This Is For The Movies

As all of you know, or SHOULD know, Quantum of Solace is coming to Singapore cinemas tomorrow. And yes, i'm watching it! Unless I have to go to tennis. But this time, i want to play tennis with Uncle Joe. Because:
1) I haven't been having lessons with him for about a month or so and he's not making so much money to support his family.
2) I'll most likely have to go for tennis lessons with Coach Matthew which is not exactly fun. Unless God blesses me again and allows rain to fall upon this unholy ground.
Anyway, just in case you're not so update-y. Here's an insight of 007's new movie Quantum of Solace; Betrayed by Vesper(Eva Green, seen in the first Daniel Craig as James Bond movie) the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and M (Judi Dench) interrogate Mr White (Jesper Christensen) who reveals the organisation which blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined.

Forensic intelligence links an Mi6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where a case of mistaken identity introduces Bond to the beautiful but feisty Camille (Olga Kurylenko), a woman who has her own vendetta. Camille leads Bond straight to Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a ruthless business man and major force within the mysterious organisation.

On a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond discovers that Greene, conspiring to take total control of one of the world's most important natural resources, is forging a deal with the exiled General Medrano (Joaquin Cosio). Using his associates in the organisation, and manipulating his powerful contacts within the CIA and the British government, Greene promises to overthrow the existing regime in a Latin American country, giving the General control of the country in exchange for a seemingly barren piece of land.

In a minefield of treachery, murder and deceit, Bond allies with old friends in a battle to uncover the truth. As he gets closer to finding the man responsible for the betrayal of Vesper, 007 must keep one step ahead of the CIA, the terrorists and even M, to unravel Greene's sinister plan and stop his organisation.

ELECTION OF THE DECADE :Americans dumber than we thought?

That's right, almost the entire world knows of the upcoming election between U.S.A. President nominees, John McCain and Barack Obama.

Despite Hilary's sudden "surrender" of almost being the FIRST Woman President of the United States, all the more votes for Mr. Obama. I think most of the world is rooting for Obama, but what about Americans?
Do they think there will be much of a difference? As in a positive way? Well, if they DONT vote for him, at least the rest of the world knows that Americans are dumber than we thought. Here's something I found in Wikipedia...

Obama met his wife, Michelle Robinson, in June 1989 when he was employed as a summer associate at the Chicago law firm of Sidley Austin. They began dating later, became engaged in 1991, and were married on October 3, 1992. The couple's first daughter, Malia Ann, was born in 1998, followed by a second daughter, Natasha ("Sasha"), in 2001.

Obama plays basketball, a sport he participated in as a member of his high school's varsity team. Before announcing his presidential candidacy, he began a well-publicized effort to quit smoking.

Obama is a Christian whose religious views have evolved in his adult life. In The Audacity of Hope, Obama writes that he "was not raised in a religious household." He describes his mother, raised by non-religious parents (whom Obama has specified elsewhere as "non-practicing Methodists and Baptists") to be detached from religion, yet "in many ways the most spiritually awakened person that I have ever known." He describes his father as "raised a Muslim", but a "confirmed atheist" by the time his parents met, and his stepfather as "a man who saw religion as not particularly useful." In the book, Obama explains how, through working with black churches as a community organizer while in his twenties, he came to understand "the power of the African-American religious tradition to spur social change." He was baptized at Trinity United Church of Christ in 1988.

Isn't he awesome?? A cool wife (according to The Straits Times, more people prefer Michelle's taste for fashion than McCain's wife.), two beautiful girls,Christian and enjoys basketball. Why wouldn't you vote for him?!

Statement of the Day:If you're voting for McCain, think AGAIN.

LET'S DO THIS AMERICA!!
