To me, yes! I got a keyboard that connects to the iPad which works really well. Also, MUCH lighter than my laptop which is gonna be great when I'm traveling.

Shocking flooding and storm damage in Texas. It is great to see so many people coming together to help their fellow man no questions asked.

Typical reaction to the news that Broccoli re-signed the 'Dangling Participle' as Bond through 2019.

I don't know anybody jazzed about Craig returning, I'm sure some are. I think if they recast it would make news for months, kind of a meh news moment with Craig re-uping.
Of course what would be funny is if Craig thinks he's back and Babs is signing another right now. Kind of like how she did Brosnan.

Too good to be true. Definitely far too good to be true. I've not been here in a while and so I've just caught up with this shocking! Positively shocking! news about Craig.

I'm not really surprised, just very, very disappointed. Something we have to remember is that although it is true that some people are starting to find movies like Spectre a bit tired and formulaic, I think in general most people are still infinitely more tolerant of DC in the role, even now, than we are. Don't forget that some of the critics slated Spectre only for its use of classic Bond elements. EON's reality distortion field (well I think Babs is the source of that field really) is still incredibly strong. Also as Kris mentioned earlier, as long as Purvis and Wade are still holding the pen, things ain't gonna change. Not really. I'm not bitter. Much.

If the UK press is to believed Beyonce is being lined up for the next Bond theme song. A source close to the singer is purported to have proclaimed this “the only project she is remotely interested in right now.” She’s said to have met with the film’s bosses, “and Adele told her how co-writing and performing a Bond theme gave her an amazing career hike.”

That's a big if.

By reputation Beyonce is a bigger headache to deal with than Craig I can't imagine this collaboration going well unless she really and sincerely wants to sing a Bond theme. As for Adel telling Beyonce the Skyfall song boosted her career I'm not sure how because she was at the apex of her career before and after Skyfall. Obviously it didn't hurt her, didn't lift her up from obscurity either. Extremely early for EON to be considering a theme song too, smells like a red herring to me. Still I'm sure Beyonce can phone in a perfectly serviceable theme (for the Craig's Bond movies) in under thirty minutes.

I love Bey, but no.

[Kristatos]

I love Bey, but no.

I could quite easily imagine her voice on a Goldfinger-style belter, but like Goldeneye said, it's way too early for them to choose a singer for the theme song.

MP, your town: Officials in San Diego County have declared a public health emergency due to the spread of the liver disease hepatitis A. Infections have killed 15 people and hospitalized nearly 400 more, with the homeless population hit hardest since the outbreak started last November.

Huh..odd how they keep that quiet while any time we have an outbreak of whooping cough(happens more than you would think) the lady from the health department is always on TV.

[bjmdds]

MP, it's all over the internet You did NOT see this on your local tv news the past 10 months?

[kater23]

Honestly?I don't pay much attention to our local news. Our news sources are given to hyperbole.They all are.

[bjmdds]

Where do you eat out? Hepatitis A is from food-born origins mostly and San Diego has become a hot spot it appears.

I did a Google search for "hepatitis a San Diego" and the top 2 results were from NPR and ABC, so the story seems to have gone national.

I just went to see Wonder Woman finally. Gal Gadot is the best superhero casting that I have seen to date, and boy oh boy, is she gorgeous The plot is similar to Captain America:First Avenger's storyline. I am not a fan of Chris Pine. His acting here did nothing to change my mind, as he is as stiff as the soldiers in March Of The Wooden Soldiers were, and he had no screen chemistry with the leading lady. The DC producers think dark background screen images and constant explosions are what people want, which is not the case. DC cinematography always appears as if it's night time, with few outdoor sunny scenes with bright colors. Marvel films are easier on the eyes to watch. All in all, Wonder Woman was enjoyable, better than Cavill's MOS, and Gal Gadot was great in the role, from her accent to her agility, to her beautiful looks
