Coffee keeps me alive

I love my wife, books, video games, movies, friends and coffee. Either your with me or against me but at least come by my house, drink some coffee with me, and we can talk about it.

Day 2

Scrabble is the greatest board game ever invented. My wife and I have taken to 1 on 1 matches to prepare for couples events in the future. It's actually a really fun way to do it especially becaue we are both VERY competitive. Words/definitions have always been a really geeky love of mine and I cannot stand to read a word and not know what it means. This can present a problem if you read as many books as I do. Since I make linerboard and don't do anything philosphical at work I am probably gonna stick with writing about my books and movies, especially since nobody probably wants to hear about my crack addiction (World of Warcraft, aka World of War"crack"). I have seen four movies in the past three days and I would recommend three of them.
  • Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
  • The Island
  • The Benchwarmers
  • V for Vendetta

Hopefully you can guess which one comes in at #4(a slightly funny #4)think

Billy Madison + Duece Bigelow + Napoleon Dynamite = Benchwarmers

Good for a laugh just don't think to hard :). The other three though I don't know if we can be friends if you don't watch them. And last thing before I get back to work. I don't care if James Frey is a freaking liar, that bastard can freaking write a book. "A Million Little Pieces" is phenomenal so far and I'm only at page ~130 out of 430, you don't come across to many non chick books that can make you happy/sad/feel his pain like Frey.

I think maybe since this is a blog I should leave you with some words of wisdom each time just to keep you on your toes, today its going to be Brodie from "Mallrats"
