Manpower!
Dad and Mason got back from their camp on Saturday but Mom and the girls are still gone. With no ladies around we've been living life the guy way. We hit Safeway and loaded up on Root beer, Ice cream, Sobe and Bush's baked beans. Then we hit up Hollywood Video to get some manly movies. We got Quigley Down Under, The Sting, and Clint Eastwood's A Fistful of Dollars.
Yesterday afternoon, we went and saw Dead Man's Chest. I liked the movie although it wasn't quite as good as Curse of the Black Pearl. DMC was darker than the original. It just didn't exude the aura of fun that the original had. The plot was also more straight forward with less clever twists. The hook ending was rather irritating as well. On the plus side I though some of the sword fighting was better choreographed. On the whole it was a good movie if not as great as the positively fabulous original.
It's been a great weekend but I've got work in a few hours so I'd best get ready.

Manly movies, eh? Sounds like fun... it's a good idea to save the baked beans for when the girls are gone. for sure.
dmc was also kind of cheesy. like the who,e water wheel thing. the toe tihng made me barf, almost.
Ooh, fun! Guys with the house to themselves. Yeah, I didn't think DMC was as good as the first. Sparrow's character really seemed to change!
