Maybe it’s the inner alpha male in me, but can’t help the fact that I love Bond movies.

I didn’t mind the original Bourne trilogy, but I’m not going to lie the latest one with Renner and Norton headlining looks very promising.  Then again, I am biased towards every movie that Ed Norton is in.  Have I mention how amazing of an actor this man is?

In less than 3 short months, I will finally be going to three countries that I have always wanted to go.  I will be flying to Dublin and will get to see the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland before flying over to Scotland.  I may head down to England if I can afford it.  But for now, it is time to hide out in my apartment and not spending any money as I continue to save and plan the trip of a lifetime.

This show is quickly becoming one of my favourites.  It may be because I have been public servant for almost 3 years now.  Ron Swanson is the perfect anti-government conservative and has many of the show’s laughs.  Not to be outdone, Andy and Tom also deliver some great moments.  And Leslie is quite the awkward, eager over-achiever that propels the show similar to Michael Scott in The Office.  Rating: 8.5/10

This man is nothing but class.  Beautiful speech for a wonderful man and actor.

“ So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

So, season 7 of one of my favourite TV shows is in the books.  However, I’m on the fence about this season.  There were too many filler episodes and focusing too much on Marshall and Lilly and even how evolved Barney has become.  I also didn’t like the fact that the played with the Ted and Robin storyline again.  And the predictable last shot of the season finale was so anti-climatic that wasn’t funny.  Don’t get me wrong — there were some more great moments in this season, especially with the new addition.  I am really hoping the writers get back on track in season 8 and make it their last season and the end it with the reveal of the mother.  Honestly, as much as I love this show, it has been dragged out way too long and needs to come back stronger and more focused in what should be its last season.
