The Battle of The Living Room

So did you see the Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen spot on TV during the Superbowl? Didja-didja-didja? How awesome did that look!?!? And I’m told that the big wheel-thing that Prime jumps on is only ONE of the Constructicons, and there are 4 more that will merge to form Devastator.

OK, how many of you did I lose there? All right, moving on.

Things are crazy around here these days, as I desperately try and jam all of my New York trip packing and preparations into one night. I’ve made some interesting discoveries in the process though.

For example, did you know that I can take a corkscrew on a plane, but not a meat thermometer? I don’t really know why a person would need a meat thermometer on a plane, but it seems like they kind of thing they would only mention because someone tried it. Also, I feel I should point out that both of these items are classified as “penetrating objects.” I’ll let that one speak for itself.

Also, you cannot bring a Piñatas on a plane. You have no idea how desperately I want to know the story behind that. They should seriously publish the incidents that led to the banning of these things.

So all that’s going on, plus this week’s Watchtower has been chock full of guesty-goodness (that’s “guesty” not “Questy”). Not only do we have our conversation with the absolutely adorable Lights, but Paul McGuigan joins us on the show as well. You all may know him as the director behind the new movie “Push.” We were even supposed to have an interview with the ultra-cool Neil Gaiman, but sadly that one has yet to come to pass. Stay tuned though…

OK, I have to run now and write my name in all my underwear. It’s what my Mom did when I went to camp to make sure that I didn’t lose any. I figure New York Comicon won’t be much different.

Be good.

    They’re probably just worried that people would smuggle crack in pinatas or something, since you have to break it to see what’s inside.

  2. Jamie says:

    Well, crap. It was funny till it made sense. :)

  3. Murph says:

    Yeah, seriously. Way to go. We were having fun, and you got all serious on us.

  4. Snoopy says:

    Funny thing about the crack bit, that’s exactly what I was thinking. Still can’t wait for the Questy story. However, while we wait, I would have liked to post this to my Facebook profile. Where are the sharing links?

    Oh, and yes, the Transformers 2 ad was cool.

  5. S. Muffin says:

    I personally find crack-filled pinatas to be quite amusing anyway. :P

  6. Jamie says:

    Hmm… Snoopy, you bring up a good point. Add that to my to do list – need to add sharing stuff to No Reason.

    And I just noticed S.Muffin has been keeping tabs on some errors for us in the forums – so I’ll be going over those and correcting those mistakes ASAP. Thanks Muffin!

    I love it when you guys notice stuff!

  7. BraedenG says:

    Drug filled Pinatas? Is someone a Veronica Mars fan?

    That was a story on that show….

  8. Since the pinata ban, I’ve always found it’s easier to wrap sweets in condoms and make my little brother swallow them whole before going on flights. It’s also a lot more fun taking a stick to him to get the sweets back.

    Disclaimer: I’m joking. I don’t have a little brother. It’s easier to use orphans.

  9. As for ‘Questy’, I always just figured he was either a Seahawks fan, or was conceived in the stadium, like Brooklyn Beckham.
