Spent the afternoon shopping when I came across a pair of sunglasses I couldn’t resist. The Oliver Peoples Strummer is a classic aviator design crafted with lightweight, hypo-allergenic titanium.
Filled with joy and a tinge of sadness over the loss of my favorite Blinde shades I began searching for the discontinued Lickety Lips in black. Miraculously I found a pair on eBay. All is right in the world.
I’ve begun watching reruns of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations on Netflix and realized I have a deep respect and fondness for cynical New Yorkers. From my This explains my love for the main character in Californication, Hank Moody.
About Anthony Bourdain
Bourdain gained immediate popularity from his 2000 New York Times bestselling book Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly. The book is a witty and rambunctious exposé of the hidden and darker side of the culinary world, and is a memoir of Bourdain’s professional life as well.
Bourdain subsequently wrote two more New York Times bestselling nonfiction books: A Cook’s Tour (2001), an exotic account of his food and travel exploits across the world, written in conjunction with his first television series; and The Nasty Bits (2006), another collection of exotic, provocative, and humorous anecdotes and essays mainly centered around food. — Wikipedia
After two+ years of marathon dating I’ve met someone that makes the prospect of monogamy attractive. With a strange vibe, quick wit and beautiful smile Roxy has made an honest man out of me.
The replacement power supply I ordered online was delivered today and after ten minutes of surgery my XBOX LIVES! Who would have thought a power surge almost claimed a good portion of my twenties. Jeez that sounds pathetic. I need to get a new hobby that sounds cooler. Perhaps demolition derby driver or professional assassin.
Today some asshole at work thought it would be cute to steal my Naked Juice from the refrigerator. What a dick move. Normally I would ignore this sort of rude behavior but I was hungry and disillusioned by my coworkers lack of decency. Frustrated, I decided to post a note. I doubt this will bring my Naked juice back but at least it might deter him or her from doing it again. Maybe if I had offered a reward or added a picture of a cute puppy I might have gotten some leads.
I’m not a huge fan of Jim Carrey’s recent work, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind being the exception. His last few films seem the same to me. So much so, I’m surprised someone hasn’t done a Jim Carrey movie mash-up on YouTube. Regardless, Yes Man is funny, cute and totally endearing. If you haven’t seen it definitely check it out.
Bonus: Munchausen By Proxy, Zooey Deschanel’s band, is on the soundtrack and they kind of rock.
How do I write about a movie I forgot as soon as the credits rolled? Seriously, nothing about this film is memorable. At least Michael Bay’s adaptation of Transformers was fraught with unintentional humor. I know many of my friends made fun of me but I had high hopes, even after the trailer. What was I thinking?
Out doing season 2 was going to be tough but if the first few episodes were any indication of the quality they just might pull it off. Not a big fan of Jimmy Smitts I have to admit he is putting on a clinic,making the rest of the cast look like amatuers.
I often times wonder if my friends have ever watched good sci-fi movies. I checked out Moon based a friends recommendation and found it slightly above average. Sam Rockwell does a great job but the plot is simple and told with the pace of a snail. I understand the directors intention but if I feel your pace is torturous you’ve failed in crafting a solid film.
As a side note, I am sure I would have enjoyed this movie more a lot more had they replaced Sam Rockwell with ROCKWELL.
