Sort of a mixed week of sunny weather but it ended with a nice rain shower. I think the coming week we will see more rain but keep it coming, we still need more. After that one week we had of heavy rain, I drove by a reservoir and it was still dry! That is not a very good sign and shows that we do need more rain for a bit longer. Plus I just like sitting inside my home or office and listening to it in the background, its kind of soothing.

Weekly Update:
If anything is mispelled this week, blame the program. The spell checker is not working along with some other things and I am not sure why. Stoopid Google is all I have to say. Got sick this week with a slight cold but it has been pretty dang cold around here. For the most part been pretty ok and avoiding the sniffles till now.

At the movies:
Singing her way to #1 this week is the concert movie
Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert with a shocking 29 million! What makes this movie even more surprising is that it opened on less than 700 screens!! In at #2 is the thriller The Eye with only 13 mil, didn't see that one coming. Holding strong at #3 is "27 Dresses" with another 8.4 mil. Also holding strong at #4 is "Juno" with another 7.5 mil and just hit the 110 mil cume. Rounding off the top 5 is "Meet the Spartans" with 7.1 mil.

New movies that did not make the top 5: Surprising two wide releases that did not make the top 10 even! In at #11 is the "comedy"
Over Her Dead Body with only 4.6 mil. I say "comedy" because this movie just looks bad. In at #13 is a real comedy, Strange Wilderness with only 3 mil.

Comment Response:
None at this time.

Other News:

The NY Giants win the XLII (42nd) Superbowl from the New England Patriots, just cutting their perfect season short by 1 game. Considered an upset, the Pats were peg'd to win by 12 to 13 points and end up barely losing by 3 in a final touchdown from the Giants within the last minute and a half left of play. With two final "hail Mary" passes by Brady in the 3rd and 4th down, they were not able to make the connections in the final seconds giving the Giants their final win. The Giants started the season with an 0-2 record to only turn it all around to take the cherry on top of the prize. It was a close and good game throughout and it looked like the Pats were going to take it all ... but the beauty of this game, anything can happen with time left.
