Speed and Angels

I watched a documentary called Speed and Angels about 2 of the last F-14 Tomcat pilots on duty before it got officially decommissioned.  It takes you through their lives as they try to make it as F-14 Naval pilots. Jay  “Faceshot” and Meagan “Slick” go through tough times; Meagan as she is trying to be the first female Naval F-14 pilot and at the same time the last. And Jay trying to overcome adversity in his life before joining the Navy. A must for every fighter plane fan or Top Gun fan.

The movie has some amazing plane scenes including dogfights and combat, as well as real footage of some of their missions.

A funny trailer from the movie can be seen here.

HTC Hero – Review

Now that I had my Hero for 2 weeks, I can start blabbering about it.

let me start with this, I had very high hopes for the device before it got released. I wanted a device that could do things the iPhone couldn’t do. The android platform didn’t disappoint.

Hai Bali

I never thought one day that I’ll go to Bali, not because that I didn’t want to but didn’t feel the need to do it since I already explored most of southeast Asia. But when you have a free one … hey why not :). So I packed my bags and decided to go, and with all the problems I faced before leaving (ticketing issues and even a bruised 5^th metatarsal) I wasn’t going to miss such an opportunity.

Boston Legal – Review

After being in bed for 2 days, and having a ton of TV shows to be up-to-date with. I decided to put my back into it and finish the rest of “Boston Legal”.

William Shatner (Denny Crane) and James Spader (Alan Shore) are the dynamic duo in the US legal system, well, Denny has Mad Cow/Alzheimer and always doing stupid stuff and Alan, being his best friend, always got his back. I really liked how they take a real problem and twist it into a hilarious case.

Too bad it’s only 5 seasons, This may well be the funniest show I’ve watched. And you don’t need a sick sense of humor to enjoy it.
