Dan dropped a Rock Star on the ground in the convenience store. If it exploded, I’d have something exciting to share. But it didn’t.
Battery is low. We’re halfway through Oregon and on our way to a Best Western in Crescent City.
We changed the voice on the GPS to the British English female. Mad sexier, digital digital get down.
Eating in some mall near Portland. Hopefully the novelty of this being live doesn’t wear off too quickly because it’s 300 miles on the 5
P.S. I’m just practicing calling I-5 the five to get used to that sort of talk. I’ll blend in like a chameleon. Naire.
We’re in Oregon now. The plan is to take the 5 today to northern california. Tomorrow we’ll take the 101 to San Francisco.
Live blog. Testing, testing. Seattle to California, 160 characters at a time. Uncensored and unedited until I get to a wireless spot
“He outscored Georgetown 25-22 in the final 14:24.” Stephen Curry is assassinating brackets everywhere. The tournament was a lot more fun to watch when UW was in it—I guess I took it for granted. Especially the whole notion of having … Continue reading
First look at Snake Eyes. Everyone’s favorite E-7, played by Darth Maul.
Philippines Three
I kind of dropped the ball back when I said I’d post 100 pictures from the Philippines trip, ten at a time. I’m going to try and finish that off within the next week.
The Bank Job
A little tradition for the past few years has been to do dinner and a movie on Fridays when possible. You might jump to conclusions and think that “when possible” means “when I can get a date“, but it actually … Continue reading
Shaq dives into the front row. Some guy recorded it on his digital camera like one row behind the action. You could say it’s pretty good Shaq Fu-tage (Wocka wocka wocka!).
Food court musical. Fast forward to 2:15 if you don’t feel like watching the whole thing. I’m not the hugest fan of Improv Everywhere, but this one was good, real good.
City of Men
Reviews have a lot to do with expectations, and mine were high since City of God is probably my favorite foreign movie. City of Men doesn’t live up to those expectations. It’s sort of unfair to make the comparison because … Continue reading
Starcraft II Zerg unit sheet. Some highlights: “Overseers lose the slime and creep abilities of the Overlord, but gain a larger sight radius and give the player the ability to see cloaked and burrowed enemies.” I assume this means the … Continue reading
10,000 B.C.
12,000 years in the making. For whatever reason, I had pretty high hopes. Just about everything else is just too ridiculous to overlook. They mixed the story from Apocalypto with the bad guy from Stargate (and it also had a … Continue reading
Photograph from Tropic Thunder, Ben Stiller’s new movie. Robert Downey Jr. is in it (look closely, that’s him in the middle). At first I thought “backlash”, but in the movie he plays an Oscar-winning actor that wins a part in … Continue reading
Kobe Bryant montage. It’s a little old, so there’s nothing from this season. After getting so used to YouTube, you can sort of forget that video can look good on the computer. It’s always good when these fan-made sports videos … Continue reading
Article about a guy that ran 50 marathons in 50 days, each in a different state.
Saw this on the news this morning. Here’s a video of Knut the polar bear. There are tons of tribute videos to the guy. Here’s a wikipedia entry, and a German Vanity Fair cover (Which reads, “I am Knut; an … Continue reading
Birdman is back! He is best known for his performance in the NBA’s dunk contest in 2005 when he needed eight tries to finish his first dunk. Here’s Bill Simmons recap of that All-Star Weekend: Looking back, I think the … Continue reading
Top 10 reasons Raptors fans hate Vince Carter.
I’m guessing these aren’t in those dream comprehension books
My iPod Nano broke this week. Kind of bummed out, but it had a good run. It seemed out of nowhere, I didn’t handle it any differently. I took it out to change a song and I was greeted with … Continue reading
America’s Best Dance Crew is kind of hot right now, but it’s best viewed in clips. Why watch people on roller skates if you can just skip them? West coast folks, MTV puts the clips of the current week’s episode … Continue reading
There Will Be Blood
I was planning on saying something like, “I can definitely see why Daniel Day-Lewis won best actor, it’s easily the best performance of the last five years.” The problem is that I looked it up and it’s been four years … Continue reading
