Tom Hardy Handles Reporter From LGBT Site When He’s Asked About His ‘Ambiguous’ Sexuality

Amazing how some reporters line up their questions in such a manner to see if the interviewee slips and responds to the question in a TMZ like moment. Look, Tom Hardy is an excellent actor, he has some movies under his belt that places him right there with some of the good ones out there now and in the past. Loved his performance when he teamed up with Joel Edgerton to do Warrior. I watchd the preview for the movie "Legend" in which Hardy plays a two part role. Yes it's new to him but he looks to have pulled it off fairly well. Keeping and eye out for this one when I see it for sale. Let me know what you think about this. Night All :) Source: The Blaze

Follow Up....

Wednesday night's Presidential Debate was definitely an event I'm glad I did not miss. I for one enjoyed watching Obama squirm while Romney kept throwing facts and figures at him. The both did a great job but I have to hand the debate win to Romney. He kept his composure and presented a firm respect for the president while handing him a can of whoop-ass. Next week's debate between the Vice President and nominee will be one I would much rather watch in its' entirety. I know for a fact Biden will find it within him to just be him and completely screw it up. Of course I'll post something after the event.

One of many...

Ok, sorry for the blank day there. I was catching up with work and stuff around the house. Well it looks like tonight is the first Presidential Debate on FOX. How many of you here will be tuned in to watch and see how it turns out?.......................................
Ok not sure if you guys might but I wanted to let you guys know that I will be watching part of it to see where they stand on our still increasing unemployment figures. Some of you might find this boring and choose to watch something else. The beauty of that is that you have the freedom to do so. :)
I will chime in some more tonight - going to do some quick reading on the ins and outs for today's news.

Getting caught...

When the TSA first became a household name I knew something good will come from this group as well as something bad. Well, they have caught a few individuals with "items" that might be harmful to others over the years and for that I thank them. Then all it takes is for one knuckle-head like the guy below to give the rest of the workers a really bad name. Everyone knows that most Americans/passengers only remember the negative experiences in the airport or on the plane. They never mention the great flight they had or the great service at the gate - all you get from them when asked is "It was ok". That's it. Now of course those who watch the video will imprint the thought that ALL TSA agents are thieves. Sad folks, it's really sad.

Hope and change...

Hope and change is what the Obama campaign rode on but unfortunately here in Toledo we seem to keep things the same without any strained thought. Once again we have another offer for the docks across from downtown Toledo and from what I've read/heard in other blogs (GCJ) and the many callers on the radio - it looks like we might be turning this down as well and continue to think that the city should be in the business of running a business. This city can't resist an opportunity to keep us in the depths of blight. We will dick this around for weeks, the group interested will change their minds and we will soon see matching plywood panels (like the many buildings in downtown) covering the windows of the empty restaurants and like clock work we will have the same stupid questions from elected officials i.e. "What can we do to better this city?".

Hoping for a change in the politics here in Toledo but I pretty much know the answer to that one.

PlayStation Home...

Well it's finally going to happen - Sony has decided to go ahead and release the online 3-D social networking service known as PlayStation Home. I remember when SEGA had their deal with certain cable companies when presenting the SEGA channel and yes I know that the two aren't the same thing but if you remember way back when the channel was introduced it lasted roughly a few months before it strted to go downhill. Some saw it as an issue with the family some said that the price that was being paid was too much especially knowing that the games offered weren't all that great.

Sony officials say they don’t expect an immediate payoff from Home. Their plan is to offer Home as a free software download to all PS3 users, and to charge gaming companies and other brands to create shops, sell goods, host events and advertise.

Now I know that I don't own a PS3 and I can mention about ten others that don't either because of the price for one of those bad boys but do they have something for those who don't have one but are devoted PlayStation fan?

It’s unclear what impact the delays will have on Home. The original plan was to have Home ready by autumn 2007. Sony Computer Entertainment chief Kaz Hirai announced the first delay in October, 2007. The company had expected Home to be ready by April of this year, but instead announced another delay. In late August, the company started inviting a limited number of users for a trial.

