Nim's Island

A 2008 family adventure movie about an 11-year old girl
(Abigail Breslin) who lives with her father (voluntarily)(Gerard Butler) on an uncharted island, a la ("Swiss Family Robinson","Gilligan's Island", or "Robinson Crusoe", except Gilligan's characteras are shipwrecked, not forever on an island out of their own volition). Based on a book by author Wendy Orr, it tells of her seafaring daddy, and her hero, "male" author Alex Rover (Jodie Foster, a child star earlier in her own right and who deserves credit for recomending Jodie's star billing!), who's actually a female (as Jodie Foster's mention above should explain!). Gerard Butler, continuing a la Hilary Swank's 2007 "P.S.I Love You" a fantasy role, doubles as the fictional Alex Rover. (An Indiana Jones like adventurer.0

You'll have to watch the rest yourself. Released on April 11, '08. From both Twentieth-Century Fox and Walden Media, which has given us many family films in the last five or so years. Somewhat of a cross between the above island films, and many child themed adventures.
I saw 'Nim's Island'. Very good movie, and should be shown next time I go on the Princess Cruise to Hawaii!! Not to have that in a tropical themed movie program is a crime!

Amy Schumer

Born 1981, NYC(?), Amy Schumer, not to be confused with the other blonde comic Amy on the horizon, Amy Poehler, is a cute but filfthy, and very funny comic on Comedy Central, both on her own no-laugh track-or-live-audience sketch funny show, "Inside Amy Schumer" (GET your mind outta the gutter with that title, even with her type of material, or maybe there really is a sexual orientation) and recurring, appearances on roasts.

Did a comedy CD "Cutting" (don't ask about the reason for the title) and DVD/CD "Mostly Sex Stuff".

Looks somewhat like a Cabbage Patch doll. Is smokin' hot. IS VERY VERY VERY VERY funny.

And soon to appear and get rather wasted at a theatrical cinema screen near you in Judd Apatow's latest (forthcoming as of this,to be released in a week or two as of this writing) "Trainwreck".

ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS. And NOT, again, to be confused with the other East Coast Amy with blonde hair and funny humor who works with Tina Fey!
Mostly Sex Stuff is about Amy Schumer making jokes, well, about mostly sex!

Brandy

A fine girl, fine girl, what a good wife she would be. She walks through a silent town. Or so the hit song in US of 1972 goes.
"Sailors say Brandy, you're a fine girl, fine girl."

Hairspray

The movie by New Line Cinema, released on July 20, 2007, based on the Broadway Music by Mark Shaiman and Scott Whitman IN TURN based on the 1988 film by John Waters, about chubby teen Tracey Turnblad, who helps integrate a dance show known as THE CORNY COLLINS DANCE SHOW.
Nikki Blonsky, Amanda Bynes, Zac Efron,Michelle Pfeiffer},John Travolta, Christopher Walken,Queen Latifah}, and others are in it. A fun show. Favorite supporting chaarcter is Amanda Bynes's Penny Pingleton IMO.
1st. Guy: "Hey, it's "Hairspray". Who's your favorite girl? I ove Tracy".

Me:"Penny Pingleton"

Other guy:"Amber Von Tussle"The VILLIAN! But then she's a blonde, and we all know that blondes have more 'fun".

saggitarius

The zodiac sign following Scorpio. The sign of the archer. (Think Hunger Games or Disney/Pixar 's Brave. The centuar sign. Saggitariuses are many different moods. November 24 to December 22.
Jennifer Lawrence in Hunger Games} is an archer so on the spot, that though born August 15 she could have made a great Saggitarius. All she needed was to be born between November 24 and December 22 instead of August 15.

Famous Saggitariuses have no entire common trait, everyone from Donny Osmond to Walt Disney to Jim Morrison to AnnaSophia Robb are Saggitariuses as well as myself (even more of a reason to write this entry.)

YOLO

Like ILY, it has taken something meaningful and killed the complete shit out of it.
Hey baby, ILY because YOLO.

Hey baby, I love you because you only live once
