Game Night at the Stanski's 

It was a fun Friday night. First I went and lifted weights at Junction Fitness for the first time in about a year. Sore sore sore sore sore. It only will get worse tomorrow. Then I watched Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. It is a Mel Gibson classic. I finally decided to turn on my cell and I found out that I got invited over to the Stanski's to play games and drink. Sounded good to me. We ended up playing The Game of Life. I was doing great, I had a wife, 2 girls, 1 boy, a log cabin for a house and TONS'O'MONEY. Plus I was an Athlete. I had the most "Life Cards" halfway through the game and then we ran out. When they are out and you land on the correct space, you can steal one from any opposing player. Guess who got almost all their cards stolen? The bad part was I lost so many and they are worth so much money I ended up losing by less than $100,000 - Scott had 15 of them and I had 6. Bastard :-)

This morning I'm off to Boston to see the Bruins. Should be tons of fun, especially all the bar hopping after!

Movie Review: The Matrix: Revolutions 

*Caution: If you have yet to see this movie, do not read any further!*
What the heck? I am still trying to understand why this movie isn't as good as I thought it would be. It had all the essential elements- futuristic machines, predictions from the Oracle, Neo's fight to save Zion. For whatever reason, it just didn't do it for me. Here are a few of the things that bugged me.
- Is Neo alive or dead at the end?
- Why haven't the humans attempted to sabotage the machine city before?
- Why did Trinity have to die?????????
- How can a "peace" exist between the humans and machines when only people who want to be released from the Matrix will be and the rest will continue to be batteries? The humans will retaliate no matter what.
- What happened to all the hovercrafts that were left behind to protect Zion? (as they said in Reloaded)
- Why didn't the humans have a stand-alone EMP in the docking bay ready to go?
This is just a short list of new questions I had after watching the third movie. All the questions that I had after watching the second movie continue to be unanswered (What was up with the multiple versions of the Matrix and multiple times Neo visited the Architect?) At this rate nothing will be answered, so I guess I'm just going to have to give it a rest. Good luck understanding it when you see it, and if you have already seen it and understand all these points, please explain them to me!

The Matrix: Revolutions 

It looks like I'm going to see the final Matrix movie tonight. It's opening night and it's going to Rock! Will Zion survive the attack of the machines? What is up with that spy the machines seemed to have sent into the "real" world? Will Neo save the human race? All questions will be answered tonight at 10pm at the Essex Outlet Cinemas!

Hockey Madness 

It was personally hockey craziness time as the University of Vermont Hockey Team visited Michigan Tech in a battle of the teams that sucked last year. In a surprise that Scooby-Doo couldn't even comprehend, Tech beat UVM 7-3 on Friday night. On Saturday the two suck-titans skated to a 2-2 tie. Hats off to MTU on an excellent start to a hockey season. This should finally settle any debates about which state is more dominant in hockey....go state of Michigan!

All Saints Day 

After last night's party, it's a good thing yesterday was All Saints Day, I need the forgiveness! Nothing says a great party like a keg, costumes, and lots and lots and lots of hot medical students! Scott had a costume from Carrie that looked as though he was riding on a child's shoulders. I know it sounds weird, but it was awesome (picture here). My costume was Scooby-Doo....just kidding. Actually I had planned on going as a pirate, but that looked pretty dumb so I went as a biker guy. It wasn't the most creative costume ever, but it did it's job. Ladies poured over me all night like hot maple syrup! I even got a little dancing action in. Eat your heart out playa-haters!
