Saw

I never thought I'd be giving a compliment to a Saw film, but I'm about to. Before I do, I just want to say that I don't hate the Saw series, it's just it has gone beyond its sell by date now and what was interesting and unique the first two times has now become standard. All the plot twists are quite easy to spot now, especially my favourite: "If Jigsaw or whoever is on the tape tells you to do something, try bloody LISTENING to them!" So anyway, as I was about to say, the compliment I bestow upon Saw V is this; it is the only film I know at the moment that has managed to properly integrate a real mobile phone technique into a plot. It's so simple too. Here's what happens, basically this bad guy, steals the good guys phone and rings the police chief with it, then quickly ends the call before he can pick up. The Police chief sees good guy has rung him, and calls back, only by now the bad guy has turned the phone off. Police chief gets voicemail, and tries to trace him. Bad guy puts phone in an incriminating position then turns phone on again, Police chief tracks it down, good guy gets framed! Simple, but believable. Well done.

Today I went bowling, and discovered how bad I can be. I swear there is a rule though that means you can only do well after one game has passed, thus making it the practice round. It happens to me all the time; do crap the first time, do well the second time. Also, if you've gotten bored of regular bowling, try speed or blind bowling by either bowling each ball as quickly after the last as possible or by setting yourself up for a shot but then closing your eyes for the roll. If that's still not boring enough, try combining the two. Just be careful you don't damage the pin guarding barrier.
