The consistently interesting Peter Weir chooses his next project: Shantaram, with Johnny Depp. “The story follows an Australian heroin addict who escapes a maximum-security prison and reinvents himself in India as a doctor in the slums of Bombay. His attempt to find medicine for his destitute patients leads him into counterfeiting, gunrunning and smuggling.” But will they be trying to tempt him, because he comes from the land of plenty?

This is one of the many reasons I love visiting your site, Kevin. Even amid all the (plentiful) news that produces sighs of disgust and ‘oohs’ of fanboy-istic intrest, there are entries like this that just make me laugh out loud. And, the shifting header image is always fun. “The Dude” dancin’ down the steps in bowling and babe dreamland is just the perfect pick-me-up. Thanks for this site, man.

Hey, thanks for stopping by, and for the kind note. 🙂
(Also, adding images to the header has become one of my favorite “illusion of efficiency”-type procrastination devices, so keep an eye out for new additions.)
