Quality Time With the Wife

After watching District 9 and Mongol, I owed my wife a solid chick flick. I made sure the movie at the top of our queue was The Proposal. I like Sandra Bullock, so I was OK with watching the movie. Plus, I had my iPhone handy just in case the movie got boring. However, I [...]
