The heat is on ... the heat is on on on ... yep, it now feels like Summer time has hit Southern Cali as we hit 90+ degrees. Not thrilled, spending time inside and turning on the AC $$$. Please do not let this heat be an indication of what is to come for the season. If so we will probably have a fire or two, if not three or four. Despite the rain we had and moisture, it will dry up and fast. The rain simply was not enough to sustain us for the rest of this year as we needed so much more and people don't realize that! But I feel like everyone thinks we received all this water, they can change their lawns back to grass, start spraying down their driveways with water and build fountains now ... nope.
Weekly Update:So this was kind of fun. Last minute I was invited to this presentation at work with the co-directors of "Moana" along with one of the producers. It was pretty interesting but at the same time nothing new since I have seen the process before. But they were all great and fun speakers and luckily before they started I caught one of them for a quick picture as they didn't allow any at the end.
*Ron Clements - Very nice guy and accomodating.
Ron also directed "Aladdin," "The Little Mermaid" and one of my favorites "The Great Mouse Detective."
At the movies:A new #1 this weekend as to be expected as Alien: Covenant takes the crown with 36 mil to open. Below expectations but could be enough to get it past the 100 mil cume when it is said and done. Slight drop to #2 is "Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2" with an extra 35.1 mil as it crosses 300 mil cume for domestic box office. New at #3 is Everything, Everything earning a decent 12 mil and around expectations for this one. Drop to #4 is "Snatched" with 7.6 mil and this one is about out of steam. New and rounding up the top 5 is Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul with 7.2 mil and as much to be expected for this franchise.

Facts & Tips:
President John Quincy Adams' pet alligator lived in a White House bathroom."There will be no rescue, no intervention for us. We can only save ourselves. Many of you know influential people abroad, you must call these people. You must tell them what will happen to us... say goodbye. But when you say goodbye, say it as if you are reaching through the phone and holding their hand. Let them know that if they let go of that hand, you will die. We must shame them into sending help." - Don Cheadle as Paul Rusesabagina in "Hotel Rwanda."
