Al Qaeda beheaded the South Korean. Bastards.

So I started reading my long-awaited Bill Clinton book last night and I wasn’t five pages in before my eyelids started feeling heavy. What separates this from say “Harry Potter” novels is that in “Harry Potter”, it’s an adventure where you can’t wait to turn the pages and find out what happens. In this case, you read about Clinton’s life and say “Oh yeah, I remember that.”

Last night, the American Film Institute presented their list of the Top 100 Movie Songs of all time. The full list can be found here. No surprise, is that “Over the Rainbow” was #1 and “As Time Goes By” was #2. It seems that each time AFI does a Top 100 list, “Wizard of Oz” and “Casablanca” rank at the top. Some other selections include...
35- “America” (West Side Story)
40- “Fight the Power” (Do the Right Thing)
58- “Gonna Fly Now” (Rocky)
74- “Rainbow Connection” (The Muppet Movie)
80- “Springtime for Hitler” (The Producers)
85- “Come What May” (Moulin Rouge)
93- “Lose Yourself” (8 Mile)

The Mets are one game over .500! They are now a winning team! Enjoy it while you can folks...
