Choke
I must admit I have been going to some great movies lately. Last night I went to see Choke, the movie based on the novel by Chuck Palahniuk, the writer of Fight Club. I haven't read the book though it is on my To Be Read list as I got a free copy at a book fair I went to a month ago. The movie was...

ROCKNROLLA
Today a friend and I went to see the new Guy Ritchie movie, ROCKNROLLA. I knew the movie was going to be one where you really had to pay attention or you might get lost. This movie was great.

Grey's Anatomy
I was so excited when the previews were airing for Grey's Anatomy. The preview had so many shockers in it, I made sure I had nothing going on last night. And once again the writers delivered. The show was filled with heartache, happiness and plenty of drama. All of the characters have new story...
