The Daily Me - Placenta Accreta

Thank you, Placenta Accreta, for signing up for The Daily Me. Our search engine has combed the Internet for up to the minute news items that fit the profile you have so painstakingly filled out for us. Then, we weighted the probability that you would be interested in these articles against forms which showed what people with tastes similar to yours have liked reading in the past. Then, really? The Internet contains a whole universe of information and, except for a brief quote from an obscure right-wing author, all you seem to care about is entertainment news? Were you aware that Republican candidates for President were debating all over the place? (And, yes, it is as messy as it sounds - somebody should really paper train these puppies.) Do I have to remind you that tornados and other extreme weather conditions are making the mid-West look like mincemeat? And, with all this - and so much more - going on, all you want to know about is the new Spongebob Squarepants movie?

As Oscar Wilde truly said: the Internet is wasted on Internauts.

Enjoy,

review I must admit that I am getting sick and tired of reading post-apocalyptic science fiction. The world I made is a place of beauty, yet so many writers can think of nothing better to do with it than see how many different ways they can make it appear dark and miserable! It makes me wonder, sometimes, if any of you are actually fully using the imaginations I gave you!

Okay. Sorry about that. Sometimes, I find it hard to control my outbursts. :-) It's a shame, really, because I actually enjoyed reading Suzanne Collins' book.

No More Days Of The Condor

Cliff Robertson, who won an Oscar for playing the title role in the movie Charly, has died at the age of 88. Robertson was perhaps best known...best know to the current gen...gene...genera...tion of filmgoers as - umm - somebody's father - oh, you know, that guy in the spider suit. Hee hee - it was fun to watch him swinging around like that. You know? Un hunh. I...I have to get back to the bakery now. Okay? Okay.

You Could Always Give The Table To The Street Person Outside The Window When You Decide To Go

This year, I decided that I was going to spot a star at the Toronto International Film Festival if it killed me! I rented a table at Caren's Wine and Cheese Bar, across the street from one of TIFF's theatres, and camped out there for a week before the film festival actually started. You know - just in case.

Three days into TIFF, this was the scene outside the Cumberland Theatre. Where was the lineup. Where was the red carpet? WHERE WERE THE STARS?

Eventually, one of the waiters explained that TIFF screenings were now being held at the Bell Lightbox, and that the focus of the festival had shifted from Yorkville to King Street. Well, didn't I feel like - never mind. You don't want to know what I felt like.

I'll stay here another day or two - you never know. Besides, the cheese is pretty good.

Patrick Is Rumoured To Be Holding Out For A Bigger Rock To Sleep Under

EXCLUSIVE: Brad Pitt has decided not to act in the film Spongebob's Eleven after a study showed that Spongebob Squarepants cartoons made it harder for children to study.

"Yeah, well, I got a family now, don't I?" Pitt stated. "I got children, and I gotta watch out for 'em. So, yeah."

Director Steven Soderbergh expressed regret that Pitt would not be part of the production, then added: "But, we've still got George, Matt, Bernie, Casey and Squidward, so we're good to go."

The Ferris Wheel Of Babel

EXT. BENCH IN HYDE PARK - DAY

Two little old ladies, MABLE and SUBOTOS, are sitting on a park bench, throwing loaves of bread at pigeons. A piston engine on a cart sits off to the side of the bench.

MABLE: I hear there's gonna be a Ferris wheel built in Toronto.

SUBOTOS: Tonto? Wasn't he the sidekick in that TV show "Goodbye Stranger?"

MABLE: No, that was a song by the band Superman. Toronto. It's a city in Canada.

SUBOTOS: Oh. Why would anybody want to go there?

MABLE: To see the Ferris Wheel they're gonna build.

SUBOTOS: We've already got a Ferris wheel in London.

MABLE: Theirs is going to be bigger.

SUBOTOS: Really? Is it going to be bigger than the one in Las Vegas?

MABLE: You bet!

SUBOTOS: Will it be bigger than the one in Beijing?

MABLE: You mean, the other Ferris wheel that has been planned but not built?

SUBOTOS: Exactly.

MABLE: Well, it wouldn't be much of a tourist attraction if it wasn't bigger than that, would it?

SUBOTOS: Good. Bloody Communists! Half the seats on their Ferris wheel are saved for representatives of the proletariat and the other half for senior members of the Communist Party. You have no idea how long the lineups get on a Saturday afternoon!

MABLE: I can imagine.

SUBOTOS: I'll bet you can. (pause) Somebody really thinks we'll want to go to Toronto to look at a big metal circle with seats?

MABLE: Maybe it's a joke.

SUBOTOS: If it is, it's subtle.

MABLE: Oh, yeah. Very, umm, subtle. Very subtle, indeed.

SUBOTOS: I never did understand the Canadian sense of humour.

MABLE: (fading out) They're a little...off - Canadians - but they mean well.

SUBOTOS: (fading out) I suppose...
