  Happy Birthday to Me!!!

  My birthday is tomorrow!!!

  I prolly won't be on tomorrow, although you never know.

  A friend is taking me to Atlantic City, can't wait to hit those nickle slots

  Sorry if I haven't talked to you lately, since this new site layout popped up I've spent a record-low amount of time. My queue is packed and the only activity I've done is make sure it doesn't spill over past seven days and try to keep my currently-airing shows somewhat up-to-date, although some have fallen to the wayside.

  I wrote a blog about what I thought about the new tv.com, but it got lost in the update. In short, I don't like this site at all. I don't have to decide to leave or not, I practiclly already have.

  Okay

  I wrote a very true, heartfelt blog filled with some strong feelings I have towards this site that I felt I should say but I'm taking it down after further consideration. It's really not for everyone to read I relized, only my favorite people here. If you wish to read it and were friends here, please PM me and we'll talk.

  EDIT: Ah, the awkwardness comes in. People are asking me if they can read the blog, people who aren't my "favorite people". I don't deserve to breathe the same air as Einstien. Now requests will be granted for this tonight, I need to sleep.

  Sunburn, funburn!

  I had a great time in South Carolina and Florida, but unfortunatly I spent a little too long in the FL ocean with just a little too little sunscreen and the last few days back have been very painful.

  

  It's mainly in my shoulders, with less on my nose, knees and chest. The pain and stiffness seems to be going away, but the color isn't. I feel like such an idiot, I put on a tiny amount and basiclly said "sunburn, shumnburn! It won't happen to me". It really sucks when some common sense could have prevented this, something I pride myself on having.

  

  If I could go back now, I'd cover myself in 100 gallons of the stuff.

  Okay movie review time! 6th movie of my unintentional series, today's movie is a 2005 tv movie called Amber Frey: Witness for the Prosecution! Kind of an obscure choice, but haven't all of these movies been? It's by far the most controversial, serious movie I've reviewed. I watched today on Lifetime Movie Network (LMN for those in the know) and was impressed. We all remember the Scott Peterson/Laci Peterson/Amber Frey saga as it played out in the media a few years back

  

  I was very intersted as this story played out, did this seemingly normal man kill his beautiful wife and their unborn child? The movie was very well done and it was respectful of all the people it portrayed. I learned alot more about the scandal then I knew, and I am convinced he did kill her. The actress Janel Moloney, who some of you may know as Donna Moss from The West Wing, portrayed Amber, in stunning brillance I thought. Her physical appearence is very close to Amber's, which may have been partial reason for the casting. The man who played Scott (Nathan Anderson) looked very similar to Scott. Unforutnatly, his acting was sub-par, he kept the character believable but didn't make it very three-dementional. All together, the film was a riviting account of just what happened in this love-triangle and it handled it with the dignity and respect that is deserved for this kind of telling and I recommend it to anyone who recalls what happened.

  It was based on Amber's book of the same title, something I'm going to hunt around bookstores for.

  

  Somehow, Scott still sits on death row today, appealing his sentence for execution. That's America for ya, folks.

  Okay, to change tunes somewhat awkwardly here, Olympic time!

  

  I watched from opening ceremonies to closing and I was riveted. The opening ceremonies were amazing, by the way. The games were very enjoyable, especially following Michael Phelps and Usain Bolt.

  

  As you can see, one's a little more humble than the other, but both athletes amazed me and everybody. From swimming to cycling to sports I've never watched before in my life, the Olympics shocked and awed me and kept me glued to my set. NBC did a good job presenting it, I don't think this is the forum to discuss China's controversy, it's about the games and putting our problems aside for two weeks.

  Until next time,

  David
