My wife thought it would be fun to check my blood pressure since we're at her dad's house and he has a BP cuff. She said it was too high. Two minutes later she serves me a big bowl of Butterfinger ice cream and a chocolate chip cookie. Not that I'm complaining, but I wonder if I should be watching my back.

Only if she recently increased your life insurance policy. Otherwise, she probably just doesn't like you.

How's Calipornia (as you called it), and are you missing Vegas yet?

I watched the Martian last week. It was much better than I had anticipated. Really enjoyed it.

I've got it on my DVR. I've watched the first few minutes and I'm going back to it tonight.

Interstellar - is a good movie if you haven't seen it.

Of the three recent space movies my order is the Martian, Interstellar, then Gravity. I'm not an astrophysicist but there were so many holes in Gravity that it made it totally unbelievable.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.

Gravity was about seeing Ms. Bullock changing clothes in zero-gravity. :-D
I don't remember much about the rest of the movie...

Interstellar was next on my list, until I saw the following review:

You did a great job trying to sell this movie to me, but I just went and watched a trailer and think I'll pass on the movie. I think the movie Frozen is more believable ;)

It's still a fun movie even if it is not scientifically accurate.

I really enjoy that song "For the first time in forever, I think I crapped my pants." It's got some catchy lyrics. And then when Princess Elsa starts to sing "conceal, don't feel" CLASSIC!

My wife turned it on once and I could feel the testosterone being sucked out of my body. I left the room.
