My daughter and I, we've somehow discovered another trail down in to the canyon, we're somewhere around Moab, or East Utah, maybe Arizona - and the trail runs through the red-rocks and balancing hoodoos and standard stark desert geography, only we found an entrance a little to the side, that descends following the trail above through Subterranean windings and blue shafts of light punctured through caves in the rocks above...in shades of blue you can see this great underground wilderness, water drips from above, cold and abundant, spring fed-pools, pale blue, and there are traces of arrowheads and ruins of old pueblos built underground...we didn't know this was here, it's a secret kept by the Rangers, and we continue...

He's got dozens of them, maybe even hundreds, some are ho-hum while others are actually pretty fucking brilliant. It's amazing - from the comments - how many people think he's serious. When he does it right he gives nothing away and he's got that backyard-American-Crazy down to a T. In others he goes that little bit too far - for my tastes at least.
Here's a few of his better ones:

And, finally, what I think is the best one so far:

Which is just sheer genius, and it works on so many levels.

I don't know what I was thinking. I mean, I do, after the lightness of the holiday fodder I wanted something with a little more depth and substance, and so I watched "Winter Light" by Ingmar Bergman. It's all that, but it's as well bleak and unforgiving, a masterpiece, perhaps, but not one tuned to my circumstance.

And a few of the films I watched over the holidays with and without the daughter: Shot Caller - her choice, absolute BS Prison film. Like LOL ridiculous. Bullshit. The Sixth Sense, which she liked, the twist and all, but then described it to a friend as "about a dead child psychologist"...No spoilers here. Weiner, about the infamous politician of the same name, and while it's easy to judge there's too often the confusion between a politician - his or her professed viewpoints and politics, with the politician, the person, and not many people are good at both. "Sausage Party", and yes, I certainly have to admire Seth Rogen for imparting his own brand of pot-addled brilliance to ... well, really, what was I thinking? It was brilliant, for sure, but entirely not my thing and life's a little bit too short. And finally, the clear winner of the season - "Nice Guys" - which was that funny and then some. If you see one make it the last one.
