IS IT JUST ME...

or does anyone else hate that campbell's soup guy?  If I had been the man on the elevator, I would have found a way to push that creepy little guy down the elevator shaft.

And speaking of commercials, my two favorites are the Life Water commercial with the reptiles dancing with the beautiful young woman ( I love it when the grasshopper sneaks in on the dance line and the lizard eats him and then smiles with a mouth full of hardware) and the Pepsi energy drink commercial where the people are sleeping until they drink it and then they do the head bobbing, ala, A Night At the Roxbury.  LOVE 'EM!

IT'S SATURDAY...

March 8, 2008, and I had another wonderful, restful day at home. This time I cooked baked cornish hens and rice, with a nice big salad and my signature cornbread.  Yum.

I'm watching (or listening to as the case is now) "Troy" with Brad Pitt and Eric Bana.  I love this movie, and have seen it many times.  It's so physical, and even though hollywood took its usual creative licensing with history, the integrity of the story still stands.  I gained new respect for Brad Pitt as an actor.  Achilles was not an easy character for a known pretty boy to play, but Brad's intensity as he plowed through his enemies, sword in hand, was undeniable.  The battle scenes were magnificent as well and the human element of the story stood out.  In the end it boiled down to a story of love, hate, and the blood and guts of war.  Excellent Saturday cinema.
