Greetings and felicitations.  I hope all of you are enjoying your summer 
vacations.

I just read the latest entry of The Official Schoolgirl Milky Crisis 
Blog, "Judge Dee", and it looks as if the movie will be great.

Tsui Hark (pronounced "Choi Hak", I believe) has an uneven record as a 
director, but I like Andy Lau, and it would be very difficult to go wrong 
with Sammo Hung (one of Jackie Chan's opera school "brothers"[1]) as the 
fight choreographer.
