It's great the other way round though.:)

Absolutely - Once a month I do 8-5 but 8-4 on Friday which means leaving first out of the whole office on a Friday. It's sweet.

I fear I may actually cry today though. First week back after the hols so really just want to get the week over.

I must have missed the fact that you got a job - last I remember you were made redundant? Fair play - back in the same place or new place?

Weekend plans:

Poker tonight with the lads. Clean the house before the 'rents come back form holidays. :mad:

Tomorrow, sulk in a depression as Newcastle slump to a 5th consecutative defeat.:( Maybe have a in the hours after, to cheer me up. Pints may then be consumed in the late hours depending on who's around.

Sunday, more with football squeezed in during the interim periods.

Did you see Stepbrothers, its alot better than his last few poor attempts of comedy. Anchorman will still rule all though.

+1 on that. He has to be the most over-rated actor going. His support seems to be more of a blind fad worship, like the Hoff, rather than any actual acknowledgment that he is a funny bastard.

Even if you have already seen them numerous times, rent out any of the Back To The Future movies (all 3 for an epic marathon). I can still watch any one of them, and be highly entertained.

Ferrell is at his best as a supporting actor. he cant carry a movie. My favourite role for his was Frank the Tank as he was relateable. I know many many Frank the Tanks.

No I have given up on him unless he's a supporting actor.

Good call on Back to Future, classics.

I was in xtravision 2 weeks ago and saw this film about this guy who fell in love with an inflatable doll. Sounded really funny, didnt rent it out though, got 21 instread, might try it tonight, just cant think of the name of it though! Oh and I didnt see it in the Adult section of xtravision either before anyone says! :pac:

Now thats just wrong.

Nah Anchorman was an epic win, but the problem is every film since has relied on the same tired formula which means that I probably wont enjoy Anchorman as much next time I watch it. Fcuk you Ferrell!

Xavi6

Sorry but I just didn't laugh once during it.

Now 'A Night At The Roxbury' is quality......

+ 1 but even that is flawed cos the SNL skits were funnier when Jim Carey was in them!


However, the film is extra good...maybe cos Ferrell isnt trying so hard.

Mr Alan

Will Ferrell has his moments tbh. Anchorman is awesome. As is Old School. His cameo in Wedding Crashers is good too. Stranger Than Fiction is a ****ing marvellous film too. The bloke definately has talent, someone just needs to pull him aside and tell him that shouting doesnt make everything funny.

Xavi6

Yeah 'Stranger Than Fiction' is very good, if only because he actually manages to play a different role.

All very true. His part in Wedding Crashers was hilarious! ''Mom!!! Where's the Meatloaf!!!?''

Thats spot on Al. Watching Talladega Nights you could literally smell the tryhard off the actors. sh1te film.

Jaysis KaG, it's a bit late to be on to me about the team tbh. We have our last friendly on Monday at 8, details in the forum, if you come out and score a hat-trick in ten minutes, you can join up. :pac:

Mr Alan

that scene at the dinner table with the kids, grandfather and wife really does make me laugh in that film i must admit

Dub13

Old School Rocks...

Charlie

The only good thing about Talladega is Leslie Bibb, man she is hot! (NWS, if you work with priests)

@ Alan
Yeah that dinner table bit in WC is class...when the granny is slagging her son for being a queer I was in tears laughing.

I laughed at Blades of Glory. The bit when he is Drunk in the suit and vomits in it made me chuckle.

It's the epic drums that I love in Africa.

It was the soundtrack for many a killing spree in Vice City.

Necronomicon
