When you are laid to rest

I know this is a subject many do not want to think about. Many of you are saying to yourselves it`s too early to think about my own demise. Why I`m not even 50 yet. But after visiting a friend who had passed on it reminds one of their life and what they will leave behind. Now you might be thinking "What do you mean leave behind"?. Well when I walked around the room there were many pictures of my friend. There were pictures of him in his High School days. Some of his military career. And then there were pictures of him and his family. Then I thought to myself what pictures are there of me out there?  Suddenly my mind raced to every picture I have ruined by making a face or generally acted like a goof. I thought is this how I would want people to remember me? As this guy who couldn`t make a serious effort to take a good picture. But then I thought Wait a moment. When the inevitable comes and I pass on what will people want to see. A bunch of pictures of a nice smiling Geddon with a fake smile trying to take a nice picture. Or would they want to see the real me. The me they remembered. The Geddon who snarled his lip whenever a camera was ponted at him. The one of me  pointing at the camera and make a goofy smile. After thinking about it  I believe  my friends and family would want to remember the real me. The big goofy lug who just wanted to make people laugh and smile.

Favorite villain / douchebag actors.

Now I`m not saying that these actors are villains / douchebags in real life just that they play excellent V/D roles. Here is my list of my favorite V/D actors


1.  Dabney Coleman Dabney has played football executives,CEOs,and spies with a zeal for villainy most men do not cherish. Only Dabney can play these roles and make you actually like him. Kudos to Mr. Coleman!

 2.  William Atherton William has play DBs in numerous of roles. Notably his portrayal of a sleazy news anchor in the Die Hard series and  my personal favorite Prof. Jerry Hathaway from the cult classic Real Genius.

 3. Alan Rickman. Alan Rickman has played a evil Landowner and Aborigine killer in Quigly Down Under to the Sheriff of Nottingham with such evil glee that it is impossible to root against him. Although his character in the Harry Potter movies ends up being a hero his take on Prof. Snape is evilly delightful.

 4. Joe Pesci.  Mainly known for his portrayal of psychopathic mobsters he has portrayed them with a sense of humor. It`s hard to hate a guy who just shot a guy in the head and comes up with a witty one liner.


 5.Gene Hackman.  Although he isn`t known for playing villains he has set the watermark for scheming cowardly villains everywhere for his portrayal of Lex Luthor in Superman. He set the standard for slimey villains that is still copied today.Especially with Kevin Spacey`s reprising the role in 2006`s Superman.

Well folks that`s my top five.If you have any you would like to add to my list then drop me a line in the comment section. I love hearing from you guys but I only ask one thing. Please respond in English and not Chinese.


  

I`m Back!!

Sorry folks but when life gets in the way it`s hard to maintain a blog. But now I`m back and will start posting more. Many thanks to my readers for sending me over the 1,000 hit`s mark. I know it isn`t much but I am surprised that many people are interested in my opinion/nuttiness. So thanks for your interest. It really means a lot to me. By the way does anyone understand Chinese? Apparently I had 9 comments on my High School reunion and all are in Chinese. Hmmmm I`m wondering if they are planning something????
