I have the sense of humor of a twelve year old boy

I must not be as cultured as I have always liked to think I am because while reading the below review of "The Love Guru" by Joe Morgenstern in the Wall Street Journal this morning, all I could do was giggle and think to myself "I can't WAIT to see that!"




'The Love Guru'
Compared to "The Love Guru," "Get Smart" is "Citizen Kane." Mike Myers, as a blissed-out self-help charlatan named Guru Pitka, gets to ride a bejeweled elephant and an electric carpet and talk with a funny Indian accent. But his character, and a ramshackle plot about a lovelorn hockey star (played by Romany Malco) are only crude pretexts for crotch humor, toilet humor, sexual outuendo and a merciless succession of scenes involving flatulence, urination and a dislikable dwarf. This from Paramount, the studio of Cecil B. DeMille, W.C. Fields, "Sunset Boulevard," "Rear Window," "Psycho" and the road pictures of Bob Hope and Bing Crosby. The road taken by "The Love Guru" could hardly be lower, and leads nowhere.

There will not be a sequel to this scary movie

For anyone who read this post, you might interested (horrified) to know that I received a text message a couple days ago from the antagonist in that story which read "hey...pretty hot out...we should get together again soon."



I will not be responding.

After Two Years of Anticipation...

I got home today from my friend Maleesa's wedding up in the mountains in PA. It was a great time and I am too tired to write too much about it but I just wanted to get it down that it was a beautiful wedding and I had a lot of fun.

The ceremony was scheduled to take place at 5 pm outside by a lake. At 4:40 clouds started to roll in and we heard thunder. At 5 it started to rain but by 5:20 the rain stopped, the sun came out and the ceremony went on as planned.



















As we were taking pictures after the ceremony it started to rain again and I'm sure the photographers got some nice shots of the bridesmaids hiking up their dresses and sprinting across the lawn to the club house.

I'd have to say the highlight for me was pulling the father of the bride on to the dance floor to dance with the bridal party after we were all introduced. He did a very dignified version of the pointy finger dance to "Sexy Back" The crowd ate it up. Just got a picture of it so I had to include it in here:















It was great to see old friends and have everyone together to celebrate...and to dance to Love Shack with my college roommates and shout "tiiiiiin roof- rusted" in unison like the old days. A good time was had by all...
