What's hot this week at Watcherswatch? Why it's the Da Vinci Code, of course. Dan Brown's international bestseller opened in wide release Friday, May 19, 2006 and has already made $224 million worldwide in its first weekend, making it the second biggest opening weekend of all time.

We saw the Davinci Code last night. I really really enjoyed that movie. Ron Howard is a great story teller and he does it very low key. No Cgis, no big explosions just the story. Tom Hanks was good, Ian Mccellan was good and Paul Bettany was believable at the albino monk. The ending was spine chilling. I can't explain any more than that. And I read the book.

this sucks. Barry Bonds hit his 714th home run. that means he tied Babe Ruth on the all-time home run list. He's got second place now. Hank Aaron is next up, number one. Bonds doesn't deserve that record. Babe and Hank earned those frigging spots. Bonds is on steroids. He's cheating and winning. He is a disgrace to the sport of baseball and i hope he never gets those next few homers and reaches Hank Aaron's mark. it's not fair.nothing is fair anymore.

For some reason I was just reminded of the Monty Python's move The Holy Grail. There's a character, a Prince, whose father is trying to marry him off, and he keeps saying, "But Father, I only want to sing." Practical, real world considerations have no place in his life, he's an artiste who shouldn't have to sully himself with life's dirty little messes.

How would you feel if the entire world was watching you while you went through the motions of being a mother for the first time? Britney Spears has now been involved in three widely covered events caught on camera involving her first born child, Sean Preston.

Birch and Rosen (and their allies on the left) may be upset that Mary ’ s coming out didn ’ t cause Dick Cheney to switch parties. (Heck, her coming out didn ’ t cause her to become a Democrat either.) But, once they let go of their expectation that coming out makes one liberal, they might have the sense to praise this good man and his wife as exemplars of how parents should treat their gay children. And praise the Vice President as a model of political courage, willing to defy part of his political base to speak up for what is right.

Sfist comes out swinging, as the city plays host to Henry Rollins, Jello Biafra, and Jonathan Richmond in a benefit for the West Memphis Three. Of course, any good karma the Bay Area built up with that event was squandered when they booed the Canadian national anthem at a recent San Jose Sharks game. And if that's not skanky enough, someone rigged the World's Ugliest Dog contest! Oh, well, before they go to hell they'll have some Beard Papa cream puffs to snack on, so all is not lost.

I suppose the first thing I should say is a little about myself. My name's Cori, but I would prefer if I'm called Brooke. I'm a soon-to-be freshman, for there's still two days left of school. Using that information you've probably figured out I'm 13 or 14.C urrently, I'm 13, but one week from now is my birthday and I'll be 14. ^ ^ I'm female... that's a little obvious by my actions, and I have dark brown hair and brown eyes. Hmmm... what else, what else? For now, I don't know. ^ ^;; But I will say what you'll be seeing here. Of course there'll my thoughts on what's going on, but I'll also put up my poetry and sometimes dreams. (I have some interesting ones) So, ya got a good enough picture of me in you mind yet?... Good.

Nor did I need to hear about the brawl that had taken place earlier in the Cubs-white Sox game. When the White Sox catcher, coming into score, bowled over Michael Barrett, the Cubs catcher, Barret hauled off and socked him. An ugly brawl ensued and four players were ejected. What is with these prima donna catchers and pitchers? Shut up and play, will you!

T is devoutly religous. Her religion is yard sales, and Saturday is her sabbath. This is a good thing for those who are close to her... Today, she got me a tie by Tommy Hilfiger, my favorite designer, a leather-bound notebook and a bottle of Clinique lotion. (Yes, I not only wear a ridiculous amount of Hilfiger, I also do the Clinique three-step every day. That's why I'm so pretty.) I just read that when Hilfiger's not busy designing my threads, he likes to relax by getting in fist-fights with Axl Rose. The other day, I decided to get a bicycle. After today's

This is interesting reading on the thought processes and events that brought Jean Rohe to confront John Mccain on the stage of the New School. Remember, she's the student who took on Mccain in her speech at graduation. Bob Kerrey should be very proud of her. I especially like this section...

Draco suddenly lunged towards Lucius, swinging wildly, and managed to punch the older man in the nose. Lucius snarled at Draco and punched his son in the face, knocking the younger man down on his arse. Draco managed to kick Lucius ’ feet out from under him, knocking the other man down onto the floor, as well. They started to lunge towards each other again, but kitchen door slammed loudly, making them realise that Harry was no longer in the room. They ran after the brunette and caught him just as he threw floo powder into the fireplace.

Dcist reports on the shocking Catholic University's women's lacrosse team stripper scandal. We 're more surprised that the stripper in question was a dude, but that's just us. And an item that's truly shocking: Baltimore police arrest a couple for asking directions? Read through the comments on this post for elaboration on this case. Far less murky is the story on DC's blaspheming mayor, though we 're sure that some Dcist readers were using much harsher words than "goddamnit" as they watched the unsatisfying conclusion to "The West Wing"

Oh, and I failed my class at Normandale too. Which isn't so surprising. cause I was down at fucking MEPS (military entrance processing staion) during the final. I would've failed anyway. So, now I've gotta take another course. Again, because I don't have anything better to dojust another line added to the "Karol's a loser" proof. Shit. PS: Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is win. Not Another Teen Movie is not. - karol

Chicagoist (and their commenters) ask some interesting questions about the man who stands with a sign reading "FBI Agent Chris Saviano Stop Raping My Wife". He's not the only man standing up for his principles -- check out the guy who refuses to sell his home even as two high rise condo buildings went up on either side. One guy who can't stand up for anything anymore is the guy who died with $2.5 million of pot in his house. Speaking of pot (and not of yuppie hipsters), hey, Pearl Jam plays Chicago! And more women's sports trouble, this time hazing at Northwestern.

Seattlest angers the lord by mocking allegedly Christian band Mute Math, which must be why Pat Robertson's predicting a Pacific Northwest-centered tsunami. In an effort to prepare for the chaos that is sure to ensue post-wrath, they interview author Eric Blehm, who wrote a book on the case of missing forest ranger Randy Morgenson. Geez, if even the forest rangers are disappearing, we 're SOL.

On LE, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert implied that Jimmy Carter is not a serious person because he demands that the Israelis negotiate borders with Hamas. Wolf said that Hamas is a good outfit, as they haven ’ t engaged directly in terrorism for a year. Olmert said that they were supporting Islamic Jihad, so it was the same thing.

Today I planted watermelons! By the end of fall they are going to be 30lbs and delicious! Perhaps I will share them with you, friends list. Maybe we could have a watermelon eating party. Maybe I will make delicious watermelon flavored things: cookies, cakes and candies! Other than that I had a day with my lovely sister and boyfriend. Jackie and I almost look filipina now! Right now I am watching Frank Sinatra sing Brahm's lullaby and Gene Kelly dance around. I want to be there!

In the band were folks like Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, Steve Jordan (drummer from NBC's original World's Most Dangerous Band with Paul Shaffer); taking over vocals on his songs in the concert were Linda Rondstadt, Julian Lennon, Etta James and members of the band. Bruce Springsteen was interviewed about his own band's back-up gig at one of Chuck Berry's concerts some years back. Oh, and Chuck Berry was the sometimes difficult, man about the money honey, poet, singer, songwriter, and without a doubt, a mesmerizing character throughout the footage.
