Clerks 2

I got round to watching this finally. It had been sitting on my shelf, for about a year.
I chose, to watch the intro with Kevin Smith, and Jason Mewes  

``37''
``Home boy f-cked a Martian once. '' Yes there are many bad words. It iss that part of Jersey, which without the Sopranos, is pure white bread and mayo. The heroes of this tale, are fast food clerks. Randal and Dante, the stars of Clerks.
Hellen Keller and Anne Frank are confused, by Randal
Ben Affleck makes a brief appearance, as customer. 
Only a few lines, there was a slight falling out after Jersey Girl
Transformers are a gift from god. Randall is 33, Transformers should have been something he caught the end of .
Kevin Weisman (Marshall from Alias) plays a Lord of the Rings fanboy-baited into sickness by Randal
Jason Lee, now TV's Earl- (My name is Earl) makes an appearance as a former classmate. This classmate is remembered infamously, as Pickle F-cker.
The Pickle F-cker has now made millions via the Internet. Amazon bought his company for millions. Randal's crude attempt at revenge, is sidestepped. This leaves Randal, flustered and flummoxed
Randal, and Dante, retire to ride go-kart's To the tune of Burt Bacharach's
"Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raindrops_Keep_Fallin'_on_My_Head

After there ride, Randal expresses his fear. 
The world has left them behind. The world is leaving him behind. His best friend Dante, is moving to Florida, and is off to get married to a pretty blonde . Randal will be left with a co worker half his age.
Raindrop's keep falling, reminds the viewer that Dante and Randal, are like Butch and Sundance. 
The world is leaving them behind. The kids, prefer Lord of the Rings. The kids, they teased now triumph in the stock market.  The partnership Randal's life is based on, is now going to be superseded
There is actually a Musical number. 
In it, Dante, confesses his love for the divine Rosario Dawson. His Boss,
One of the more disturbing skits, is the newbie, description of his girl friends ``Pussy troll''
One of the best set piece jokes- I can remember.- It is very obviously foreshadowed 
Randal speaks of watching Bachelor Party on Beta. 
We are getting old. Maybe we should stop trying to conform, and do what makes us happy. We had our day in the sun. Now its time for someone else to be the kids.

Song for today ``There’s gotta be more…’’

I am borrowing this content for a moment. Yes I am aware I have a child’s musical taste http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUOcQnWbk_U&feature=related I used to catch this song,on one of the music channels, a few years ago.  I liked it. Its a nice enough song.  Stacey O, is a sweet young lady. Who tired of the music business and became a volunteer in Africa. I have been listening to it all day today. I downloaded if from Amazon. It catches a moment in adolescence when, you start working, and its mopping floors, or loading books onto barrows. You go to college and its waiting around all day for three hours of lectures, eating instant noodles, and maybe watching Star trek, or the Simpsons  and going to bed. So you go to the club on the weekend. You go to the underwear party. You get drunk, but that’s it isn’t it

Malchera in High school

Will from the in-betweeners, with bad skin, look at the area arround my left eye. I have just had a bout of conjuctiveitis. That and my half smile, to conceal my cracked incisor and dirty teeth... I don't know why I actually possess this picture. School Photographs, now there is racket. They take you out of class, and take your picture, and charge you for the picture. Anyway, my mother never paid for the school photographer. She had 4 children in the same school,  and paying for 4 photographs, would not have been cheap. I do remember the day though. Before me, the busty Kelly Panei, had gone first. The photographer had made a crack about beauty and the beast, so I knocked over his stand on the way out... But for years after, this was my mental image of myself...
