HEHHEHE, u re such a Britney fan orzone... congrats!:P

----------
OH, BTW, i ve just come from Frogs (a chain of pubs? or discos? or whatever the heck they are) .. man i was like 2 hours listening to reggae and some hiphop wannabe sh*t, then a bit of merengue.. i was like totally bored by all that, and then came the "trance" part...

U know what they played???
Dumonde - Sandstorm (i really like that song but c`mon!!! and all the kids were like "ohhhh""")
Safri Duo - Whatever song, i think playalive (but still who cares what song it is?? All safri duo`s songs are the same!!!!!)
And the last, some latin sh*t, no comments on that...
SOMETHING WORST: the "dj" played the original songs, and he didnt even mixed them, only waited till the song was like 1 second to finish and switched to the other that was just starting..

Speaking of Pearl Harbor -- a film budgeted at $135 million and scrutinized by countless Disney (DIS) executives -- nobody involved in its production thinks to question the scene in which Ben Affleck boards a train from Grand Central Terminal in New York to his airbase ... in England.


Ahhhhh... lol... what a classic!

I think the two of the dumbest business things, i can think of are the following

CBS selling the yankees to a consortium for 13 million, worth now almost a billion dollars

IBM selling Celestica to Onex for 300 million dollars, has become it's own company and has made gerry schwartz (ceo of onex), 1.4 billion dollars
