Not This Time, Buster
Third — and this is really the only important thing to me — I’ve had it with these guys forcing their wives to stand up there with them.
Seriously. There’s no reason for it. It doesn’t help the family, it doesn’t help the state, it doesn’t help the country or the culture, and it surely doesn’t help the wife.

The Rent-a-Girl
What Ashley has down cold, no doubt, is the ability to provide lumpish, boring, self-absorbed men with the illusion that they are desirable, sexually capable and making her happy. In other words, she did a damn good job of pretending that she actually enjoyed whatever they wanted to do with her.
Ledger’s Joker Makes Dramatic Entrance As “Batman: The Dark Knight” Is Unveiled
Fans have been buzzing over the anarchic style Ledger brings to the role in the movie’s trailer, but the actor himself was utterly taken by what he saw of himself on screen, Roven said.
“He was just blown away by his own performance,” Roven said. “He said, `Can I see it again?’ So he was really, really thrilled.”
Bale _ reprising his role as the wealthy Bruce Wayne, who moonlights as the emotionally tormented crimefighter _ said he watched the footage Thursday with a heaviness of heart over Ledger. But Bale said he hopes the movie will serve as a testament.
“I hope that this can be seen as a celebration of his work,” Bale said. “He did a phenomenal job. It was a real joy working with the man. It was a joy knowing him, as well. I liked him a great deal, and I liked also how seriously he took his work.”
