Hard Core Food Porn

Even I think this may be over the top. It's a 1/2lb burger with a fried egg and bacon and a Krispy Kreme bun. It's brought to us by the Food Networks most annoying personality (and there are a lot to choose from, but not you Alton) Paula Dean.

Here's the recipe for those wanting to play cardiac roulette.

HD DVR Review: 300

The great Sarah Silverman said of 300, "It's called 300 because on a scale of 1 to 10 in gayness, it's 300." It's a pretty gay movie -- lots of shirtless buff guys. Christ, even that sounded gay. But there are enough topless women in it to balance out to bi. Think of it as The Grapevine of Greek warrior movies.

For what this movie is, a comic book -- oops sorry -- graphic novel come to life, it's pretty good. Ignore the historical inaccuracies and enjoy it for what it is. The action sequences are great but occasionally long.

Visually, the movie is amazing. Only occasionally does it look overly CGIed. And this is really what the movie is all about -- visuals. Do not see this movie in SD. If you have to, go to someone else's house and watch it in HD and crank up the 5.1.

Movie Review: There Will Be Blood

I have to admit it. I had no interest in this movie until I saw the sketch on SNL. If you haven't seen the sketch, here it is:





And if your interested in the source material, here that is:



There are a lot of things to say about this movie. I just wish I could form coherent thoughts about them. It was beautifully photographed. There that's something, right. And I'm glad to see that Daniel Day Lewis has toned down his Bill The Butcher character.
But this picture left me with one very important question:

"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?????"

And why did they use the music from Lost? Seriously, I kept thinking the smokemonster was about to kill H.W.

In the final analysis this was a well crafted mess that, for the most part, kept me watching until the end. So I can't say it's bad. And I would, for the most part recommend it.

The Spring of Steve

Yeah, I know.  Spring is still almost 3 weeks away.  But with Winter League over, by my reconning, this is the first day of Spring.  Even though it's in the 40s today, everyone should take the dog out to the lake a throw a frisbee.
