Who's Hot/Who's Not #1

WHO'S HOT

Ewan McGregor - Moulin Rouge. Need I say more?
Josh Lucas - A younger, hotter Matthew McConaughey (without the Pene baggage) and that Southern drawl... :p~
Thomas Jane - The Punisher. 'Nuff said.
Vin Diesel - But the coolest guy in the world.
Jennifer Aniston - She carried herself with class, grace, and dignity through her husband's very inconsiderate and cruel behaviour. Two thumbs up and hang in there, Jen.
Jennifer Garner - Today's superwoman: beautiful, smart, amazingly fit, red-hot career, and a mom to boot.

WHO'S NOT

Brad Pitt - Acting like a wuss besotted with Angelina Jolie, he has absolutely no regard for his wife's feelings (consider the W shoot and getting photographed with Angelina everywhere). Very not cool, dude.
Angelina Jolie - Stunning, famous, creepy, and troubled, from the looks of it. I'd say she should really know better, but I doubt she does.
Tom Cruise - His star was fading, but now it is plummeting into a black hole. The latest crazies about psychiatry and Katie Holmes are just fake and disturbing.
Katie Holmes - She should really know better. It's gross and really spoiling her image, what's left of it.

Free Katie, demands Hulk

The Free Katie Movement is led by none other than our fave green hero Hulk who states emphatically:

DEAR TOM CRUISE:

You have made Hulk very upset because you have taken that nice little girl Katie Holmes who has not graduated the eighth grade yet and made her into your special friend to take around and you think that gives you the right to act like a monkey on that woman Oprah's show but it does not! Hulk is tired of seeing you and even if Hulk wanted to go see the movie about the War Of The Worlds (GO EARTH! HULK IS IN YOUR CORNER!) before you started acting like Speedball after he's had too many of Iron Man's special grown-up drinks, he does not want to see it now because he is tired of seeing you and he thinks there's a special place for people like you and it was called "Arkham Asylum" in that movie that they made about Batman, which is where Hulk first saw that Katie Holmes that you have kidnapped and brainwashed.

Please let Katie Holmes go, Tom Cruise. You are making Hulk angry and tired and cranky whenever Hulk sees you. You wouldn't like Hulk when he's angry and tired and cranky unless you are the Red Bull Superdrink sales man because then you get all of Hulk's money.

Bye,
Hulk.

Join the Free Katie movement.

One of the Greatest Joys in my Life

Watching my Boy sitting against the wall, licking his own belly, paw on his tummy. :`D

Yesterday and the Day Before

Disgusted with self. Only 50 pushups yesterday before elbow gave way but compensated with 100 crunches. The day before almost as dismal: 70, and 50 crunches. Feel much stronger though. Buffy strong! Beer good. :p Will rest arms today and work on shoulders and tum.

Watched Fantastic Four last night. It was fantastic! :D A tight witty script, great acting, superb casting, amazing action, and simply fantastically tied together. A must-watch. As good as Batman Begins, and for me, slightly even better.

June Pic of Boy :D

Goal: 100 pushups a day

So far I have only managed 70 today... but I do feel way fitter, thanks to being inspired by Jennifer Garner as Elektra. Speaking of Jen, she tied the knot with Ben Affleck last weekend and are confirmed to be expecting their first child. Two thumbs up. :)

Managed to catch War of the Worlds (really bad ending - might as well watch ID4 again) and A Lot Like Love, which was a charming film about 2 people somehow missing the mark with each other but duh, getting together in the end, a la When Harry Met Sally. Not a bad DVD movie.

The surprise went perfectly according to plan, save an unexpected circumstance that had me scrambling for a solution. All in all, I think everyone was pretty well entertained. Much rest and recovery on Saturday and Sunday (I finished my Harry Potter collection!) and I confess to chomping up all the chocolates.

Ah! And the most joyous thing of the year (which happens only twice of), the Kino 20% sale. I acquired 6 coupons and bought, after much thought and consideration within the 1.5 hours I was allotted:

Creatures of the Night by Neil Gaiman
Space Odyssey by Tim Haines and Christopher Riley
Mind Hacks by Tom Stafford and Matt Webb
Surviving the Extremes by Kenneth Kamler (which I finished)
When Elephants Weep by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson and Susan McCarthy (which I just started)
Hyperspace by Michio Kaku (the acclaimed physicist my darling Kaku was named after)

Hark! Speaking of Kaku, I saw Dr Kaku on TV last night on the feature documentary I subscribed to cable to watch (well, I was thinking of cancelling it): Alien Planet. Brilliant, eye-opening, and revolutionary! :D My brother exclaimed in despair that he missed it, but was consoled that it would probably come out on DVD. :D
