CSI : Miami

CSI is another show that we were lazy and didn’t turn off one night, and got sucked into. But it is just that, alluring. With Jerry Bruckheimer’s name all over it, this show always keeps you guessing and has enough turns to keep you satisfied to the end.

The season opener started with a bang, with one of the main members of the CSI team, “Speed” getting shot and dying.

The one thing that I don’t like about these dramas is that …

The Girl Next Door (2004)

I was hoping for a teen angst movie about a changing world of sex and drinking, instead I got a confusing movie that was trying to be deep, and funny, and to have a believable plot. The movie starts out with Matt, the main character, falling in love with Elisha Cuthbert who just moved in next door. But then he finds out she used to be a pornstar,
starts to hate her, treats her badly

My wife can’t multi-task in the kitchen

She asked, "What do you want for dinner? Hot Dogs or Breakfast?"
Of course I answered "Breakfast!"

Well, during her crazy process (see below) of twirling and spinning she dropped the eggs all over the floor. "Those egg whites are the best to clean up, just second to dog vomit but more slippery" she said. Oh how very, very true.

To me, breakfast means pancakes. But to Sarah, it means there has to be a meat and eggs with it too. Plus, she won’t

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)

I was glad that I at least tried this movie, but it did make me contemplate whether the movies that I found so hilarious when I was in high school like Happy Gilmore and Tommy Boy were really that funny, or if they were a period in my life.

I hardly laughed at this movie, and this the fact that Woody Allen had something to do with it, maybe that is why the over the top crying …

Looney Tunes Back in Action (2004)

As I have gotten older, I have developed a fondness for the old looney tunes cartoons. This movie, is nothing like that. But it is crazy to watch. With tributes to old movies, tongue in cheek humor and a seamless blend of live action, 3-d animation, and 2-d animation, this was a visually cool movie. It was kind of a fun one too. Looking for something fun to do and wanting Daffy to finally get

Steve McNiven and Warren Ellis on Ultimate Universe

I read the other day that one of my new favorite artists, Steve McNiven, would be teaming up with a Warren Ellis and getting to play in the Marvel Ultimate Universe with a book entitled "Ultimate Nightmare".

(Steve McNiven started out about 4 years ago at the promising Crossgen Comics which recently has gone into bankruptcy.)

Also, I continue to look forward to November and the Mid Ohio-Con to see if I can get a sketch from Adam Hughes, famous cheesecake pinups cover artist of books like Wonder Woman and Tomb

Indianapolis Fever Basketball Game

Sarah emailed me about 2:00 at work on Friday to see if I wanted to go to a Fever game with the Johnson’s from School. I like Paul and hanging out with their family in general, plus I thought it would be a cool new experience. Plus, they had free tickets which is always the big factor, so I figured why not?

It was so awesome to go inside of the Conseco field house, it was so huge in there. And although it was
