I hope everyone had a good Easter weekend. Easter supper with Amanda and her family went better than I thought, mainly because we talked things over on Saturday. So yeah, it wasn’t all that bad.
Some Random Thoughts
1. Duke lost this weekend, so if you are a Duke fan I would like to inform you that you are a loser! Loser, loser, loser, looooooossssseeerr! I mean, Maryland might not have made the NCAA tournament but they are dominating the NITs…
2. If you liked the movie Ju-On (the Japanese movie that inspired The Grudge) you have absolutely terrible taste in cinema. I am a huge fan of scary movies, but I need the killer to have some motivation for killing. Maybe he is a psychopath, maybe he is a cannibal, and maybe he is possessed by an evil spirit. Who knows? In Ju-On, two of the ghouls have absolutely no reason to haunt and kill their victims. So what if they were violently murdered? Why would that make them want to violently murder other people? It doesn’t make any sense!
3. Production companies need to stop turning old sitcoms into new movies. If Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson couldn’t save Starsky and Hutch, and Samuel L. could make a flop like Shaft, what chance do Sean William Scott and Johnny Knoxville to make the Dukes of Hazard successful? Well, with the very talented (snicker) Jessica Simpson involved I would say zero.
4. I “Heart” Huckabees was incredible. My new career aspiration is to become an existential detective.
5. The other day I was thinking about how ridiculous it would be to name yourself L.L. Cool J. I don’t dislike the guy, but c’mon…L.L. Cool J? No wonder he works out all the time…
