Like I promised a Iron Man review update. I forgot to mention Jeff Bridges. Here you go:

(Warning Spoiler Alert)

UPDATE
So outside of the amazing preformance of Junior in the movie there is Jeff Bridges man. Lets just say he’s the dude. And all the while you’re watching the movie you’re thinking why did you go bald. What happen to the long hair and bath rob man. Now as cool as the robot fighting was it all could had been avoided by just giving back his rug man. Plus I think Ironman was fighting the wrong Lebowski man. The real enemy here is those Nihilist guys dude.

Thank you, I hope that made everyone smile…. Dude. Now go drink a white russian, if your responsible and over 21.

I got a call from someone that I haven’t heard anything from in a while. I’m glad I got that call. The last time I spoke to them I said some stuff that created a rift. And it seems what created the rift has changed and I’m glad. I never have been able to apologize to them for what I said. But I want to say here, I’m sorry. I’m glad I can have my friend back.

I know that all sounds vague, but this post is written to someone, not for the public. But for the majority (everyone minus one) of the people who read this I want to hear stories about how you and your friends have had rifts and how they have been resolved. I can only imagine what some people have had that would make my rift small.

Later,
Andrew

PS… Tomorrows blog will be about Jeff Bridges becuase I forgot to include him in my Ironman Blog. I mean how can I forget the dude….. man.

Ok, I know its a day late. This is a post that should have happened yesterday but I hadn’t seen the movie yet. I finally got to see Iron Man yesterday afternoon. I was suppose to see it last Tuesday at a prescreening but that didn’t happen. Ok, here you go, my review.

REVIEW:
Didn’t suck at all. Infact this is what Transformers should have been. I mean here we have robots fighting and throwing down and I can actually make out the details on screen. In Transformers it felt like they were “wrestling” and all the action screens were blurry to hide that they didn’t actually know how to animate the fights. BUT! in Ironman you clearly see all the details and you really get into the action.

Never at any point do you feel like this is just another fight rehashed or that it climaxed to early like so many other action movies fall prey to. It had just the right build up to the epic ending. And I’m not talking about the end fight, I mean the build up to that which is Samual L. Jackson! I can’t wait to see Samual Jackson in a super hero movie. I mean imagine the attitude of Snakes on a Plane and the fighting skills of a Jedi!

Ok, so no lets talk about about Robert Downey Jr. He is amazing as a drunk ego driven man. I really bought his performance and I couldn’t imagine anyone else playing that role. Props to Robert Downey Jr.

So I can’t smell. Kinda. I don’t exactly have a strong since of smell. Its so bad that last week I caused an office offense by cooking garlic herbal chicken in the microwave and caused the whole building to come out to the kitchen and ban me from bringing my own lunch to work. The whole time the chicken was being nuked I didn’t even smell any of what my co-workers where talking about.

I say all this becuase yesterday I was at the mall (I love the apple store) and one of those market research firms where doing test on a new scent. As you can imagine I’m probably not the best person for the job but they didn’t need to know that. So they tell me to spray on this scent, Product 431. My first reaction to his was alarming. It stung my nose and made me tear up instantly. The researcher said “yeah, thats the response we’ve been getting alot of.” OMG!

So let me get this straight, some lab techs created this scent and smelled it themselves, got this reaction and still figured we need to do market research. I mean if I was one of these inventors I would have been curious and would have tried it out on myself first and made my way over to marketing to see if any of the ladies noticed. And I think if I got that reaction I wouldn’t exactly feel a need to subject that to other people.

I want to know what is your worst experience with testing products. I also want to know what are some of the microwave rules you have around your offices. (Besides no popcorn, thats standard now)

In a recent post I wrote about the retail industry and those in store credit cards. And I must stay Ruth’s comment touched me. And I don’t want it to sound like I have anything against the cashier… No, I have something against their bosses who force them to say those things so that each interaction with the customers is exactly the same and not personal at all. I think if you let the cashier do their own thing it would make for a better experience all around…

I’m sorry if anyone was offended and thought I was attacking cashiers.

Ok so Stephen Hawking has just come out and said that Aliens exist!

Now thats just funny!

So last night I went out with Big Al to a hockey game. It was something else. Hockey is a fast action sport. It was fun! But the team I wanted to win sadly lost… in the first period…

So after hanging out with Al yesterday evening I get dragged into the studio this morning… Twice. First becuase Al wanted to know what I thought of the game. I don’t know what I’m talking about when it comes to sports. So outside of “it was fun” I don’t know what to say, Sorry Al for not knowing what about hockey to talk about, though I did like it when the players were smacking into eachother.

And I’m sorry kellie if I sounded cocky this morning in the studio, I didn’t mean to. But I’m just proud of being a gamer and its just something that I actually know about. And as for all the girls at Primos asking “That Andrew?” “OH Andrew!”… Al stretched the truth there a bit, it was 2 girls… One who Al introduced me to and the other was the hostess who I’ve met before.

Tonight is the night for my date with Kidd…. Yeah….. Ackward….
