   football - Both the Carolina Panthers and the 49ers choked in important   
   games they should have/had to win.  :/  (The Panthers got lucky in   
   today's results. The 49ers not so much...)   
      
   Strange Brew (I think was free on Prime in Dec. but we had to rent it   
   off Prime last night so I guess it was not longer free in January...) -   
   1983 classic "Canadian content" comedy starring Rick Moranis and Dave   
   Thomas. Originating as a series of sketches on the famous SCTV sketch   
   comedy show in 1980, Moranis and Thomas got a movie out of it in 1983   
   (ob. "Return of the Jedi" reference included!).   
       The movie has to be seen to be believed. Its "plot" really can't be   
   described (it does involve a beer brewery, 'natch!) but is amusing in   
   its outrageousness, and for the novelty of being not just filmed but   
   *set* in Toronto! I also liked the number of Canadian character actors   
   that popped up in it.   
      
   What did you watch?
