Like most of my television shows, I am going on hiatus for part of the summer. I am taking the rest of July off since I'll be spending most of it on vacation.
When I get back, I'll have much to discuss since I am taking several books with me and plan on seeing Batman while I'm gone. I may also take in The X-Files as well.
In the meantime, I'll leave you with a July must-see: Wanted. I saw this excellent film last evening. James McAvoy shone as usual. Can the guy do wrong? Plus, he's pretty hot even when he's taking a beating. You all know that I love a good action film; this is an excellent action film. Although the effects will outshine most everything else, there are some lovely general shots as well. Plus, there's an interesting story to the film. Anyone who has worked a miserable, low-paying, useless-boss job will appreciate this movie. And it's a great date flix since McAvoy will appeal to the ladies and Angelina to the men.
Have a great month!

DUH! I just looked the "Wanted" director up and it's the same guy who did "Night Watch," "Day Watch," and "Twilight Watch." Well that explains the brilliant action sequences!
I have not seen Wanted, but thought I'd let you know that I just finished reading _Blink_, our new first year experience reader and it's pretty good. It is a bit pastiche with its stories but they all connect in that familiar postmodern way.
It has its critical naysayers but is still a good and relatively quick read covering many interest areas: music, art, psychology, couples' therapy, war, autism, and so on.
