The Ottawa Rabbit Hole

Wow...that last blog entry was so well received I feel I have no choice but to do a follow up. It hit the web on such high quality blogs as The Uhrblog and Train's Station. I highly recommend you read what these guys have to say. You will lead a better life for it.

Other than that I have even less to say than last time, so here is some rambling about pop culture. If all goes according to plan, this entry will be so inane nobody will care when it disappears again.

I cannot wait to see The Love Guru tank which by all accounts it should do. I've liked Mike Myers in the past, but sometimes he just comes across as a smarmy bastard and he deserves to be knocked down a peg. One review I read likened it to Meet the Spartans, an abysmal 45 minutes of my life (I fastforwarded through a lot of it since jokes last about 5 minutes) I'll never get back and deserves the 2% rating it got.

Whereas the Love Guru ads make it look as awful as it probably is, I'm pleasantly surprised by some clips from Get Smart. I think it's an awful idea but it is starting to grow on me. Plus I can't stand to see Steve Carrell suffer another Evan Almighty style bomb.

To complete my trifecta of movie talk, I recently saw The Happening. All I can about this one is that it should have been called The Crappening. (I'm willing to sell that joke to SNL Weekend Update for $5000 by the way). M. Night Shamaylan's stock has officially fallen lower than that of Galantas Gold Corporation (a fine little Irish Gold mining company you should all pick up).

I'm heading to Belleville for Big Music Fest this weekend, and the forecast looks like some lovely rain is on the way! Even more exciting than that concert though, is the Friday night private engagement by Distillery, the loudest band in Ontario. If all goes according to plan, I won't hear a thing on Saturday. Here they are belting out a classic.

Good night internet. Have a great weekend.
