Pistol Squat Day

Beginning Thoughts:

India's budget is being released on Monday so frantic activity in the stock market today. Good news is that homosexuality is finally legal in India. About time is what I think! Live and let live. But then again...this is not supposed to be a religious log so I'll leave my political thoughts at the door.

Overall Impression:

I am gonna go see Ice Age 3 tomorrow. I've been watching a huge amount of movies over the last few days. I saw T4 and I liked it contrary to most people because all I went in expecting was entertainment. I saw X-Men again and I loved it. I also saw on DVD Frost/Nixon and I think it was awesome. I made the mistake of seeing John Cena's 12 Rounds which was really retarded. I am going to start Heroes Season 2 this weekend. Lots of catching up to do hahahha!

I hope everyone has a good weekend. Happy 4th of July to you Americans
