As you may know, there was a time when I watched about 10-12 movies a week. That time was my idle 20s.
Last few days though, I got pretty close to that kind of saturation. Here is what I watched:
#1)Iron Man. I never would have thought that Robert Downey Jr. could have carried this off as [...]

Movie Viewing, Lately.
12-Oct-08The good news is that G hit a very important milestone this weekend. That bad news is that he hit said milestone with his face. G somehow climbed out the crib on Saturday.
I found him sitting on the floor next to it. Extremely freaked out.
Notes from the Home Buying Front
17-Aug-08I could probably do a blog exclusively about nothing but homes that the boy, the wife and I go to look at. There is just not enough time to wade thru all the material. And believe me there is alot of it.
That said, looking at homes, staged to buy, is alot like working for a [...]

I made the 66 mile trip in 3hr 28 minutes. Averaged about 19mph. Thats alot faster then my best [...]
Last week, after my race, I started writing a report. It included how I went off the front a few times, recovered ok. Then ended up placing not so well overall. and I manage to drive heave when I crossed the line. (Cross that off my life list.) Blah [...]
Some of you come to me since I compared Tom Boonen to Dr. Rockzo and have been all:
“Dude, harsh! TB just got dis invited from the Tour.”
I want to address that now. But first a long digression:
One of the great ideas my dad ever had was making my brothers and I work through [...]
He laughs at mom betraying his trust like it just doesn’t matter.
Focusing at the Giro
14-May-08
David Millar’s bad luck and subsequent response at the Giro today reminded of the old skateboarding phenomenon of focusingskateboard decks(ie snapping them out of frustration with an elusive trick).
I’m only surprised he didn’t crush his frame like an empty beer can instead of merely tossing it over a guard rail. He’s english though. Those people know restraint.
