Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder

This made the movie awesome. Tom Cruise is a super versatile actor for pulling this dance off. This was not the original song. I don’t remember what the second song was but  he first danced it to T-Pain’s Apple Bottom Jeans. Good stuff. Tropic Thunder is not a classic must-see movie but I don’t think it was a waste of two hours. Lots of laughs and the plot is pretty original.

Ben Stiller always plays similar characters but he produced and wrote this movie so kudos to him. Scattered throughout the movie are surprise appearances from random celebritites like Lance  Bass and Jennifer Love Hewitt.

They Are Both Pregnant

Alyson Hannigan and Colbie Smulders from HIMYM are both expecting babies in the spring. The show did not include their pregnancies in the storyline but I think Hannigan’s character, Lily, did reveal her tummy in one episode. Smulders just sits in front of the anchor’s desk more often.

Australian Open Logo

The Australian Open concluded earlier this week with Rafael Nadal defeating Roger Federer in the men’s division and Serena Williams over Dinara Safina in the women’s side. The great tennis matches entertained me while I was at the gym. But! this “Melbourne” logo that is imprinted on the floor and walls around the line judges are ugly. It doesn’t look like it fits in a tennis court.

Nadal’s outfits did look splendid. Some people were mad that he gave up his usual tanks and long shorts for the traditional polo and knee length shorts, but I think both of his outfits were great.

The one on the left was his 2009 Australian Open outfit. The middle one was from 2007 and the right one was from 2005.

Ugly Betty at NYPL

The seventh season of Ugly Betty was filmed outside the New York Public Library last Thursday. I am a poor blogger because I post this three days later. America Ferrara was wearing a yellow hat. I didn’t get a picture of her because Linda and I were getting shooed off the premise by set bouncers. Well, you can sort of see her through the camera on the right. She’s in the orange scarf.

Linda and I hung out at the New York Public Library. We are nerds so what! We took a tour that she found boring but I found fascinating. The building is beautiful and marble-ly. Every person who walked through the special collection rooms was a professor, student, or author writing the next bestseller. That’s what I like to think when I am inside the special library. Imagine if all public libraries looked like that.
