Flowers Of Turnips

Hello Funny One here. I’ve just watched the movie Abraham Lincoln the vampire hunter on DVD. Great movie. And it’s based on real life. The FBI just hid all the evidence. Hehehehehe! Just joking. I did more of my rewrite. I’ve written just under two thousand words. I would like at least seven thousand words. I’ve also did another funny one cartoon. I’m still making my magic medicine. I wonder what it will make. I haven’t read what happens in the book. Well anyways I hope you like it. Here it is. I’ll finish here for tonight.

Funny One On The Baftas

Hello Funny One here. Last time I said I would talk more about the Baftas so here I am. Best film went to Argo. I haven’t seen this movie so I don’t know if it’s any good or not. Is it? Outstanding British film went to Skyfall. I thought that would win. It’s a great movie. Best director went to Ben Affleck for Argo. I thought Ang Lee was going to win it. Best actor went to Daniel Day-Lewis for Lincoln. He deserved to win. His performance was amazing. Anyways, Best actress went to Emmanuelle Riva for Amour. I’ve never seen and have no idea what it’s about. Best supporting actor went to Christoph Waltz for Django Unchained. Both him and Javier Bardem were great. So I was happy with that one. Best supporting actress went to Anne Hathaway for Les Misérables. I thought Dame Judi Dench deserved to win it. She was great in Skyfall. Anyone whose seen the Skyfall will agree with me on that. Outstanding debut by a British writer, director or producer went to Bart Layton, Dimitri Doganis for The Imposter. I have no idea what it’s about. I haven’t seen it. Best foreign language film went to
Amour. The only ones I saw that were nominated were Rust and Bone and Untouchable. I like them both. Best animated feature film went to Brave. I really don’t l;ike it. It’s so cliché. Best original screenplay went to Django Unchained written by Quentin Tarantino. He did deserve it. It was fucking awesome! Best adapted screenplay went to Silver Linings Playbook written by David O. Russell. I would have loved it if Life of Pi or Lincoln had won. Best original score went to Skyfall. I thought that would win. I knew Skyfall would win some. Cinematography went to Life of Pi. The cinematography for this movie was really was mind-blowing. Editing went to Argo. I thought Skyfall would have won that. Production design went to Les Misérables. there’s no way it’s better than Life of Pi. Costume design went to Anna Karenina. I thought Lincoln should have won. Sound went to Les Misérables. Really. Did they not hear Anne Hathaway singing? Obviously not. Special Visual Effects went to Life of Pi. What else would have won? Make-up and hair went to Les Misérables. Really? Did they not see Anne Hathaway? Short animation went to The Making of Longbird. Haven’t seen but I thought it might win. Short film went to Swimmer. Have no idea what it’s about. Is it about swimming? Documentary went to Searching For Sugar Man. And finally The Rising Star Award went to Juno Temple. That’s what happens when you let the public vote. Anyways, I’ll finish here for now.

There’s Nothing Wimpy about South Dakota!!!

Hello, Funny One here. I went to the cinema with my mom and sisters to see the movie “Diary Of A Wimpy Kid 3 – Dog Days” today. It’s so funny! I loved the scene where Rodrick gets the kiss of life from some bald guy! hahahaha You should go see it! It was really busy there. Someone made a shitty smell. I mean really shitty! Think of a really bad shitty smell and times it by ten, then double it! Plus, add a skunk fart and a hint of baby-bio then you’ve got it. Speaking of shit, I almost bought a huge poster of Justin Bieber. I know what you’re thinking. Why the hell would I buy a Justin Bieber poster? I was buying more Batman and Spiderman posters today and the Batman and Bieber ones got mixed up. They both had the number 3 on them. I only discovered it was the wrong poster when I noticed a check shirt on it. Anyways, I put it back and got the right one. Phew!

What can you do in South Dakota? You can see Mount Rushmore. On the 4th of July, there is a firework display from the top of the monument. That would be super cool to see!

You want to know more about the history of South Dakota, then you can visit these places: The Broken Boot Gold Mine, where informed guides will show you where the miners pursued gold ore veins with black powder and candlelight. Also there is the Four Mile Old West Town, Black Hills Caverns, Black Hills Mining Museum, and The Mitchell Prehistoric Indian Village, which is the only archaeological site in South Dakota that is open to the public. You should definitely go then. Visitors to the site will be able to see the many artifacts that have been excavated during the annual digs. You will even be able to have a tour to see the dig site itself in the comfort of the Thomsen Center Archeodome.

Do you like reptiles? If yes then visit the Reptile Gardens. You will see the five reptiles: snakes, crocodilians, lizards, turtles and tuatara. http://www.reptilegardens.com/

Kevin Costner has a bar there! I didn’t know that. It’s called the Midnight Star. Get drunk and look at his movie costumes.

What about teddy bears? If you do there’s the Teddy Bear Town,  and is home to the Guinness World Record’s “Largest Teddy Bear Collection.”  There are over 7,500 different Teddy Bears. Different colors and sizes. It is also listed in Ripley’s Believe It or Not.

There’s even a Corn Palace. It’s open all year round and it’s FREE to visit. I’ll have to go and visit then. It’s never completely bare, so you can always see a building that is the World’s Largest Bird Feeder! Also you can get a Corn Palace T-shirt, Caramel Apple Cobs and even some Corn on the Cob Soap. http://www.cornpalace.org/

What about the candy? There’s a candy store called “Old Fashioned Fudge”, and they have 30 different types of fudge. Mmmmmm fudge.
