Air Puffer Machine, Movies, Trivia

Air Puffer
I got to go through the air puffer machine again at DEN. I’m totally saving up for my own. I didn’t realize they would be 3 million dollars, but I’ll just have to save for a little longer than I was planning. Although for that amount, I could get a REAL massage every single day for the next 136 years. So maybe I’ll just stick with the regular massages.

Anyway – my car’s Air Conditioner is on the fritz and today was about 90 degrees in Denver. So…..my drive to the airport was less than comfortable. I had the windows open for most of it, but then my boss called and I had to roll them up for about 15 minutes while we chatted, and I swear I nearly had a heart attack it was so hot in there. When I arrived at the airport, it looked like I had just taken a shower. NOT attractive.

Movies
I saw ‘Fracture’ this weekend by myself while waiting for Catherine & Phil to meet me up in Keystone (I was up visiting Karee…who was there for a work conference). The movie was EXCELLENT and I highly recommend it. Ryan Gosling is great in it, and Anthony Hopkins is just as creepy as ever. I really like seeing movies alone….although this one was definitely a little ‘scarier’ than my usual. As most of you know, I’m afraid of basically everything, and I do not see scary movies…but this was a legal thriller, so it was ok. But you’d basically have to drug me and kidnap me if you wanted me to sit through “Saw” or “Hostel” or one of those types of movies. I really wanted to see ‘In the Land of Women’, but it wasn’t on during the time it needed to be. Anyway – if anyone has seen it, I would like your review J and….Karee and I happened to catch “High School Musical” on Friday night, which I had heard lots about, but hadn’t seen. So we regressed about 10 years and watched. And it was ADORABLE. And the best part was, it was a special on the Disney channel where they had replaced all the commercials (yay) with an instructional ‘dance-a-long’ starring all the kids from the movie. So basically every 15 minutes, there would be a 5 minute segment where they would teach you all the moves to the dances in the movie. All leading up to (of Course) the grand dance finale in the school gym. The 2 main characters (who are totally cute) are totally in love with each other, and Karee and I were betting during the whole movie if they were going to kiss at the end. I thought they would HAVE to….since the movie basically tells you they’re soul mates. Karee said ‘no way they’ll kiss…its Disney”. Anyway – for those of you who are curious, they do NOT share a special smooch at the end…so Karee won that one J

Trivia
So two years ago for Christmas, I received one of those ‘page-a-day’ calendars with Trivia for every day. And I took it to work and would play Trivia with my cube mate every day. We got ridiculously competitive and ended up going through the whole calendar by like….May. So we bought another one (from another year….purchased on eBay) and continued. Then we made it more complicated by introducing the concept of ‘wagering’ your bet before you answer. Like Jeopardy…so you could easily get way ahead or way behind. So…at the end of the year, we had done something like 700 trivia questions and I ended up winning by only ONE point, which I just think is totally bizarre. We were pretty evenly matched at trivia. And yes, everyone else at work thought we were the biggest nerds. Whatever. Ok so here is some good trivia that you guys can play. Don’t cheat!

What percentage of the total mass of our Solar System does the Sun comprise?
What percentage of the world speaks Spanish as their first language?
What is the capitol of Mongolia?
What country uses the largest form of currency (I mean…physically size-wise, not value-wise)?
Who is the person with the most Academy Award wins? How many?
What percentage of the world's fresh water is in the Great Lakes?

Good luck! I’ll post the answers tomorrow!!!
