The Game Show Network (you do have to fill up the 500 channels with something) is showing The Amazing Race from season one to last year’s season seven.
Well since I started around season three, I have set my Tivo to record. (A new one with a bigger HD and cheaper too!) I am not gonna blog about it but it is good to make note of it.
Fantastic Four 2 of 5 stars. Action with no action. Should’ve stayed in the 60s mileaux. Although Jessica Alba is hot.
Dark Water 2 of 5 stars. Boring. Not scary and the story is predictable.
Wedding Crashers 3 of 5 stars. Funny, but thinking it over it is just not that great.
It’s July! Happy Tour de France month! Lance Armstrong looks to win it a seventh time. I think that it is a sucker’s bet to bet against the best tour rider this century. Allez, Lance!
Only thing though, I can’t find an audio feed so that I can listen in at work. Do you know where I can find a link?
I just have to provide a link to Sarah Vowell’s op-ed today in the New York Times. It’s nothing special. It’s just that I feel the need to linking to her right now. Sweet!
Just returned back from vacation. Will post the travel log later this week. And maybe pictures. My DirectTivo ain’t working. So tired. And the boat, she still a rocking.
Tom Cruise is a good actor. The Steven Spielberg’s version War of the Worlds not so good.
I wondered why make a remake anyway when it is so like the 1950s version.
I hated the fact that what was added to the story was the father healing his family and saving his imperiled children. It did not help that Dakota Fanning was one of the kids in danger. Everytime she was threatened I was rooting for the aliens.
Same lame virus ending.
2 of 5 stars.
Once every so often I do get a chance to go on a vacation. This time a cruise in the Caribbean. We’ll be hitting the Puerto Rico(? or the Bahamas not sure which), St. Thomas and St. Maartens. Maybe I will find that lost chick.
Alas, I am not planning on doing any real time blogging of the vacation, but instead, I will keep a journal and when I get back I will give it too you one a day. Just like the last cruise I was on.
Hope to see you, when I get back. But laterz for now.
It is July and once again it is time for the sporting spectacle known as Le Tour de France. I like reading this blog for tour updates. They are getting better and better each year.
My prediction is Lance again. Of course that is the safe bet, but after the first stage today. It seems more likely to come true than not.
Oh, yeah, I forgot. I saw Lords of Dogtown last week also. Shows how memorable the movie was.
Watching it I kept waiting for one of the skaters to pop a backside kick flip 360. Alas, they were still sidewalk surfing. I loved the pool scenes. Jay Adams must be one fucked up dude. The actors were second rate.
3 of 5 stars. It made me want to skate.
That title should properly be George A> Romero’s Land of the Dead. Yes a new movie from the zombie master himself. And to distinguish this one from the other copy cats, the zombies return to their slow ways. If you ask me that is more scarier.
“Look a zombie!”
(minutes pass)
“Raarrr”
I don’t understand the appeal of zombies. Are they scary? If they’re as slow as Romero’s version. I think I can run away from them and I do a 5.5 forty! The movie was alright, but nothing special.
How come we have to have a zombie revival everytime some nut Republican is in the White House? Is it because we are all mindless scum to have put them in power?
3 of 5 stars.
