dolphins_logI prepared to escape to the Seattle side right after work. Saturday I only have a four hour shift, so rather than backtracking home and then going to Seattle [an additional 36 miles with gas prices today] I chose to drive an additional 15 miles and bug miko2 for a few hours.
He showed me a few things I didn't know about Second Life. I'm still such a noob. miko2 has an exercise regimen, so I joined him on his walk. It's a pretty good hike with a large hill and a very nice park. We took about 45 minutes.
He showed me more of his online fun with City of Heroes and a little bit with his music broadcasting machine. COOL!
Rather than take two cars I drove him to Ballard where wii were gathering prior to the movie. He brought a CD that I want to get. He told me he would e-mail me the name because I would likely forget what it was. [and guess what?] It's an artist who has made many Anime soundtracks but this album is independent of Anime and is in English.
When we arrived attypographer and miertam 's it turned out wii were the last ones there. They were all bowling on their new Wii. After they finished the game we all hiked out about 10 blocks to the Chinese restaurant. We were the only ones there it seemed, but we were a large group of 9. typographer and miertam were very generous. The food was very good!
geojlc elected not to see the movie. she isn't a movie go'er much. I understand that. My mother and sister are like that, and indeed, the movie was not geojlc safe.
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Chrystal Skulls was a great romp. Of the 4 Indi films I would rate it the third best. For an excellent review from boxofficemojo.com {Click Here}. I think this review is almost spot on except for his complaint that "The pursuit of knowledge equals death in the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, a theme which does not belong in a family movie." Nonono. The pursuit of knowledge can be an action adventure!!! Death is merely a byproduct, and the good guys win.
Yes, the movie was great fun even with its LARGE plot holes and LARGE suspension [let's call it complete disregard] of belief. There were a few of us who didn't like it. They shall remain nameless [zorkfox ]. But he had some good reasons. They just weren't enough for me to not have fun.
In truth, this is a movie to see with a large group of friends, not by yourself. Make it a party.
Afterward we all returned to the Ballard home base and played some more Wii.miko2 created a Mii that was all goth girl and another that was supposed to be a terrorist. bluesmancd created...?? Himself? I was getting tired.
I got home last night at 12:30. All in all, a good Saturday.
