Shoot! Twenty miles at least back to Austin to find one of them little red box deals to rent me and the little lady a movie! By now I'm sure she's a wonderin' where I'm at and probably thinkin' I'm a dilly-dallyin'. Hey, it wasn't my fault it took so long in H-E-B trying to find that dang cheddar cheese popcorn. You never know where you'll find anything in those great big stores. I mean, think about it for a minute. Where are you goin' to find the microwave popcorn in a store that's bigger'n the town I was born in? And not just any popcorn, mind you. I shell out the big bucks for my little lady and get her the "gor-may" brand like Orville Redenbachers's (Note to the young-uns: That's how you treat a lady!). Course, I don't think there's anything wrong with Jiffy Pop (I guess I'm still old-school), but I get the little lady what she wants.
I guess I was standin' there lookin' kinda stumped when some young 20-somethin' kid in a red H-E-B apron come up to me and asks if I need some help. I almost back-handed him for being so presumptuous, but I didn't have time to make a scene, so I told him what I was lookin' for. He told me to wait right there and he'd fetch it for me. 'For I knew it, he was back with the Orville Redenbacher's and askin' me if there was anything else he could do for me. He was startin' to bug me because I ain't no dad-burned invalid, you know. He kinda slunk off, so I headed for the check-out line.
So I finally got back on the road headin' for Austin. It took me dam-near 2 more hours to get to the McDonald's and then back home on account of the distance and also the fact that I had a slight error in judgement by pickin' up a hitchhiker as I was drivin' through Maynor. I don't want to bore you with the details, so I won't bother to tell you about how I see this young teen-age kid a standin' by the side of the road with his thumb in the air and a wearin' clothes that made me at first think he was a escaped clown from the Ringlings Brothers circus with his baggy pants hangin' down and his underwear a showin' like that and how he made this face when he first climbs into the cab like he never smelled a farm truck before and how he wasn't much for polite conversation on the way and how I told him I could take him all the way to Cameron Road like he wanted but I first had to stop at the little red box at McDonald's and how he kept lookin' like he was disgusted and finally how we got to McDonald's and when I got out to get the movie he jumped out the other side and took off a runnin' and how I ended up takin' the first movie that showed up on the screen (Avatar) and how I got back into my truck to find out that escaped clown had took my wife's Orville Redenbacher's. I guess he was hungry. Anyway, I figure this movie review has gone on long enough, so let me recap by saying that's why I believe Avatar is Anti-American. Thanks a lot, James Cameron!
A quick shout-out to Eleazar and Joe for their comments on Part 1. Thanks a lot, I think.
Hell Yeah Blaine! That damn yankee thinks he can fool me with his special effects. James Cameron is a jerk and owes the military a HUGE appology. I'd like to take my hero Toby Keith and go beat him up and swim in his cement pond. I really enjoy readin' your Blog. Keep on keepin' on brother.

WHAT THE HELL!!!! At first I thought you were making grammatical errors left and right and then realized you were doing it on purpose. LOL! But seriously I want to know your reasoning for why you feel Avatar is non-American. I'll have a good response once you finally get it out there and quit teasing us! LOVE YOU!
