I finally saw Apocalypto

I am sure there is a list of things to say about Mel Gibson.

On that list better be the fact that he can direct one hell of an action movie.

Wanted: Nemesis

I've been trying to think of ways to spice up my life. I'm 36 years old, happily married with two kids and I have a job that pays the bills.
But something is missing.
I feel like I'm old before my time. I need to inject some excitement into my daily routine before its too late and I find myself unable to become excited at all. I need a challenge, something to get the adrenaline pumping again. Sure, an addiction would fit the bill, but, it is a little late for me to be "experimenting" with drugs and it is just not my style.
What I need is a nemesis.
I need someone to steal my parking space, knock my coffee over, trip me when I'm running to catch the train and occasionally exclaim: "Ahha, we meet again." That sort of thing. Just keep me on my toes as complacency will be the death of me.
As my potential nemesis, you will need to have an evil streak and be blessed with innate guile, cunning and manic dedication to thwarting my daily efforts. Mercilessness is a plus, especially if you have adopted it as a cognomen, e.g., "Mike the Merciless." Further, if you choose the "hands on" approach, hand-to-hand combat skills are a must. Evil laugh mandatory, British accent preferred.
Send me a photo and a brief explanation why you would be a good nemesis.
