TMNT

Anyone who is a true fan will know what TMNT stands for.... 

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!

This morning when we woke up, we had the news on.  I then turned on Project Runway so that I could watch it from last night.  Mike did not like this...so while I was finishing putting the dishes in the dishwasher and I couldn't see the TV, but Mike had changed it. 

I said, "Are you watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?"  And he said, "How did you know that?!"

I knew by the voices of the turtles!  I started laughing.  My brother and I used to watch this movie ALL THE TIME!!! 

We then watched it through the end.  Ninja, Ninja Rap....Go Ninja Go Ninja Go!  Love it. 

Happy Friday! 

King of Kong

I think it was last Thursday night... 
I came downstairs around 11 or so to see where Mike was.  Obviously it was bed time. 
There was this really strange movie on.  It was like they were in an arcade.  The only problem was that there as this one man, Steve, who wasn't so nerdy like the rest. 
Of course I sat down, intrigued by the huge glasses, cuffed jeans, and mullets.

The movie was called King of Kong - A Fist Full of Quarters... now a new favorite.
Long story short, Mike was watching a documentary on Donkey Kong and one particular battle to get the high score at Fun Spot and LIVE. 

Of course drama unfolds and the nerds are like a group of cool kids who don't want to let anyone in...  There are even referees to make sure everything is good and legal and no cheating is involved.  The refs are from Twin Galaxies.   It's really unbelievable.

Mike loves this movie so much of that we showed it to our guest on Saturday night. 

"Possible Donkey Kong kill screen coming up if anyone is interested." 

I think it's Mike's new obsession.  Someday I'm sure we'll have an Old School Donkey Kong or Pac Man video arcade game in our garage so that Mike can go attempt to beat a high score at a Fun Spot Arcade and become a part of this random culture.
