                'And so if you enjoy videeing Homer's adventures', your (wo)man Betty White as Betty White, and hosting the PBS pledge drive says it better of The Simpsons' pater-famelia®is’ (hooker please –id.) shenanigans in an episode of the TV show of the same name, 'or should I say / misadventures, then please call / now.'  You've heard the shill before - and Cin will repeat it during today's WTFednesday's edition of this Take This Thing Back to Baltimore me-moirs and (f)log - if you enjoy reading about (y)our man Cin the humble(d) narrator of the same’s  (s) / (b) / (s) / mis and just / adventures, keep reading people. 

                'You just saved my network' Rupert Murdoch as Rupert Murdoch says it better to end the aforementioned episode, before during and after son Bart Simpson calls in to the Fox telethon with a $10,000.00 pledge, 'wouldn't be' Bart answers back, breaking television's 4th wall, and not for the first time - the show about him and his family having kept the network in the black more or less, and more / than once - 'the first time', saving my network is all / we gots.

                ©in is after breaking all / the rules of a WTFednesday evening up on out on up on out up here, he videed The Simpsons in the evening, and set off your (wo)man the ®obot Miletka ®obo-sweeper on its 30-minute robo-drive around / the cindomnium, if for no other reason than to run over and draw into its felty felt pad the detritus which Cin had not just swept up immediately before, using its cousin the Miletka broom.  If Miletka Inc. and its wide-range of domestic products has not received a hearty f®ee! flog up on out on up on this Take This Thing Back to Baltimore mem-moirs and (f)log as of late, well then it has / now, please pledge your support for further f®ee ! flogging at the home site of this Take This Thing Back to Baltimore me-moirs and (f)log, chez the company formerly known as goggle in©.

                'The truth has many enemies' the actor playing the Dominican priest in tonight's movie about the Spanish (mis)treatment of the Bolivian native people, 'and lies have many / friends', it's as good a slogan / as any, innit Electrfied J©.  Course this week's editions of House Arrest the Horror / Take This Thing Back to Baltimore me-moirs and (f)log were 'asupposed to be Halloween horror film horroreviews editions, culminating in this Friday's October 31st final Friday the 13th Jason van der Hies horror / marathon, innit monsieur debonaire, but Cin is easily / distracted, and he will cinstead rifle through the exotic 5 DVD collection which he rented earlier on this evening, he has already rifled through an Italian number called 'I Cannibale' , which was too hard to follow / to describe, that fim had the unenviable role of playing during the dinner / after-dinner nap shift up on out on up on out up here, from which Cin always bolts upright awake, never knowing wtf he is, wtf day it is, wtf time it is, and wtf How Does It Feel / the Category, expecially of a WTFednesday evening, ©innibalism is all / we gots.

                Good times, what it is in this movie is that some movie folks in Bolivia go up on out on up into the Andes mountains - where the Argentinian Rugby Club, before during and after an air trip crash in that movie Alive, 'ate' Danny Torrence in Kubrick’s take on your The Shining innit Mr. King said it better about the Donner Party in that movie 'each other / up' - to film a movie about the early days of the Spanish scum that came to that area hundreds of years ago and destroyed the Mayan civilization. 

                Course these are all racist and historically and geographically cincorrect generalizations, but hopefully you get / the idea, Cin is 'assupposed to be after hulk-smashing away at this Take This Thing Back to Baltimore me-moirs and (f)log up on out on up on up in here, and not translating / sub-titles.  It looks like a good movie, it breaks the 4th wall all over the place, very leftist and meta, somefink to do with 'the scene with the cross' will be the deal-breaker, innit Elect®ified J©, all the Indian extras in the film are protesting the current government's appropriation, or should we say / missappropriation, of the village's water supply, even as their predecessors  500 years ago tried to save their village from the Spanish / conquistadors (that's enough -id.) and even as the yuppy leftist film-makers see their Best Foreign film Oscar dreams too dry / up, Spanish / ©inquistadors is all / we gots.

                Course Ronald Jaffe's film The Mission had the same plot, though less meta, only it was set in the time of the conquisitadors and soundtracked by that beautiful haunting pan flute music, Cin wants to say Zefferelli, it might have been Enrico / Merricone.  'I'm not a businessman', Jay Z sings it better, 'I'm a business, man' and so in these films the Spanish / French / English conquistadors and / or the clergy who accompany them are always rapacious business, man, raping the locals and the local environments in their cinsatiable lust - never / slaked - for gold + territory + souls. 

