First off a big time movie recommendation. Mel Gibson may be nuts, but he makes great movies. Check out Apocalypto. It has subtitles throughout (the movie is in Mayan) but it is a great reflection on a fascinating, sometimes brutal, culture.



A little tip for you movie lovers who don't already know. When trying to decide what to rent, check out www.imdb.com and search your movie. It has movie ratings and user comments. The ratings are enough for me. Anything 6.5 and up is pretty good. Just be sure to check how many people rated it. Apocalypto got a 7.9 out of 10. Nothing has a perfect 10. For you curious souls the #1 rated is The Godfather ringing in a 9.1, it is tied with Shawshank Redemption.

Did you guys hear the Geico cavemen are getting their own television show? It premieres Tuesday 9/1 at 8pm. I wonder how long they can drag that joke out? When will the Tootsie Roll owl get his own show?

Speaking of the Tootsie Roll Owl, has there been a bigger scumbag ever? That damn owl always ate that poor kid's lollipop!!! Now I have the Tootsie Roll song in my head...sing along- "The world looks mighty good to me, a tootsie roll is all I see, whatever it is I think I see, becomes a tootsie roll to me." Ok, you can thank me later for sticking that song in your head.



Last one for today, why are some toll collectors rude? Don't they look to the left or the right and see the "Fast Lane" signs and realize they are replaceable???

Have a great weekend everyone. Remember to check out our program and archived programs on the net. Also be sure to read Sus Deportes Magazine, you can pick it up at local stores. Also be sure to read the Sus Deportes page in El Planeta for the latest opinions on the hottest sports topics. In case you didn't know, I write for both. Also be sure to check out Evelyn Reyes' blog at http://eveonmymind.blogspot.com/

Have a great weekend!

Well I decided that explaining it to you will be a waste of time because you wont get it. So I deleted the comment because I would be wasting my time.

Elias, my profile says a lot of things. Believe it or not, most of it is a joke. I don't really stand outside of Home Depot waiting for someone to hire me, I don't rob convenience stores, and the whole point of my comment was that perhaps you NEED a drink in order to lighten up my friend.
