Grrrrrrr. I was in a wee bit of a mood yesterday … that was until I got home and there were two dvds that I had ordered waiting for me in the mail box. Rock!

One of my rose bushes was looking quite spectacular just before I headed out on vacation.

The highlight of “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer” was a full trailer for “The Simpsons Movie.”
While in New York (Re-Redux)
While In New York (Redux)
Last Friday afternoon while kicking around, Scott and I decided to take in a movie. Unfortunately for us we chose “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.” Scott has some more detailed thoughts about this dreadful piece of crap movie … but I want to talk solely about (you guessed it) Chris Evans. He’s pretty much the only reason to see the film. Michael Chiklis doesn’t really have anything to do and Ioan Gruffudd and Jessica Alba are really terrible actors. And I mean REALLY terrible … as in laughably bad. But Chris Evans has got great spunk and personality on screen. Sad thing is that the shirtless scene he does is totally gratuitous and not necessary especially where it is just stuck into the cookie cutter plot. My advice: If you want to see Mr. Evans shirtless, watch “Cellular” which is a much better piece of popcorn entertainment. You can save your money on “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer” by looking at the picture below.
While in New York
I bought this really hot card (“In The Sling”) by Drub at The Leather Man.
NYC Trip Pictures!
Well … here they are … exciting pictures from my weekend in the big city. I have been toying with the idea of buying another “point and shoot” camera just for trips and such. I have found that I take fewer pictures with the big dog Digital Rebel. Anyhoo … enjoy what’s inside. Continue reading “NYC Trip Pictures!”
