I will admit that It is weird the sabres game is about to start and assuming on one posts before me this will only be the 5th one of today. Isn't the world's largest disco Tonight or something I'm sure there is stuff going on. December is going to be pretty Busy. Next weekend I want to go see Warren Millers Children of winter it is at Rockwell hall at Buff State. Then TSO is on Saturday and then Bandits open Practice on Sunday, guess I'll miss some football. This sounds odd but it was Nice to work today, and the day went buy quick.. I also think some movie I want to see comes out on Friday as well, I need to look into that.

So yesterday was an interesting thanksgiving. Not because it was great but because it was a change from the past. Every year it hasn't been turkey but the food was a little different this year but I tried it and liked some of it. I got to watch part of all 3 football games so that was cool. Then I went to see "The boy in the striped Pajamas". I will be the first to say I thought I would like it even though it isn't my kind of movie. I will try not to give anything away that you wouldn't see in a ad for it. The movie takes place during WWII, so you all ready know it isn't some happy go lucky good ending type of movie. There is a son of a Nazi Officer (they never use the word Nazi in the movie by the way, and there is no war footage either but they show the symbols) when he gets a promotion he and the family moves. At this new house he has no friends and through exploring he finds a fence to a what he thinks is a farm (work camp) and makes friends with a boy his age. As being a boy he doesn't really get everything and he hears things at home and those things cause him to misunderstand. I see the movie to me shows how dangerous Hate and blame and propogagda is, and you see how the older sister learns this from the teacher and the younger kid who doesn't like history only adventure books doesn't get it. I'm sure I have all ready said to much. I did kinda see the end coming right before it happened but wasn't sure how it would end exactly but I won't ruin that part for anyone who wants to see it.

Just wanted to say quickly that I hope everyone enjoys their Thanksgiving. Things have changed this year with my sis having her baby girl so she is going to the boy friends families place. I forget the exact plans but I know eating and trying to see some football and going to see "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" is part of the plan. I admit it doesn't look like my kind of movie but I want to see it, and I hope I like it. Then I get to go work on Saturday, I pretty much have to though, 3 days of work means we have to make up 2 days of work, well sort of. The one thing that I wonder about thanksgiving is how did the night before become a big drinking Holiday. One would think that with getting stuff togather people wouldn't want to wake up feeling like shit. Hope everyone that goes out has a great time I'll be inside watching something, oh yeah bones and Sons of Anarachy.

It is hard to believe that Christmas is only a month away but today is the 25th so that is true. Yes I have done some shopping but still have more to do. I may go out on "Black Friday" but I doubt early. Yes now that people have less money it is a good time to find "the true meaning of Christmas" or what ever holiday you celebrate (aka 3 kings day). That being said be go out and spend money and help out this economy and hey why not give to charity also. Maybe if you spend less then some of the money you would have spent can get some kid who needs it a toy. I all ways mean to give and don't like I should maybe, i'll give like I should this year. Also don't forget you can get your self something to. Come on lets jump start this economy. Oh yeah use cash or debit and not credit, and have a good time and don't let it stress you out.

So yesterday I watched 24 Redemption. I thought it was pretty good. I will admit I thought there was going to be more action. The action was good, don't get me wrong. I think that there was a lot of story to be told to set up the new season. At the end of the show the preview for the new season in January (11th &12th I think) looks pretty good. I'm glad I watched it.

I do like documentaries . Of course if it like it is based on the topic and how it is done. You can have a great subject but if the narrator is boarring then it can kill the movie. Of course I'm a fan of lots of the HBO ones, oh yeah and then I have seen a bunch of great ones about sex, porn and sex in movies. The most recent one I watched was on IFC it was Henry Rollins in Northern Ireland . Part of the movie is him talking to people about what happened and getting their thoughts on it how the peace is now. It was pretty interesting and there where some things that are similar to the ocuppation of Iraq , and there where some interesting peoples views on that. Then there was also part of his show that he performed. One of the stories he told I had Heard before but the other stuff was good also. I wish there was a way to hear and see the complete show he did, and to see more of the interviews of people he talked to. There was also a little bit of history about What started the IRA.

Last night it was time to watch (before Sons of Anarchy that I missed last week) Christmas special 2, it was Steven Colbert. The basic idea is he in a lodge and he is trying to get to his studio to film his Christmas Special, but when he tries to leave there is a bear so he can't. He doesn't want to pay royaltes so he makes up he own Christmas songs. People drop by to see him like John Stewart and Tobe Keith. I thought some of it was pretty funny. There is this video Toby does about people trying to fight Christmas, I thought that part of great. Then I liked the part where there where 4 wise men and one was Willie Nelson and they do those long thing about weed and I thought that part was funny. Later little cop cars pull up on the manger and bust Willie he says it wasn't his he was holding it for the Donkey. They have a running missile toe joke and the only one to kiss him is this huge Bear that ate Elvis Costello and then it chases him. In the end Santa saves him. I'm not really a fan of his but thought some of it was pretty good.
