Blog Marco

I was reading some news and the article had the "had had" phrase in there... Looked it up this strange little snippet of the English language on Google and it had about 8 million pages which used the phrase. Some examples of "had had" usage are: "Mum had had three drink-driving charges before 10am"; "I've had had blood clots before with my period but this time it was hard not jello feeling?"

Some fellow even wrote a stupid riddle about it:

"Ann while Bob had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher."

This "Had had" puzzle requires correct punctuation (i.e. using commas, full stops and quotation marks) to make any sense. Answer at the end of this blog entry.

Here's what some people had to say about "had had": It is the is pluperfect of "to have". "He had had a bad day." - In that sentence: "He had had a bad day" indicates that the experience occurred (and was completed) prior to another experience under discussion. As compared to: "He had a bad day" which talks about the type of day the person experienced.

Wicked Game by Chris Isaak, Soft Rock/Pop Released 1989. This is music viso is perhaps the classiest of the whole lot. Shot in black and white it shows a coulple prancing around on a beach, getting all touchy-feely. The hot part is when the woman is feeling herself all over and stripping, revealing a butt crack and some cleavage. Towards the latter part of the video the woman is obviously topless and the couple is shown in a few VERY sexy positions. Sexy factor 10/10. Great because it isn't sleazy and is more on the artistic side.

A lot of readers are making even more requests for other sexy music videos. So If you haven't already, go read the first post Sexiest Music Videos Of All Time.

Music videos tend to be on the sexy side most of the time - especially of the hip hop and pop genres. I find that it is hard to find a hip hop video without the sex part of the equation. It's all about the boobs and the bouncing booty now. Back in the eighties it was a different story. Think back to Public Enemy and Beastie Boys. I guess the genre evolved (think 1992 when Sir Mixalot - Baby got Back; I like big butts came on the scene. to include more and more sex until we had this sex glut on music videos. [[Actually I'm kicking myself here - I wrote this paragraph before I did the reviews below - most of the videos here are DANCE music videos]]

Stargate Atlantis has tied up the last episode of this season in "The Last Man" (Season 4 Episode 20). It has been awhile since Atlantis has had a decent story arc. They were floundering around ever since they got back from their mid-season break. But this story was well-written (in Stargate Atlantis standards - nothing could beat the original SG-1).

The CGI for the new ship the Phoenix - looked much like the Daedalus. The only other CGI that looked a bit tacky and reminded me of computer game CGI effects last decade was the off-world factory which exploded. I guess they had budgetary constraints. But the story made up for that.

Stargate Atlantis S04E20 Episode Synopsis: The Last Man: Sheppard returns from a mission to find Atlantis abandoned and high and dry on a sand dune thousands of years after his last search for Teyla, but all maybe set right after seeing a hologram of an aged Dr. McKay.
