I'm Too Sexy For This Blog

Despite my rant last week about the budget, after further investigation I read that we are still in rising international debt. That's where our surplus should go. Pay off as much as possible. I know that the average person doesn't care about it, but from my point of view that should become the number one priority when dealing with the tax surplus.

When the &^%$% hell did celebrities become the collective moral compass?
This is directed at actors and musicians, why the hell are these people being questioned about anything other than music or acting. I don't care what an actor thinks about the environment, If i wanted an opinion I'd ask someone who knows what the hell they are talking about.
As an example, think back to high school, the attention seeking 'actors' and muso's. Would you really listen to ANYTHING they had to say?
They should stick to what they are paid to do and nothing else.

DON'T TALK DOWN TO ME! Don't you ever talk talk down to me! You're a movie star, nothing more!

From the list, 10 Things We Learned From Spiderman 3:
1. EMOs are a product of alien symbiosis
3. If your girlfriend is hanging from the roof of a demolished skyscraper, never fear. Nonchalantly take some pictures and introduce yourself to her father, who also doesn’t seem to give a shit.
7. If you want to kill someone real bad, then go to church and pray and maybe, if you’re lucky, God will provide you with an alien suit made of pure evil.
9. Bad boys eat cookies, drink milk and mimic their lecturers down the phone in a hilarious manner.

I wish there was a real Department of Evil, It would be such a refreshing change to deal with someone honest.

Calling all Cars

A good point on Howard Stern was, how can you listen to celebrities promoting a charity, asking for you to give your money, when they could easily .

Never have to brush your teeth. Think about it, no amount of sugar could rot kryptonian incisor.
Weekend Update:
It was Alana's Birthday this week. She had a good day, and there is a dinner cruise on Saturday night as well. Should be lots of fun.

The cruise has now been and gone, and it was excellent. We were all dressed to the 9's and met up in the city for pre dinner drinks. Dinner was excellent, there was even some opera during dessert. It was an incredible night, and from what I can tell a fun time was had by all.

Dancing tonight. Not quite sure what to expect. But I remain forever optimistic.

Review:
Spider-Man 3:
In a word, dissapointing. That doesnt mean the movie was bad, it was good, but the first two were great, hence, dissapointing. The film felt rushed, enemies and characters are introduced with almost no real development. It feels like it is two movies stuck together, one with the Sandman & New Goblin as the protaginist and Peter changing to a more 'darker' person, and the other showing his redemption, by fighting against what he was (venom).
However the biggest problem I had with the movie was that it was to over the top. The first two were, for the most part, realistic, in thier portrayel of not only the characters but the world as a whole. This movie felt like it took place in a different NYC than the first one.
Maybe that is why I was dissapointed, because I am judging this movie as part of the trilogy rather than as its own movie. The over the top style, while not fitting in with the previous two, did allow for some really good scenes, the one where Spiderman pulls apart the water pipe, and it switches between the bolts flying off & Sandman's shocked look was very cool, it looked like it had come straight from the comic.
