This weekend I saw something pretty neat. A fellow I know, who’s quite inventive, had some folks over for a party, and he whipped out his gas powered blender.
Yes, he built it himself. I think he used a weed-whacker for the motor, and you can see he’s got some handlebars on it too with the throttle control.
Pretty neat, and I have no idea why there’s no sound on that video. I shot it with my cellphone.
Oh, he builds custom knives too.
Okay, we went and saw The Dark Knight this weekend.
Whoa! That was awesome! I went there with some really high expectations and it surpassed them. I remember thinking twice that it was about ready to end and both times I was OK with it, but the awesomeness just kept rolling.
There isn’t a single, solitary dull moment in the entire two and a half hours.
This isn’t one for children that are easily scared though. Heath Ledger, as the Joker, had me squirming in my seat at one point in the movie. Theresa closed her eyes for some of that scene. It wasn’t gory, but you couldn’t stop yourself from forming some really nasty images of what was coming next. I have absolutely no idea how they pulled off getting Two Face to look the way they did, and it was rather ghastly. The kind of stuff that’ll probably give kids nightmares.
Go see it.
