I know I often joke about it, and often I will pretend that it is actually happening, before rambling on like any other normal day. But today, this time for sure – it is true - I got nothin’.

Absolutely doodly-squat.

We returned from the States late the night before, and had to play ketchup (whoops – sorry…catch-up) yesterday, plus I had a column deadline, so I don’t even have any amusing left-over stories from our trip across the border.

We did watch a couple of TV shows which I had taped while we were away (Brothers & Sisters for Mrs. That Dan Guy, Corner Gas for both of us), so not much to report even on that front.

Hey, wait a minute!

We also watched “In Bruges”, the movie that recently won actor Colin Farrell a Golden Globe – and well-earned I must add, after seeing the movie.

The storyline of the film is that of a couple of hit men sent to Bruges (Belgium I think, I’m really not much of a details person), to perform a hit, which goes badly. The balance of the story arcs over the consequences and includes exceptional performances from Farrell’s co-star, and a mid-film appearance by Ralph Fiennes, who almost steals the show. What a great movie, and despite the constant grumblings of the characters over the city they have been dispatched to, the film is a loving and compelling travelogue of a spectacularly beautiful European city (Belgium is in Europe, right??).

Nice to see such a commanding performance by Colin Farrell, who in many respects I have often been compared to over the years (I have frequently suggested that I am the Irish Brad Pitt, which is actually a bit odd the more I think of it, not even being Irish. Ah well, it’s never stuck anyhow).

Anyway, the film is called “In Bruges”, and it is well worth seeking out.

Sorry that I had nothing today – I’ll try and jot down a few notes for tomorrow morning.

Chow for now!!
