Random thought: I liked Aaron Eckhart in Thank You for Smoking. I watched that one under protest and enjoyed it alot more than I thought I would.

[Dusty Chalk]

Why haven't I heard of some of these movies, like Volver and almost all of the best drama nominations.

[Smokey]

I don’t know, but sometimes it seem so hard to choose only one from each category as the best. Gald I'm not on the panel.

As a smoker, I probably will enjoy Thank You For Smoking (thanks for the tip). May be rent it this weekend.

And Dusty Chalk, you need to get out more

[Dusty Chalk]

Yes. Yes, I do.
