty of the children. Then I remembered that the movie was made during the late ’50’s early ’60’s. Thus I came to the conclusion that Marry Poppins inspired the hippies. After that, I was informed that my grandfather, Nick von Hoffman, was the first to report on hippies. So the way I see it, [my] Grandpa Nick, discovered Mary Poppins
Disney takeover of the interweb? Doubt it.
Hello again. This time I come with a review; of the Disney site. I don’t want to spoil
it for anyone who hasn’t checked it out yet, but it’s a horrible site. It just needs some management. They want you to watch this video, listen to this song, chat on their single board, play this game, and rate all of them at the same time. Now I know why they bought Club Penguin. Seriously, If you can figure out how to do things one at a time, than great for you. for every one who isn’t at that level of 1337-ness, just avoid it.
A Neoscam?
Hello readers, welcome back to the whatchamacallit. Its been a while since I posted, my birthday has gone by, but that doesn’t matter. I am here to do a special report on the ‘NC mall’ on the neopets website.
I will start from the beginning. Nine years ago, two teenage Japanese girls wanted to make something like a tamagotchi system online, so they created neopets. It took three years, but neopets caught on. Many sites realized that this was a huge hit. Now, if you do an interactive play site, involving pets, you either do it like neopets does it, or the way club penguin does it. Some examples of these are milsberry.com ; webkinz ; and nicktropolis (sorry about the lack of link, nickelodeon is currently under maintenance. ads for nicktropolis are every where though, I’m sure you’d be able to find it easy.).
On the topic of club penguin, it has been recently bought by Disney, I will be blogging about that another time though. Viacom, the company that owns nickelodeon, knew that they had to have a site of both kinds in order to be good enough to take on all those interactive sites, so they bought the source. Thats right, VIACOM BOUGHT NEOPETS! Ever since, neopets has been going down hill. The idea of neopets is a free tamagotchi, a website, that wouldn’t charge you, for anything. a site that would bring joy and happyness through out the world, and would have cybunnys fluttering down the rainbow over neopia central and… Sorry got off track there.
What I’m trying to say is that viacom has turned the actually free neopets, into America. Slowly and subtly though. it started with several tool bars, but that wasn’t working. They sent out television adds on nick , but they were to subtle. so they brought out full out adds. They pointed out things like the new game ‘Shenkuu river rush’ and for some reason, lowered the amount of neopoints you start with by 1000. The NC Mall was the final blow though. Needing to use real money, to buy virtual items on a kids site? It should not be! I am going to write a twelve paragraph letter to neopets on this subject, after seeing how few people actually realize neopets is being taken over! I posted to the boards one after noon only to find 1 out of 6 people had responded to the unfairness of the NC Mall. If any of you goon neopets, it would be increadibly helpful if you aided me in this battle. Just send feed back that says I support Grim01 just copy that and paste it into a feedback message to the tnt. That is all.
Hip hip hooray for cursors yay
I just wanted to brag that I found an awesome site for cursors that is spy ware free. I don’t know the name at the moment, but it’s the only one of its kind of add on gamesmate.com
