Lately

Here's what's going on lately:



Why am I the only person who thinks this movie was awesome? As a kid, I always thought this was a better film than Top Gun, and for several reasons:
- No creepy (and pointless) beach volleyball scene, forcing one to confront questions only Stewie Griffin can answer.
- Chappy came home. Goose didn't. Who's would you rather be going into combat with?
- Iron Eagle actually had an antagonist (although they conveniently never say what country said antagonist is from). Top Gun basically had Tom Cruise against Val Kilmer's shark-like snapping teeth (has anyone figured out what that was about?)
- Sound track is way better. Everything you could want in 80's rock.

So, why does no one like this but me?

Next: Only two more weeks of LOTUS remain. I'm really looking forward to weekends off. Just bought myself a set of golf clubs, and played my first round last Friday. WAY more fun than hanging around with drunks in a bar. I've already been approached by other bands, but I'm just not interested. Being home with Gindo or out with her or out with friends is simply more appealing than Brick House.

Next: Got keys for the new job. The guy before me didn't get much end-of-year stuff done, so I've actually got quite a bit to do this summer. Just not quite motivated enough to start working yet. What is it, June 23? Yeah, probably not 'til, oh, say, July 6th. That feels about right.

Word. Is it as fast as an F-16? Or, for the Brian Griffins of the world, is it "Faster Than The Speed of Love?"
