Tidbits
Blog Killer
Facebook pretty much killed Blogger ... but I'm not giving up. I'll continue to write entries on this site until they completely shut it down. I don't know about you but I like writing "stuff" rather than inserting little bits of information or updates on social networking sites. Facebook is fun and all but it just lacks substance (the "meat & potatoes"). You really get to know more about people and about yourself through their words - writing. Ok, I admit that much of the content on my blog aren't "thought-provoking" or "cutting-edge" but it still serves as a window to my wonderful life. That's substance, baby!
Top 10 Films of 2008
Yeah, it's way late. I meant to post this the week of the Oscars but who really cares? Anyway, in case you're interested to what I thought were the best movies I saw last year, here it is:

8) Penelope
7) Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
6) Forgetting Sarah Marshall
5) Vantage Point
4) Ghost Town
3) Milk
2) Burn After Reading
1) The Dark Knight
Top 10 in Music of 2008
Same as above ... I'm way late on this. Does anybody really care about my taste in music? Yeah, some of you do. Admit it!
10) We Have Cause to be Uneasy - Wild Sweet Orange
9) "Single Ladies" Music Video by Beyonce
8) One Day As a Lion - Self-titled

2) Vampire Weekend - Self-titled
1) Viva La Vida - Coldplay
U2
Speaking of music ... I guess I'm not a true fan 'cause "I still haven't found what I'm looking for" (get it?). No, seriously, I still haven't purchased the new U2 album. I've heard mixed reviews about the cd. However, there's only one opinion I truly value when it comes to the best band of all time - my cousin Mac's. If he liked it, then it's worth buying. Target, here I come ...
San Francisco Chronic-cle
Will the newspaper close or will someone save it? It's really too bad that this is happening now. I'm having 2 great sales months! It reminds of me Alanis Morisette's first lines in "Ironic".
"An Old Man Turned 98
He Won the Lottery
And Died the Next Day"
Yeah ... bummer!
