Long Time No Talk

Well, it has been a while since I last did a post. I have been busy the last couple of months. Let's see what happened.

1. Was sick for about a month
2. Got better then was puke sick for a couple of days.
3. Recovered just in time for my good buddy George's wedding in Calgary. I wish I could have spent more time in Calgary hanging out with George and Goggles (and their wives of course). I got to go go-carting for the first time ever. It was really fun. I recommend it.
4. Finally went golfing.
5. Did some gaming.
6. Won the Legion Bocce League title again. Raw Stuage League champs 4 out the the past 7 years.
7. Went fishing a few times.
8. Fighting a really sore neck/pinched nerve for over a week now. What the hell is up with that!

Raw Stuage will attempt to win the Legion League Playoff title today as well. We have won the playoff title 3 years but never in the same year as the League championship. We would like to be a double winner this year for the first time. Eye of the Tiger baby!!

I was supposed to golf today in my first Match Play League game but alas it was pouring rain. This is the main reason I have a few minutes to do a new post.

Question: How come when you are on the lake in a boat everyone waves at each other, yet when you are in car you only wave if you know the other person? Perhaps it is because you are having fun on the lake and when you are driving it usually isn't for fun.

I saw a few movies since I last posted.
A. Star Trek. Great movie. I am not 100% opposed to time travel but it can really screw things up. In this case I think it fit with what they were trying to do, and that is reboot the franchise.
B. Wolverine. Ahhhh, not bad, not good. It could have been better. I sometimes think a good movie needs a good villain. This one had a decent villain but not great. Character development was poor and generally I like the character development driven movies. Ala, The Watchmen. Good flick.
C. Terminator. I went in thinking the story would be weak with lots of action. That is what I got so overall I thought it was good. It was what I expected. The Terminator movies never had a great story. Time travel anyone? Just don't think about it too much and you will be ok.

Upcoming movies.
1. Transformers. I think it will be just like the first one but with more T&A from Megan Fox. The first Transformers movie was ok. Too bad it wasn't about Transformers. They should have called it People with some Transformers in it. I am not a huge fan of Shia LeBeouf either. He is ok but not great.
2. GI Joe. Well, what can I say about this one. I have already made some comments months ago. I think it will be a decent action flick that should be called something other than GI Joe. Accelerator suits WTF! Like the Transformers my beloved childhood memories will be crushed again.
3. Harry Potter. I still haven't read the books and as such I don't think I have the same appreciation for the movie compared to someone who has. These movies are all the same to me. I will go see it but in the end I won't remember a damn thing about it. I will have to read the books someday.

Perhaps next post I will do a toy review on my new Sideshow Cobra Commander and Snake Eyes figures. Well, that is all for now. I gotta get ready for bocce.
