Another episode of Ruez Ball…

Ever wonder who actually ownes the car companies of the world? Here’s a simple complicated chart that explains it all…

I like to see movies without knowing anything about them beforehand, and tonight I saw “Die Fälscher” or “The Counterfeiters” - which is hands down, one of the best films I’ve seen in awhile. I love WWII era movies and this dramatic, Austrian indy film was one of the best in that vein. The film is based on a true story and at times difficult to watch due to its Nazi subject matter… I don’t want to give anything away so just trust me on this one and go see it.

I also recently watched the English comedy “Death at a Funeral” which was absolutely hilarious and extremely well written. I highly recommend renting it on a night when you need to laugh until you cry. It was about time a good comedy came around too, I was getting a little sick of Will Ferrel’s recent, disappointing flops.

Here’s a video of the protest I took as walked by. I didn’t get very close due to traffic, but you get the idea. WARNING it’s kinda loud, so might want to turn your speakers down.

There are some pretty major anti-war demonstrations in DC today, one of which is right next to where I work at McPherson Square. I shot this photo (I apologize for the quality) from across the street around 10:30am. We’re just a few blocks from the white house. Hopefully by this afternoon it will draw a bigger crowd and I’ll try to post photos of those later.

Cool video from grizz mcstizz yet again… anytime you combine old school Michael Jackson with dancing aminals its sure to be a crowd pleaser.

Ok… as an update to my recent post “Karma’s a B*tch” I thought I’d run down the events which have led to a ‘karsmic shift’ (if-you-will) in my life. As it turned out, a few days after I lost my wallet (and canceled my cards) my mom received a phone call from a woman who had found my wallet. I had my mom’s business card in my wallet so the good Samaritan must have put 2 and 2 together; which is really cool because despite the inconvenience it was almost more the loss of the wallet itself which sucked… it has sentimental value. I’ve had it for over 6 years and it still performs like a champ.

Then… last night I bought a mega millions lottery ticket for the tuesday night drawing and lo and behold, I tripled my money. Uhhhh… yeah it was a dollar, but the extra $2 bought be a bottled water and half a bagel. So in light of these recent events I would say there has most definitely been a Karsmic shift in my Karma… now if I could only hit the ACTUAL jackpot, right?
