I recently rented a little film called "The Shop Around the Corner". Have you ever heard of it? Well, it just happens that it was the inspiration for "You've Got Mail". "The Shop Around the Corner" stars Jimmy Stewart and Margaret Sullivan AND it takes place in BUDAPEST!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know about you, but I find Budapest much more appealing than New York!
Both movies are very cute, but I have to admit that the original won me over, it is so cute and funny. I don't know why Hollywood remakes things, it should just re-release the wonderful classics they have sitting in the vaults.
Oh, and by the way, the Vancouver 2010 Olympics are only HOURS away. I am so excited. This is the only time I am patriotic. I swear, I am ready to break out the red, white and blue!!!!!!!!

Hob-Knobbing
I think I met a lady from the IOC (International Olympic Committee). It was kind of cool. She told me that she was from Mexico. I am only mentioning this because I think I just saw her on TV.
Chicago has put a bid in for the 2016 Summer Olympics. I think it is very cool and I am very excited. I hope they get the bid. Wouldn't it be cool!? It seems fitting. They once hosted a World's Fair. I actually think the World's Fair would be cooler, but I would settle for the Olympics!!!
