What is wrong with this statement?

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- In the place where Dreams Come True, more than 1,000 immigrants from dozens of countries will realize their dream of becoming United States citizens during a Naturalization ceremony on the Fourth of July at Walt Disney World Resort. The ceremony will be presided over by Director of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, Emilio Gonzalez.

Emilio ..... Gonzales???? Head of the ... (gulp) ... USCIS??? Boy, can you imagine the pressure on this muchacho?

In other news ... people, saw Angelina Jolie on The Daily Show. It is illegal to be this unbearably beautiful, phenomenally talented and piercingly brilliant! Talk about a coup. She IS beauty and brains .. she absolutely defines it. I quote Jon Stewart - "Can the burqah contain your hotness?"

Song of the Moment: Bol Na Halke Halke (OST - Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan & Mahalaxmi Iyer, Music: Shankar/Ehsaan/Loy) - Rahat's songs in Hindi films just get better and better - especially 'cause he adds so much of his own element to the song, musically and vocally. Each one of his songs, right from Paap and Kalyug, to Omkara and Namastey London, has been a brilliant balance of catchiness through a hook melody, and some great singing.

Tracked a killer mix of the Bacardi Mojito song, the song from that ad that just makes you wanna grind some mint, and sip a cold one. (No, its not a song. The loop was produced specifically for the commercial, and is referred to as 'The Muddle'). Check out the original, here, and the remix, here.

Yup.. those are my Disney people.. doing anything they can to wipe out the upper-class white man's guilt about 'song of the south' from 50 years ago.. :)

Isn't it sick that I treat all Disney news as if it's my personal business, just because I worked on their business for 2 years? :P
