I am on my way to catch a train to Seoul and pretty excited, well for the most part I am. The reason I am going is a Dr appt.

"I never want to get comfortable with what I'm doing. I don't think I can grow if I'm comfortable. So I want to push myself a little bit further." -- Nicolas Cage on looking for challenges.
MY ALICE HAS TAKEN ME TO WONDERLAND Oddball, hellraiser and Oscar-winning Hollywood A-lister, Nicolas Cage admits that at long last, life's just great By Rick Fulton
NICOLAS CAGE used to be Wild at Heart - dubbed the new Jack Nicholson because of his heavy drinking and womanising.
But the actor who once ate a live cockroach on screen, claims he feels like "a new man" thanks to his third wife, former waitress Alice Kim.
Now the man who was married to Elvis's daughter Lisa Marie for only three months is happily married with a new three-month-old son he's named Kal-el, the birth name given to his comic book hero Superman.
Gone is the edgy, slightly manic actor and in its place an older (he celebrated his 42nd birthday last Saturday) and happier star.
He said: "I've gone through some difficult times over the last few years and then things suddenly turned around for me when I met Alice and a lot of the fog just cleared away.
"She's so down-to-earth and she's made me a better man by being who she is and getting me to stop flying off in all directions just because I'm some sort of strange celebrity.
"Life is a lot easier now."
Nicolas, nephew of The Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola, met Alice in February 2004 at a sushi bar in Los Angeles where she was a waitress. They were engaged by the April and married in July of that year. He was 40 and she was only 20.
Nicolas, whose mother Joy suffered from clinical depression and was institutionalised when he was six, has been married twice before.
And he showed romantic impulsiveness in both cases. When he met Patricia Arquette in 1987 (in a Los Angeles deli) he told her he wanted to marry her only hours after their first meeting.
He insisted that she put him on a quest to prove his love for her so she wrote a list of impossible requests on a napkin.
They included a black orchid, an autograph from reclusive author JD Salinger and a wedding dress from a Tibetan tribe.
The actor promptly presented her with a spray-painted orchid and a letter from Salinger. She was rightly spooked and declined his offer of marriage, but they did marry eight years later. His first marriage only lasted for nine months although they didn't divorce until 2001.
His second marriage was to Lisa Marie Presley in 2002 - but they separated after 107 days.
However, Nicolas insists - despite his track record for quick marriages - this one is for keeps.
He said: "From the very first moment I met Alice, I knew I was in love.
"And a few days later, I knew she would make a great partner. Alice travels everywhere with me. We have an extraordinary understanding and way of being together.
"I'm so happy today and I can honestly say that I've never felt better than I do now. Alice is the best thing that's ever happened to me and I don't mind admitting that she even chooses my clothes. I love it.
"I feel like a new man."
Nicolas, who has another son, Weston Coppola Cage, from his relationship with model Kristina Fulton, is adamant that the 20-year age gap between him and his young bride is nothing to worry about.
He said: "I've been involved in terrible relationships before where I was a lot closer in age to the women I was with and look what happened.
"So it's not a question of age.
"Although maybe it is, maybe I needed to be with someone much younger and with such a fresh and open perspective on the world.
"Who knows why some people can make us feel so good about ourselves and about everything. But Alice does that for me."
With his private life on an even keel, it seems his somewhat ropey acting career is also - at last - taking a turn for the better.
Cage's work in the Eighties was unparalleled from Al Columbato in Birdy and H.I McDonnough in the ragged comedy Raising Arizona to Moonstruck and Vampire's Kiss (the cockroach-munching movie).
Then in 1990 came the career-defining Wild at Heart. Directed by David Lynch, it set the tone for his work in the Nineties including his Oscar-winning role as Ben Sanderson in Leaving Las Vegas.
But then the rot began as Cage side-stepped low-budget edgy roles for action movie status with films such as The Rock, Con Air and 1997's Face/Off, his last really decent movie.
Since then dross has been the order of the day from snuff movie 8MM to Gone in Sixty Seconds, Captain Corelli's Mandolin, Windtalkers, Matchstick Men and even 2004's big box office hit National Treasure.
But last year Cage got his mojo back. Playing an arms dealer in Lord of War proved he was willing to take risks and new film The Weather Man shows he still has more than big budget hot air in his acting cannon.
As Dave Spritz, a downcast weather forecaster for a major Chicago TV station, he gets some of his predictions wrong. Soon Spritz becomes a joke to his public, his ex-wife (played by Hope Davis), his kids and even his father (played by Michael Caine) whose approval he desperately seeks.
Indeed, it's a marvellous sad-sack role in which Cage's character is seen regularly pelted with food, drinks, and other objects by strangers whenever they recognise him in the street or when they speed past him in their cars. But the morose Spritz decides to take charge of his life and reclaim some semblance of honour when he takes up archery and becomes a more go-getting kind of guy.
Nicolas said: "It's a film that touched me enormously.
"My character is someone who's trying to adjust to being divorced and putting his life in order and, given that I've been through two divorces, I could absolutely relate to his situation and the kind of struggle he goes through.
"At the time I agreed to do The Weather Man, I was going through a divorce (from Lisa Marie Presley), so I was trying to figure out how to take that difficult reality and turn it into a positive.
"After we split up I was feeling adrift and vulnerable and I sort of plunged myself into my work on The Weather Man. Reading the script I thought, here's a parallel to my life.
"Sometimes I choose movies that can help me like therapy - you do something positive with a negative emotion.
"So I took this well of feeling I had and funnelled it into Dave Spritz. Then I met Alice and everything came together for me real fast.
"I wasn't expecting it, I wasn't expecting happiness, but it just landed on me and I'm not looking back. It may sound corny, but my life is really beautiful right now."
.. our lovely man is so sensitive and he deserves happiness & stability in his life..
