Corey Hart came in again last night, this time with his kids, and they played a home run derby on MLB: The Show on one of our displays. Without hesitation he picked Michael Young to hit with. I really, really wanted to ask why.
Maná – Labios Compartidos
NBBW and I saw Fher and the lads at a concert at Foxwoods a couple years back.
It was an Hispanic, not a Mexican concert. There were numerous Latino country flags being waved in the audience. So, there'd be like: Viva Panama!! (and the Panamanians would all shout), etc.

I actually got some good news the day before the Ides of March, as the director for The Apocrypha called and said things were very, very close; distribution is guaranteed and a five-year(!!!) deal has been okayed. A second group has stepped in to pay for it if the first can't. He thinks we'll be shooting in May. As always, I'm gonna say this won't happen, but we sure are close.

Someone from this site is guaranteed to win Spookymilk Survivor next week. That makes five straight wins over there for WGOM Citizens. One hadn't started posting here yet when the season started, but I think he counts.
