The Simpsons Movie

I’m a pretty smart guy, and 41 years old.  Is it wrong that I dug The Simpsons Movie?  Tough.  I did.  Go see it.  It made 70+ million in the first weekend, so it can’t be all me.

The Hangover workout

Went our for a birthday party last night at Joseph’s in Hollywood, and as usual drank WAY too much.  Pam went golfing for my Mom’s birthday, so I got to watch Padraig Harrington win the British Open, and then go work out to kill my hangover.

I informed Brandon of my situation, and we agreed that the best thing would probably be to just do an all-around workout, minus legs, thanks to the tendonitis I have in my left knee.  We’d do light weights, 15 reps, 2 sets each.  Sounded good.  After 10 minutes on the elliptical warming up, we did 19 exercises – multiple chest, back, trceps, biceps, shoulders and abs – and it was incredibly effective.  My hangover was gone.  Came home, got in the pool, and napped for an hour.  For a hangover Sunday, it was a great one.

iPhone freaks Kent out

Went to flying club meeting last week with my new iPhone – friend/flight instructor Kent Yarnell was there, and immediately wanted to play with it.  Picked it up and started checking all the icons – hit “Google Maps” first.  Funny thing was that the last person I showed it to wanted to see Google Maps too.  So I pulled up a contact, and clicked the address – goes right to Google Maps with a pushpin labeled for that contact, on their house.  Not funny so far – I know.  What was funny was that I used KENT as the demo.  So when he picked it up, and hit Google Maps, it had a pushpin with HIS name on it on HIS address.  He FREAKED.  “How did it know it was me?” he asked.

“Dude – it’s an IPHONE.  It knows EVERYTHING.”
