I love the new 8 oz. cans of Coke they have now. A full 4 oz. smaller that a regular size can! It makes finishing a can more appealing because sometimes you get to the bottom of a 12 ouncer and it's kind or warm, or flat. It's nice to see something get smaller as opposed to everything getting super-sized all the time, i.e. 20 oz. bottles of Coke, or even 3 liter bottles of soda. A "serving size" is considered 8 oz. so I don't know who decided to make a can that holds 50% more than that. It's too bad these aren't in all markets yet because I think they'd be a big hit. Plus, it makes me feel like Alice in Wonderland.

Random Thought Day:

I can't believe Corey Clark was all ready to be kicked off, in the bottom two, and zip! the rug is pulled right out from under ol' Chaz Grigby! Corey Clark has a voice that would shatter glass and looks that would shatter a mirror, I don't see what the fuss is all about. Oooh, he sang to Paula once! He is a star! *sarcasm*

Chow Yun-Fat is the MAN. But his new movie, which I just saw a trailer for, looks dumb. Seann (with two 'n's, the cool way to spell it) William Scott seems to be the headline star of the whole shebang. And you know that can't be good. But I want to believe that Chow can salvage it. Of course, I also thought that Jackie Chan could salvage The Tuxedo. I was dead wrong.

Awesome! Two of my favorite actors are in Anger Management! *sarcasm* Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler. There is one of my favorite actors in it, can you guess who? Hint: He lost out by not starring in such legendary films as Billy Madison and Big Daddy.

Microsoft Windows has a new security flaw. So what's new? They're always catching flaws for years after they release an operating system. You think maybe they could find it just once before they released it?

Colin Quinn is a tremendous jobber. He's not funny, he can't deliver lines, he's terrible. The guy always tries his hand at new shows, but they just never work. The most underrated SNL cast member ever was Kevin Nealon. He never got the respect he deserved, but gosh darn it, I liked him.

Ed Begley, Jr. has gigantic feet.

End Random Thoughts.

I finally put my Commentaries page back up, check it out here or at the link in the left column. Also check out The Would You Rather...? game, It's great fun for the whole family!

Two songs from The Wiz? Two songs?? What the heck are these people on American Idol thinking? The Wiz is a cult classic to be sure, and a fairly good movie, but two people choosing songs from it? It's a little obscure to have 2 out of 11 people singing one of its tunes in my opinion. Once again, Simon Cowell once again speaks the truth. If they had to choose a song from The Wiz, the least they could've done was sing Ease on Down the Road man!

I took one for the team and watched Fear.Com last night. And it totally ripped off The Ring! Oooh, a website that makes you die instead of a videotape that makes you die--original! But to give you a clue on just how DUMB it was, when the characters in the movie had to go to the website, they had to type in not fear.com, the normal way to type in a website, but feardotcom.com. Isn't that a bit redundant? You don't type in hotmaildotcom.com, one .com is sufficient. You'd think they would have thought that through just a tad more. But it did star Stephen Dorff! Isn't that alone enough??

This is the coolest link. I got this tattered $1 bill in change yesterday and was irritated because it was so ratty because I like crisp bills. But, don't we all like fresh-off-the-mint bills? But I digress. On upon closer inspection I realized that stamped on it it was: "Where have I been? Follow my travels! www.wheresgeorge.com" So the curiousity bug bit me, and because I have nothing better to do, I went on the site. And on it you can track all over where your bill has been and where it goes after you spent it! That is, if someone who gets it next bothers to enter the serial number. I'm proclaiming it awesome, in that pretty useless kind of way. Of course, my bill only traveled a scant distance of 15 miles, but it's gotta start somewhere right?

Why do they have to put pickles in small jars? They're all packed in there so tight upon first open that it's nigh impossible to get them out. And you can use a fork to get them but you have to make sure you stab it just right so you can worm the pickle out of the jar. When the jar is almost empty and then you reach with your hands, you'll get pickle juice all over them. Is it too much to ask to have the same amount of pickles, but in a more ergonomic, user-friendly container? Somebody get Vlasic on that one.
