Last Sunday tried the new sushi restaurant on 7th called Fune. Excellent sushi-on-a-conveyor-belt and good wines. I'm not hip enough, but they'll just have to get used to me.
Friday was The Crazies! on TiVo--I like me some B-movie--and then re-watched Eternal Sunshine. That's definitely in my top 10, and re-watching brought back some swell but forgotten details that I won't spoil here. I had recently passed it around to co-workers, and from our discussions I got the itch to see it again.
Saturday was goofin' off over at Alicia and Dan's after they and the wife and others drank all day watching some sort of sporting event that was happening in Atlanta. We ended the evening with the Borat movie. 3/5 with many laughs. I don't know how he survived some of those skits. Not the least of which the naked wrestling, although I heard that the rodeo was a narrow escape.
Lisa's in Tulsa till Tuesday (hey, it's a Nora Ephron novel!) so I'll be bachelorin' it and will probably be quite stir crazy by then.
He was on Fresh Aire with Terri Gross last Friday evening (he apparently rarely does interviews.)
Listening to him out-of-character almost threw me as much as Borat's character.

Posted by: Mason at April 2, 2007 09:23 AMI was expecting it to be a painful movie, but it was definitely more easy going than say a jackass movie or something like that. He brings a funny performance art quality into comedy where Andy Kaufman was just performancy performance art.
It being Borat.
