Last Saturday, Bert and I went to see the Hawaiian Comedy Tour at Humphrey's. It was headlined by Augie T. who we saw last month at the Sheraton in Waikiki. The dude is funny!!! We didn't stick around for the musical band that played afterwards, so instead of heading home (it was only 9 pm), we wanted to watch a movie.
That movie ended up being Clerks 2 at Fashion Valley. Click here to see the trailer. Unfortunately, the movie was just "so so". It wasn't that great, and we both like Kevin Smith flicks too so we kind of expected it to be better. The dialogue was stilted and the chemistry between the two male leads wasn't the same as the first groundbreaking movie back in '94. One of my favorite parts was when they discussed the merits of the sacred Trilogies (Star Wars & Lord of the Rings) and basically reduced the Lord of the Rings series as "movies about WALKING".
SPOILER ALERT: Do not watch this movie if you are easily offended or hate shittily made flicks or seeing Jason Mewes pull a "Buffalo Bill" dance move (full frontal tucked in!!!). Actually, that part made me laugh! You may also want to skip this film if you find "interspecies erotica" disturbing! Anyways, the first Clerks will always be the better flick of the two.
**************************************
Our bedroom furtniture set up is almost complete. We got the nightstands and tall dresser last week. The pseudo-entertainment center (way cheap at IKEA) was obtained a few days ago. The bed was picked up today and still remains in its box.
Speaking of boxes...the empty box for our tall dresser is now TC's "Rocket Ship". It's standing tall in the empty corner of our family room. There is a door cut out at the bottom (it's not really a cut-out, but more like a child/doggie door that flaps up) and windows that Bert cut out on the side. It's already outfitted with our sofa pillows and a blanket. I hope we don't keep it for almost a year like the box our club chair came in. That particular box was her "fort" and we had that damn thing in the loft for about 10 months! But it was fun and her cousins and friends enjoyed cramming in there and playing "monster" or "space ship" or whatever!
We still need to get a new mattress and TV. Well, not that we "need" it but because our old TV is pretty crappy and it's high time to get one with a clear picture and channels that work! One of my faves, the Food Network channel is totally blurry upstairs. : (

Regarding viewing the food channel upstairs in your bedroom; Screg and I had that same problem at our previous resident and now our new place.
The food channel comes in clear on all the other TV's in our other bedrooms, even the ones upstairs just not our bedroom upstairs.
I hope it comes in clear with the new TV. I don't like watching TV downstairs; I prefer watching TV in the comfort of my bed.
I prefer it that way too.
Oh and I forgot to mention that the food network is now channel 67 instead of 69.
It looks like there's been some changes of channels in all areas.
I don't know why Cox decided to do this but I don't like it. The moment you get use to channels they change it and then you have to remember the new numbers.
