De-facto youth hostel

For the next couple of months,my home is going to be a de-facto youth hostel as my brother, his girlfriend and an unnamed friend of theirs camp at our place while looking to settle in Cowtown . I'm fairly certain that this 3rd dude has a name, I think I just don't happen to know it.....now. These things happen when my brother is involved.
So, yes life should be full of fun and adventure in the upcoming months.
I gots to go to the airport now to pick up the gang ...
Peace (and wish me luck)!

A bad call....

I sure hope Friday evening was not an indication of the weekend to come. I decided to check out the latest in the National Treasure movie series with utterly disastrous consequences. I'm sure I've had more mind numbingly boring experiences after spending 10 bucks but am hard pressed right now to think of any that would compare . Cage should just check himself into a geriatric home or acting school for a refresher or both. And , what's Mirren doing in this bad excuse for a movie anyway? There have got to be better ways to make money for an Oscar winner. Also this Turtletaub dude should just quit making movies. I mean seriously with a name like Turtletaub whats he doing making movies anyway.

For those of you looking for an objective review of the movie Nation ahem Treasure , its a totally dumbed down excuse for a treasure hunt adventure where the clues are so ridiculously far fetched even a 5 yr old would have a hard time believing them , the plot so thinly developed that I suspect the writers did it pro-bono and don't even get me started on the "acting"....

The reason I embarked on this adventure without even checking reviews ( yes, should've known better) was because of National Treasure (2004) which I watched on a transatlantic flight and thought at that time was an entertaining movie.On hindsight it was probably the over indulgence of the liquid nourishment of the non non-alcoholic kind and the fact that I had run out of all reading material including the flight safety instructions on a 9 hr flight .

So, if I ever start planning to watch another movie without checking reviews again, remind me to kick myself .

Peace and happy weekending!

Can we go back to 2007?

Its silly to start a new year in winter. Logically a new year should be a celebration of new beginnings with fresh leaves, long days filled with bright sunshine and cheerful people not naked depressing trees, short dark days and cold ridden depressed souls bundled in a gazellion layers .Those crazy Roman emperors had no business messing with the wonderfully appropriate spring start of March 1st and declaring the cold sniffly winter start of January 1st as the New Year.

And furthermore , 2008 has 366 days with 52 weekends and I get ONLY 15 days of vacation ...People do the math ,this still leaves 236 days of work.Ah crap! Can we go back to 2007?

Yeah, yeah Happy New Year!

Unbind your mind

Resolved not to make resolutions .


Unbind your mind
There is no time
To lick your stamps
And paste them in

Peace!!
