xiphiasFirst: Bend It Like Beckham is a really fun movie. Everyone should go see it, whether or not they're British, play soccer/football, or are Indian.
Second: when we got home, Lis mentioned that she really wanted something fruit punch-like to drink, and consdiered sending me out to the store for some.
I said, "Wait a minute," and mixed pinapple juice, orange juice, lemon juice, sugar, Malibu, Triple Sec, Marischino liqueur, strawberry schnapps, U-Bet black cherry syrup, Kedem raspberry syrup, grenadine, and Sprite. Basically, I shook all but the Sprite, poured into a highball glass, and topped off with Sprite.
Lis rather liked it. I think it would have been a bit better had we had sloe gin, but this was good.
Third: Lis rented a Saturday Night Live videotape, because she claimed that the show had once been funny, and I didn't believe her.
You have to remember that the show stopped being funny in, like, 1980 or so. When I was six years old. It apparently has had funny seasons and casts since then, but I became aware of the show during The Suckful Years, and hence, have always reacted with skepticism to claims that the show was once funny. But, in fact, it was.
