Gigli rhymes with really....
Normally, I don't believe good or bad hype about movies... In this instance the critics were dead on. I like all movies, but this movie, was the worst movie I have ever seen by far. It makes Attack of the Killer Tomatos look like a literary masterpiece. I couldn't even watch the entire film.
I don't even know what possesed me to watch it. It was on Encore and my Tivo picked it up. My point don't bother.

Terri Schaivo Case
Tomarrow is the date that was set to remove Terri Schaivo's feeding tube. I am wondering whether this will actually happen or not.

I don't think I would want to live on artificial support for fifteen years. The legal battle that has gone on is truly outrageous. I am deeply saddened that this has turned into a political issue for the anti-abortion movement. The Florida State legislature is again trying to intervene.
There had already been a court case and appeals which went to Ms. Schaivo's intent as to whether she would have wanted to be kept alive on artificial support. The finding was that her intent was not to be kept alive by artificial mean. Apparently there was also a financial settlement because she fell into the coma because of complications related to an eating disorder and was under the care of a doctor for some sort of fertility treatment at the time it happened. Whenever money is in play it brings out the worst in people.
Regardless I would never let my child be used as a political pawn. It's degrading and I think probably takes away from the life Ms. Schavo led. Who would want this for their child.
The real moral here is have a living will and name a medical power of attorney who would not benefit from your death at all... who would carry out your wishes regardless of those of your family.

Michael Jackson Trial
Wahoo! I found my password and am ready to blog once more. I have been watching the coverage of the Michael Jackson trial and regardless of whether he is guilty of molestation, doesn't anyone else find his behavior bizarre and disturbing. Inviting little boys to sleepover his house with him in his bed???
If someone not famous did this, they would be arrested and found guilty. Jackson on the other hand has an Supremo Attorney and of course after three or four days of cross examination Jackson's accuser's credibility has been tarnished. Wow, an experienced big-money trial lawyer made a fifteen year old look inconsistent. How can that be?!?
