Denzel throwing Axes in Buffalo while enjoying a 2L of Mountain Dew

Went to see Wild at the Princess and the Hobbit at Landmark.  It's amusing to see the type of crowd that was at each movie.  At Wild there weren't many people under the age of 40.  Mostly people that were in healthy shape and dressed well enjoying a small popcorn and pop if they had any food at all.  At the Hobbit.  It was 4:30 in the afternoon and there was multiple middle aged men and women. Most were on the heavier side, with the biggest popcorn of all time with the 2L fountain drink that they offer.    While grabbing straws we noticed multiple people coming out to get more liquid butter for their popcorn.  Sara and I had a giant popcorn at both.  It's exactly what you expect at these two movies.

Wild - 8.8/10
The Hobbit - 7.1/10
The Equalizer - 6.5/10

The question is if Denzel from the Equalizer spent time with Liam Neeson's daughter from Taken and Liam got the wrong idea, and went after him what would happen?

Sara scoffed at points during Wild.  If you don't know the story line a women that is trying to get over things that have happened in her life and decides to hike the Pacific Crest Trail.  She has an outrageously sized back pack and doesn't get the right fluid to use her cook set while hiking.  As most people know by watching Sara's YouTube videos that she was more prepared then a mustard in an Our Compliments bottle.

Christmas is almost upon us.  Christmas has transformed for Sara and I into an appreciating what we have what we would like to accomplish in the new year.  And of course spending time with our amazing families.  Hopefully that gets an extra point on the wine scale that they were going to purchase.

Watching many Tiny House shows.  Tiny Houses are 200-400 sq foot homes that contain everything that a larger home does, just in much smaller formats.  We want this to be something that we can look into building or buying in the next five years.  Zoning laws make it difficult in Ontario.  Things seem to be changing though.  Have a look on YouTube about it.

There is a place in Toronto that offers Ax throwing.  You can bring your own beers and throw some axes around.  What I picture in my head is these mountain men wearing flannel shirts, with suspenders, work boots, and giant beards with foaming over mugs of beer picking up an ax with one hand and throwing it through a tree that has somehow miraculously survived indoors.

Horrible Bosses 2 - Needlessly made for money -  3.1/10
  
I try not to get upset while waiting for a one thousand year old woman to cross the parking lot.  One day I would love to just lay on the horn or yell obscenities just to see what would happen.

The Buffalo Bills in usual Buffalo Bills fashion fail to win on the road against the Raiders in a must win situation after looking fantastic against the Packers.  That whole city should be given a wedgie.

Been watching many Ted Talks recently about travel, tiny houses, minimalism, and other topics.  You could go for days watching these videos.  There are so many interesting points of view out there.  If you are sick of thinking the world is one awful place after watching the news.  Watch a Ted Talk about practically any subject it will make you feel better about the world.

Talked a guy yesterday about gift cards.  We were discussing whether it's better to just receive cash then a gift card.  The old argument of putting something thought into it versus something you are actually going to use.  I guess it boils down to how well you know the person.  If you know the person is a foodie or a drinkie then you can be a little creative with your gift.   If you know nothing or very little about the person, cash is king.  Those stupid Visa gift cards cost money to either activate or purchase.  Don't bother with them.  Give them cash instead.

They should change the word mutton.  You understand it's sheep.  Just the word mutton makes me think of putting food into a napkin and being chased by dogs.

Jerry Seinfeld should have had Batman up in the apartment.  Superman is a dweeb.
