    Society & Culture Things that Make You Feel Old

    Went to one in summer with kids. Was fun. Turned the back of the SUV into a bed and had a bunch of snacks. Was the new Minions movie followed by Twisters. Funnily enough, we barely got though the first scene of Twisters when a big windstorm swept through and knocked out the generator. They...

    That's just a pic from a news article but they were filming in downtown Vancouver last year. Saw a bit of it around town.

    It was cool seeing downtown transformed for production last summer.

    American Werewolf in London. I'd never seen this John Landis classic and it was a good watch on a rainy night in. Creepy enough with a little humor spread throughout. Only a little over 1.5 hours. The practical effects on the transformation were pretty amazing. Can see why it won an Academy...

    I remember it looking like that here a couple of years ago. No snow yet this season though. Been relatively mild. Foggy past couple of days though.

    North Am Justin Trudeau Retires, Undefeated.

    Kind of. He was never going to make it that far. He knew once parliament resumed he was getting a non-confidence vote.

    North Am Justin Trudeau Retires, Undefeated.

    Was going to say the same! Even diehard Canadian lefties jumped ship a long time ago. The Conservative Party only recently became relevant here in British Columbia but I still don't know anybody singing Trudeau's praises.

    North Am Justin Trudeau Retires, Undefeated.

    Carney looks like a good replacement for the Liberals but they have a lot of ground to make up.

    I watched two movies yesterday. The Devil's Bath. Wow. One of the darker movies I've ever seen. To put it mildly, a woman has some trouble adapting to day-to-day life in 1700s Austria. Was just grim with a few scenes that were very difficult to watch. The acting, directing, and overall...

    She needs me to cover a few days when she goes to Vegas in February. She’ll give me some compliment a few days before and then remind me. A few weeks of peace will be nice!

    Things that sh*t me the seventeenth

    Oh, I'm good. Alright. I'll rant about it. Haha. We have a Monday to Monday schedule. She's off with her boyfriend a few hours away. Doesn't want to leave early to pick them up so assumed I'd be good having them until 12pm or so. I'm going to work and told her I'll drop them at her place...

    I watched an English sitcom over the past couple of days too. Sick of it with Karl Pilkington. Good little show. Been a bit down this week and his musings on daily life cheered me up.

    Sideways is good. Speaking of Giamatti, I'll recommend The Holdovers. Seems to fit the bill. Is a feelgood movie, he's grumpy in it and it's set at Christmas.

    Kids school did their Christmas concert this morning. My eldest was a cow for the "eight maids a-milking" part of 12 Days of Christmas. So proud :D

    My old car had a CD player but now I don't own one. Got about 200 of the things but don't really just want to dump them at a second hand store. I still listen to radio or podcasts in the car but at home it's Alexa or vinyl.

    Yep. In fact, I think only the NY Jets have a longer streak without playoffs in the four major North American sports.

    I enjoyed it. Watched it last night and it was perfect for winding down on a Sunday night. Tight little action/thriller. I like Bateman and Egerton usually and thought they played off each other well.

    Annual teddy bear toss game on Saturday (Vancouver Giants). Was fun. Also just nice to see players, refs, ice crews etc stop play for 15 minutes and pick up toys for charity.

    Annoyed I got offered work tickets to see Avs tonight but can't make it. Going on 28th to see the Kraken in town though so looking forward to that. Went to see Giants on Saturday. Was an average game but first time seeing the teddy bear toss and that was fun.

    Got my girlfriend a necklace for her birthday. I went to cut the little tag off and carelessly snipped through the chain. Took it back to store at lunchtime and they swapped it without any questions. I paid an extra $25 for the warranty this time.

    The veteran, Granlund, doing well too. Got him in my fantasy team and he's been great.

    He also overshadowed Miles Teller in every scene in Top Gun: Maverick. Will easily have a much bigger career.

    I thought it was Krasinski. Who is a couple of years older than me. That gives me hope but also makes me think "what the hell I am doing with my life" haha

    Watched a 1999 movie called Ravenous last night. Civil War era western/horror with two actors I really like - Robert Carlyle and Guy Pearce. It wasn't bad. I liked the setting and some of the concepts but the music score really took me out of it. It was kind of playful/comedic in parts...
