cp just sent this link to me. i won't even paraphrase. you must look through it yourself. i crapped myself.
i am not the world's hugest brad pitt fan. yes, i realize that he is very attractive. and i think he picks awesome roles to play. but i have plenty of boyfriend cards, and he isn't one of them. he's too obvious.
HOWEVER
troy is a totally new ballgame. he is a totally buff, hot piece of ass that does nothing but look good. and he does it VERY VERY WELL. almost all of his spoken parts are trite manure but, man, does he polish the turd. his very nude scenes and the brief moments of "greek skirt being brushed up in battle revealing a generous portion of upper thigh" are well worth a movie ticket.
other than that, i have warned brianne not see this. she is convinced that she is going to marry orlando bloom, but she will change her tune after this. he is a TOTAL WEINIE!!! Surely because of this, Patrcik will insist that they go out and see it right away.
on the scale of "heinous" to "totally bitchin", i decide it requires a new scale. i give it a "totally hot and sexy, buy as soon as it is released on DVD and have a hot date with your TV"
from cp & andy:
"CREED CALL IT QUITS
Multi-platinum Florida rockers CREED have decided to break up after nine years together. Three members, including guitarist MARK TREMONTI, have formed ALTER BRIDGE with MAYFIELD FOUR singer-songwriter MYLES KENNEDY, and will release "One Day Remains" in August. Frontman SCOTT STAPP has recorded a solo track for an August compilation inspired by the film "The Passion of the Christ," and he plans to make his solo debut with Canadian band the TEA PARTY.
Reported from Rolling Stone. This turning out to be a great day.
Andy"
btw, I also heard on Mancow this morning that Stapp is a real tub-a-lub too. A bad day for Creed is an absolutely AWESONE day for humanity.
One of Matt's favoritest Chicago chefs, Grant Achatz, is getting his own digs. This is so not fair. This guy is only 30, has worked under Thomas Keller, has been an executive chef (which he became at 27!!!), and has won a James Beard award [info via Chicagoist].
I think Matt is going to want to marry him. He lurves him and wants to have 50 million of his babies. Which means I have to start cooking my own food. damn.
