EAT, PRAY, & LOVE in America

Monday, August 16th, 2010

Ran across this and thought it was a must read.  Like me if you want to find your inner ’self’ like the woman in EAT, PRAY, LOVE; instead of traveling abroad you can do it here in America.  Sometimes we see other countries before we visit our own. With many cultures and religions in this melting pot, you can discover your EAT, PRAY, LOVE in another way.

Taking a year to travel the world might be a dream for many desk-bound adventurers, but the reality is that such a trip — even trimmed down to just three weeks — could easily break the bank. So if you don’t have the time, money or passport for Gilbert’s itinerary, eat, pray and love your way through these domestic destinations. You’ll still come home satisfied.

Get your American EAT, PRAY, and LOVE HERE . Have you seen the movie or read the book? THOUGHTS?

In the sequel to Avatar, director James Cameron says he will change it up a little.  The movie will take place in the oceans of Pandora.  He even talks about the third sequel. Cameron is obviously genius. Sequels always slip below expectations, but I have a feeling he will not fail. Cameron will wow with a message…again.

Monica Mingo, of MonicaMingo.com, will be premiering her short film at the American Black Film Festival in Miami this year. I can already say: I WANT TO SEE MORE. I think I have a gist of what it may be about, but I can’t wait to really know. If Mingo does create a trailer I’ll pass it along. We wish her the best at the Festival!

See No Evil, Hear No Evil

With the awesome play now feature on my Netflix I am able to watch many films instantly.  New releases and certain popular films, you must rent, but that’s alright still many to spare.  Randomly I decided to watch “See No Evil, Hear No Evil” starring Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder.  The movie is funny as hell and  together they are the perfect comedy duo.  Imagine being a blind shit-talker, who acts like he can see,  and your friend deaf nice guy, who acts like he can hear.  Sounds ironic? This is why you should watch it. The story line is not the best, but compared to modern comedies this trumps it. I miss real acting, good movie scripts, and Hollywood!  This all should return in due time…I Hope!

Real Life Crime Scene Cleaners

I finally got a chance to watch “Sunshine Cleaning“, a dramatic comedy, that follows the life of a single parent that went from cleaning houses to cleaning murder scenes. You never think of the jobs people choose to do in this world and being a crime scene cleaner is NOT one. Hey! Whatever pays the bills. They always say, be a nurse and you’ll never be without a job. Be a crime scene cleaner and you will definitely never be without a job.

CurrentTV uploaded a documentary based on the lives of Crime Scene Cleaners. Check it!!
