stuff blows up and MIB2 (no spoilers)

[phosfate]

Fucking morons up the street have what sounds like a case of highly illegal M80s - for those of you out of the fireworks loop, they're explosive fireworks that pack the power equivalent of a quarter-stick of dynamite. Ownership of them by children is the result of curiosity and the knowledge that explosions are cool. Ownership by adult males is an indication of extreme stupidity.

Fortunately I was smart enough to do a Valium around 3:00, so I am not a small ball of twitch.

Took Mom to see MIB2. Basically it was an extended episode of the cartoon show, which was fine by me. I think it suffered from having to remove the World Trade Center from the plot, and I'd bet money that somebody insisted that it be edited to come in at under 90 minutes. A couple-three more minutes would have helped the timing immensely. Perhaps the DVD will have a better cut.

I was rather pissed at how a couple of key characters from the previous movie were disposed with in two sentences.

I think Tommy Lee Jones is Mom's secret boyfriend.

EDIT: There are now MIB2 spoilers in the comments. You have been warned.
