Which I do of course.
I would watch it again and again, but with much popcorn and soda. Oh, and rapid access to the pause button on the remote to facilitate running commentary with my long-suffering husband. He only endures my love of trash horror/sci-fi movies only because he loves me more than coffee…usually…mostly.
(remember Evil Dead? Mars Attacks? Red Comet?!? I love those!!!)
Anyway – they introduce a character in that movie that I swore they were calling him Lord Jefferson (LJ for short). It immediately has become my favorite name for our as-of-yet unconceived first-born child. Can't you just imagine yelling that down the street when the little heathen doesn’t want to come home from his friend’s house?
“Lord Jefferson L***, get your butt home right this instant!’
“Good morning Lord Jefferson”
“Hello Lord”
We could even send him to boarding school in England, where he would immediately baffle the other children – Is he just a Deity? Or is he actually Titled? (I hear their priorities are a little whacked sometimes) So confusing!
Going straight to He11 – do not Pass Go, etc, etc.
My husband was somewhat amused, but I can tell the name idea wasn’t put on his “Serious Consideration For Naming A Child” list.
Then again, he likes the name Benedict. (which may indeed be a fine name for all of you Benedict-lovers out there, but it is not on MY SCFNAC list. I’m just saying that we don’t see eye to eye on the naming issue).
(Later IMDB’ing and Googling showed that the character’s actual name was Lloyd Jefferson). Somehow, it’s not quite as good that way….
Oooooh, I just noticed there’s a new Resident Evil coming out this year. Fun for the whole family!
And on a final note - it snowed this morning. Just a little, but here in the South, it counts!
Here's proof (and yes, that's snow, not salt or sand, so don't be a disbeliever.)
So Happy Valentine's Day.
