And the verdict on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is… Not as amazing as some reviews say, a good movie nonetheless. But I am afraid I won’t be able to look at Daniel Craig for a while without thinking of Simon’s Cat YouTube videos. I don’t want to write spoilers, but I just had [...]
There is no such thing as a bad day. Days can be more or less entertaining, productive, funny, boring, relaxed, hectic, rainy and so on. Never bad per se. Nerd trick to know if your heater is on: stick/pin a paper to the wall right above the heater. If the paper moves, hot air is [...]
I recently finished watching the BBC Wallander series n.2. I am a big fan of The Kurt Wallander Series, I read all the books last Summer before I moved to the UK. My mother had them all in the family library and she said they were really well written and thoroughly enjoyed them. I was [...]
Please, visit my friend Justin’s page. He’s an amazing soul, doing so much to help others. He filmed a documentary on meth addiction, traveling all over the US. If you haven’t seen the doc, you have to, it’s really moving, informative and please, help Justin spreading the word! The more people get to see the [...]
Last time I watched a TV marathon I was around 14 or 15, at a friend’s house. We watched all 3 Star Wars episodes in a row. The ones with Harrison Ford, of course. The ones I think of when someone mentions ‘Star Wars’, although the new ones were not bad either. Every year the [...]
I finally watched Die Hard 4.0. I never really felt the urge to see it, but it was on cable TV here, so… Thing is, I never thought a 4th Die Hard movie was necessary. I really liked the previous ones. I know they had problems with the script for DH 4.0, changed the plot [...]
I recently stumbled upon an old gift from some vet school mates, a Zippo lighter, Vintage Series 1937 (so the box and guarantee paper say). It was a present from ’97 or ’98. I have no idea how much it costed back then, but I can only find it on eBay now, among James Bond [...]
Yesterday I came back home after a dinner with some friends and I was lokoing for the news on TV. Skipping channels I found Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee. I can’t recall how many times I’ve read the book, and I had already watched the film when it was released. But I wasn’t interested [...]
The other day I was watching some tv while working on my last beading artwork. It was a dark and rainy, late afternoon. A cup of tea on the side table and the hope to find something interesting to watch on cable tv. It is true what they say: so many channels, and nothing to [...]
