Sounds like you had a great time. My Saturday was initiated by waking up at 8:00 to service a dude's aquarium, which was kind of fun. Then I had to go out on another service call and set up a 75 gallon tank. I had the rest of the day to see the Festival of the Arts and buy books.
Sunday I worked at building a huge cage for a snake, then got called in to work because one guy called in "sick" and our cashier had to go to the hospital.
All in all, a pretty boring-ass weekend. BUT! I did watch "They Live!" last night, which is a pretty campy but fun movie.
Oh my god, They Live! I was convinced to watch the thing because of the 10 minute long fight scene. And any movie that non-ironically includes magical sunglasses is gold.
Yeah, the sunglasses are great - nothing tops the fight scene, though. Originally it was supposed to have lasted only 20 seconds, but Roddy Piper and and Keith David rehearsed a much longer fight scene for three weeks and then pitched it to Carpenter, who apparently liked it so much he left the whole damn thing in the film.
Also, according to IMDB only the head and nut shots are faked; all other hits actually landed - even the suplexes and drops. I guess that's what happens when you bring a wrestler to a movie.
