The Kingdom

Saw The Kingdom yesterday...thought it was decent. Jennifer Garner kicks some booty. She should get more screen time in future projects now that she has had her kid. The star was undoubtedly Jamie Foxx. Got to hand it to him - he makes it really enjoyable. How much does he make per movie now? $20mm?

Luca lounge and Grease ball

You know what it feels like when you meet a tool? It's pretty funny. This dude was trying to talk to me and my buds and saw Angie and asked her if she knew us. The background is that this guy was a creep while we were all in b-school and he just couldn't help himself. He's totally eyeing Angie the whole time he's talking to us dudes. So, finally he takes the leap into this conversation

Grease: "Do you like kids?"
Angie: no response
Grease: "Do you like P?"
Angie: no response / shrug
Grease: "Do you know Kenneth?"
Angie: no response
Grease: "Is he your boyfriend?"
P: "husband"
Me: roll eyes

awkward....
Take the grease to the curb!

Brookyln

I went to check out VH1 HipHop Honors Panel series in Dumbo with my buddy, R, and we both thought Tribe Called Quest would be there. But alas, it was just these industry people talking about hip hop and culture. We walked into Andre Harrell talking about what was ghetto fabulous - which he said was Louis Vuitton. (ouch).
They were selling some good DVDs on street culture and b-boys. Wish I could dance like that!

Souped up car...flashback!

Check out this car I saw parked down my street. Reminds me of those hard-core Asians souping up their Acura Integras or Honda Preludes. Ahh, now they only have to play "Back to the Hotel" by N2Deep with the deep bass. Check out the spoiler! The rims! The tints! yes!

The Hills...update

What is the deal with LC? She really repulses a lot of people and has even gotten on the nerves of her best bud, Audrina. Mainly b/c of her deadbeat mute boyfriend - Justin/Bobby. Loser.

What's great is Elodie. She administers such sweet sweet revenge on Heidi. Did I tell you that she was on my friend's softball team in LA? She looks like she could really put a hurt on a softball!

Elodie lies and says she'll cover Heidi for the Emmy's while Heidi shamelessly goes on her anniversary dinner at some crappy Mexican restaurant.

I really dig the fact that Spencer really does nothing and is beginning to resemble a young bushy Teen Wolf character with his unsightly facial hair.

Frankie is also beginning to become an annoying character. But I like the objectivity of Brody in assessing people's relationships. Somthing to be learned here? Nah. Not unless you like to put a colored custom-fitting cast on your broken pinky. ha ha

UPDATE - clothing name discovery

We have added "Option A" as another choice to the right. Feel free to re-vote. You can actually vote for more than one name. Really enjoyed and appreciated the feedback so far. Will come to a decision by end of the weekend (hopefully)!

3 years and counting!

Tonight we celebrated our 3rd year anniversary. Had dinner at Esca! I gotta say the wine was better than the food. Does this piss anyone off out there? Grilled Octopus was great though!

My expectations were too high. French Laundry, Babbo, Morimoto (in Philly, NOT NYC), Per Se all solidly beat it.
