Watching Firewall, and man, I couldn't be more bored

February 23, 2008 1 comment

Tonight, the Wife and I sat down to watch Firewall on DVD this evening (the various HBOs were showing both Major Payne and Star Wars Episode III, each for the 375,034th time). I wish I could find that clip from the Family Guy where Harrison Ford’s character keeps running up to people on the street and asking, “Where is my family??” Because that’s a good synopsis of this movie thus far.

Sorry for the long drought in posts, but with a company meeting last week and a trip to Vegas for yet another tradeshow this week, I’ve been slammed. Luckily, I had a few minutes on the flight home to jot down a few thoughts about the Vegas trip.

Boy, even though I went into Super Sunday with a spring in my step and a gleam in my eye, I ended the night limping to bed like a boxer with two closed eyes.  Sure, you look at the paper this a.m., and it doesn’t look that bad.  UNC beat Florida State on the road, and the Patriots lost a close one (which technically shouldn’t matter because I’ve forsworn all allegiance to NFL teams).

What else to watch for on Super Sunday…

February 2, 2008 1 comment

Tomorrow, me and about 100 million of my best friends will all sit down to watch Super Bowl XLII. This Super Bowl isn’t a large, not even an XL. It’s two past XL. If this Super Bowl were a pair of pants, they’d fit Louie Anderson.
