Two Comments About Anger Management

Alfred Lerner Hall; Photo - Columbia University I saw Anger Management the other night and while it's incredibly stupid, there were two things that brought down the house for me:

- There's a plot point where Jack Nicholson's character's mother is having surgery in Boston. Jack and Adam take a road trip from New York to Boston, finding themselves at Boston Country General - which happens to be set at 114th Street and Broadway in Manhattan: The exteriors were shot at Columbia's Lerner Hall. I laughed and laughed and laughed, causing people to wonder who the crazy girl laughing at absolutely nothing was.

- Adam Sandler's character works for a pet accessories company and designs clothing for overweight, "husky," cats. There is a fat cat in the movie (though it's unclear if it's a truly fat cat or a cat wearing a fat suit), and that was my favorite part of the movie. How to tell if your cat is fat.

Awww...your cat sounds so cute, even if it is chunky. The cat at the pet store in Park Slope, Fluffy, was basically the size of a bed pillow, and Molly and I would look for it at the store. Fluffy would usually be lounging on bags of cat food, as it rarely moved around. So Eve sounds svelte comparatively.

Thanks for the cat link. My cat eve has recently become fatter than a football (not that I noticed much until a friend pointed it out)and I think I'm a little embarrassed about it. I guess it's a common problem.
