"I wanna eat his children! - Praise be Allah!"

So I had my first celebrity sighting / world premiere experience yesterday thanks to the debonair, stylish, calm, and always cool Mike Tyson. [responsible for the quote above]

A documentary about everyone's favorite ear-biter premiered last night and I was one of the many in attendance, and Tyson not only showed his tattooed face on the red carpet but even got up and said a few words before the movie showed. A bit of a mismatch, right? But it was a excellent collision of the brute and the beautiful, the rough and the refined, the crude and the classy....(I could go on like this). 

It wasn't exactly Indiana Jones (premiering tomorrow, and tickets are harder to find than that the lost ark - "Top. Men.") but it was a pretty cool time just being there for a world premiere and having people say a few words. 

Other than that its been harder than i thought to get wi-fi (which the French pronounce "wee-fee") so penning these posts has been tricky, but like those annoying "_______Movie" spoof films spawned by Scary Movie, they will continue to be produced with little regard for the depths of good taste.

more to come....
