Anyway, I'm not sure how I feel about that. So I bought citrus green tea at the grocery and left the sippy cup at home.
Coloring contest
Christine Pointeau is sponsoring a coloring contest to fund her next self-published venture, a four-volume set of trade paperback comics titled "A Cappella."
Pointeau's series "explores life's deeper questions, including the question of why we fear - and whether that's a good and, perhaps, even necessary thing. To bring her newest vision to reality, Pointeau is sharing another work "Stray Tales: Vol. 1" at a discount.
The contest, detailed at www.comicspace.com/fun4all/, is simple. Participants purchase "Stray Tales" at a 20 percent discount, and are then invited to color the pages in any medium and e-mail (scanned 75-100 dpi) copies to her home page at info@riverbynight.com.
Participants are limited to two pages per entry. The entries will be posted in the Coloring Contest Gallery, with one of every 12 participants winning a prize.
Christine Pointeau will personally judge the entries. There will also be a special display section for children's entries.
'War' and 'Bourne'
I love one-word film titles. I recently saw the trailer for this action flick and I'm revved. It pits Jason Statham against Jet Li and should be spectabulous - well, if you like Jason Statham and Jet Li films. Which I do.
If nothing else, it will be a serious rush. Release date: Aug. 24.
Next up, though: "The Bourne Ultimatum." Haven't read the books; don't want to read the books; definitely want to see the film.
Summer just seems synonymous with action flicks.
