Book of Eli, Big Monday



Crazy weekend... but fun.

We bought some new furniture for the house at Nebraska Furniture Mart (don't worry, Neuty, it's getting delivered), which is exciting. I went and saw "Book of Eli" and it was AWESOME... the two football games were fun, especially the Saints/Vikes game. (My Dad would have loved that game -- he was a Drew Brees fan because Brees went to Purdue... and because he whooped KSU in whatever bowl game that was, too.)

Seriously, you should go see Book of Eli. Excellent movie, beginning to end. It's a post-apocalyptic story that follows Eli (Denzel Washington) as he walks across the United States with what might be the last copy of the Bible in existence. A voice told him to keep walking west.... Of course, along the way, he runs into trouble -- cannibals, thieves, Gary Oldman.

The movie makes you think. Great message throughout the film. And the ending was awesome.

BIG MONDAY tonight... exciting. Can't wait for the beat-down we're going to give Mizzou!

Here's a photo of Evey and Sadie at Allen Fieldhouse the other day... we went to the KU/Mizzou women's game... Evey had an awesome time.

Probably won't go to the theater to see it, but Eli sounds cool the more I hear about it. We SHOULD beat Mizzou tonight, but it's a matter of which team shows up in the first ten minutes. If we run, it'll be great and probably close. If they come out lackluster it'll be frustrating and exciting in the second half as we get close and then lose.

But don't hold me to that.
