Randomness on a Friday

agt_spookyThe hubby and I had "date night" last night and we went to finally go see Public Enemies with Johnny Depp and Christian Bale. It's obviously a true story, so you know how it's going to end, but I just wanted to see the hotness of Depp and Bale on the screen together. :-) Overall, though, I was kinda disappointed in it. The trailer made it seem much more action packed than it was.
I almost felt sorry for Dillinger. He never hurt a hostage or employee robbing the banks (and only took the bank's money), valued friendship and loyalty and truly loved Billie. It was basically the Mob deciding they wanted to be top dog around and cutting Dillinger off from everyone he knew that ultimately got him, and all of his friends, killed. I'm certainly not condoning Dillinger's actions. He was most definitely a criminal. But this story made me a bit sympathetic towards him. And showed how truly inept the "Bureau of Investigations" was back then! I wonder if that's why Purvis quit them a year after Dillinger was killed. He took his own life in 1960, which I didn't know until this movie.

sn_24lover asked me if I could find out what the ratings were for Leverage's second season premiere. And I did!
It drew 3.9 million viewers!
Last night’s second-season premiere of LEVERAGE was watched by 3,890,000 viewers and 2,724,000 households. It also scored a 2.8 coverage household rating/2.4 national household rating. The episode outdelivered its first-season Live + Same Day average, with viewers up 24% and households up 20%. It also elevated TNT’s Wednesday 9-10 p.m. time period over the same night last year, with viewers up 113% and households up 70%.
Great job Nate Ford and Company! :-)

My buddy Andrew and I are getting ready to rock out tonight at the DEF LEPPARD concert! Woot! They're playing with Poison and Cheap Trick and I can't wait!
It reminded me of the last time I saw Def Leppard, then was inspired to write my Sam/Dean fic, Do You Wanna Get Rocked? :-)

And last but not least, I'm still experimenting with my new camera, so I took it outside and snapped a few pics of the flowers in our front lawn:
Man, I'm really pleased with this camera!
Ok, folks, gotta run. Have a great Friday!

LOL! That's an excellent plan! Especially since my computer at home is better than this one. :-)

That's what they played as their final song! I was definitely jamming for you. :-)
