Your sundays casual, well I wish it was my Sunday's casual. I've never been a fan of Swiss Army but this watch caught me by surprise. Fell in love with it at first sight not many watches now a days can maintain that simplicity of being a vintage with modern amenities. It's a Victorinox with the green face and the smooth stitched brown leather makes for a perfect casual watch to last you a lifetime. Your definately going to want to roll up your sleeves to show off that green face off found it here on Swiss for $395

Unfortunately for Chile another devastating earthquake has destroyed much of the infrastructure in Chile's second largest city, Concepcion but the death toll has been in no way comparable close to Haiti's earthquake with over 200,000 people reported dead Chile's death dole is approximately 400 people as of today.

Santiago in Chile


Some of the major differences with this and Haiti is that the city Concepcion has a total of 200,000 something resident and majority of those people were sleeping when the quake hit them around 2 in the morning so most people were thrown from their bed and just experienced heavy shaking. Another major difference with Chile's earthquake is the fact that Chile has experience the largest earthquake known to man with a magnitude of 9.5 in the 1970's and since that the infrastructure in the city's and surrounding city's have been pretty modern so the majority of the damage done from this earthquake has been in the older architecture areas of damages to roads rather than the whole city collapsing.

Movie Review 05: Wrong Turn at Tahoe (2009)

No you never heard of it because it's that bad.

I'm lying. Well just a little, but you really didn't hear of it because it was never released in theaters only to DVD or straight download but it's not a horrible movie just a bad one. It star's Cuba Gooding and Miguel Ferrer, in what's suppose to be a big boss vs. small fry movie but It reminded me of Shotta's the Jamaican film if you watched Shotta's and Scarface then your pretty much going to guess what happens next for the whole film.

Never seen Cuba play such a hardcore role before he definitely does not have the voice for it nor the look but I still have to commend him as he did a pretty good job and kept me entertained. The story is about Cuba being loyal to his ruthless boss, who you find out why in the dead last 5 seconds of the movies. Cuba then gets a hunch that someone wants to kill his boss so when the boss goes to check it out ends up killing "The Donald trump of the crime business" who actually answers to the big boss who was the one who initially wanted to kill him not the employee who he killed. Stupid huh? Can guess what happens? Oh yes your right! lol Don't watch this unless you have nothing else to watch please don't.

My rating 4 out of 10


Me just ranting


What the hell is going on in the states why the hell these stupid celebrities who have no claim to fame other than the fact that their rich decide to steal! Yes steal money from the american consumers and the poorer class people. Personally I think that they did not come up with these ideas themselves, more than likely it's their business managers sit down there and say "Oh shit you guys you have no real talent and your only popular because someone somewhere decided it would be interesting to follow you around with a TV camera and that someone made you famous, so since your famous only for that reason we need to find creative ways to make you money so lets tap into the iTunes world and create some crappy app that the world will buy for $1.99 because your name is on it cause they all love you!" Fuck that!

Thats manipulation which I really don't approve of but I guess I really shouldn't be complaining with the celebrities because they're not doing something completely wrong this is their job "Being Famous" so they need to make money from it right? Well they shouldn't go about it that way exploiting teenagers and girls who love them because of how they dress. Want to know who I'm talking about?

Kim's App and even worst Heidi and Spencer's Apple Application..

Poster children for everything that's wrong with celebrities -



Movie Review 04: The Brothers Bloom (2008)

I thought I saw them all until I saw The Brothers Bloom, by them I mean Con-Artiste movies, this movie which stars Adrien Brody and Rachel Weisz is about two brothers who grew up as orphans going from house to house in their youth until they realized their potential in being professional lairs for money.

The perfect con, one where everyone gets what they want including the person being conned.


The movie has a small cast and what I would consider class C actors still kept me entertained I can feel the director trying very hard to take his film to the next level by trying to introduce some action adventure in this drama/crime movie. The movies plot can be summed up very quickly though without giving away the joy of actually watching it, firstly the brother bloom realized 25 years later after conning people from he was a child that he wants to stop! But Big brother won't allow it so he decided to pull the last con, hopefully for him the ultimate con, by conning little miss heiress of 1 million US, but this is what sets it apart from other movies like this in its class, it makes you wonder what is real from what isn't and you start to question if the brothers are against each other the movie takes you down that adventure to you to places like Berlin, Montenegro, Greece, Prague, New Jersey and even Mexico, I love movies like that.


How can I leave out the Beautiful Bang Bang! Sounds like a Flinstones character right? Well she's the girl in this picture above. Her script for this movie must have been pretty short because she says practically noting for the whole film but she's pretty awesome she's just a new addition to they crew, but plays a nice role and definitely helps add to the action that the director clearly was trying to hard to add to the movie.

Overall it's a great comedy, action, crime, adventure, lying! movie so enjoy! Not in my top 10 but definitely something to kill time to watch.

My ratings 6 out of 10.

This is a picture of the exit ramp at the Vatican museum. This actually is two staircases that have been intertwined with each other for people to get in and out of the stair case, again I have to commend Gandhi, the same Jamaican who took the earlier posts pictures of Jamaica. He is the photographer behind an amazing photograph.
