Dane Cook dished out a great stand-up in Chicago

If you like stand-up comedy, you already know comedian Dane Cook.  Ever since, I've watched his HBO special, I really wanted to see him performing life.  Guess what?  My wife surprised me with tickets to Chicago Theatre for one, and only Dane Cook show in Chicago, this past Sunday.

Dane Cook delivered!  He's new material called "Under Oath" was witty, funny, with great punch lines, and of course easily applicable in a relationship.  

I won't give up his jokes but one thing is certain,  he'll make a lot of people laugh.

After the show, Dane came out to sign autographs and take pictures.  There was about 100 people waiting for him and everyone got a chance to talk to him and have a great memento.

If you have a chance to see Dane Cook live, go for it, it's worth it.

Awesomeness: Men In Black 3

Yes, Men In Black 3 is that good - total Awesomeness!  We went to see the third part of the popular flick with mixed expectations fueled by many other mediocre sequels and prequels.  To our amazement, the MIB3 was funny, witty, and above all, it had a surprising finale.  The director, Barry Sonnenfeld, created a solid entertainment piece. 

Will Smith was hilarious as Agent J, who travels back to 1960s to stop a nasty alien from killing his partner Agent K, played by Tommy Lee Jones.  Josh Brolin played the young Agent K, and he was right on the money impersonating facial expressions and a voice of Tommy Lee Jones.

Not to give up too much: there is a lunar prison base, cool blasters, new alien forms, one-wheeler motorcycles, time travel, and, oh yes, the jokes!

The right amount of special effects and a very crafty story line, made MIB3 a fantastic choice for a whole family enjoyment.  The movie is rated PG-13 but younger kids should be just fine.  If you haven't seen it yet - I strongly recommend it.
