Chiefs fans rejoice! After the Chiefs embarrassing loss to the Charger’s yesterday, the first casualty of this atrocious season is the resignation of King Carl who is now in his 19th year of a 3 year plan. The resignation is effective immediately after the season and it’s about fucking time. Now we need Herm Edwards and his horrible playcalling and even worse clock management to tender his resignation.
While I’m on sports, a very fond farewell to the greatest pitcher I’ve ever seen. Greg Maddux retired a couple weeks back after an incredible career. He was by far my favorite pitcher to watch. I just wish I had gotten to see him pitch live. There was nothing better than being a Braves fan during the heyday of the big three of Smoltz, Glavine and Maddux. It’s amazing, and a little depressing, that we only got one championship during that time. Damn you Eric Gregg! Oh, I remember and will never forget how he gave Florida that series. Anyway, goodbye bulldog. Thanks for the memories. And with that, I’m out.
Ok, I’m a little late on the Flight of the Conchords bandwagon but if it’s alright, I’d like to get in on the fun. I started catching replays of their show on HBO and I can’t get enough of them. It’s just inspired, brilliant stuff…and mutha’uckin’ hilarious. The first season DVD will soon be mine, and thanks to Napster I now am the proud owner of the most recent CD and “The Distant Future” CD. Loving it…a lot. MP3 time and K-Ci & Jojo have been bumped for the awesomeness of FotC.

That is all. Wait, no, go check Flight of the Conchords out…now.
Watched a couple movies, only worth mentioning one really so I’ll start it with. Unless you’re completely dense…or blind. The movie is Secondhand Lions.
A nice little family film about a shy boy, his crappy mother, and his 2 eccentric uncles. Pretty basic story. Crappy mom hears the aforementioned Uncles are rich and have millions of dollars hidden somewhere on their land. Sends shy boy to live with them while she’s at “court reporting school”, which is apparently code for whoring it up in Vegas with an abusive asshole.
Of course she only sends the boy there to try and find out where the money is hidden. Blabla, eccentric Uncles warm to the boy, and vice versa. Mom returns…blabla, touching ending with the Uncles. Not a movie I’d buy, but I did enjoy it. Kids would love it as it has a bedtime story feel to it, with Sheiks, and princesses, and big unbelievable adventures, and a love story intertwined throughout. Worth a look see if you have kids.

The second movie I watched was the craptacular Godsend. I was just expecting more of a supernatural thriller. Horrible dialog, unnatural reactions to things going on around them, just not a very well made movie. Greg Kinnear is so much better than this crap. Suggestion…pass.
