Gung He Fat Choy!

It's MY year, baby!

And, from The Onion:
Craigslist Apartment Listing Uses Record 354 Exclamation Points
SAN FRANCISCO—A Craigslist advertisement for a two-bedroom apartment in San Francisco's Castro district has set an all-time Internet record for exclamation-point usage with 354, the Bureau Of Statistics reported Tuesday. "The 28 exclamation points following the lead phrase, 'MUST SEE,' were excessive, but not record-breaking," said BOS statistician Randall Carrey. "But within the ad itself, the word 'nice' is in all caps and followed by 354 marks. Quite extraordinary." The previous online record, 312, was set in a 2003 eBay listing for Camaro parts.

If five exclamation points is a sure sign of a deranged mind ....

So I'm cleaning my room (a Sisyphean task), and I discovered a gag sketch I did more than a year ago, but didn't post it because it pertained to the show I was working on at the time so a)no one would get it and b)I'd be breaking my non-disclosure agreement by revealing bits of the show before it was released. Of course, by the time it had been released, I'd forgotten about the sketch, which is why I am posting it today.

The project was Dragons 2: The Metal Ages (which, coincidentally, is A LOT BETTER than the first one, even though I realise that isn't saying much) and there's a bit in the script where the two kings (fathers of the main characters) are discussing battle plans. It turns out that it's basically going to be a suicide mission, but they agree to go anyway (??). King Siddari says 'And if we die ... our hope is to die like kings!' Well, my mind being full of inappropriate connections, I could only think that THIS is how kings die.