                Course The Mission had Robert de Niro as a mercenary-turned-Jesuit novice, along with Jeremy Irons and Liam Neeson, de Niro’s character hauling around his old metal mesh bag full of his armor from his former life as a form / of penance, ©in used to / still does the same with his Northface bag loaded to the gills, so that he never forgets during his various (s) / (b) / (m) / mis and just plain / adventures what he is 'assupposed to be doing up on out on up on out on up on out on this Dog and Pony Show, namely hulk-smashing away at every given opportunity at this Take This Thing Back to Baltimore me-moirs and  glog.

                'Excitable  boy' Warren Zevon sang it better in his song of the same name, 'they all said', and so the protagonists in this film are excitable boys, all rolled 'rrrrr's and 'por favors' mixed in with liberal doses of Catholic guilt for what their forefathers did so that they could do up into the jungle and shoot / their documentary or whatnot.  Script jumps the shark when before during and after the actor playing the protagonist of the film-within-the-film, in full Magua from Micahel Mann’s film take on Fenimore Cooper’s The Last of the Mohicans warpaint make-up - in the film-wthin-the-film about to be burnt to death at the stake for daring to talk back to the conquisitadors (that's enough – id) or wtf - is arrested during the actual filming of the scene, fire at his feet and all, by the local real-time police who Out ©ome the ©uffs the actor and drag him, in the middle of filming, to their policia jeep, and who don't appreciate the actor's meddling in the real-time controversy over the local village's water supply, 'the devil I renounce' the crooked monk in Jean-Jacques Annaud's take on Umberto Eco’s The Name of the Rose spits out at F. Murray Abraham's Spanish Inquistor Bernardo Gui better under similar circumstances, namely repent / or die, innit Electrified JC, 'is you, Bernardo / Gui', Out ©ome the ©uffs is all / we gots.

                'Do ya' the crusty Irish sea captain akses Richard Dreyfuss' scientist character it better in Steven Spielberg's Jaws, 'folla?'  Neither / does Cin, this movie jumps  the shark as it bites off more than it can / chew, jumping the shark by biting off more than we can chew is all / we gots, 'dying' Joe Biden ressurects an Irish proverb better, 'on a big cross' is all / we gots, innit Electrified J© (that's enough -id.), 'management' the participant at a recent meeting that Cin was at said it better apropos running / things one horror / after the next, 'by crisis', this last one cincluded in the list only because Cin liked the sound of it, it's a first cousin to his new management philosophy, borrowed like most of his philosophies, from someone else, 'mind over matter' it's called, aka 'if I don't mind, it doesn't matter', it's a good as slogan as any for someone used to management by crisis, to juggling / chainsaws up on out on up on this Dog and Pony Show for a living, as slogans,  dying on a big cross, management by crisis, and mind over matter is all / we gots.

                What's next, pray tell, during this Halloween Week / of horrors?  This week is given over every year to  the genre / idea / horror of horror, while Cin by necessity and by long familiarity is a student of the Thing / itself, 'horror' Brando's Colonel Walter Kurtz says it better in Francis For Coppola’s Apocalypse Now , apropos his choice / of weapons, 'horror and / terror', horror and / terror is all we / gots.

                'Horra / and terra' Cin says it better as he walks around / the ©indominium just now, taking a quick break from Hulk-smashing away at this WTFednesday edition of this Take This Thing Back to Baltimore mem-moirs and (s)log, affecting an English accent as is / his wont when he wants to impress your men the ©indominium cats and his ®oomamtes It©hy / and Scrat©hy.  Course we don't need no stinking movie to find horra / and terra up on out on up on this Dog and Pony Show, the flags across the street at the War Museum are still flying at half-mast in honour of the two soldiers slain last week, it's a touching gesture, this year's Remembrance Day sure to be an emotional one up on out on up on out on up up here.

                Also horra found in this movie 'Metropolitan', apparently it got the proverbial nod for an Oscar nomination for Best Screenplay, though so far said screenplay / is brutal, what it is is a bunch of Upper East Side 'New York Social Types' one of the irritating eleven-teen characters says it worse.  Course Cin flies into an unholy rage every time he sees a movie about New York, the City that Got / Away - so far - but this one is particularly / egregious, whitebread tuxedo and debutante gown-wearing aristo one-percenters going on and on and on about each other and their frightfully brutal / lives.

                'Really ?' one of the debutantes akses the latest addition to their social circle worse, after he says he's 'a walk home after one of their 'parties', instead of taking a cab with the rest of the zombies 'it's terribly / cold.'  Not as cold as it's about to be when Cin sets the 'timer' function of Tosh the telee's TV remote to 5 minutes, cinstead of the usual 60, by which time he's usually as dead / to the world as these mummies up on-screen.
