We went to the Wild Animal Park again! This time we went with Devin’s parents and they loved it. We did the little train ride again, this time in the morning, and we saw rhinos fighting horn to horn! Or tusk to tusk or whatever. That place is SO COOL! There is so much to see.
Last night we stayed in and relaxed. I made Chicken and Sausage Jambalaya and Devin drank a beer and I drank a cider. There is a new kind I’m drinkin’ called Woodpecker. It’s so smooth and tasty. Anyway I had one of those and we watched ‘The League of Extaordinary Gentlemen.’ They introduced one of the characters, Dorian Gray, and I didn’t have any idea who he was. Here is this specially selected group of badasses and this guy. Devin didn’t know either. So I looked it up today and I’m wondering how he got to be in the League? He didn’t have any cool superpowers, well, I guess the american guy didn’t have any either…or, that quagmire guy played by Sean Connery. On second thought–not so extraordinary. And there was a girl too. It can’t specifically be named ‘The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen’ and have a woman too. That movie will not worry me when they announce the Oscar nominations.

the league of extraordinary gentlemen was certain one of the worst movies of the year. i mean really, a movie focusing on a bunch of important literary figures but with no literary value? it could have been good if it had a plot instead of just a bunch of stupid action scenes thrown together. and what the hell was with the giant submarine in the waterways of venice? talk about ridiculous! i felt ashamed to walk out of the theatre. what if someone realized that i had just see “the league of ewxtraordinary gentlemen”? i would be a laughing stock!
