THE WONDER OF THE MULTI-TOPIC POST: A bunch of random quick shots for your enjoyment this long weekend:
  • Should I feel emasculated for not owning a grill, much less a "supergrill," which the Times sheds light on today?
  • My favorite part of the Brangelina baby article in People is the comment at the end from Mary-Louise Parker, in which MLP says that Pitt is "a great guy, conscientious and kind. I'm happy for both of them." Translation--he was less of an ass to Aniston than Billy Crudup was to her.
  • Randy Newman might note today that short people (at least women) have one less reason to live--department stores are phasing out their petite departments.
  • Do you really want a $28 martini, especially one without anything other than vodka in it?
  • Is it just me, or does the trailer for upcoming Jack Black picture Nacho Libre look like the movie cost about $50 to make--like two kids borrowed a grainy digital video camera and told their buddy "act stupid!"
  • X-Men: The Last Stand is enjoyable, but way too overcrammed with material. In an hour and 45 minutes, you shouldn't try to introduce at least 3 substantial new characters (Beast, Angel, and Juggernaut), kill 3 major characters, and strip 3 major characters of their powers (perhaps) permanently. It's so overstuffed that I'm thankful that the originally planned small cameo from Lost's Josh Holloway as Gambit didn't make it in. That said, I'll be interested to see where they go from here--I think there's an interesting completely changed franchise ahead.
  • This long weekend, I'm already looking ahead to the next long weekend. Anyone have suggestions for a getaway over the extra-long Fourth of July weekend?
  • Also, deal of the week? Today and tomorrow, you can pick up Beverly Hills Cop on DVD for $3.95 at your local Best Buy.
