Wow, has it been two weeks already?! Well, time to play a little catch-up.
Last Sunday I saw “Hot Tub Time Machine.” That movie, simply put, is hilarious. If you like stupid guy humor, you’d probably find it rather amusing…if not, I’d pass. I enjoyed the small part Chevy Chase played, though I hate to admit he’s lost his touch over the years. Maybe it’s time for another ‘Vacation’ reunion. I absolutely do not mean the Cousin Eddie crap either. I give “Hot Tub Time Machine” 3.5 stars.
The orthodontist has now put me on two weeks per aligner rather than three, and also is giving me two sets with each visit. At this rate I will be finished with my regular aligners by early September…I began in late January. After this, I believe the refinement period begins.
This past Friday, my friend and I went to see the Spurs take on the Orlando Magic. It was a great game with many ridiculous calls. Early on Timmy had three fouls and sat the majority of the first half, while the fans chanted, “refs you suck!”…I admit I joined in a bit. With just a couple of minutes left in the game, Dwight Howard (one of my fav non-Spurs players) fouled out. This pretty much sealed the game since Marcin Gortat is the closest thing Orlando has to offer when it comes to an inside presence. Simply put, he can’t do squat about whatever Timmy wants to do in the paint. Big win for Spurs.
After the game we stayed for some of the OVERTIME concert featuring Rotel and the Hot Tomatoes. Yes, you read that right. No, I was not ready for what they had to offer. Was it entertaining? Oh yes. Was it really strange and just a freakin’ tad over the top? You bet. It certainly was something else.
On Saturday night I checked out the new D-Box seats at the Santikos Silverado 16. Wow. I really believe I could watch nearly anything while sitting in those seats and be thoroughly entertained. I saw “Clash of the Titans” in 3D…and D-Box of course. I read many reviews that said the 3D version was no good and actually ruined the movie. What? I didn’t see anything wrong with the 3D quality…in fact it’s on “Avatar’s” level as far as I’m concerned. The D-Box seating pushed it over the top. I can’t wait for a movie with car chases and racing to arrive at Silverado 16 in D-Box. My only complaint regarding the 3D version of “Clash of the Titans” is the bulky XpanD glasses. I give it 3.5 stars.
I also finally made it to The County Line to try their Chicken Fried Steak. Not bad…not Wade’s either, but not bad. I really need to get some of the crew together to head to Throwdown Thursday put on by KTFM. Muchos especiales de bebidas.
