Lessons in Being a Boss with John Carpenter

This is how you win Who Wants to be a Millionaire when your a total fucking badass
Also, Regis Philbin is my idol. (Well, one of, along with Alex Trebek and Pat Sajak)

Monday Music - Lupe Fiasco "Words I Never Said" and "Daydreamin"

I just downloaded Lupe Fiasco's "Lasers", and I gotta say, it's pretty solid. I should have expected good things after enjoying Food and Liquor and The Cool, but I was still impressed by how much I liked the album after listening through it. I gotta get a few more listens in before I can decide what my favorite songs are, but I saw Words I Never Said on the Colbert Report and it was awesome. If you haven't heard any Lupe before, I strongly recommend checking out more of his songs - he's pretty fucking good.

Plans for the day

Starting LA Noire today - hopefully will have a review up at the end of the week. I've heard good things, and Rockstar generally delivers, so I'm pretty excited.

Armchair Matchmaker - UFC 130

 This is probably the fastest I've ever had a matchmaker post up. Fuck I'm awesome. Anyways, fights were ok, seen better cards before, but I've also seen worse. Too many decisions.

Cut List - Rafaello Oliveira, Kendall Grove

Rampage Jackson vs the winner of Shogun Rua v Forrest Griffin
Even though he didn't get a finish, Rampage still looked very good in defeating Matt Hamill. Going forward, Rampage is likely one fight away from a title shot, and a fight against either Rua or Griffin would both push him towards a title shot, as well as be a shot for redemption (Rampage holds losses to both guys). Had he finished Hamill, he could have secured a title shot, but with the title held up for the next while, a fight against either Rua or Griffin would solidify a title shot (the same goes for either Rua or Griffin - if they win they would also likely get a shot).

Funny Business

Just Zack Galifinakis and Will Ferrell being awesome. Nuff said.

Summer Movie Review - True Grit

Going in, I kinda thought I was gonna be bored watching the movie, but I was wrong. True Grit was pretty fucking good. I should have expected good things after No Country for Old Men, but the Coen Brothers sure know how to make a good movie. Jeff Bridges was pretty badass, and he had some good chirps for Matt Damon. Definitely recommend checking this one out

Best Part - The crazy bear guy, if only because he made little sense in the context of the movie and needed to be on drugs in order to be explained.

Rating - 4.5./5
