In the Hamptons now, debating my regretful dichotomy of beautiful scenery vs. being surrounded by a bunch of piano dorks. The beaches are overrated, the gas is expensive, there is nowhere to get a drink past 10pm, the town is dead, and I'm constantly forced to rehash old repertoire.

Saw Batman Begins the other day - why the craze amongst the critics? I think we're being sucked into ultra low expectations. It was better than Batman 3 and 4, albeit I'd sooner rape an unsuspecting goat than rewatch those filthy pieces of cinema trash. Christian Bale? Whatever. He's no Michael Keaton.

Also saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith - this is definitely the best bad movie of the year. Thouroughly entertaining.

Anyway, for all you wondering if I dropped off the face of the planet, I'm unable to go online here save between the hours of 6pm and 9pm - and on a 56k modem at that.

The Hamptons. Any beach in LA would spit on this shit for breakfast.
