Yes man : Part 2

The open letter caused a bit of a storm it seems but the good man was good enough to tell me he thought my criticism a little harsh. It proved to be a rather surreal exchange and my first ever celebrity argument !

An open letter to Danny Wallace after the creation of the film 'Yes Man', posted to Dannys site.

Danny, I have only ever walked out of two films....and am afraid that Yes man is one of them. How could you have allowed it to happen ? A terrible awful monstrosity of a film that betrayed every single part of your lovingly created book....I sat there with my mouth open with horror next to my girlfriend..both of us aghast about what had happened.....the old lady and the bl*wjob...dear god !!!!!!

So here's two of your fans letting you know that we felt pretty betrayed and hope that if you do let one of your most excellent adventures be used again that you either retain final signoff or have the 'once bitten twice shy' mentality to disown the whole thing. Personally I know at some point a remake will be made and this time it will do your book justice.With affection still....

It seems fitting that after a rather long hiatus during January that the first post of the New Year should concern two of our favourite things. Cheese. And Monopoly.

We were rather pleased to see that a new version of Monopoly has been submitted to Hasbro where cheese remains at the forefront of the game. Cottage cheese rightly takes the worst property in the game while Stilton takes the position of best at Mayfair.

But here I suspect ends the joy. What of the Chance cards and Community Chest ? Have they also been redesigned with the same care.

We hope so. It seems only fitting that a player should be rewarded handsomely if he or indeed she had won a cheese making competition.
