108

Ah, the first game of the season and I'm back in my usual mediocre form! I'm really quite happy with my 108. I'd like to keep it closer to 100, but 108's not that bad for me at all. AND I only lost two balls! One of them was basically in plain site, so that was frustrating.

Besides the game, the weather was probably the best I can remember ever for a game of golf. Perfect temperature, little wind and bright!

Movie review: Everything is Illuminated

I've been waiting for this one for like forever! I've wanted to see it ever since I saw the trailer before it came out. I thought it'd be another Amelie! Then when it came out, I couldn't find anyone to go see it with (sniffle)! Then I waited and waited for it to come out on DVD. And even then, it was so hard to find. Can you imagine going to FutureShop, flipping through the almost alphabetical listing of movies just to find the Everthing is Illuminated placard marking the void where my movie used to be. But finally I found it. Sure, it's stupid to buy a $30 DVD before having seen it, but I had faith.

But alas, all that anticipation was difficult to live up to. Not that I didn't like the movie, but it just wasn't quite as amazing as I thought from the trailer. There are definitely two phases to the movie, beginning with the comical part, and ending with the more solemn dramatical part. I suppose it is about a Jewish guy traveling to the Ukraine to trace his Grandpa's previous life in WWII. So it's still a very good movie and definitely worth seeing. Not sure if it was worth $30 bucks though...

Everything is Illuminated 7/9

Good morning pizza down under

Mmmm! I heard those wacky Australians like egg on their pizzas. And since I'm such a big egg fan, I owed it to myself to give it a shot! Another winner!

Sure it sounds weird, but eggs and cheese have gone together since our forefathers came down from the trees and started cooking bird eggs into omelettes. I even put on some bacon to complete the breakfast theme. And zuchini, because I felt like it. Oh yeah, and liberal shakings of cayenne pepper.

Worthy!

Faithful Inventor

And what better than one named Personal DNA?

It of course has nothing to do with your DNA. So I should feel insulted, but it was fun. I liked how it has proportional analogue inputs.

Apparently, I am a Faithful Inventor.
