Promotion #2!

Hey, you found it!
Great job! Read along this blog for more details and the Daily Movie Quotes. If you came to this blog from instructions on the flyer, good job! You have found promotion #2! Here's how the scavenger hunt works: when you find the first promotion, there will be a clue to the next promotion. And so on, until you get to the last promotion, in which case there will be a message saying to email us at techincolorzine@gmail.com (yes, techincolor is supposed to be spelled wrong) and tell us the promotions that you saw along with your name and email address! And if you win, you get your name posted in our magazine in our Technicolor Wall of Fame! What is more cool than that?! Before you leave though, you may want to read the directions for our uber-awesome scavenger hunt and get the clue to the next promotion:

-You must go in order of promotions. We will ask for the order in which you got the clues in, and if you aren't in order, you lose. If you are missing any in your list, you lose as well.
-The clues on the promotions lead to the next one, they may be a little hard to decipher. But do your best!
-We will not give you any answers or hints to the clues if you ask us. We will turn you down.

Okay, now here's your clue:
For this awesome hunt,
As plain as can be,
Clues are a plenty,
Even for you and me.
But just you remember,
On this clue there might be
One secret message
Kept hidden, can you see?

Keep looking, somewhere the clue says where the next promotion is, but if you can't get it, the next promo is on a PAGE of Technicolor. But, it may not be a magazine page... Did you find the clue yet? If so, good. But if not, I hope you will still be a FAN of us. And if you're not, maybe you should BECOME A FAN! Now on to promotion #3!

-underappreciated annoying little cuss (UALC)

Hey guys! It's me, the mysterious Froot Loop. Y'all may know the Leslie Cochran of Austin, but do you really know him? Do you really know he was born in Miami, FL, Jacksonville Hospital, 3rd floor, East Wing (he forgot the room number unfournately)? In the article "Richest Hobo in Austin" (the title was supposed to something else but Ms. Young thought it was too vulgar), find out more about the famous Austinite!

Weekly Movie Quote

"Somebody's gotta go back and get a sh*t load o' dimes!"

Hint: This movie is pretty much the most racist, foul, cheesy, gross, and ultimately funny movie with an all-star cast, with Gene Wilder (the old Willy Wonka) starring as a fast-handed, drunken, retired gunslinger.

Last Week's Answer: Stripes

A lot of you may have Mr. Spurgeon for Algebra II, but what do you really know about him? Did you know that he was born in Indiana? Didn't think so. Read the article "The Spurgeon Factor" to find out about this and more.

Camping Trip

Hey, fellow Technicolorians. I went on an awesome camping trip this weekend. We stayed right next to Moccasin Creek, infested with water moccasins. We also saw a beaver, complete with lodge, roasted marshmallows, had hot dogs for dinner, rode a "mule" (name of the golf cart) through the forest, and shot a 22. It was really fun. Oh yeah, there were tons of yellow wild flowers. You think I'm exaggerating, but I'm not. If you were looking at the meadow, it would look like a solid yellow. Here are some pictures of the trip:

Daily Movie Quote

"It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again."

Hint: This movie is credited as one of the only movies to win the five main Academy Awards: Best Screenplay, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Picture. You'd better get started finding the answer, so fly fly fly. Fly, fly, fly.

I think Mr. Under-appreciated annoying little cuss needs to stop posting because he is flooding the blog and swamping out all the good stuff. Change daily movie quote back to weekly. Or every other day.


~calico kitty

p.s. Under-appreciated annoying little cuss DO NOT TAKE THIS PERSONALLY! It is just a joke

Beware.

I think Mister Underappreciated, annoying little cuss (put in something random here) has a blog-posting fetish.
From his Daily Movie Quotes to "Things No one Cares About", he's filling up our motherboard. Quickly, if we don't stop his evil-doing, the world will be his to pollute with blog posts forever!
Beware, my grandchildren. Beware.

Daily Movie Quote

"In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life!"

HINT: This stars two now famous stars, like Sean Astin (who is well known for his role as Sam in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy) and Josh Brolin (Who was the star of No Country For Old Men and co-star of Milk).

