Both are available via Netflix streaming. Oldboy is what I like to call a “mind-f*” film. My favorite type. Fight Club, Memento, and others of that type fall into this category. It’ll leave you wowed. It’s a Korean film so you’ll be reading subtitles, but Heather and I agreed it was very nearly a 5-star. This Is England had been on my instant queue…
Last year I set a ton of goals… too many, in fact. I also didn’t follow The Golden Rules of Setting Goals (primarily #2). This year, I will do better. Without further ado, I present you my goals for 2011: Run 1000 miles. I’m back to a point where I think I can run 20 miles a week without bringing my hamstring issues back.…

That’s perfectly watchable, especially when you grew up with these guys in all your action flicks. Unfortunately, nostalgia can only take you so far. The geriatrics simply…
Jess, last update of the year! Big Money League: Dominated the entire season despite starting 4-3 (bad matchups). Won the regular season with a 10-3 record. Did I mention I was dominant all season? I was. Ended with 10% more points than 2nd place. Got a buy through the first round of the playoffs, started off abysmally with two points from five players in…
