Does anyone else think..

Does anyone else think Sean Penn would make a great Popeye?!? I'm sure the role doesn't have enough pain, grit, or intensity for him - he forgets he played Spicoli once upon a time... Although, I do look forward to "Into The Wild" but mostly because I enjoyed the book 11 years ago and because I really like Emile Hirsch as a young actor. I think I'm looking forward to the soundtrack even more than the movie, though!

As interesting as it is, I remain puzzled as to why America has embraced this story about Alexander Supertramp and his death - tons of people die of stupidity and unpreparedness in the wilderness every year. He wasn't all that easy to identify with other than in a completely fantastic way - scary even. Maybe it was just because Krakauer wrote about him. Who knows...

Oh, and UH - the Red Sox ROCK! I totally want to marry Papelbon and make out with Ellsbury!
