Warm days but cool nights has been the recent weather and suppose to continue in that fashion for another week. I guess that is Fall-like weather as it gets cooler overall but I remember 2 years ago So Cali never left the summer till February hit. I suppose we are more on track these days which is good! I am sure crazy weather confuses the animals.

Weekly Update:

The Duckburg Gazette might take a hiatus for a couple of weeks based on my post-surgery recovery time. Right now it is set to take place on 10/4 but that could change based on any paperwork tie-ups. So the press will stop for a bit but hopefully not to long.


At the movies:
Family comedy takes the off-season box office crown with a in-season football movie
The Game Plan scoring a nice 22.7 million. New at #2 and a little under-whelming is the high drama The Kingdom with 17.7 mil. Big drop to #3 is "Resident Evil: Extinction" with only 8 mil. Another big drop to #4 is "Good Luck Chuck" with 6.3 mil more. Rounding off the top 5 is the western "3:10 to Yuma" with another 4.2 mil.

New movies that did not make the top 5: Not only did it not make the top 5, it missed the top 10! MGM's Feast of Love earns the #11 spot with only 1.7 mil and that is very sad considering the caliber of actors in it.

Comment Response:

None at this time.


Other News:
Sunday, Lois Maxwell passed away and to many you may ask, "who is that?" To many she was know (and to me) as the definitive "Miss Moneypenny" from the James Bond series of films. Having reprised the role for 14 Bond movies, she passed away near her Western Australian home at the age of 80 after her fight with cancer. Her first film playing the role, secretary to M, was opposite Sean Connery in "Dr. No" which is considered the first real Bond film. Her final Bond film was in 1985's "A View To a Kill" opposite Roger Moore. The role has seen new faces and young talent but ... she will always be THE Miss Moneypenny to me.
