Sunday Sunday Sunday or Blackjack Mulligan

So Friday night I ended up hanging out with Lee watching the 80's classic "Back to the Beach" and eating Junior's. I had forgotten how odd BTTB was. As Lee put it, "it was totally ahead of its time, kind of like the Brady Bunch movie in that it made fun of the characters by putting them in current situations unchanged from thier previous incarnations" ...well maybe he didn't put it QUITE like that, but still it has the jist of it intact. Either way, the movie was fun and non-sensical.
Saturday, after work, I went to the McPhillips casino with Ryan, Tina, Andrew, and Brian. We all tried our hands at slots and Blackjack. I sucked ass at slots, mostly due to the fact that the ones there were so weird. I just wanted simple poker or 3 row slots, not these crazy 5 row, diagonals, cartoon things. I made money and came out ahead in the end through the Blackjack table. All in all, accounting for previous losses, I won 16$. I'm sure I could've done better if I stayed in longer, but I wasn't really all the in to it. Maybe next time.
I am trying to organize an outing tonight to see "Farenheit 9/11" as I really want to check it out. I like Micheal Moore's stuff so... Oh yeah, on the subject of Moore, I read something in the paper about a guy who wrote a book called "Micheal Moore is a big fat stupid liar" has a movie coming out about him, and runs a website called "micheal moore hate america." It's insanely clear that he has issues with the guy. Although he denies having any republican leanings, I think it's pretty obvious that much of his hatred comes from being on the opposite end of the political spectrum. Seriously, while sometimes insinuating things, Moore has yet to have something in his movies or books PROOVEN untrue and that is due to the dilligent fact checking the companies that release his stuff go through. Yes, I know that he can sometimes omit things that cause people to assume a certain idea, but he never SAYS that idea. He is very careful with his work. If people assume something, well, that's their own issue. Remember, "When you assume, you make an ass out of U and Me." :)
