Rain?!  Did we just get a day of rain?  Ok, it was more of a night of rain but it was very solid and much needed.  AND, it was much wanted!  When it rains so many people complain about it and such but this time, all I heard was "Thank God!" and "finally some rain!"  I guess people are finally accepting the fact that we have been in a drought for over a decades.  Some reports say it has been 3 or 5 years but so untrue!  Just because we had one time or two of good rain seasons that does not mean we are good for years to come.  We need a ton of rain, like Noah rain to bring us out of a drought completely.  It is like putting a band aid on a 6 inch gash wound ... not going to work.  More rain folks, we need more rain!!

Weekly Update:
So what happened this week ... nothing!  That is both good and bad I guess.  Good because nothing happened which is OK and there is nothing to worry about.  Bad because it must have been a very boring week for me which it was pretty much.  I think I tried a new restaurant in there some where but it was also just OK because it has left my  mind blank on remembering it.  That is interesting, if a place is just so-so then how well do you remember it?  And would you go back because it was just fair?  You always remember the worst places because your stomach will remind you. You always remember the great places because your taste buds will remind you!  That is a pretty good saying, stomach and taste buds, I will need to pocket that one and remember it for later!

At the movies:
No surprises this weekend as "Furious 7" continues to race through the weekend at the #1 spot with another 60.6 million.  A big drop from the previous week but enough to place it over 250 mil cume for the domestic box office.  The wheels are still rolling on this and should make its way to 300 mil easily.  Still holding strong at #2 is "Home" with an extra 19 mil as it reaches 129 mil cume.  New at #3 is The Longest Ride with 13.5 mil and right about expectations.  Not much on this film and should burn out pretty fast.  Holding on to #4 is "Get Hard" with another 8.6 mil and continues to slow down.  Rounding off the top 5 is "Cinderella" with 7.2 mil more and making a slow climb to 200 mil cume.
