Hey folks, Harry here... typing at ya without the need for glasses. Now, I don't have a problem doing that usually, but as I'm always watching movies in the background, I have to have glasses on to see what's on that screen over there... Well, I don't know how many of you folks are like me... you've been a geek for a long time and you've been wearing glasses and those glasses helped to define your personality as well as your impression of your face. Well... A few days ago I went to see BOLT in 3D and - well, I hate putting 3D glasses on top of my regular glasses - and I don't want to go through with the expense of LASIK LASERING OF MY EYEBALLS - and I've always liked the eyedea of contacts. So a few days ago I randomly picked an Optometrist out to go get my eyeballs evaluated for the exo-lenses for me vision. Basically - I feel I need protection for the fucking that AVATAR is going to be giving my eyes this time next year. I don't know what brought me to Jerry Brinegar, OD - at Highland Mall - next to the LensCrafters, but ya know... sometimes the powers that be guide you to the absolute ideal physician to make things all awesome. Turns out Dr Brinegar is a big honking geek. So the small talk between the various eye tortures was about BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, STAR TREK, BENJAMIN BUTTONS, 3D, BLU-RAY and on and on and on. Hell, I think we even got a little LORD OF THE RINGS and STAR WARS in there. For me, it really took the nerves off. I mean... here this guy is, measuring my eyes, talking me through pinching stuff off my eyeball and the entire process for doing everything and... well, he totally put me in my element. It's like my regular doctor, whose office is covered with Marvel & DC superheroes memoribilia and posters. Is this normal? Are all doctors cool, or do I just randomly have the super power to weed them out. Cuz it sure feels like fate, when the only two doctors I've gone to see were big honking geeks. So cool. Anyway, Jerry was cool enough to email me my eyeballs to share with you. I know - you've seen my cut open leg and you've seen my exposed stomach... but here - you'll actually see the delivery device with which all movies enter my brain - and the nerves that carry them. Dr Brinegar says they're in excellent shape and I don't have any of the bad evil scary Diabetic problems with my eyes at all - which was a great relief. But right now - I'm just grooving to perfect peripheral vision. This shits amazing! Can't wait to go see POLAR EXPRESS at the IMAX in 3D or BOLT again!!!
