That's right, it's almost December 10th, gang. Time is running out for me to figure out a way to see this movie without financially benefiting Miss Jolie in any way whatsoever.  I tried talking personally to the literally hundreds of producers of this film, to see if they liked my idea about filling out a form at the box office, when purchasing a ticket , that would allocate to whom, specifically, our ticket money would go. (See some insane post from May sometime.) Alas, all the hundreds of producers un-categorically agreed that this was a tedious, time-consuming idea that was not financially sound. (Not their exact words; their exact words were: "#&^%$#@*&&^% you!!")

So I was forced to part with $713,000.73 of my own hard-earned money to buy a pair of specially-designed glasses that promise to erase Miss Jolie from absolutely every single scene she's in in The Tourist. If I'd had an extra 20 bucks, they could have even wired the glasses to play one of those monotone, electronic phone-answering voices in my left ear every time Miss Jolie spoke her lines. However, I was lucky to come up with that final 73 cents; I simply didn't have the extra 20 bucks. But it's better than nothing...

Oh, just kidding. I've seen plenty of movies that had Angelina Jolie in them and I survived. Still, I'm feeling thoroughly grumpy about this. But oh well. Onward, gang.
