I looked out my window and what did I see?

As I throw open the shutters of my hotel room window, I pause for a moment to take in the scene before me. It doesn't take long for my attention to be drawn to the neighboring DairyQueen at which sits a pickup truck with it's hood open. Inside the truck shoot flames like an oversize B-B-Q. I watched employees bringing cups of water or soda out to drown the fire (ha!) and even tried an extingisher to no avail. In the end the thing went out on it's own and this guy and girl went back smooching calmly until her coffee break was up.

This is even more amusing when you consider this all happened mere moments ago while in Copperas Cove, TX. I guess everything really is bigger in Texas.

Star Wars fans determined to watch at Chinese

I heard on CBS News over the radio that Star Wars fans are already lining up in front of Grauman's Chineese Theater in antcipation of the opening of Episode 3 - Revenge of The Sith. However ROTS is scheduled to Premire in the ArcLight theater almost a mile away. In fact, Lucas has specified the sceen in the complex revealing he doesn't like the "dome arena" in the ArcLight complex. The fans say they refuse to budge noting precident for the decision:
Twice before we’ve lined up at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre without confirmation that the films would play there. Twice before, we’ve been told it was going to play somewhere else. Hopefully, our luck olds out for a third time.
From liningup.net via TheForce.net
Variety.com comfirms that Pramount has scheduled "The Longest Yard" for screening at the Chinese theater a week after the release of Episode 3.From TheForce.net
