Only a few weeks to go!

It is Tuesday night & I figured it was time for another entry on this blog. I just bought the brand new "Madden 2008" for my XBOX 360 and have been playing it for the past 4 hours straight! I cannot wait for the weekend, when I can play it for up to 12 hours straight!
Any more than 12 hrs straight can lead towards unpleasant dreams where I am being chased around a football stadium by a naked John Madden screaming obscenities at me while eating mustard covered hot dogs!!! Trust me, you do not want that dream!!!

Well, it is only a few weeks to go before my 3 week vacation to Europe. I am getting more & more excited every week. I only have a few things left to buy for the trip & hope that there isn't anything I am forgetting. I am progressing slowly on the learning french, but I think it is somewhat passable right now. I can order a beer (or wine) and really, what else is there to learn?

Time for a little Box Office News......New Line Cinema released Rush Hour 3 this past weekend, to OK results. It would have been great for the movie to make a little more $$$, but it did make $50 million. The only reason that nobody is estatic about $50 million is that it cost over $140 million to make the damn thing! When all is said & done it looks like it will make $125-14o million domestically. New Line's other movie currently out right now "Hairspray" is just about at $100 million, which is great seeing as it's budget was at $75 million. There are a few more movies yet to be released the rest of the year,inclulding "Shoot Em Up" which I worked on.

Well, that is all for now. I will update this weekend (hopefully) and I am planning on beginning to uptate a little more often as my trip gets closer.
