"Dennis The Menace"

The hurricane could bit a direct hit in some states. Of course they are saying it could make oil prices sky rocket. Looks like I will riding my bike to work.


It's a cat 3 now, and the first major hurricane to hit the us in 70 years.

ATTACKS ROCK LONDON


Hopefully, Tucker's World isn't your source for news around the world. But this post is obviously about the terrorist subway and bus bombings in London that happened today.

Now does make people think of another attack in the US again? I mean this attack was sick,but pretty ideal way to cripple a city. Thoughts? Fears?

"Sometimes You Know Them"

Over the fourth of July weekend there was a terrible accident towards the shore on the Black Horse Pike (322) near route 50. A car full of teenaged girls speed into and flipped over a medium slamming into another car in the opposite lane.

In the other car were two woman. One of which lived right across the street from me my entire life. The car with the teenage girls burst into flames and all 5 people were killed.

It's amazing how many articles fill the local papers of such accident, but it is really different when you know them.

I have been over that strech of road several times. I cant imagine how fast the young girls must have been going to flip over the medium.

Now I wasnt really close with the woman. However, she had a comcial unspoken compeition to beat my mother with house decorations for each holiday. If one put decorations up for the next holiday on the calendar with in an hour or so the other one would have their stuff up.

"March of the Hurricanes"

By weeks end we will be past the letter D in named storms for the hurricane season. Thats pretty far through the order for early July. Could we get to Z this year? Of course people on messages boards are already pondering if it is the end of the world. I read on post on AOL that seriously blamed President Bush for the pending storms.


Anyway Cindy is heading for the Louisiana area. Meanwhile Dennis is heading towards Florida. Could be the 5th hurricane to hit the state in less than a year. At this point neither are actually hurricanes, but tropical storms.


Here is the track of Cindy. Hopefully it rains the entire weekend, beause I will be "on call" for mywork the whole weekend. In a nutshell I am that annoying guy on the cell phone that you see out at the mall. Hopefully mother nature does me a favor and makes everyone's elses weekend suck.

The Track of Dennis

"Forever Is a Long Time Coming"

If a hockey league returns from a lockout and its not on TV for fans to see it, does it have a CBA?


The NHL may have gone extreme, but unless they find a new home on cable soon it won't matter much nationally. Regionally, most fans should be fine, and theres always the hockey package.

However, ESPN is either going to play hardball and get the games for a song. Or, they have totally lost interest in the sport they stood behind longer than most people thought they should have. Who can blame them if they balk? Poker gets better ratings and is a lot cheaper to produce.

NBC takes over what ABC kind of had for years. Late season games and some playoffs. However, other than that they are wandering around with out a TV home.

Perhaps since they are going more extreme and in your face they will knock on the door of the fleding Spike Network which just landed Howard Stern. Some experts say that on bad move and they sport could fail into the pile with Lacrose and indoor soccer. Read more here.

"Superman Returns Poster"

Yeah, pretty much what the title of the post said.



SWEEEEET.


Hope there is teaser soon. Perhaps before Fantastic Four, but I would think more than likely before the Harry POtter film also done by Warner Brothers.

Check it out.

"Movie Quotes"

I always mean to watch this every summer. I usually miss it. CBS ran it a few weeks ago.


AFI came out with the best movie lines this summer. I think its funny how the line Play it again, Sam. Was never actually uttered. People just recall the line wrong.

I think there should have been more lines from Jaws, and at least one from Ghostbusters.


Here are the quotes.

"The Slump Continues":

This has really got my interest. It could be almost as bad as when Movies were getting their butts kicked when TV first came out. Of course if you look at the numbers that these movies are doing its hard to see there is a slump at all.

See what I mean?
