--Well, either my schtick sucks, or this is what I get for not regularly posting. Damn. :) Well, by coin flip...Bonnie and Clyde move on to Round Two with an upset of the No. 1 seeded Atticus Finch. A huge upset via the seedings, but the AFICS (American Film Institue Championship Series, sponsored by Toyota) system is flawed, as we know.

NEXT MATCHUP: Noah Cross, villain from "Chinatown" vs. Harry Callahan, better known as "Dirty Harry." VOTE!

--I'm sorting through all sorts of music, trying to find the "special events" songs that are necessary...special dances, entry songs, etc. It hasn't been easy, that's for sure. :) But I'll get through it, no doubt. :) We reserved a block of rooms at the nearby hotel...details, for those who are planning on coming in from out of town (and others), are available, but they will be included in your invitations as well, so no need to jump the gun yet. :)
