Hobo With a Shotgun Review...
Good, Gory, Bloody mindless fun.
The thing I really liked about the movie. Was it wasn't trying to be serious and it was still well done. This is not a Revek movie as this was at least entertaining and hilarious to watch.
Oh and it's Canadian made too! And Rotten Tomatoes has it at 100% (still)
Some very notable quotes:
[Getting manhandled by giant Fallout3esque robot dudes]
"Get your hands off me, you're crushing my cigarettes"
Those who played the game and watch the movie will understand the fallout 3 reference
Abby: "you can't save the world with a shotgun"
Hobo: "it's all I know"
[hobo talking to a bunch of babies in the hospital]
I used to be like you. A long time ago. All brand new and perfect. No mistakes, no regrets. People look at you and think of how wonderful your future will be. They want you to be something special, like a doctor, or a lawyer. I hate to tell you this, but if you grow up here, you're more likely to wind up selling your bodies on the streets, or shooting dope from dirty needles in a bus stop. And if you're successful, you'll make money selling junk to crackheads. And don't think twice about killing someone's wife, because you won't even know it's wrong in the first place. Maybe... you'll end up like me. A hobo with a shotgun.
Kinect For the Blind
I agree pretty damn cool. Though they should probably reduce the size slightly, not that blind person could see what they look like. Maybe they would care.
Oh I am going to hell for that one

Two things to lead into this story:
- Rolly received Lego Universe for Christmas
- Rolly is going to a day camp for March Break
So Rolly's Day Camp starts one hour later than school but we as a family still get up at the same time. Yesterday Rolly had a simple solution to fill in the hour. "Can I play Lego Universe?" Sure you can, go ahead.
"Daddy I wrote a story for you"
And here it is
Last night Rolly called me upstairs as he was going to bed. With lettering assistance from Guba he had written me a story.
He enjoyed reading it to me and afterward signed it for me. That part I cropped off.
This morning I discovered that it was a musical as he sang it to me at full volume while getting dressed.
Now this is music
Heard this for the first time last night. Before any of you even try: Yes I know it is The Animals - House of the Rising Sun! Actually maybe even some of you didn't even know that. The only one that is excused from this is swag (but some how I have a feeling he may know) because of his age.
Adventures of Aku
Episode: Getting pwned in improv class.
I joined an improv club back in January just to try something different. At it is a lot of fun. We meet a few times a month either for brunch, lunch or just at someone's place. There are lot of attractive women in the club and I am one of 4 guys (that I know of) and I think the other 2 of the 3 other guys appear to be gay so pretty good ratio in my books.
SO This past Saturday we met at Broadway's on Fisher for brunch. The "caller" picked me and one of the more attractive women in the group (Improv Girl 1 IG1) and gave us this scenario: "First Time Speed Dating" and I am think man this is going to be fun.
ME: Hello I am Aku how are you?
IG1: Hello Aku I am IG1 and I am doing great.
some normal chit chat goes like where you from etc.
some laughs happened but this was the best one:
ME: So, IG1, Do you taste as good as you look?
IG1: Wow! that was bold, would you like to find out?
ME: Absolutely, even after our improv session.
IG1: Ok, I would be happy to oblige. But you have to answer one question.
Me: What's that?
IG1: Is your d*ck as big as your ego?
Everyone roared laughing (including me).
And now I am think I really like this girl she is like me only female and sexier.
So after the session, I asked her if she wanted to hang out, outside of the improv thing. She said she would like that and that if I am really lucky I will find out how good she tastes. We exchanged numbers.

ET: The Sequel...
At first I thought this was for real.
Like I said some people have way too much time on their hands...
Though I have to admit it is very well done and creative.
