Stoner Cinema

So tonight was a total stoner's dream...if only I were stoned.

I met up with a buddy quickly for a drink after work, and then it started pouring on the way across the river to get to the car, and I believe my taint was the only dry spot on me. Seriously? Torrential downpours? Seriously!? (That's not the stoner part)

Then we made a plan out of freebies and cheapies tonight. First we hit up ye old Cheesecake Factory. In honor of their 30th birthday, they were giving out cheesecake at 1978 prices. First of all, you had me at "cheesecake". Especially the Chocolate Tuxedo Cheesecake:


NOM!

Even more delicious was that all of the cheesecake was $1.50. The place was still packed 3 hours later when we left the Southside Works.



Then, we walked across the street to the movie theater to watch a free preview of Pineapple Express. This is the latest movie from the guys who brought you Knocked Up and Superbad. Basically it's a Cheech and Chong's / Wayne's World / Steven Segal inspired dope fest. The acting wasn't bad and the story not too full of holes. I think the best part was the cast: Seth Rogan, James Franco, Mr. Lumberg, Rosie Perez, and a couple of cameos including a foul-mouthed Ed Begley Jr.. Yeah, great cinema...if you are high as a kite (as most of the audience was). It did give me a good laugh, but I wouldn't pay to see it...definitely a rental.
