Wacky Movie Ideas (Part II)

So Kirk provided the rest of the movie plot synopsis to "The Custodian". If you missed part 1, scroll down to the previous post below.

Title: The Custodian

Tagline: A custodian with a mysterious past goes above and beyond his job description....

Plot Synopsis: (Part 2)

It turns out that custodian Jack is really Jack Bauer. Jack has been recently unemployed and was looking to change things up a bit. He wanted a job with very little stress but good pay. He saw a job ad for a custodian and he thought he would be a good fit.

Needless to say, he took down all the bad guys and took home the world record for the highest body count in a period of five minutes.

Wacky Movie Ideas

So if you can ever get a glimpse into my mind, there's always a bunch of crazy ideas brewing in there. It never suffers from inactivity which is sort of a bad thing because it's always thinking of multiple things at once. It's not very good if I'm driving because my mind can start processing on some crazy ideas and my focus will shift away from my driving and go towards fueling my imagination.

Anyways, I was eating breakfast in the hotel lobby today and thought of an interesting movie idea.

Title: The Custodian

Tagline: A custodian with a mysterious past goes above and beyond his job description....

Plot Synopsis: (Part 1)

Jack is just your average custodian. He has been working at the local town hospital for a few months now. The entire hospital staff loves this guy. He's friendly, personable, always mops the floors squeaky clean and does a fantastic job efficiently cleaning the rest of the facility. The hospital is about 8 stories tall and he manages to clean the entire facility by lunch time. He loves to start his duties in the early hours of the morning in order to allow time to take care of any surprises such as a sudden leaky faucet or a clogged cafeteria sink. In the afternoon when he is done with all of his primary duties, he chats with the nurses, secretaries, and doctors, building a good relationship with his co-workers. He is after all considered part of the hospital staff.

One day, a rather important person comes into the hospital ER. I don't really care why this person is important at this point. Anyways, this person was badly injured in a car accident and this was the closest hospital from the scene of the accident. The hospital staff proceeds to move this person up to the 8th floor after he/she is in a stable condition. This very important person's security detail decides to keep this person there since moving him/her could possibly make the medical condition worse. Also, no one knows this important person is at this hospital currently, let alone involved in an accident. If he/she gets moved, the person's enemies may see the massive caravan of vehicles moving from one hospital to another. The leader of the security detail decides to lay low for a few days.

Of course, with any standard Hollywood movie, there is a mole in the security detail. This mole notifies a terrorist organization that wants to take this person out since he/she knows something very secretive. I don't really care why the terrorists want to take this person out either, but they just do.

The terrorists end up being a team of mercenaries that consist of former special forces people from various countries like Mexico, Peru, and other sketchy exotic locations. They are all greedy people eager to make some money. The mole in the security detail paid these guys a ton of money to eliminate this person off the face of the planet.

The following morning, a pair of mercenaries begin their assault. They enter through the front entrance because they think they are awesome. They immediately take out two guys from the security detail, who were relaxing next to the water-cooler located near the entrance of the hospital on the first floor. *pop* *pop* *pop* *pop* The two security guys drop to the floor.

Jack was mopping down the hall and when he heard the popping noise. He turned around and saw the mercenaries take aim at him. "Oh shh!@#$!", he says......

Look for Part 2 later. I'm tired of typing.

Would you like to contribute to what happens next? Write in what you would like to see happen next as Jack confronts these mercenaries. Remember, he can't die quiet yet so you can't have him get shot next....

Missouri River Flooding

The Missouri River is starting to swell from the excess rainfall. There has also been massive amounts of snowfall this past winter in the mountains of North Dakota and Montana which are all now just starting to melt. The excess water has exceeded the capacity of the river.....

The level of the river is expected to rise over the next few weeks...no one can know exactly how much it'll rise.

These are some baseline shots for comparison. I will try to take some shots in a few weeks and see how the water levels are....

Some areas like Haworth Park shown above, are already completely underwater. Evacuations are underway for some of the smaller towns near the river.

This is pretty crazy to say the least!