I guess only time will tell if this brand new venture for Sony wil help or hurt them.

Can you hear me now?

First Public Transatlantic Telephone Call (1927)
The telephone has come a long way since its earliest incarnation. The switches used to route phone calls, which were once electromechanical, have now been replaced by digital electronic switching systems that make features like "caller ID," "call waiting," and "call forwarding" possible. Cordless phones, cell phones, and satellite phones have also changed the way that people communicate. I can remember when my mom had a rotary phone in the kitchen. The thing weighed like 6 pounds and for some reason red was the popular color to have. At times I felt like Batman waiting for the red phone to light up when the Commish would need me to save the day. Also when calling the relatives during the holidays it felt like I was waiting in line during a huge sale right before the store opened. When calls were placed to Boston, my aunts and uncles had numbers that started with nines so by the time you got to the last number you were pretty bored watching the dial go back to the beginning. Phones have come a long way since it's birth especially when you compare the old with the new.

A merger worth the wait...

I just read and heard the announcement that Delta and United Airlines are in talks of merging with the American Airlines name staying and the corporate offices remaining in Chicago. I believe that with this merger the prices of tickets will be coming down in the near future. The prices before the holidays may not be tweaked enough to see a difference but I can safely say that they will run smoother and more efficient. With the praise of Southwest Airlines being a very well managed airline and the many kudos to the employees receive for treating their customers with respect and as a family member has other companies like the ones merging beefing up their measures and standards.

A continuous problem...

Although the video was done back in 2006 the contents are so true. Illegal immigration is and always was a problem. What we need to do and stick to it is seek those hiring illegals and place such a hefty fine that they will have definite trouble getting back on their feet. With that kind of penalty they'll think twice before breaking the law again in order to save a few bucks on employees and costs over all. We'll get this figured out sooner or later.

Boeing's bolts are short...

NEW YORK (Reuters) — Boeing's chief executive pointed the finger at Alcoa and others for the lack of bolts that has delayed the first flight of its new 787 Dreamliner and threatens its delivery schedule.
The shortage of aluminum and titanium bolts — known as fasteners in the aerospace industry — has been publicly discussed by Boeing for six months or so, but the problem is still not completely solved, Boeing CEO Jim McNerney said at an investor presentation Tuesday.

When the introduction of the Dreamliner was made a few months ago I was talking with my wife about the jobs and added work hours this bad boy is going to create. We jokingly said that even with the huge announcement made that the supplies for this baby would probably be short in supply. Well here we are a few down the road and now Boeing has to postpone their delivery date to who knows what. Well at least the jobs and workers will still be there waiting for these bolts to arrive.

Fallen Timbers...

No this is not a book title, the name on the title is that of a new complex that is being built in Maumee Ohio. I have yet to see it for myself but a friend of mine lives by there and he says that it is looking pretty nice. He has also mentioned that the new complex is built just across the street from one of the battle fields from the early wars. The image you see to the right is that of a monument that was erected in 1949. The outside mall will be a mirror image to the Levis Commons in Perrysburg Ohio. This complex is planned to open some time this year, it will probably open right around the late holidays - just in time for the rush of shoppers.

Can I Borrow $225,000?

The title to this post sounds a bit extreme but if I were to live in that part of New York then that's what I would be asking for because there is no way that I would pay that much for a parking spot.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Parking spaces in New York cost as much as $225,000 and could soon be going higher still, putting the cost for the prime spots above the price tag of the typical U.S. home price.

Manhattan real estate agent Tom Postilio said there is a waiting list of seven or eight people hoping to pay $225,000 for one of five private parking spaces that has been approved in the basement of 246 West 17th Street, a 34-unit condo development scheduled for completion next January.

If the money that these few people have is burning a hole in their pockets the please by all means send me the money and I will be sure to save you a spot here in Toledo if you were to visit in the near future. You can send it under a title like "The Bettering of Roman Fund". I would gladly take the money and make necessary improvements and I will also make sure to send a special thank you letter and an update of what's going on.
