New Years note!!!
I just got done reading a new years note from Joss Whedon. He had commmented on his likes and dislikes of the year 2004. I have decided to do the same.
2004 brought many a great thing...Buffy seventh season on DVD, Buffy oakland con....
But there were also bad things about this year. Angel being canceld, the WB...
I would like to list a few things and give you my opinion:
1.LOTR BEST PICTURE: About bloody time! Finally LOTR wins something!!! about 11 somethings to be exact.
2.the WB: I will tear out their hearts and throw them to the cannibals! The WB got rid of Angel when it was at the top of its prime. Angel's 5th season was quite possibly the best. We were introduced to new worlds all over again, Puppet Angel was hilarious!!! The plot for the last 2 episodes kept me at the edge of my seat!! Illyria Rocked! Amy Acker showed us what an amazing actress she really was by switching flawlessly from Fred to Illyria in a second. Wesley dying was a very sad and touching moment. I pine for him!!!! Then Lorne's exit was just sad and upsetting. Angel's last line of "let's go to work." Was perfect....sad , but perfect. Keep fighting the good fight!!!!Oh, how I hate you WB!!!
3.Cannables: cant live with em' cant live without em'.
4.New years eve: just isn't the same without a balloon for a date.
5.Resolutions: Things that you know will make you a better person, so you say that you will do it. Yet in the back of your mind you know that you will never get it done. Dang, there go all my hopes for creating that flesh eating robot to attack the WB. (Are we noticing a cannibalistic theme?)
Here endeth my thoughts on the old year, hopefully the new year will be better.
you should really read Joss Whedon's though, cause it far exceeds mine.
here is a link for it..hope it works.

OK, I have decided to post Joss's comments here so that you can read them. Here they are...
"As the new year comes tumbling at us like a giant, heaving sack of meat, gristle and hoof-parts, making some kind of horrible screeching and staring at us with its one bloodsoaked eyeball, the joys of Christmas and family make one reflect mellowly on what we've learned in this year. I'd like to share a little of that with you all, unless you are under the age of eleven or between the ages of twenty four and twenty six. (These yuletide musings contain violence, partial nudity, and strong and often incoherent language.) (May contain peanuts.)
Movies: They're hard to make. You have to work for a long time and have a lot of thoughts. And you can't just make Tim do everything for you like before.
Flans: They keep us going. And they retain the shape of the ramekin when you turn them over, like jello does.
Stalin: Killed maybe twenty million people, but the last four million he was just phoning it in.
Compassion: It's the thing where other people talk and you care about their stuff or something -- my wife tried to explain it, but I was in and out.
Happiness: Nothing is more wonderful than the sight of your own baby in your arms. And nothing is more annoying than people who tell you that.
Kill Bill: Long.
J.J. Abrams: Mysterious. Has taken my writers but made no demands, not even a note. He did send me Drew's ear, but I just think Drew was finished with it.
Cheese popcorn: Still important.
Serenity: uhh... nothing comes to mind. Doesn't it mean, like, peacefulness or something?
April: Amazingly enough, actually IS the cruelest month.
Resolutions: Too many to tell, and some are federally incriminating. I'm not perfect (I'm prefectly PROPORTIONED, which is where that confusion comes in) and I've taken a cold hard look at my self in the wane of aught four. There's changes. Work to be done. I plan to be a better, more focussed person next year, and if at all possible, have a bionic arm.
I also resolve to write more. Not like, BENDIS more, but a lot. And maybe have some protien shakes, so my body stays in good enough shape to hold up my bionic arm, which will probably be heavy.
Santa Claus: A vicious lie. (But A Christmas Carol really did happen, with the ghosts and all.)
Wonder Woman: Hmmmm....
Well, kids, the fire is slowly dying, like my kidneys, so let's call it a night. Tomorrow I put on a little hat and raise a glass of champagne for another rotation around the sun. I may stay up till ten. Thank you all for a great year made greater by your community. And remember, stay in school. But after all, isn't the circus a kind of school? A school of life, with dwarfs and sweaty carnies and elephants instead of learning. Stay in school or at the circus. Or in a parking lot. Or somehwere with plants, and ferns. Please leave."
Happy holidays! -- The Remains of Joss Whedon.

Hi Nat this is Karmen by the way. I don't want a blog and it says that I have to have a blog if I sign up to comment on your blog. It is very rude!!!!!!!!!!!!! I reserved copies of HP and the half blood prince. Any ways I am suppose to comment on this, not write an e-mail. You know I agree that we feed WB to the canniables. The canniables will be so pleased. I think it'll be a nice service project (helping to feed the hungry). You always do have just a tender heart Nat. Any ways, My new's thing is to save up money to get braces so that people can make fun of me. It should be great!
