Chock Full 'O Nuts

Lot 'o things to report on.

I went to see "The Dark Knight" on Thursday. If I had to sum up the movie in one word, it would be "intense". I loved it. And Heath Ledger's performance was outstanding. It was clear that he sunk his whole heart, soul, and life into that role. The hospital scene was my favorite. It's hard to say whether I like this movie better than "Ironman". I still think "Ironman" is my sentimental favorite action movie of the year, but "The Dark Knight" beats it on drama and acting.

This is turning out to be a memorable year for music and movies. Any body notice that? I don't remember when was the last time that I saw so many movies in the theater. There are going to be some tough choices when it comes time for the award shows.

I also picked up my new inline skates from Play It Again Sports. Mission sent me a new pair of skates to replace my original defective skates. I had to return the original skates when I picked up the new ones, but at least they didn't force me to be without any skates while I waited. I already checked out the new skates. All of the axles are in good condition.

Yesterday the condition were perfect again for a bike ride. And I knocked another 5 seconds off my 2-1/2 mile time. My best time for the year is now 7m25s. If I can manage to lose 5 to 10 pounds, I'm sure I can beat the 7m15s mark.
