You may not know it, but this is not the rear end of Natalie Portman, even though it’s her in the scene. A strange controversy suddenly breaks out between Portman and her body double about just how much work the star actually did.

Epic flop? Final numbers are no where near close to being in, but if things stay on the path they are on, RIO will finish a strong first at the weekend box office with SCREAM 4 numbers being surprisingly weak .. many thought the return to late 20th Century horror would bring a rebound for Wes Craven and company.. however the new numbers reported by Nikki Finke show a one weekend wonder in possible for the newest and hopefully last in the fractured franchise..
Things get better with age. Except when it's rotted maggot-infested meat.
But mostly things like wine and kids.. Not meat.
Some may in fact think that things were better in the early part of the 21st century, but everyone will agree on one thing: Meat from then isn’t. At least not meat from then being served now..
But the report on the strange butcher’s skills are abhorent to the senses, even carinvours would recoil in disgust at the attempt to digest the news. Food safety workers discovered bisquits with parasites, rotting meat and dairy, and even olives covered in thick mold.

His secrets to a long life? Embrace change, help others, eat twice a day, and accept death. It sounds pretty well rounded to me. A nice long life..

An ode to the past
There was a very cold spring wind that blew tonight, and it made me think of two things.. First it made me think of late night trips to Perkins with friends.. and secondly it made me think of a cold spring day in April 1996 at my friend Katie’s house, swinging around pool tools at her house.. not sure if she remembers, but I do.
It’s amazing to me how fast time goes. It often makes me wonder where exactly it goes… Does time exist as an element? Is there a way to measure time? …maybe by the wrinkles on the face, or the amount of stress someone has during a lifetime.
I just wish it didn’t go so damn fast.. so fast.
Ohhh.. how you waited. Ohh how you craved it. It’s that fantastic day yet again, when taxes are due and you are too.. Be safe. Good luck with the fast form.. good luck with the exemptions.. good luck with the tax code. And most of all, good luck with the post office..
its not tax day - monday is!
and the version of hallelujiah you posted was horrible! - this one is much better:
