- So I watched Battle: Los Angeles this week. I don't know what I was expecting (I take that back, I was expecting a piling heap of garbage), but I didn't think it was that bad. It was a classic behind enemy lines plot line (not a Behind Enemy Lines plot line) and if it had been set in WWII or Vietnam, it would probably be better received. Maybe people are alien-invasioned out.
- Bought a box of Fruit Pastilles today. Yummy! I balanced it with some chicken and peppers stir fry, so don't scream at me about my food choice.
- Watched Georgia Tech beat North Carolina in football today. They won to go to 4-0 for the first time since the National Championship season but this team isn't that good. They could very well be 7-0 when they go down to Miami. That will be a tough game, then they have Clemson and Virginia Tech at home. I'd be interested to see if the undersized offensive line and complex blocking schemes will be able to create holes against those 2 teams. Unfortunately, they might have trouble stopping both those offenses. After watching Clemson today, no idea how Tech will be able to hold them under 40 points.
- Also watched the New York Cosmos documentary. Good to see my Dad playing in some of the highlights. Not so good to see him get scored on by Giorgio Chinaglia.
- Watched the weigh-ins for UFC135. Why the hell do they make the guys strip on stage. Of course, they have to get down to their shorts, but damn why not do it backstage?
- Video today brought to you from the The Great White Norge. Norway's newest supergroup, The Megaphonic Thrift playing a live version of "Talks Like A Weed King". You can almost hear all their influences splattered throughout their music: Sonic Youth, Guided by Voices, Hüsker Dü, Superchunk, etc you can add your own. I can't hate on them, because they make great songs.
