Movie Review: The Expendables 2

Today my movie review is of The Expendibles 2. This movie stars Slyvester Stallone and a bunch of other older movie action heroes. The movie starts out with shooting. Throughout the movie, there are assorted shootings, knife fights, fist fights, and the occasional chat between characters. Of course, you don't really need to know that much about the characters because all that really needs to be shown to the movie viewer is action. I do like Slyvester Stallone, but this movie is nothing like the original Rocky movie. It is more like Rambo in Afghanistan. However, one interesting sidenote. Chuck Norris talks about how he bit a cobra and it dies. Just recently I read in the news about a cobra that died as a result of a bite from a human, and now I know who it was that bit the snake. It must have been Chuck Norris. That will teach a snake to bite an action star! I did not particularly like this movie from its beginning. I give it a tongue out and no paws up. This is about a 2 out of 10 on the human movie scale. I will state though that, if you are a big fan of action movies, and enjoy seeing fighting on the big screen, you will like this movie. Personally, I would have rather watched two hours of that stupid cat, Garfield.

Exercise While Writing

There is big news today on the Internet. Facebook is closing their gift shop on August 1, 2010. I can only assume that making those "virtual" gifts must have been more difficult than they realized. You know the humans are lazy when they get to the point that virtual work is too difficult.

I'm sure most of us are familiar with the concept of paper weights. Paper weights are the items that humans put on their paper work so it doesn't blow away. This made me wonder--do they make pencil weights to make sure your pens and pencils don't disappear when the wind blows? Imagine my surprise when I discovered that they do make pencil weights, but they are largely for the humans who want a work out while they write. If you ask this dog, I think the humans are getting way too obsessed with exercise when they have to exercise while they write. I think the humans could use a lesson in goofing off from Garfield the Cat or maybe the lazy humans who refuse to buy the weights for pencils and pens--the sensible humans.
