The heat wave continues!!! This past week may have been warmer than the previous one! I tried to stay indoors almost all of it but also having your home office on the 2nd floor doesn't help. Luckily most of the cool air stayed inside and by closing all the windows and blinds, it remained manageable without having to turn on the AC. But if it is this warm now, wait till peak Summer time, it will be scorching if this is a preview of what is to come ... and only in April. Wasn't there a thing called April Showers as in rain in April?! Where is it!!?? I saw a few cloudy days but not a drop, very very sad about that. We need rain so badly!
Weekly Update:There is something comforting about the American restaurant. What do I mean by American? The Chili's, Applebees and Red Robins of the world. They aren't the healthiest of places to each, kind of a step above general fast food but the comfort is you know what you are getting, in a familiar setting and you just relax. Fast food is quick, here you go, see you later. And that is why it's fast food! But going into a Red Robin for example, I know my soda will always be refilled and my steak fries endless till I can't stuff anymore in my face. Sure you can go a little healthy with a salad but once you throw some BBQ chicken on their and ranch dressing ... well, enjoy it!
At the movies:
The Rock surprises again for a top box office win with Rampage Coming in at #1 with a hefty 34.5 million, above all expectations and his score card has been very solid as of late. Slight drop down to #2 is "A Quiet Place" with another 32.6 mil and now close to 100 mil cume for domestic, should get it by end of day tomorrow. New at #3 is Truth or Dare with 19.1 mil, slightly above expectations but not by much. Holding at #4 is "Ready Player One" with another 11.2 mil and passes the 100 mil mark. Rounding off the top 5 is "Blockers" with another 10.3 mil and didn't hit as an R-Rated comedy.
New movies that did not make the top 5:
Just one this week as Sgt. Stubby: An American Hero did not even place in the top 20 and only grossed less than a million. Possibly one of the worst openings in box office history or at least in the top 5.
