Sorry about not posting in the last few days. My mommy has been working on updating her jewelry site and therefore she has been hogging up the computer. I told her that she is denying a handful of people of the wonderfulness of the PPP who have been going without news for the last few days but her response was something like, "Um, want to eat, have a roof over your head and snazzy sweaters, blah, blah, blah?" So I let her hog the computer but I do recommend you check out her site and give her your comments. www.nrjewelry.com
Cannes Film Festival started today and although I asked mom that we report live from Cannes this year we didn't exactly make it. A cheesy "French Tuesday" party was the closest we got to Cannes this year. Oh well! There's always next year.
Well this year at the film festival there was a special selection of a documentary about Midge the one eye cat called "The Great Escape". Midge will soon be the toast of Cannes when the documentary starring her debuts at the festival.
Almost every day, Midge's owner Martin Humphreys jogs around his village in England and one time, Midge joined him. After that, every time Martin went jogging, so did Midge. But Martin soon began to notice that when he tried to pass her she would not be beat. Martin decided it was time for Midge and him to settle this once and for all. He decided they would battle it out in a great race and he made a documentary about it for $2,000. It was entered into the Cannes Film Festival and accepted! The trailer for the movie is below.

Martin wants Disney to make a full fledged feature film starring Midge. ‘I want Disney or Twentieth Century Fox to come and take a look at the film.'
'Ideally, I would like them to come to Wrose and make a full-length feature film about her. I have in mind the outline of a children's adventure, in which Midge would face all sorts of challenges.
'It would involve car chases, explosions, and a lot of fun. I also have an idea that in the end Midge would take on the Olympic 100m champion Usain Bolt while hundreds of kids cheered on.
'She would make a great heroine and I really think it could be one of the greatest children’s films of all time,’ he added.
Midge couldn't make a personal appearance at the festival as her requests for the Royal Suite at the Carlton and all the catnip in the land was denied so Martin is representing her.
Martin's idea for a movie sounds great so it's quite guaranteed that Disney will not do it. Knowing Disney they will probably option the movie and then turn it into a pre-teen girl named Midge running through the town chasing cops in a mid-drift shirt and hot pants.
Anyway I wish Midge well even though she is a cat and I hope their documentary wins a prize.
Well, I am off to the park as the sun is out and it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood as Mister Rodgers use to say.
I hope you have a great start to the weekend! Chow for now!