Just read

I'm getting pretty tired of all the people out there who just get mad at others for no reason. It can be little or nothing, but to all those out there who take their anger out on others just because its Monday, stop. And to those of you reading this who say that they don't have a problem with this, bull. And no, I'm not taking my anger out on people just by writing this, I just want this to stop. Also, people love to point out what is "PC" and what isn't, yet no one, including the person pointing it out, don't really care. We all say racist jokes and call everyone names and things like that (and to the people who say they don't say racist jokes, laughing at them counts too.). So, "PC" is just at term that was probably made up by some sensitive crybaby who got offended at some joke or label directed at either their race or job (but if it's to one specific person, that's another situation entirely that can be considered offensive). And something else, no one cares about Justin Bieber. For those who find Bieber's music cool, examine your brain because you might have a tumor. That's what I call a House Connection because that's the kind of connection Dr. House would make (and he's usually right anyways). To make it easy for you readers, here is a list of things no one cares about:

-Justin Bieber
-myspace
-Jonas Brothers
-the Twilight vs. Harry Potter controversy
-whatever new trend fashion magazines announce in their new lines (two reasons: only rich people can afford them, and not even rich people buy them anyways 'cause they look like a retarded person made it in art class.)
-Kim Kardashian
-American Dad
-Octomom and her debt troubles
-Angelina's fetish for adopting foreign children and finding weird names for them
-the fact that you went to the gym last night
-any new diet on the market (they don't work anyways, and if they do they won't work for you)
-guest speakers on drugs or alcohol (we already know that stuff) (the drunk glasses thing is cool though)
-homework (saw that coming)
-the "I have read the terms and agree to the terms" check box
-whatever happened to Bush
-what you did last summer
-anything pop-ups sell
-those "if you or a loved one has been diagnosed with ____, you may be eligible for a large sum of money" commercials
-frauds from Africa asking for you credit card number
-American Idol (well, it's true)
-The Simpsons (stop denying it, it stopped being funny a decade ago)

"That's bad songwriting! You wrote a bad song Petey!"

HINT: This movie was nominated for best animated feature and best music this year, and the star was also nominated for an Academy Award for his role in "Up In the Air."

THURSDAY'S ANSWER: Ghost

P.S.- Hope everyone had a good Good Friday and has a happy Easter Sunday. My parents tried to hide my gift from me, but failed miserably. Not only did I see my gift, but they sort of gave it away when they asked "Alec, do you already have MONK Season 8?" They know I know. Again, hope everyone has a great Easter!

Daily Movie Quote (I changed it from weekly to daily)

"I do not like the cone of shame."

HINT: This movie won the Academy Awards for best animated feature and best music and was even nominated for best picture this year.

New Dreaded Question Piece

What happens when you mix a boring subject with a lazy student? You get what is called THE DREADED QUESTION! It is the infamous question "Why do we need to learn this?" This question I find very peeving because many students ask this a lot and my opinion on this just gets stronger with every inquiry. Be sure to read the article "The Dreaded Question!"

Coming Soon: Space Heater versus Air-Conditioner

There's a stupid battle raging on today all over the world: Edward Cullen vs. Jacob Black. In the article, Maggie will explain why the werewolf definetely trumps the bloodsucker. And hopefully bring the world to its knees in the process.

We'll never forget you , Tralon!

As some of you may have heard, the twins have gone. Tralon, a valued member of the Technicolor Team, won't be forgotten. Wherever the two are, we all hope they are having a great time and making tons of friends; after all, it should be easy for them. We miss you Tralon!

Ever Asked "Why do we have to learn this subject?"

It's a legitimate question, but everyone has their own opinion on this subject. Be sure to read the article on this, titled "The Dreaded Question". Be sure to read the new mag that will have everyone begging for more!

Coming Soon in Technicolor Magazine-Just Think About It

Forum is a social outlet for many students, and is a good opportunity to get information about colleges, grades and courses. But should it really be required?
