Chris Evans to make his Broadway debut, starring opposite Michael Cera. Jeez, that's like matter and antimatter, or something.

Lucas Lee and Scott Pilgrim, together again!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

A rematch of the Scott Pilgrim battle, perhaps?

Oh, duh. How could I forget that?

I maintain that's Chris Evans' finest role. FIGHT ME.

Is there a female version of "emasculated"? I can't think of a word that describes feeling less of a woman after an event or action.

(inspired by yet another man who apparently resents having to ask for help with his computer and isn't at all happy that the nerds have more power than he does in a situation.)

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Aw, yeah, the first Fast and the Furious movie is just starting on TV. I don't think I've seen it since the theater.

Father-in-law update: he's moved to his new room on the assisted living side and went to eat lunch in the dining room and apparently is sitting with 3 other men and they're talking about sea turtles. Yay!

Don't know if he has more pants yet, though.

Men of a certain age do like gathering together and talking. Hubby would run into a complete stranger at the grocery store, and I and the other guy's poor wife would spend the next twenty minutes going "Honey, the ice cream's melting" and "Beloved, we need to get home."

And they call women chatterboxes.

My goodness, the dialogue in this movie. It has not aged well, presuming it was ever timely in the first place.

And Vin Diesel is like half the size he is now.
