These Are The Things I Think About -- July8th-July14th

Well big romance rumours this week. George Clooney & Stacy Keibler are splitsville. This is the word on the street. Ladies if you don’t want kids or marriage, but do want George, --this seems to be his criteria-- the line up starts to the left…Guys if you want to date someone whose ex boyfriend you will never live up to, line up starts to the right 

Some early summer TV (read: taking a chance to fill programming while no one who spends money with us is really paying attention) debuts are arriving. Wednesday night, Camp, kicked off. It’s a new show following Campers and Counselors at a summer camp, hence the clever name. Tom Green is in it and it’s on NBC. So, it has the perfect fitting combination of potential to be pretty good, or really, really, really god awful bad. Good luck to Camp… Hope it isn’t too Campy of a show, old chum. 

From potential to likely downright crap. We might have the next Waterworld. Not the fun time summer place, but, the lousy money hemmoraging movie. Disney’s “The Lone Ranger” is turd at the box office. 250 million to make the movie, 175 million to market it. Experts say it will likely lose 100-150 million dollars. Ouch!… Don’t worry soon to be fired Disney executives, I’m sure NBC will hire you. 

Kate Middleton is due to give birth today. --As of typing this no baby. Looks like she missed it-- The Royal Family is doing everything they can to keep it a secret. Umm, by letting us know today was the day, didn’t it kinda defeat the purpose?, just sayin’. Anywho, only Scotland Yard will be notified, when its hospital and baby time. I’m take bets on 6 minutes before news is leaked…Sadly, I am realizing that probably IS something you can bet on. Apparently odds and bets are available for a slew of Royal Baby related items. This is like the Superbowl of pregnancy betting. Bet Britain loves this latest comparison to ‘Merica.

--Oh, P.S. Far more interesting music news came down the pipe from Pearl Jam this week. Countdown clocks have been running on their website promising something big. Monday it was announced a 24 show North American tour for this fall. Then, Thursday the big news hit. Official word of their coming 10th album. It will be called Lightning Bolt; It’s out October 15th. And, the first single is ready. It’s called Mind Your Manners. Here it is: --lemme know what you think of it!--
