'Cars 2' Better Win with All Those Screens

Tim O'Brien

Dump It suggests there is more positive press coverage of economic news, etc. during a Dem presidency. Oh, wait, a major, expensive study just indicated that one. Hmmm.

- I had a Whitey Bulger once. I had it removed.

- When Bernacke talks, the markets dump.

- Think about it, the surge was roughly 30,000 troops. The draw down may get to 33,000. You figure why it was done now. In the meantime, the local 1644th will be shipping out to Iraq soon. They are located in Rock Falls. Send-off is July 3 and is open to the public. God Bless.

WEEKEND BO

"Bad Teacher"

"Cars 2"

Notes: I do not care for animated movies. There, I said it. Now, Justin Timberlake is becoming a fine actor and cool to watch. Actually, he is cool, but "Bad Teacher" is no "Bad Santa." You can make up your mind as to what that means. Since he shares my last name, I must mention "Conan O'Brien Can't Stop" is out this weekend. But, so does "Raw Faith" and "Leap Year 2011." One more I must mention: "Turtle: The Incredible Journey" is a must for nature folk. No word if the latest item from the comic book world will translate into the film genre. But, Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man, is set to die. Now, with the theater count of "Cars 2" look for it to easily win and if it doesn't, heads, or tires, will roll. If you are wondering if the recent Navy SEAL success translated, it did. "Act of Valor" is being set for a 2012 release right now.
