Honestly, the only movie I want to see is "Casino Royale". I'm still a big Bond fan. ;^)
It got good reveiws..sounds like a throwback to the earlier ones...I haven't seen one in about 15 years..might rent the DVD when it comes out.
The 007 sites have given it mixed reviews, but this one sounds like it went back to Ian Flemings books, which has me thrilled, because they were much less inclimed to gadgets and more on the personal thinking of Bond. That's why I loved Tim Dalton more than even Sean Connery. He brought out the anger and rage that Fleming described...
In the book Dr. No, when Honey Rider comes out of the ocean, she steps on a sea-urchin spine, and Bond sucks the venom out of her foot... the chapter is titled "How to Eat a Girl"..Fleming was so droll, eh?
He was a bit of a cad, but the books were good. "Dr. No", "From Russia With Love" and "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" were the only movies, IMO, that came close to his books.
Penn State like defense, and unlike Penn State, a decent senior led offense.
that's a long time to wait for the game to start :)
It's OK, I have homework to do and alot of warm up games to watch inbetween.
LOL
yeah I get to Christmas shop for the first part of today...woohoo....
A nice 70" plasma tv would make a wonderful early christmas present for yourself.
Man there is some homecooking going on in Loiussville game.Big East must really want two teams in the BCS bowls.
Yeah, that call was inept crap, and handed back to Louisville 4 points.
Speaking of inept officiating crews, UH really took a beating from those clowns last night. Worst example was their failure to call a delay of game on a goal line stand by S. Miss on their 1/2 yard line. It doesn't take 20 seconds to climb off the pile, they were flailing around on the downed UH runner like beached whales, and one of them that had gotten up went back down on his knees while the refs just blinked their eyes.
OBTW, go Wake!
Bonnie Bernstein is cute, but adds nothing.
Yeah I am watching that one now.
We can count on Murtha Durbin and Pelosi to cheer against both Army and Navy today.
Bill ....
It isn't "Middies" - it Midshipmen - or Mids .... the MIDS don't like the other term!
(And by-the-way .... my (13 or 14 year old) son and I were at a Puget Sound Freeper event a few years ago - you had some of your best brew there ....
now ... he is one of those Mids. (In his 3rd year ... doing well!)

OBTW -- GO NAVY ... BEAT ARMY!!!!!!
Listening to Pasadena PD helicopter (I am at work doing some invoices) and they are street parking folks already.
This happens during a full house and there is a quick rush of fans into the area. Basically the golf courses are now closed, and they are going to be stack parking the streets leading toward the Rose Bowl (Ideally leaving a fire lane for emergency access). Going to take people a long time to get home tonight.
