Saavy mate...

Hello, well it has been too long since we last spoke. I just recently came back from an action packed weekend in Atlanta, Georgia with Abizer and his family. The wedding was a very amusing one. And the city was much more fun. We went to the headquarters of Coca-cola and CNN. I tried cola from different parts of the world and let me say not all were that tasty. The one from Italy was raunchy. Ewww...

At CNN we saw how they read the teleprompter and how the weather map works. Its very similiar to the invisibility cloak that Harry Potter uses. The trick is that the computer is designed so that when it sees the color green it replaces it with the current weather map. So the weatherman just stands in front of a green wall and moves his arms in a general direction to indicate incoming winds and fronts. But if he wears the color green by mistake he becomes invisible since his shirt for instance is now gone and replaced with the background. So you will only see his head and legs... Just like Harry's invisiblity cloak... So cool.

Besides that, I have been up to no good watching movies and movies. I recently saw Superman II. Damn is he hot... growl. He can save me any day. The movie had great visual effects and a pretty good overall theme. Also, they had the original Lex Luther star as the arch nemisis so that was nostalgic. But the best part was Superman is a daddy.. Louis Lane the mother.. and a too hard to deny cliffhanger ending. So hopefully we will get to see our hot superman in man tights very soon. I also saw the 12:01 showing of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest on Thursday. I thought it was okay. Nothing to get my panties in a bunch though. Johnny Depp was handsome as ever with his to die for accent and killer good looks. But Kiera was blah and so was Orlando who didn't quite bloom in this sequel. The movie dragged on and on for hours with a story plot that many of us have forgotten the finer bits to so it made no sense. Not to mention the annoyance we all had to bear listening to the pirate clad individuals sitting behind me.
