The Summer is Hawsome!!!!

Dear Ephraim--

Tensions are starting to mount between me and our parents, but luckily I know how to smooth things over with them pretty good. Ugh... Remind me never to go to movies with dad again. We all went to see this new movie about John Dillinger the 1# Public enemy of the 1930's. More than half way through Dad got so angry that he ran out and demanded his money back, and he got a full refund. Bear in mind that dad wears tattered jeans, sports a grey goatee, and had previously popped a blood vessel in one of his eyes turning it bright red, so it makes sense that some red headed fifteen year old would be more than willing to give him his money back. Other than that aspect I rather enjoyed the movie quite well. And then we had some dinner and me Brigham, and Hyrum tried to get Zack's old toy plane to fly, We weren't successful. But I used the spare parts to build a brand new one, but we haven't tested it yet. I know what you mean, good teachers are rare. If most of my teachers were half as interesting as Brother McCombs I would gladly attend church for six hours let alone three. So get this, my buddy Josh invited me to go to the International Japanese Anime Show for a day, I had to laugh at that one... I told I would think about it, it would be kind of cool to dress up as Vegeta for a day but I gotta check my schedule. Oddly enough all of hotties go to those sort of get togethers, it's like a few Asian Mallorys times a hundred or dare I say? OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!! So all the more reason I should go...

Seth, a life a song

Dear Ephraim

Thanks ephraim! Yes I am having a good birthday.. Of course by the time this reaches you the 4th of July will be far behind..So.... yes I had a good birthday. I didn't have the same jovial anticipation for this birthday, not that I don't like hanging out with the family and shooting off colorful fireworks. I Just didn't spend every waking moment thinking about it like I used to, you know what I'm saying.

About a year ago my friend Nathan comes up to me and starts to telling me about this book and that the main character is exactly like me, but since the title was "Diary of a wimpy kid" I sort of took this as an insult. But hyrum and arleene gave me that same book for my birthday and after reading for like two hours I realize "This kid is exactly like me ! First off, it's about a middle school aged boy named greg who has a crush on a girl, from church who has two wacky parents and siblings and thinks, acts, and talks just I would/have spoken to people. You could pretty much tear pages from my journal and sell them as the same book, I kid you not! A for fireworks. Aunt Jeni's neighborhood strictly prohibits the use of any fire works, so I only got to light off two smoke grenades ("Did you know that grenade is french for Pomegranate?") one burned my hand and I dropped it on a little unsuspecting ant, covering him in smelly gas. I can just see him telling his wife later that day: "It was terrifying! All I could see out of the smoke was the shape of that giant!". The second later I tried to throw it in front of a truck that was moving on the other side of a big bushel of a tree... Unfortunately I didn't pull the chord fast enough so I chased after the truck while the grenade went off in my hand. Hopefully I'll be able to set off some real fire works later today. I'm trying to convince mom to get me this game called "mass effect", it looks pretty cool.. Well That's it for this week's e-mail, be sure to "toon" in next time to Seth and his wise cracking man servant: Doug!

G.I. Joe

Out of all the TV/Toy franchises of the 80’s: He-Man, The Thunder Cats, Transformers, etc. G.I. Joe always seemed the least likely to have a film debut any time before 2086 when movie companies are so dry of ideas that start ripping off any successful toy, video game, or board game franchise they can think of. But that doesn’t mean I’ve given up all hope in G.I. Joe, though I still think that both He-Man and Liono could obliterate Joe any day. I won’t be surprised at all if this movie turns out to be a major flop but if it turns out to be at least decent then that’s good enough for me because honestly G.I. is a tool.
