quote: "Ben Affleck, J. Lo Get Custom Video Game
NEW YORK - Mr. and Ms. Pac-Man, Super Mario and the princess, and ... Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck ?
Director Kevin Smith (news) is giving the newly engaged couple a custom-made video game to thank them for costarring in his recently wrapped movie "Jersey Girl," according to the New York Post. The game, "Jen Saves Ben," features an animated Lopez who must find and rescue Affleck, who has been kidnapped and chained to a warehouse wall. "J. Lo has to get him back but doesn't know where he's gone," said Brad Graeber of Texas-based Powerhouse Animation Studios, the company that created the game. As she karate-kicks her way through the game, Lopez must face an animated Smith, who totes a ray-gun, and an evil-robot Matt Damon. She gets three tries to save her fiance without being killed, and if she succeeds the pair is shown kissing. The game, modeled after a classic 1980s arcade game, plays a soundtrack of Lopez's music. " end of quote
Will these two ever stop being in the news? it was just a while ago that J.Lo announced her engagement to Ben Affleck - the sexiest man alive according to People magazine. Well judging from the latest trailer of Daredevil he is a hunk of a man!
he gave her a rare pink diamond engagement ring. This couple made it to the cover of this month's "hello" magazine of the brits and look like some kind of satire of and old 50s couple or something. The whole relationships screams "successful business partnership with unrelentless promotion" - a marketing person's dream but hopefully this works out. His first marriage and J.Lo's third. I think she's collecting a lot of virgin husbands with these first timers. If it doesn't work out this time...you think maybe she's the problem?

You guys HAVE to watch Die Another Day. I think it is the best bond movie you'll ever see! I know you'll have more arguments as to who is the better bond but in terms of action movies - this one is THE best! the director should be given a medal of honor for helping Pierce Brosnan act - finally! The man has always looked good in Remington Steele and all that but in terms of acting, and action he really sucked in the past three movies. But in this one? He finally has character! Oh and in terms of storyline, yes it is very good. Very convincing and more hot babes for all the men out there. For the women, Pierce Brosnan actually looks sexy! 
he always looked like a putz and pretty boy ("braindead") to me...in his bond films. But here - whoa! even if he's trying to inhale everytime he has a shirtless scene, and if he has more hair on his chest than on his head it somehow still looks good to me! 
and even the bad guys are hot! Like when you see Gustav Graves' arms in the fencing scene? ooooh baby!
plus the piercing eyes of your typecast asian actors (in this movie they are korean but if you see them in other movies they have played vietnamese, chinese, japanese...gosh! i don't think we ALL look alike to these westerners, do we?) Rick Yune was the arrested chinese guy in Fast and the Furious and Snow Falling on Cedars 
. Also in Bond is Will Yun Lee as the Colonel who reminds me of an ex boyfriend and the guy from Crouching TIger Hidden Dragon - i'm a sucker for thin chinese guys with long faces and long hair! but i got this pic of him from a scene in the movie 
but before you think this is all about mouth watering hunks and babes...honestly the whole movie was really good! the action scenes were so well put together and thought of. It made my heart jump every few minutes...and that means it's a great action packed film since I am such a skeptic and critic of action films. It better make my heart skip or else it ain't no good! Anyway, will get more info on that GENIUS of a director! till next time :-)

Still another reason why techno nerds and geeks will remain dateless...
— LONDON (Reuters) - Laptops have always been a hot item but a 50-year-old scientist didn't realize to what extent until he burned his penis.
The previously healthy father of two remembered feeling a burning sensation after he had been writing a report at home for about an hour with the computer on his lap.
He noticed a redness and irritation the following day but it wasn't until he was examined by a doctor that he realized how much damage had been done.
"The ventral part of his scrotal skin had turned red, and there was a blister with a diameter of about two centimeters (0.8 inches)," Claes-Gorn Ostenson, of the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, wrote in a letter published in The Lancet medical journal on Friday.
Two days later, the blisters broke and the wounds became infected and then crusted but after about a week the unidentified scientist was "healing quite rapidly."
Ostenson noted that the computer manual did warn against operating it directly on exposed skin but said the patient had lap burns even though he had been wearing trousers and underpants.
"This...story should be taken as a serious warning against use of a laptop in a literal sense," he added.
