Not much to blog about today so I thought I would share these couple of videos of Stone Temple Pilots performing on Jimmy Kimmel.

‘Trippin On a Hole in a Paper Heart’

‘Vasoline’

The 90’s were a great time for me personally and this music really takes me back. Takes me back to my 20’s. Right back to the many fun nights I shared with my sister. I think I will always love it because of that.

You know I love boxing! I have loved since the early 80’s and really fell hard when Tyson was in his hay day so to speak. he was “the man”! As I got older and as I spent more time watching boxing as a sport I realized there is a whole lot more to it then just punching some one out. I have picked a lot of favorites over the years and have a list of boxers that I will make sure I watch when ever they are in the ring. One being “my man” Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya. I know he’s a pretty boy and most fans either love him or hate him and I tried not to like him, I really did but I can’t help it. There is a reason why the Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr. match shattered box office records. The two of them together is an awesome and entertaining night of boxing!  Now there is talk of a rematch happening some time in September. If there is one thing my husband could hand me for my birthday that would make me jump up and down it would be Mayweather vs De La Hoya tickets. I can’t even imagine what a great night out that would be. One of these days I am going to experience it for myself and not be watching pay pre- view from my couch. But no matter where I am this will be one exciting night of boxing I wont be missing!

If you missed the hilarious return of The Office Thursday night, I posted the episode and a little review over here.

Damn Mary, you are one cool chick !  If I was brave enough, this picture could make for one really sexy blog skin.

I swiped it from Catlin.

Allison and my nephew took over the living room last night for a double feature family fun night. Two family movies, two kids, two sleeping bags, two pizzas, a couple dozen Webkinz and whole lot of fun. The kids seemed to really have a good time.
First we watched Enchanted. I LOVED it ! We all agreed it was a very good movie. Both the kids told me how much they liked it, more then once. I guess it is one I’ll be adding to our collection. Then we put in Water Horse. Being as old as I am, I saw maybe ten minutes of this movie and was out like a light. I woke a few times and both kids had their eyes glued to the movie. That tells me it must have been pretty good. I just asked over breakfast and both movies got two really big thumbs up from these two. I guess our double feature was a success.

I can always count on my blogging friends to get me through !
It’s after 2:00pm ! My good friend Uncle Vito is on!

I surprised my husband over the weekend with a pizza and beer night, complete with a couple of manly movie rentals. I picked up 30 Days of Night and Chaos. Chaos was nothing I thought it was. Even though we both enjoyed it, I expected high action and more things being blown up. Still, not really a bad movie. It had a few good twists and turns in the story and Jason Statham and Ryan Phillippe were both worth the time. Now, 30 Days of Night is another story. It was pretty good. Better then I expected. Lots of action and suspense, blood and gore. Some scenes were gross enough for me to hide my face but I still thought the movie was a lot of fun.

We have been a little movie crazy at our house lately. Here are my quick thoughts of what we have rented so far.

Things We Lost in The Fire,
LOVED it! Was there really any doubt? I am not a big Holly Berry fan but I thought she did a good job in this film. Of course Benicio is fantastic as always.

Rendition,
Not too bad. Gerry and I liked it. I was glad not to have seen it in the theater but it was worth renting.

In the Valley of Elah,
Another good film worth renting but I was glad not to have spent the money in the theater. Very well acted and done. Just a little long in spots.

No Country for Old Men,
Oh my gosh ! Such a good movie! Very disturbing yet so well made. Worth every award it has won. This one I wish I would have seen in the theater. I know a lot of people didn’t care for the ending but I thought it was brilliant. I am thinking of picking up the book to read next.

I am Legend,
How did I not know what this was about? I was so misinformed! I jumped a few times and thought it was good but I think Gerry liked it more then I did.
