Well goodluck with it Art! I wonder, did you have to go through a gnarly background check to work for the casino? I went through a gnarly (gnews) one for LAPD, so I assume if youre around bookoo money and security, its similar. I watch that show Vegas sometimes and I seen them shitty Ocean's movies, so I think I have a good idea what you're jobs gonna be like. ;)

Movies:
Saw KNocked Up - fuckin good! A *couple* of times, I wasn't into the main guys adlibbing (seemed like adlibbing) but otherwise, it was really funny and just an awesome flick. I really should see that show Freaks N Geeks since I'm liking this dudes movies.

ALSO saw 3 other fine films. The Condemmed which is like a wrestler movie staring Steve Austin. It was actually alright. Stupid action movie, but pacing and shit was good and I never really got bored watching it. Basic "prisoners dropped on island to fight to the death" but was pretty entertaining.

Fracture: It was okay also. Silence of the Lambs dude playing same kinda character again, but it was still a watchable thriller. Ending was POOP though, but whatever.

Last fucking champ of a movie was Perfect Strangers. First of all, had nothing to do with the TV show, so that was bullshit. Secondly, you get 3 famous "good" actors, Bruce Willis, Halley Barry, and Giovani Ribisi (he's a fuckin Scientologist btw) and it don't help one bit. DUMBEST MOVIE EVER. I'm going to spoil it for you all. H.B.'s friend gets killed and signs point to Bruce Willis who's a famous fashion designer (???). Giovanni helps her crack the case, BUT WAIT, giovanni is scary obsessed with Halley Barry. Hmm... But the evidence points to Bruce Willis and he goes to jail. BUT THEN, out of the blue, Giovanni confronts Halle Barry and it turns out SHE killed her friend and framed that dude cuz of some STUPID ........

it's so not even worth going on. It's just a really fucking horrible movie. With like, twist twist twist at the end. None of it makes sense. Garbage. And I can't spell any of these people's names, so it's frustrating to write.

PLAYED: Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Demo. Not too good. Barely a graphic upgrade from the Wolvenstein precursor, and after playing Half-Life 2's game engine with its awesome physics etc, this shit felt too cheesy. Then just d/l'd Fortress Forever, some hyped up Teamfortress mod for hl2 (b4 tf2 comes out offical from valve) and that shit is kinda lame too. Meh... I don't know what I want from a shooter..)

Oh, also did the Bioshock demo last night. Actually ran good on my computer. Put gfx to medium tho, high quality was a little choppy. Medium still looked good. BUT, I dunno, I wasn't into the cramped, dark, claustrophobic feel of it. SO, I friggin cheated myself and went on a site and read the whole plot and then read all the audio-logs you find in the game. Now it is officially spoiled for life for me! :) It's ok. Seems like a neat idear tho.
