Movie Review The Hammer

The Hammer is Adam Corolla's latest venture. I went to see it this weekend and I really liked it. It is an independent film about Friendship,Loyalty,Going after your dream and of course love. Adam Plays Jerry Fero a 40 year old who used to be a golden glove and promising boxer. Jerry gave up his dream and bounced from job to job with his buddy Oswaldo Sanchez. Jerry also teaches boxing classes to make some extra cash. Jerry meets 2 people in the gym who will change his life forever. Adam used his own money and did a great job on the film. A Feel good and must see film. A huge success for the independent film world. The film is funny and full of life. At the end of the day I give it two BIG TOWS up.

Day 2 of new job

Well today is day 2 of training on my new job. Day one was going great. First my co worker left his notebook on the hood of the car and it blew off as soon as we got some speed up and had to stop and pick up papers in the middle of the street. Later on that evening the three of us( MY supervisor another trainee and I)got pulled over by the Highway Patrol on the 5 freeway in Valencia. The officer said I was doing 80 which is BS. Of course I had to be the one driving its Murphy's law. I was doing 70 and had just looked at my speedo but 70 in still 5 miles over the limit so I admit I was speeding but damn it I was not doing 80. 70 or 80 still doesn't matter its still a ticket. We all had a good laugh at my expense. The rest of the night was good and no more incidents. The other trainee is driving today so I got a one day reprieve. I hope Murphy is asleep tonight.

Watching the night sky

I am a sky watcher and love meteor showers and shooting star as well as satellite sightings.

Here is the next few days for Burbank CA.
The Genesis 1 and 2 description.
Genesis 1
BRIGHTNESS: visual magnitude 3 (dim but visible)
Genesis 1 is a prototype space hotel room -- no kidding! Genesis was launched by Bigelow Aerospace as a test to see if inflatable satellites can be orbited and eventually connected together to create a sprawling space hotel. There are currently two modules in orbit: Genesis 1 and Genesis 2. Both modules are faint, they shine like 4th magnitude stars, but they are easy to notice with the unaided eye because of their motion across the sky. For more information visit the Bigelow Aerospace web site.
Jules Verne description
Jules verne
BRIGHTNESS: visual magnitude 1 (easy to see)
On March 9, 2008, Europe put a new spaceship in Earth orbit--the Jules Verne. Also known as the ATV (short for "automated transfer vehicle"), Jules Verne is an unmanned, robotic spaceship able to carry almost 8 tons of equipment and supplies to the International Space Station (ISS). This is its maiden voyage. For the next few weeks, Jules Verne will perform a series of test maneuvers in Earth orbit, approaching and following the ISS and finally docking with the station after space shuttle Endeavour departs on March 25th.

Great Day

I got up and took my old uniforms in and signed out of my old job. I was supposed to start my new job today but things on there end got fowled up and I will start on wed.
Two more days off and I am not complaining. It looks like my schedule will be Wednesday to Sunday but who knows. I vacuumed the Apt. and took my dad to lunch. I ran the 6pm for Big Joe. After the 6 pm I took my dad to dinner @ Red Lobster in Monrovia. The food was excellent.
I had a gift card a friend gave me so we had and expensive meal for half the price and loved every minute of it. My eyes are closing as I type so I am off to bed.
When you do the right thing you get the right results and what is supposed to be will be with or with out me.

Never made it fishing, 21 movie review & Astro Burgers

Went to see the movie 21 and tripped around Hollywierd. We ate at Astro burger on Santa Monica Blvd, watched the hookers (tranies) and walked all around Hollywood and Highland. I love the hamburgers and pastrami sandwiches at Astro. Click the link to read a review of the place. Man a lot of pot smoking going on in the streets of Hollywood and the cops are oblivious to it or really don't care. The movie was good and Kate Bosworth is a cutie and Kevin Spacey is always ausome. Jim Sturgess is the kid that plays Ben Campbell and is very talented and believable in the movie . By the time we got back from the movie it was 2 am and we were all tired so next time we will go fishing.
