A favor please … would you help complete a short survey?

Hello readers, What do you know, this is post #201 you're reading right now. When I shared this to guest blogger Rockerdad, he said to me, "when you started this six or so months ago, I bet you didn't think about making it to your 200th post." Right on, dude, I never thought I'd still …

Quick Casting Updates: Gerard Butler set to play Machine Gun Preacher

Talk about wish granted. I just emailed my friend Prairiegirl literally minutes before I found out about this, wondering what else Gerry Butler's got lined up for him after The Bounty. I know he's going to be shooting Coriolanus (well not shooting as with guns, though swords might be involved 🙂 ) with Ralph Fiennes …
