Stuff

This has nothing to do with cycling, triathlon, training or cooking. Though I do have some EXCELLENT recipes for a few things I've cooked recently that are KICK-@$$. That will be the next post.

I just decided I'd list a few movies I've seen recently that completely rocked and I can't stop recommending them to people.

And then I will also post Tuesday's "Get Fuzzy" comic because for anybody who likes baseball, it's hilarious.

Recent movies I've seen that were totally awesome:

1. Bigger Stronger Faster - a very well-done documentary on steroid use in America. It presents both sides of the argument without taking a stance for either one. You decide.

2. The Visitor - made by the same guy that brought us "The Station Agent" (also AWESOME movie); very un-American style film about friendship and the issues immigrants face here in the US. Another must-see.

3. True Romance - a Quentin Tarantino film, need I say much more? Came out in 1993 and has tons of movie stars. I HEART THIS MOVIE SO MUCH!!! Just saw it for the first time last night and omg...I think I like it more than Kill Bill.

And this week's Get Fuzzy has been all about Bucky Cat making fun of Rob being a Red Sox fan. It's awesome.

True Romance is one of my three all time favorite movies. I love it.

The Visitor keeps popping up in my Netflix, based on my reviews and other rentals, I will add it to my list!

i HEART "Get Fuzzy" and it is pretty hilarious especially after I have lived in the Red Sox nation for 5 years. They are their own breed...truly.

I loved the Visitor! Thanks for the other recommendations...I watched the movie about the oldsters singing and it was as good as you promised.

I totally did not see it on your blog before I wrote about 'Bigger, Stronger, Faster'. I have an Xbox 360 and can watch a ton of Netflix stuff direct - no DVD, so I watched it.
