What is up with remakes?

June 25 2005
I have decided Hollywood can not come up with any orginal ideas. Why must there be remakes of movies, shows, etc. Let us take for an example Bewitch. In my own personal taste it was awful. Nicole Kidman was trying to play Meg Ryan who was playing Samatha off of bewitch. It was just a horrible movie. It wasn't Bewitch, it was a remake with the premise of being Bewitch. The plot was that a famous actor decides remake Bewitch the show, he finds a actress who wingles her nose but she turns out being witch. Nicole Kidman didn't even wingle her nose correctly. Why can't they just leave well enough alone?

There have been good remakes don't get me wrong. The Brady Bunch movie pokes fun at the concept of the show, but also made one think of old times. It was orginal, but kept to the ideals of the show.

There are only so many times one can remake Herbie, The Parent trap, Freaky Friday and so many others. Memo to Hollywood give me an oringal movie like Star Wars..

So this weekend I had to go to Little Rock for a wedding. It was an interesting town. One of the places I visited was the Clinton Library. There were two type of people there; ones who hated him, and those who adored him. Nobody in the middle like. It was an amazing place with a nonparstian view of the time he was president. It even mentioned the scandal. The picture above is from the first time Lance Armstong won the Tour de France. I got overly excited about this.

So I

I want to be swept off my feet. I know this sounds very melodramatic. That is what I want. I am not going to make it hard for anyone so below are some easy steps to sweep me off my feet.

1.Sweet talk me, and play fight with me. I like to argue. Nothing mean or evil just over things.

2. Take me to the park. I like the outdoors. I am not afraid to get muddy. If there is any type of sport to go along with it. I would be overjoyed. Don't laugh when I trip over myself.

3. Give me a book so we can discuss it. I like to read. I want to be able to share my opinions.

4. Take me to the movies and buy me a popcorn. Don't laugh at me when I get excited when the Harry Potter preview comes on. I know I am a dork.

5.Just be yourself. That is only thing a girl can hope for.

May I ask where is my Mr.Darcy?

Summer so far...

June 03 2005
It is odd to think this is my last Summer running Cross Country with Salty. I have been doing this for four years. Frankly, that is a long time. It is odd to go somewhere and realize the people who have guided you for the past 3 years are gone. You keep looking around for them and they are no where to be found.

I have a volunteer job this summer. I will be working the Battlefield. I don't know what I will be doing, but it should prove to be interesting.Maybe I am finally growing up. Though I still feel like I am all of 15. I just don't know. There is so much that I need to do but some how I feel like I am too young to do it.
