To this day, every time I hear "Hail to the Chief", I sing those lyrics. 😁

Back when Arrested Development was reported to be canceled, some fans suggested that we make t-shirts that said "Annyeong, Hermano!" As a means of showing our love for it. I'll occasionally say that to someone who's familiar with the show (otherwise it would make no sense to the person I said it to).

For me, it's:

It's still listed as poor, but you'd never know it because for the first time since before the fire started, we have a bright blue sky.

We watched the Eaton Canyon fire start and expand from our front porch. When people from here say they've never seen anything like it, it's true- they're not just stating a cliche. The word that best describes the scene is apocalyptic. Luckily, our house survived and we have a generator, so we've only had to deal with limited power, unsafe water conditions, and as of this morning, no gas. But, we now know of 12 people who have lost homes. We have friends who live a little closer to the worst of it and they know dozens of people who have lost homes. I'm surprised the death rate isn't higher than it is at this point. As for Hollywood productions being shut down, it's going to depend on a lot things. I wouldn't be surprised if the list get much longer.

I find myself saying "Well, this is bad in so many levels" quite often (I know Sam says that, but it's one of them many great lines). I hope you enjoy the show. Back when it was airing, I'd stopped watching after season 4, but I started a rewatch a while back and am now in near the end of season 6. They changed writers in season 5 and it took them a while to find their footing, so it's not a great season, but 6 got better. It's a bit different than 1-4, but still good.

I first saw him in The Impossible and noticed the star quality. Imo, he was a perfect choice for Spider Man. There's also his famous Lip Sync Battle performance that still has people talking all these years later. 😍

Maybe superstar is a bit strong for Zendaya, but I'd definitely say A Lister. There are a lot of actors whose names I don't know or whose work I'm not familiar with, but, I've been seeing her on tv since her kids show, then Dancing With the Stars, The Greatest Showman, Dune 1 and 2, the Spider Man trilogies, I've heard a lot about Eurphoria and just watched Challengers. She's also one of the celebrities to watch for on the red carpets because she's so beautiful and the majority of her looks are perfection (imo, anyway).

Zendaya and Tom Holland Are Engaged! I'm happy for them. They seem like such a fun, loving, couple, and I love that he's not insecure about her fame (or her height! lol). I know he's famous, too, but she's a superstar. Just recently I read that he doesn't walk with on the red carpet during her film premiere's because "it's her moment". I really hope they make it.

My seventh grade English teacher told us that other English teachers would be introducing their students to Shakespeare using Romeo and Juliet, but she hated that story, so she introduced Shakespeare by teaching Julius Ceasar instead.

Yeah, the 4th one left me cold. He was always hovering around superhero territory, but falling off that building at the end of 3 and then the ridiculous stuff that they had him do 4 was just way too much (and it was already almost way too much as it was).

I thought about them, but of the other nominated movies that I've seen (which I'lladmit aren't many), there are at least 3-4 new, important characters that needed to be well cast. I know I'm being picky, but it's just an odd nomination for me because the 2 most important characters were aready cast previously.

I'm sorry....I love this movie and I've been saying for a while now that casting directors deserve more credit, but how many of the main characters were cast in other movies first? Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, Peter, Wesly Snipes, Jennifer Garner, Dafne Keen, the other characters from Deadpool 1 and 2 and more.....were all cast in previous movies. It's a great ensemble, but I don't get the nomination. Am I missing something?

I don't wish that my dad had died within a few weeks of my mom, who died 4 years ago this coming January, but my dad has been so miserable. Between missing her dearly and some physical problems, he's practically given up. He's even implied on a couple of occasions that he's ready.
