Gang-alogy

Being in a gang like the Crips or Bloods, underneath the obvious activites: A group of people who all roll together and get up to 'mischief' for use of a better word. They have a plethora of ladies, well using a loose definition of the word ladies, a more accurate term maybe bitches. This reminds of a gang I had an affiliation with:

'Team Win' - As a group they got drunk a lot. We had lots of fun probably because we were out a lot: 6 times a week sometimes! We even had a load of ladies who used to hang out with us, and we called them the 'Team Win bitches'. I say, we called them, they called themselves the Team Win bitches! *playa hi5* no? Just me ? Ok, swiftly moving on...

Life of Pi Review

I went to watch 'The life of Pi' but this story doesn't start there: I told my colleagues at work, one who got to watch a pre-preview showing courtesy of Fox studios and he compared it to Avatar in terms of a visual experience. I became excited, as Avatar was a movie I truly enjoyed watching. Like porn: I don't remember the story but I remember I couldn't take my eyes off it. This excitement soon wore off when he told me that most of the film revolved around a boy, a tiger and the sea. What? That sounds boring I stated, I don't care how blue the sea is or how High Definition the tiger is. My excitement wore off, how many fun things can a boy, a tiger and a boat get up to in the sea? But then again how much fun do plumbers and teachers in classrooms and bathrooms have in porn?


The movie

It was a real 'pretty movie': a visual masterpiece. The tiger and the boys interplay was visually astounding. I felt the fear and exhilaration where I believe I should have, because of how realistic the tigers anger, desperation and fear was. I'm not sure if they used CGI but it seemed so realistic.
