Geez it's monday again. Isn't it lovely to actually appreciate a weekend when you can? I think it's somewhat fabulous, but at the same time, I wish I had more of a weekend to enjoy. Perhaps we should all switch to a four-day work week. Sound appealing? Besides all that, Monday brings new news. Revel in it if you haven't heard about it already.

Perhaps in world's laziest news, an overweight man is the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit versus notable fast-food chains for making him fat. I wish someone could sue them for being lazy. Cook once in a while, exercise, you people don't need to sue these places to know they make you fat.

If you've been sleeping under a rock, or trying to beat the crowds, and haven't seen Austin Powers in Goldmember yet, I suggest you take a look at what is perhaps the funniest one in the series. In my opinion, the ending was a bit forced, but since it set a box-office record, it's hard to believe most people would agree with that sentiment.

In music, if people haven't noticed already, there's a Britney Spears backlash underway with some noticable female singer-songwriters taking the forefront. It was only a matter of time before people started getting smart again. Now it should be interesting to see what happens when Christina Aguilera's new album comes out this fall...

Anti-gravity movement sweeps Boeing off its feet. It's like a thing of the future. And very appropriate that this technology came about from a half-baked experiment. Some people are just satisfied with a good idea and no sound practices. Maybe this will actually go somewhere, wouldn't it be cool to have anti-gravity belts?

In a typical high-tech move, people with mp3 players are starting to fancy themselves digital DJ's. At least it's better than a wedding dj. Who wants to hear Kool and the Gang's "Celebrate" five times over a 2 hour period?

The next movie from Steven Soderbergh, Full Frontal has a pretty informative website. Check it out for some more info on this new, somewhat independent-minded film.

That's all for now, perhaps I'll update later if things don't get too busy around here.
