Aren't they adorable together? Although, Stormy is looking a little pale. Hmmmmm.

The Re-opening of The X-Files News
I don't have a whole lot of new news to share. Just that I have finally caught up and surpassed the #TheXFiles201Days re-watch.
I just watched Season 4, Episode 9 because I know I won't be home much this weekend.
The re-watch is on Season 4, Episode 7, Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man.
It's a good episode all about Cancer Man and how is is like the Forrest Gump of the not-so-secret government agency that controls all the world's important events.
The best part is his park bench soliloquy.
"Life is like a box of chocolates. A cheap thoughtless perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So, you’re stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there’s nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while there’s a peanut butter cup or an English toffee, but they’re gone too fast and the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. If you’re desperate enough to eat those all you’ve got left is an empty box filled with useless brown paper wrappers." Raul Bloodworth
The name Raul Bloodworth is Cancer Man's nom de plume. He fancied himself a writer, but spent a lot of time putting rejection letters in his desk drawer.
Sound familiar?

Have a great weekend!
The BOY has another football game tomorrow!
Go WildCats!
Go Wildcats!
ReplyDeleteStormy does look pale. I'd keep an eye on him.
Stormy and Grimm are so cute together. Maybe Stormy needs a little color in his cheeks, though! Good luck to the boy and have a great weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteStormy is a nice addition to the centerpiece.
ReplyDeleteI love Bloodworth's take on the box of chocolates. LOL
Love, love, LOVE Bloodworth's quote!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to Tara and her Blog Tour! Yeah, Stormy might want to give Death a treat or something. Get on the good side of him.
ReplyDeleteDeath looks so happy to be posing with Stormy!
ReplyDeleteGnome is in danger! Danger, I tell you!!
ReplyDeleteLoved the gnomes Heather, in fact I really enjoyed the whole post Excellent Friday reading.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
I'd be pale too if death was standing next to me! And I loved that soliloquy, cracks me up. The X-Files is one of those shows I can easily watch all over again - and have.
ReplyDeleteSo all we writers have to look forward to is to become the cigarette smoking man? Bummer. Best of luck to the boy this weekend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a dynamic duo you have there!
ReplyDeleteGo Wildcats! He looks ready!
That little Death is so cute! Wherever did you find him?
ReplyDeleteI'm eager to find out what the new X-Files will be like. I hope the series will retain its magic.
