Watched the movie "Sinners", a period piece about vampires in the deep South in the 1920s. It got a lot of good reviews. I figured I'd love it since I love period pieces that cross genres. I figured wrong. Spoilers ahead, so you are warned.The first hour was pretty good, some pointless graphic sex scenes … Continue reading What the Boss Likes or not – the movie Sinners, spoilers ahead

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation- and here were are, 2020
here we are in the eve before starting 2020. When I was growing up, and we had all of that end times nonsense in the 70s, (oooh the Late Great Planet Earth by that twit Hal Lindsey) I was sure I was going to be the anti-christ in the year 2000 since I was sure … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation- and here were are, 2020
What the Boss Likes – update on the remodel, random things I’ve enjoyed
The kitchen is finished all but for the painting. Since this was nice fresh drywall, I had to give it two coats of sealer/primer and now am *finally* getting the color layer on, a lavender called “garden fairy” (I want a job naming colors). I’m doing a high gloss finish since it’s a kitchen and … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – update on the remodel, random things I’ve enjoyed
From the Bar – a few Belgian ales and a movie
I have now been on this planet for 50 years. I really wish I had been on some other planet during this time but alas technology has not cooperated. For my birthday, we went to have really good cheap french fries (cooked in beef fat) and expensive Belgian beers. This was an extra treat since … Continue reading From the Bar – a few Belgian ales and a movie
From the kitchen – some tasty entrees and a small rant about a movie
(warning: a few movie spoilers appear at the end for Iron Man 3 and The Winter Soldier. You have been warned) Having no good ideas for a big meal to make for the weekend (and little time to do so with a retail schedule), we decided to get the stuff to make some quick meals. … Continue reading From the kitchen – some tasty entrees and a small rant about a movie
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – A review of the Noah movie trailer. Oh my, the silliness and this is only a few minutes of an hours long movie.
Haven’t seen the movie yet probably won’t, because I have no desire to add to the box office hits for this stinker. But I thought I’d take a look at the trailer and the movie website. I do enjoy showing how ridiculous the flood myth is, and have done so multiple times on this blog. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – A review of the Noah movie trailer. Oh my, the silliness and this is only a few minutes of an hours long movie.
From the Kitchen, from the Bar – pork shoulder, ales and kibitzing about music, movies, etc
The weather has finally decided to be lovely and not the sauna it was a week and a half ago. So, it became time to cook since I could have the oven on for hours and not feel like I was committing hara-kiri by sweating. Since it was on sale ($1.49/pound) and we love it, … Continue reading From the Kitchen, from the Bar – pork shoulder, ales and kibitzing about music, movies, etc
From the Kitchen and bar plus a movie – Schnitzel with panko is like jaegers with kaiju… trust me on this one
The movie for this week is Sharknado! No, no, I can’t even joke about that. What a purely stupid movie (yes, we watched about 15 minutes of it). Ah, if someone would have told my teen-age self that there will be a channel called the Science Fiction Channel and that I would hate it with a … Continue reading From the Kitchen and bar plus a movie – Schnitzel with panko is like jaegers with kaiju… trust me on this one
What the Boss Likes – meal and a movie again
This weekend we had fajitas again (beef this time, just follow same recipe here maybe adding a little more cayenne) a couple of bottles of wine and watched Django Unchained. First, the movie ROCKS. It does a fantastic job of ridiculing and reviling the slaver culture of the American South. It’s surprisingly funny (oh the … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – meal and a movie again
What the Boss likes – Iron Sky
Dieselpunk is one of the many ‘punks out there. Back in the 80’s and 90’s it was cyberpunk, the dystopian future where corporations owned everything and computers were large and no one seemed to have a cell phone. I played Shadowrun, knew about Cyberpunk, read William Gibson and others, etc. Rather funny to now look … Continue reading What the Boss likes – Iron Sky
