Well, it was too hot to walk, so I just sat in front of a fan and gazed out the window for a while. Then I made a marmite sandwich and some tea and listened to the Sunday omnibus edition of the Archers. Then, in an attempt to cool off, I went with Mark to see The Simpsons Movie. We had a pact we had to see it together, as no conversation we have ever had has not mentioned the Simpsons it seems. It's a bit like Seinfeld, almost any element of life can be related to an episode of either the Simpsons or Seinfeld.
The cinema wasn't too cool, but just cool enough. With a big popcorn and an almost empty brain, I sat down to watch. We laughed ourselves silly... especially the first half. There were some great lines, great scenes and the animation was gorgeous - interesting to see it on a wide screen, and the colours were very rich.
There were just glimpses of many charactes, and Mr. Burns and Smithers had a very small scene indeed, but I suppose there was just a limit to how much they could do. I hope they do another one, and judging by the success of this, I bet there will be.
I love Matt Groening and J.K. Rowling. Wow, the Simpsons movie and HP7 in one day. I tell you, my inner child is very happy indeed.

Is it true what they say, that a hot drink on a hot day actually cools you down? I've never had the nerve to test this theory, and can only tolerate a drink that is over the rocks when the temperatures soar.

Well, it certainly works with tea. A cup of tea will cool you on a hot day, warm you on a cold day.
I've never known you not to have the nerve to try anything.
I lose my nerve when my comfort is at stake...LOL...
Like, hey man, like that Simpsons movie really sucked big time. That Homer just pisses me off, right?
