Ah non (to quote another stylish French headcase)! Sad to see @Gael_Monfils's excellent #RolandGarros adventure end. Sigh. #FrenchOpen #ATP

Star Trek - Into Darkness
Star Trek - Into Darkness: Lotsa fun. Loved Pine & (for once) Cumberbatch, but Quinto owned it. Still nowhere near as good as Wrath though.

US Open Moving to ESPN
Sadly this could be the death-knell for #Tennis here. @usopen moving to @espn means less exposure to new generation. http://t.co/m5YSmc7WC8

Heat Squeak by Bulls Eastern Conference Rd 2
Whew! #Heat & #LeBron squeak by never-say-die #Bulls. However, I'm getting a distinct 2004 #Pistons vibe from the #Pacers & #Grizzlies #NBA
Southland Canceled
#Southland: That incredible season finale was apparently the series finale. Emmys for everyone esp Cudlitz & King. Best TV drama (incl HBO)!

Iron Man Three
Iron Man Three: Shane Black went ahead and made himself a meta-superhero movie. I laughed all the way through to the awesome end credits.
Angelina Jolie NYT Op-Ed

The Great Gatsby
The Great Gatsby: Deliriously over-the-top...but I loved it! I'm a sucker for Baz Luhrmann. Great stuff from DiCaprio & newbie Debicki.

Federer Crashes Out at Madrid
Sadly, #Federer losing (so sanguinely at that) before the #Madrid QFs for the first time means the end is nigh, quite nigh. Sigh... #ATP

Bulls Stun Heat in Game 1
Uh-oh. Here we go again! Under-manned #Bulls stun the #Heat! At least this time I have faith #LeBron will pull through. He will, right? #NBA
