2004 September | Flecks of... Gray?

If you want to read about Saff & Grenz instead.

I’m pretty sure that I’m a bonehead

22 09 2004

Today I realized that I’m much stupider than i think I am. First, I cut myself and actually drew a bit of blood with a TABLE KNIFE while cutting a bun. Not a good sign.

Then, we were talking about how Montreal is an island and I was convinced that it was a floating island because islands flot – you know, like Hawaii. Only to have it revealed to me that it was most certainly connected by land to the earth’s core as is Hawaii. Stupid “Life of Pi” screwed me all up in all kinds of ways – one of them being that I actually believed that islands could float.

Lastly, I was fiddling around with my television (which happens to be perilously placed on top of my speaker) trying to get the antenna cable to come in right and I tipped the whole thing over!! That really came down with a hard bang – fortunately the tv was not damaged in the fall – yeah JVC!

Here’s hoping tomorrow’s a smarter day

Movies I've watched recently:

Real Steel (2011) 7/10

YVR > SJC - kind of a zany concept but it works relatively well, not a great boxing movie but not too bad.

This movie came well recommended to me and it was a good, strange and profanity laced comedy. The main character was profound, confusing and yet remarkably consistent and believable. Some good lines in there and a nice change of pace from an action movie loaded with action to this one which seems to try to avoid it at every turn.

Moneyball (2011) 9/10

When a movie with a plot as benign as MLB drafting and trading using statistics instead of scouting intuition is this entertaining, you know they did something right. Great story that had both Heidi and I riveted to a sport that we really know and care very little about.

Warrior (2011) 8/10

MSP > YVR - Solid acting in this action-drama, decent story, pretty good fight scenes and sympathetic characters. All in all, nicely done.

Breaking the Press (2010) 4/10

Ugh, this Christian movie was not worth watching. While it followed the plot of the Prodigal Son story closely, it seemed to lack all the great details that we had been learning about in the Prodigal God book study that we were going through. The acting was poor, most of the characters were poorly developed and the dialog was very local (to Texas) and didn't sound very natural to my Canadian ears.
