So as a gag my mom picked up a few of those terrible tabloid magazines today and I can’t believe some of the stuff they write about. “Doc Warns Dr, Phil; ‘You’re Going to Die'” “Farrah Fawcett: Weeks to Live” Now I don’t know any of these celebrities personally but c’mon “weeks to live?” If a celebrity was going to die any day now wouldn’t we hear about on the news? It’s not really giving yourself much elbow room if you’re wrong either. I see it all the time, they just lie and make all sorts of shit up and people still buy it. It isn’t the first time I’ve seen this either, I remember seeing “Bob Hope’s Last Days” a good 4 years before he died, the same goes for Jack Lemmon. I mean sure they died but it certainly wasn’t their “Last Days” when these articles were written. Yet these magazine keep on selling. I guess I don’t understand the fascination for any tidbit that “might” be true about a celebrity. I like them for their work, not their personal lives. For instance, it would certainly appear that Mel Gibson’s got some major issues but that doesn’t mean I’m going to stop seeing his movies. Celebrities are just rich people why should anyone be care if they hear “Is Nicole Richie Going to Have a Panic Attack” or “Zac Efron: Gay?” Hopefully they just think it’s a big joke like me, but I’m sure there is a fair share of people who take it seriously as well.

So that’s it, thought I’d just write anything I could think of for this Friday post. See you all at “Be Kind Rewind” and make sure to mourn for Dr. Phil.

Well, I’ve tweaked the site’s design even more, I think it’s looking a lot better.  Was it worth all the work, well, why don’t you tell me?

Took a lot of work, still not perfect. ‘Nuff said.

Finally, this drawn-out, pointless conflict has come to an end. No, not the War on Terror, or any of the other really important battles being fought right now. I’m talking about the High Definition DVD war. Today Toshiba finally conceded the battle; HD-DVD has died at the feet of BluRay.

Since the death of Heath Ledger “The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus” has been thrown into obscurity, but according to many sources, it is possible that Ledger’s final role will be completed by three other actors playing transformations of Ledger’s character.

Colin Farrel, Jude Law, and Johnny Depp have reportedly signed on to be in the film with a release date set for 2009. I like the idea and look forward to Gilliam’s film. Also, this is the first collaboration with Gilliam and screenwriter Charles Mckeown since The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. Additionally, they worked together on the screenplay for Brazil.

I look forward to the new additions. Johnny Depp is always welcome when it comes to weird projects, and you just don’t get enough Jude Law these days. A lot of people give Colin Farrell a hard time for some poor career decisions but I think he’s a great actor. I’m looking forward to seeing them all work with Gilliam.

I guess my first blog entry will be about something pretty insignificant. Well, I was playing rock band on just guitar today at Sean’s today and I noticed that you can just play the entire songs on the solo buttons (but you can’t tap the whole song). I guess I’m just curious as to whether Sean had already brought attention to this fact, or if I’m the first to discover it, ’cause I think it does make the game slightly easier even if it doesn’t quite feel right playing the whole songs up there.
