- The gym. Yep. Tonight's the big going back night. We'll see how this goes.

- Sean's bachelor party. What the hell. I'm a 'Best Man', that means I get to throw parties and give speeches. I must think about this all some more, of course.

- My cousin Steven's wedding is at the Wynn. Sweet! I like that place. Need to arrange for the time off right now and I should seriously look at airfare.

- She-Ra, Wonder Woman, Ripley and Princess Leia and why they were my heroes when I was growing up. (All for different reasons.)

- Lady Shiva's reaction to Renee Montoya as the Question. No, I don't know why I'm thinking about this in the back of my brain but I think it was in my dreams.

- Eating habits and changes I'm going to attempt to make. So far not too bad but I need to solidify the ideas a bit more. Nothing spectacularily new here, just trying to put things together in a way I can accomplish.

- Entitlement of fans - Some people can be real bastards. Just because you don't like something someone created doesn't mean you get to tear down the person. Just because someone doesn't create fast enough, doesn't mean you should hate them personally. Just because they went a direction with their work you don't like, doesn't mean you get to yell at them. I know it isn't true across the board but most of the writers (comics and novels) and actors I've met have been nothing but nice people I'd love to be able to hang out with. They meet thousands and thousands of people a year in sometimes strange and awkward situations - something I'm sure would drive me nutty. I'm amazed any of them remember who they are after all of that, let alone anything else.

- The intesnse sense of deja vu I'm having /right now/. Woah. Maybe I suddenly know kung-fu.
So.

There is news on the Wonder Woman movie.

Brent Strickland and Matthew Jennison have turned in a script treatment. From MTV's Splash Page: "We certainly took liberties on our spec 'Wonder Woman,' but we also used a ton of stuff from the comic," he (Strickland) said. "My feeling is that ultimately something iconic like 'Wonder Woman' needs to be a hybrid of the source material and the writer's original inspiration. We feel an obligation to the fan base not only to treat the property with respect, but also to make it fresh -- to reinvent the story without reinventing the wheel, so to speak." I agree with him that you need to keep things full of adventure but I don't know how I feel about 'liberties'. Some I'm good with. Some I'm not. *shrugs* I have no idea for now.

Tony Bedard and Scott McDaniel, along with Stanley Lau will be taking on the Great Ten in a book due in November.

Smallville's season premiere will have a BSG cast member on it - Alessandro Juliani.

I'm tempted to go to Portland to see a movie. It will be in Portland and then in BC but it isn't showing here. And it seems I missed it at Comic Con, which is frustrating but shows how easily that can happen.
