A Sunday for the Lambs
Okay, not such a good start for my first blog... Internet Explorer crashed while I was surfing ESPN.com, and just when I was about to finish my first entry.
Anyway, I get to sleep late tonight since its Bonifacio Day tomorrow, or at least the government moved it to tommorow to give the public a long weekend. :) I just basically wasted the weekend by just bumming around the house and doing absolutely nothing productive.
Second night in a row that I decided to take a dive into the DVD collection and pick out some great classics. Yesterday it was Saving Private Ryan; tonight I went further back and settled for The Silence of the Lambs. No doubt one of the best films ever, you got to admire the acting put in by Anthony Hopkins as the crazed cannibal psychiatrist Hannibal Lector. What is incredible here is that what truly makes him frightening is not that this guy is a cannibal, but that he is a cannibal with a cool and calculating mind. I just love the way he acted like he was having a seizure to get him into that ambulance. Of course, there was also Jodie Foster doing a great role as Clarice Sterling. The only bad thing about the movie was the ending. I felt it was stupid for Buffalo Bill to get shot at... he should have used a blunt instrument instead and whacked Clarice to death. Pretty stupid if you ask me.
Afterwards I caught the replay of the final few rounds of the Barrera-Morales Fight which I missed earlier in the day. Amazing fight, and although Barrera ended up winning the bout, both fighters really fought well today... It could have gone either way. Morales just looked a bit more beaten up because his right eye began swelling. But talk about disrespect, this was the first time I saw two fighters nearly fighting again after the match. Apparently Barrera was going to shake Morales' hand when Morales threw some water at Barrera's father. I guess these guys have a genuine dislike of one another. Anyway, I think that a Barrera-Pacquiao rematch will be in the books soon. Forget about his match with Fasham, it's a sure win anyway. I'd like to see some other quality opponent for Pacquiao's next opponent. It's definitely gotta be Barrera, Marquez or Morales.
Finally, got to start listening to that Collective Soul discography I got from the edonkey network. I'm digging up lots of those old stuff that I like. So far, it has been The World I Know, December, Precious Declaration, Run, Shine, Listen, Maybe, Full Circle, Blame and Gel on my favorites list. But that's just half of the list, so I still got a lot of listening to do.
