Maybe it's an early birthday present or something. So, I get to see two of my heroes live tonight... ;-)


I'm jealous! :mrgreen:

ME TOO! I was a huge Sampras fan back in the day. I think I even saw them face off in a Wimbledon final at some point...

When my family moved back to the Netherlands, we found our self in a tiny appartment on the third floor, with no elevator. The kitchen and bathroom are so small, with two persons it's really getting crowded :roll: . Not to mentioned the appartment is cold and the rent is high. We tried to get a new house, failed a couple of times (as some of you may remember), but yesterday we had good news. Next month we are getting the keys to our new home with more space and a garden. :happyjump:

Wow, Aikiweezie. Congrats! That movie has quite a list of names. Matt Damon, Kate Winslet, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jude Law, Lawrence Fishburn. Wow.

And I don't know if I'll get to work with any of them, :lol: but you never know! I wouldn't mind getting a look at Jude Law up close that's for sure.

I wish someone from one of the Star Trek Series, like Connor Trinneer maybe, would guest star on the TV show I work on.

Just the chance of seeing any of them is a great thing. Mmm, Jude Law. I was never a big fan of him when he was younger but as he ages he just gets better looking! I'm also a big fan of Matt Damon and Lawrence Fishburn.
