Oh the snow was pretty - we did not get anywhere near what ya'll got but it was pretty while it fell. And I did get a snow day out of it since they shut the schools down and I left work to get the teenager - LOL Spent the day curled up in front of the fireplace with a book
Celine Dion performed at the year’s top-grossing concert, as her return to Quebec and Montreal’s Bell Centre made $33.8 million, nearly twice as much as Bonnaroo grossed ($17 million.) (source Rollingstone.com)
Hmmmm.... It's really is a scary world.
I found the article... but I don't understand? This was a single night concert? I looked up the capacity and it is approx 21,000...
Soooo... by my math, she charged approx $1,609/ticket ??? Her fans must all smoke crack, there's just no other explanation
It was 8 nights and they all sold out in something stupid like 4 minutes. Seats on the floor were 450$ - 550$. Plus the Bell Centre hold 21,273 for Canadiens games that number goes up for concerts.
But scalpers were asking for 2500$ a piece for some tickets.....Crazy-ass fans!

So, Golden Globe nominees were announced today, and there's a film that's been of interest to me since I heard about it about a year ago called "The Wrestler."
Directed by Aronofsky (Pi, Requiem For A Dream, The Fountain) and starring Mickey Rourke, Marissa Tomei, and Ernest "The Cat" Miller, it's a fairly realistic look at an aging wrestler trying to make a comeback ( the main character is supposedly based on Jake "The Snake" Roberts).
The movie looks really, really good, and I've been a fan of Aronofsky's work for the most part, so I'm really looking forward to it. It's probably getting a limited release, but I suggest you go see it, if you're interested in the topic, Rourke, Aronofsky, or anything like that.
It was nominated for 3 Golden Globes, today; Best Actor in a Drama for Mickey Rourke, Best Supporting Actress in a Drama for Marissa Tomei, and Best Original Song for "The Wrestler" by Bruce Springsteen.
Damn, it's nice to see something related to pro wrestling that's not either completely demeaning to the business or condescending to the fans... and is actually respected by the arts community.

This word also has a underground meaning once you break it down. Let’s take “Bonn” for example and it actually turns into the word “Bone”. We all know gays use this word to describe the action of when they are fecal fisting their Cuban cabana boy at their sex bath house parties. Now let’s look at Roo, “Roo” is short for “Kangaroo”.So put the full true message together and you get“Bone a Kangaroo

I want to see this movie, too! There are so many good movies coming out this winter.
I saw Slumdog Millionaire last night at a pre-screening. It was an excellent movie! I'm not familiar with Bollywood films, so this was my first experience, but my friend that went with me said that they tend to over-sensationalize their stories. Slumdog is a pretty severe rags-to-riches story but still very enjoyable.
There's even a dance sequence at the end during the credits... I loved it!
ok - I am thankful I have a job with the economy the way it is - but I really hate my job at times - the plicies here just make no sense at all and are definately not employee friendly - oh well what should I expect from a government job?

Woo-Hoo. I get to leave work early thanks to heavy snow fall. To bad that same snow will make traffic a stand still, but hey my weekend will still start a few hours earlier.
I'm going to a Tacky Holiday Sweater party in a few weeks... I already have my sweater (from a thrift store, of course) but after looking at those photos, I'm afraid I didn't look hard enough. Perhaps I should keep looking. I'd really like to find a holiday dickie (sp?) to wear underneath as well.
