Ernie Nevers

#2891 in the never ending story 

Say what >

A football player in the NFL scored 6 rushing TD s. Tying a record by Ernie Nevers

our weather will be up and down meaning both temperatures and precipitation for say a week. Predicted reading for today says 34 ish F.

Skipped over to CBC on line and did a quick run through - nada. Same old same old. Oh, different date

There was a Dutch Queen Wilhelmina, 

Summary : coffee in hand , sitting and typing < yes, there is Bailey s in the coffee >

On Xmas day, ' Wonderwoman 1984 ' opened in theatres. The reviews are mixed. One critic said that for a super hero type movie ' there wasn't much of a super hero to see '. I believe he thought more of ' wonderwoman ' in full battle dress was needed. Me. I think just looking at Gal Gadot is good enough. 

Overall, DC comics has garnered a reputation for doing spandex action movies - poorly. To be fair, Marvel has pretty much run out of creativity at this point. As far as I know or can tell ' Guardians of the Galaxy ' rather summed up the whole genre for Marvel.

Captain Marvel was average - y. Now, I thought the Brie Larson < Capt Mar - velle > sassy amnesiac was cute. And the by - play between Cpt Mar - velle and Fury was attention grabbing. But see, thats not the ' knock - em down spandex ' part of the movie either

Guardians was a retro music festival -  see not spandex super hero fight - y stuff - again. Thinking back - ' Dr Strange ' just might of been the mountain top. Wonderwoman was planting the flag, and Cpt Marvel was circling the top.

BTW, by accident, I got to watch ' King Kong ' w/ Brie Larson again. Cpt Marvel was a better movie for her. She had Samuel L for help in that one also. < no where near the same though >

Well, sun up in 20 minutes. But the Xmas tree beaacon is lit. You do know - that out front it can't be seen for 1/2 mile like it was in the backyard. However, I deemed that portability was a real plus for the Xmas tree. And of course, it was showing off to the neighbour s who have a ' zoo ' on their lawn in lights

In the back of my mind is a thought to turn the Xmas tree into a ball and have it descend from DE 29 to JA 1 down the pole.    

We shall see said the Zen Master

Out in the driveway, shovelling the margins to take back the whole driveway
