In the words of Shooter Flatch: "Identify!"
Thank you.

I have just one question...
Why is any studio still giving the Wayans brothers any money to make movies?

Jefferson and Congress Suffer Stinging Rebuke....
U.S. District Court Chief Judge Thomas Hogan issued a strongly worded denial of US Rep. William Jefferson's motion to return the property seized earlier this summer by the FBI in its search of his office.
Some highlights: Hogan rebuffs Congress' amicus curiae ("friend of the court") argument that the FBI's actions violated the Speech and Debate clause of the Constitution, writing that the amicus argument "contorts" the policies behind it; Hogan also writes that the principle of Separation of Powers is not threatened by the FBI's actions but by "...the position that the Legislative Branch enjoys the unilateral and unreviewable power to invoke an absolute privilege, thus making it immune from the ordinary criminal process of a validly issued search warrant."
Finally, Hogan concludes that Rep. Jefferson's argument "...would have the effect of converting every congressional office into a taxpayer-subsidized sanctuary for crime."
Ouch. Justice 1, Jefferson -5.

So you think your kung fu's pretty good, eh?
Just got done watching Shaolin Soccer. It is the counter-point to Gymkata's point. Seriously. They apply martial arts to sports. It's like Gymkata in reverse. Although, to be fair, Shaolin Soccer doesn't take itself seriously like Gymkata does. But there is pommel horsing with the soccer ball. Soccer in China is much more exciting than it is in the rest of the world.
If you liked Gymkata, you'll love Shaolin Soccer. Oh, and...I want to fight your brother...him, against me...let's kung fu!
