ATL - 7/28/08 - Island of Misfit...Stuff

Xanadu at the Plaza rocked...thanks Kyle.tv and Gang!
These are all things left behind at our place by friends...you have 1 week to contact us to reclaim it or it's going to Goodwill! (Come on...someone is missing that breakfast tray!)

MOVIE/LOCAL/U.S./FRENCH/WEB NEWS

MOVIE NEWS - "The Movie Insider" lists a couple of movies coming out August 1st, including "(Another frickin') Mummy", "Swing Vote", and "Choke". If I want more Brendan Fraser, Kevin Costner, or Chuck Palahniuk, I'll rewatch "The Mummy", "Bull Durham", and "Fight Club". If I'm going to see something a 2nd time in the theater this weekend, I'm going to "Wall-E" or "Dark Knight".

LOCAL NEWS - Atlanta groups are begging to regain access to Piedmont Park. Maybe they should just sue. From the nyt; New York City "has been struggling to defend a decision to deny permits to two antiwar groups that sought to hold a rally of 75,000 people in Central Park...The city argued that the big crowds would damage the Great Lawn..."

Overheard in Cartersville: "So, I hear they call you 'Toolshed'; I'm kinda scared to ask, but how'd you get that nickname?"

"Cuz I got a big tool...heh, heh, heh."

"Oh...well...then shouldn't 'Toolshed' be your wife's nickname?"

"uh...nope...why would it be? That's my nickname."

"Nevermind."

U.S. NEWS -Dolly blew into Texas. Pigeon Forge breathed a sigh of relief.

U.S. - Wachovia loses $9 billion. I hope they didn't lose mine.

Now jalapeƱos are being blamed for a nationwide case of food poisoning. I find this whole thing is a little over-reactionary; a couple of folks throw up for a day or two and entire farms are shut down - people are dying of obesity-related disease, but no one is demanding a recall of Big Macs!

FRENCH NEWS - Following his "successful" trip overseas, Le Monde reports that Obama returns to the U.S. to concentrate on the economy. Oh, and some guy won some bike race. -la victoire de Carlos Sastre-

WEB NEWS - "Netroots" had their convention last week about online forms and politics...a giant blogger-a-thon.
