Let’s go team!

Let’s check in with some of the sports teams we follow on this blog.

The Baltimore Orioles are still hovering around first place in the American League East. The Hiroshima Carp are 3 games under .500 just short of the bottom of the standings in the Central League. Sheffield Wednesday are very much in the running for relegation in the English Championship League. Ajax is battling for first place in the Dutch Premier League. Paris Saint-Germain is going to be relegated to the French Division 2.

The Ravens get a second league quarterback. I don’t know how Tampa Bay did.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Forgetting Sarah Marshall may only have been produced by Judd Apatow, but it still manages to find the same time warp capability to make 112 minutes seem like 130 minutes. It felt long, because Apatow seems to have a way at imparting length to his films by not doing much.

The first half was not making anyone laugh. The second half started to be funny. Not until the third half did we find some good comedy. Three halves? It felt like that long.

When did little Jackie, Mila Kunis, get hot?

That dude playing Aldous Snow — his funny accent — was a riot.

Ridiculous, but since it got funny towards the end, I’ll amuse myself and give it a so-so rating rather than below average.

3 of 5 stars.

Quote of the Day [4.26.08]

“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.”

President Eisenhower, 1961

Quote of the Day [4.25.08]

"I'm Haruhi Suzumiya, from East Junior High. First off, I'm not
interested in ordinary people. But, if any of you are aliens,
time-travelers, or espers, please come see me. That is all!"Haruhi Suzumiya: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya: translated into
English

沢近 愛理

Sawichika Eri is very confrontational with Harima Kenji. Does she have deeper feelings toward him? Or does she hate his guts and find him a fool? With Tsukamato out of the picture in the US, it looks as if Eri and Harima might find out what type of relationship they have.
